第七佛受請成益中有二:初昇殿益、後「爾時世尊」下昇座益。前中二:先受請昇殿、後「爾時」下明其益相。前中二:先昇此界殿。無邊相海,是佛相莊嚴;令天王喜等,正明受請意。即昇殿等明機緣契合也。二「如此」下結會十方昇殿圓滿。二益相中三:初嚴處益,十句可知。二「爾時」下明天王得定益。於中,初不亂正念正明得定,下依定增善。增善有四:一進心、二喜心、三菩提心、四總持。三令天王憶自宿善歎佛。顯處益中二:先此界,謂歎前夜摩十佛之前十如來,寄顯漸深遠,過前故也;理實通於一切諸佛。後結十方。第二昇座益中二:先此界昇、後十方昇。前中二:先昇座、後益相。益相中,先法益,謂初現同三世佛之身;二應機說法;三明法身無著。下明事益及結,並可知。

In the seventh [section], on the Buddha accepting the invitation and effecting benefit, there are two parts: first, the benefit of ascending to the palace; next, from 'At that time, the World-Honoured One' onwards, the benefit of ascending the seat. In the first part there are two: first, accepting the invitation and ascending to the palace; next, from 'At that time' onwards, clarifying the characteristics of the benefit. In the first of these there are two: first, ascending to the palace of this realm. The boundless ocean of marks is the Buddha's adornment of marks; causing the Heavenly King to rejoice and so forth directly clarifies the intent of accepting the invitation. Immediately ascending to the palace and so forth clarifies that capacity and conditions correspond. Second, from 'In this manner' onwards, concludes and unites with the ascending of the palaces in the ten directions being complete. In the second part, on the characteristics of the benefit, there are three: first, the benefit of adorning the place; the ten phrases can be known. Second, from 'At that time' onwards, clarifies the benefit of the Heavenly King attaining samādhi. Therein, first, undistracted right mindfulness directly clarifies attaining samādhi; below, following the samādhi, good [qualities] increase. The increase of good [qualities] has four: 1. the mind of progress, 2. the mind of joy, 3. the bodhicitta, 4. dhāraṇī. Third, causing the Heavenly King to recall his own past good [deeds] and praise the Buddha. In the benefit of manifesting the places there are two: first, this realm—that is, praising the ten tathāgatas prior to the ten buddhas of the preceding Yāma [Heaven], relying [on this] to manifest what is gradually deeper and more distant, because it surpasses what preceded; in principle and actuality it extends to all buddhas. Next, it concludes with the ten directions. In the second part, on the benefit of ascending the seat, there are two: first, ascending in this realm; next, ascending in the ten directions. In the first there are two: first, ascending the seat; next, the characteristics of the benefit. Among the characteristics of the benefit, first are the benefits of the Dharma: that is, first, manifesting a body identical to the buddhas of the three times; second, expounding the Dharma in response to capacities; third, clarifying that the dharmakāya is unattached. Below, clarifying the benefits of phenomenal events and the conclusion can both be known.
