經曰「爾時人民」以下，第五演梵音眾得益。此中三：初在華林、次城邑益、後靈山益。初中九：一攝眾、二觀欲、三尋因、四彰師、五義學、六歸力、七合奉、八授道、九得益。初有十類眾：一人民眾、二王宰眾、三淨智眾、四長者眾、五外道眾、六大臣眾、七天宮眾、八太子眾、九彌勒親族眾、十無名眾，准可知也。

From the sūtra passage stating, "At that time the people," onward is the fifth, proclaiming the brahma voice so that the assembly attains benefit. Within this there are three parts: first, in the Flower Forest; second, the benefits in the cities; and third, the benefits at the Vulture Peak. In the first there are nine: 1. gathering the assembly; 2. contemplating inclinations; 3. searching into causes; 4. making manifest the teacher; 5. doctrinal learners; 6. taking refuge in the power; 7. collectively upholding; 8. conferring the Way; and 9. obtaining benefits. In the first there are ten categories of the assembly: 1. the populace; 2. kings and ministers; 3. those of pure wisdom; 4. elders; 5. non-Buddhists; 6. great ministers; 7. heavenly palace assemblies; 8. crown princes; 9. Maitreya's kinsmen; and 10. nameless crowds; they may be understood accordingly.
