Sengliang comments: From 'the noble Saṅgha of all Buddhas' to 'practising the upright Dharma', it explains abiding in accordance with the Dharma. The Buddha takes the Dharma as his teacher, and because the Dharma is permanent, the Tathāgata is permanent. The Saṅgha has three meanings; this explains the meanings of the harmonious Saṅgha and the disciple Saṅgha. From 'cannot be observed' to 'inconceivable', this signifies the permanent Saṅgha. 'A good and bountiful field of merit for all sentient beings' explains the meaning of the field-of-merit Saṅgha.
