2.2

第八《大集經》以守護正法為宗者，為此經在於欲界向上、色界向下安立寶坊，集諸人天。上下二界天人魔梵，及八部鬼神龍等，及他方菩薩皆就寶坊。諸鬼神等有不往者，四天王放熱鐵輪遂之令往至佛所，如來悉勅令守護正法。眾魔王中唯有一箇魔王不順佛勅，待諸眾生成佛盡，我當發菩提心。

Eighth, taking the protection of the true Dharma as the central tenet in the Mahāsaṃnipāta Sūtra: This is because this sūtra sets up a jeweled hall above the desire realm and below the form realm, gathering all humans and devas. The devas, humans, Māras, and Brahmās of the two realms above and below, as well as the eight classes of ghosts, spirits, dragons, and the like, and bodhisattvas from other directions, all assemble at the jeweled hall. If there are ghosts, spirits, and the like who do not go, the Four Heavenly Kings release glowing iron wheels to pursue them and make them go to the Buddha's place, where the Tathāgata commands them all to protect the true Dharma. Among all the demon kings, there is only a single demon king who does not obey the Buddha's command, [saying]: 'Wait until all sentient beings have fully attained Buddhahood, and then I shall generate the bodhicitta.'
