Commentary: Fourth: the Buddha conferring prophecies upon others. As for the expression 'the Buddhas,' it shows that the Dharmas of all buddhas are identical, hence it is not only one buddha. It is also because in the past they had received conversion under other buddhas; otherwise, if it were one buddha, how could it say 'various [buddhas]'? Thus it was said before: 'having in the past heard from various buddhas the Dharma expounded by expedient means.'
