78.4

Regarding the Commentary's 'a person of merit reaches the nose' and so forth: this is a passage from the *Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa*. 'Or reaches the Brahmā world' is from the *Lotus Sūtra*, 'Chapter on the Transcendent Powers of the Tathāgata': 'At that time the Tathāgata extended his broad and long tongue, which reached up to the Brahmā world, or covered the trichiliocosm.' This is as the *Amitābha [Sūtra]* says: 'Extending his broad and long tongue, completely covering the great trichiliocosm, and speaking truthful words,' and so forth.
