妙法蓮華經文句 2.152

2.152

「供養」者，通三業皆是供養，別論卑謹虔禮名恭敬，至念專注名尊重，發言稱美名讚歎，施其依報名供養。此中文略，具辯應如《無量義經》廣說。天厨、天香、天鉢器等即是供養。大莊嚴菩薩及八萬大士，合掌叉手即是恭敬，一心瞻仰即是尊重，說七言偈即是讚歎。今論眾集，指彼文者，彼經眾集，說法竟，儼然不散，即彼座席仍說《法華》，故知三業供養不得有異，用彼廣釋，此略，於義無咎。

Regarding "made offerings": comprehensively, all three karmas are offerings. Specifically, humble, attentive, and devout bowing is called "revering"; focused concentration of utmost mindfulness is called "venerating"; uttering words of praise is called "eulogizing"; and giving material rewards is called "making offerings." The text here is brief; fully stated, it should be as extensively explained in the Anantanirdeśa-sūtra. Heavenly delicacies, heavenly perfumes, heavenly bowls, and vessels are indeed offerings. The Bodhisattva Mahāvyūha and the eighty thousand great beings pressing their palms and crossing their hands is indeed revering; single-mindedly gazing up is indeed venerating; uttering seven-character gāthās is indeed eulogizing. Now, discussing the gathering of the assembly, that text is cited because the assembly gathered in that sūtra, having heard the Dharma preached, remained dignified and did not disperse; and from that very seat [the Buddha] went on to preach the Lotus Sūtra. Thus we know that the offerings of the three karmas cannot differ; using that extensive explanation to interpret this brief text incurs no error in meaning.
