### [7.62](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.7.62)

「世尊！我等今者樂說譬喻以明斯義」下，第二、廣序領解也。又開為三：初、請樂說；二、正說譬；第三、合譬。上來法說略序釋迦一期大小二教事猶未盡，今舉喻廣述無量事及始終法門，方得顯迷悟之情及歎佛功德也。「以明斯義」者，譬文雖長但明得失義。初二章為失，後章為得，設譬明此二義。「譬若有人」下，第二、開譬。今以三門釋譬喻義：一、來意門；二、少多門；三、領解門。

> From 'World-Honoured One! We now would take pleasure in speaking a parable to clarify this meaning' onward is the second part, extensively recounting their assimilation of understanding. It is again divided into three: first, requesting to take pleasure in speaking; second, properly speaking the parable; third, applying the parable. The preceding Dharma explanation briefly recounted the matters of Śākyamuni's lifetime teachings of both Hīnayāna and Mahāyāna without exhausting them; now, by raising the parable to extensively set forth the immeasurable matters and the dharma-gates from beginning to end, they can reveal the sentiments of delusion and awakening and praise the Buddha's merits. 'To clarify this meaning': although the text of the parable is long, it merely clarifies the meaning of loss and gain. The first two sections are loss, and the latter section is gain; the parable is set up to clarify these two meanings. From 'Suppose there was a man' onward is the second part, opening the parable. Now, the meaning of the parable is explained through three sections: first, the section on the purpose; second, the section on fewer or more; third, the section on assimilating understanding.
