妙法蓮華經玄贊 9.580

贊曰：下第二段解持讀誦益。長行中有七：一行者功德無邊能生種智，二行者為見報身淨土，三行者即為頂戴於佛，四行者即為已起佛塔僧坊供養，五行者兼行六度自利疾得種智，六行者兼行六度利他為趣道場，七行者所在處應起塔供養。此即初文。有二：初聞〈壽量〉起無上慧，後於一部起聞持等能生種智，當必得故。

The Eulogy says: The second section below explains the benefits of upholding, reading, and reciting. In the prose there are seven points: first, the practitioner's limitless merit can generate omniscience; second, the practitioner is regarded as seeing the reward body and the pure land; third, the practitioner is regarded as bearing the Buddha upon their crown; fourth, the practitioner is regarded as having already erected buddha-stūpas and monastic quarters for making offerings; fifth, the practitioner concurrently practices the six pāramitās for self-benefit and swiftly attains omniscience; sixth, the practitioner concurrently practices the six pāramitās to benefit others in order to advance toward the bodhimaṇḍa; seventh, wherever the practitioner stays, a stūpa should be erected and offerings made. This is the first passage. It has two parts: first, hearing the 'Span of Life' chapter generates supreme wisdom; second, with respect to the entire sūtra, generating hearing, upholding, and so forth can generate omniscience, because it will inevitably be attained.
