大般涅槃經集解 4.81

4.81

Sengzong comments: This is the fifth section. From here it enters the verses, running for eleven and a half stanzas. His joy has two meanings: first, he rejoiced because his offering was accepted through his understanding; second, he rejoiced because he was approved of by the great assembly. Baoliang says: Cunda's joy has three reasons: first, he rejoiced because the Buddha accepted his offering; second, he rejoiced because, the perfection of generosity being fulfilled, he entered the noble stream; third, he rejoiced because he was praised by the multitude.
