無量壽經連義述文贊 3.27

3.27

On the sūtra's words from "Thereupon the Immeasurable Honoured One" to "circumambulated three times and entered through the crown of his head," the Commentary states: This third [part] is the verse on hearing the Dharma and generating wisdom. It has four parts: this first is the manifestation of signs to initiate it. "Illuminating everywhere" is because his deliverance is without partiality. "Encircling his body" is because the accumulated virtues are complete. "Three times" is because he necessarily embraces the two great beings. "Entering the crown of his head" is because he is supreme among the Three Honoured Ones.
