2.79

釋「藥王」中,三緣從後醫王義當於藥,前二雖別,是則佛世滅後皆立行生善。「火淨」者,從燒身立名,文中且以世治表出世治(云云)。「欠七菩薩」,未檢經。

In explaining 'Bhaiṣajyarāja' (Medicine King): among the three conditions, according to the latter, the king of physicians corresponds to 'medicine'; though the former two differ, both during the Buddha's lifetime and after his extinction they establish practice and generate good. 'Fire purification' takes its name from burning the body; in the text it provisionally uses worldly curing to symbolize world-transcending curing (etc.). 'Lacking seven bodhisattvas'—the sūtra has not yet been verified.
