Regarding the commentary's statement “Since it universally concludes with the clouds of bodhisattvas assembling, it shows all the more clearly that the praise above belongs to those from the ten directions”: That is, if they were the retinue of Jinadhvaja, why, after the praise, would it conclude: “In this bodhimaṇḍa of the four continents, through the Buddha's spiritual power, bodhisattvas numbering as many as the dust motes in a sea of a hundred million worlds from each of the ten directions came and assembled”? Thus we know clearly that the above was merely the bodhisattvas of the ten directions praising the Buddha's virtues. The Chapter on Manifesting Characteristics is concluded.
