3.22

經曰「東方諸佛國」至「往覲無量覺」者,述云:此後、正頌。有二:初、頌勝聖共生。即十五頌也;後、頌諸佛皆歎,即十五頌也。初又有三:初、勝聖皆生。有二:此初、頌東方往生也。覲者見也,諸侯見天子曰覲是也。

On the sūtra passage from 'Buddha-lands in the eastern direction' to 'go to pay homage to the Immeasurable Awakened One': The Commentary states: This latter [part] is the verses proper. There are two [parts]: first, verses praising the shared rebirth of superior noble ones, which are fifteen verses; later, verses praising all Buddhas' shared praise, which are fifteen verses. The first also has three [parts]: first, the superior noble ones all being reborn. There are two [parts]: this is the first, verses on rebirth from the eastern direction. Jin (覲) means to see; feudatories seeing the Son of Heaven is called jin.
