Jingxi says: "These possess three points of intent, but fall short of the first; what harm is there in \[it belonging to\] the whole chapter?" Regarding "it was the compiler of the sūtra": because words like "at that time" throughout the various sūtras all belong to the compiler, \[this explanation\] was not adopted. As for the next school's explanation: how could Baoji fail to state that he addressed the Buddha? For him to recount Jingming in front of the Buddha would be an arbitrary act, saying Vaiśālī and so forth. Second, "The present interpretation fears..." indicates that it is not a rigid attachment. This is the Great Master's humility. Regarding "Ānanda ... preached for his sake": this is one among the four vows of the Sūtra on Repaying Kindness, as already explained in the exposition of the general prologue. Since he vowed that it be preached again, by examination we know that at that time the Buddha preached this chapter again for Ānanda's sake, so that upon reaching the compilation, it was recited right before. Jingxi says: "Therefore we know that the present interpretation profoundly grasps the intent of the sūtra, because the words regarding Ānanda's original vow and so forth have an authentic source." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.42](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4.42) - [Next: 4.44](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4.44) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779~en-mt.4.43) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4.43](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1779.4.43) · Pramāṇa
