妙法蓮華經玄贊 8.378

8.378

贊曰：下十八頌半，分二：初十六頌半頌前所說，後二頌明能說、能受二俱益相。初文有三：初一頌頌難信解勿妄宣傳，次四頌頌法身舍利中人近菩提，後十一頌半頌說法儀軌。此初也。

Eulogy: The eighteen and a half verses below are divided into two parts: first, sixteen and a half verses reiterate what was explained before; thereafter, two verses clarify the characteristics of the benefit shared by both the one able to explain and the one able to receive. In the first text there are three parts: first, one verse reiterates that it is difficult to believe and understand, and must not be recklessly proclaimed; next, four verses reiterate that among those who take the Dharmakāya as śarīra, the person is close to bodhi; thereafter, eleven and a half verses reiterate the protocol for expounding the Dharma. This is the first part.
