維摩經略疏 5.39

5.39

From "Aniruddha" down: second, respectfully declining as incompetent. The text has four parts: first, respectfully declining as incompetent; second, explaining the reason for his incompetence; third, directly narrating the event of being rebuked; fourth, concluding his incompetence. As for the first part: it was truly because in the past, when a Brahmā king asked about the divine eye, he answered according to what he had attained, which led to his being rebuked so that he did not know how to respond. How could he be competent to convey the command and go inquire after his illness?
