'At one time': At one time receiving the convocation of sound and light; at one time gathering at the śāla grove; at one time revealing the Tathāgata's secret treasury; at one time hearing the permanent giving of nirvāṇa; at one time hearing and upholding it with veneration; at one time abiding in the secret treasury and entering the meaning of nirvāṇa; at one time having heard the two characters 'permanent abiding', awakening parents, ancestors of seven generations, and all sentient beings, whether enemies, kin, good, or evil. This is how 'at one time' commonly prefaces all five chapters.
