The above concludes the direct explanation of the ten gates of dedication. Within the thirteenth section of the extended outline, from "Through the spiritual power of the Buddha" onwards, it is further divided into five sections: first, the section on the Buddha's majesty shaking the earth; second, the section on the devas raising offerings, where the devas raising offerings has two senses: first, offerings of incense, flowers, banners, and canopies; second, offerings such as the devas singing praises, paying homage, and emitting light; third, from "Just as in this Tuṣita heaven" onwards down to "all were likewise", which is the section concluding that all the ten directions are identical; fourth, the section where the Bodhisattvas Vajradhvaja, sharing the same name throughout the ten directions, all come to witness the Dharma; fifth, explaining the section where the Bodhisattva Vajradhvaja contemplates the assembly and speaks verses.
