大般涅槃經疏 4.13

4.13

Next, the verses have two parts: first, one verse summarizes the praise above; next, three verses make the request. In the first text, "You": "you" refers to Cunda, versifying the "name" above. "Born in the human realm" is one of the six difficulties, versifying the fulfillment of the vow. "Surpassing the sixth heaven and equaling the Brahmā King" in requesting the Buddha to reveal the eternal: this versifies virtue. "I and everyone": the assembly versifies renown. Above, they praised with one voice; here, it says "I and everyone." As if having a head to delegate the discussion below, it seems as though Mañjuśrī is the leader of the request.
