7.24

Fifth, encouraging the sons of elders to leave household life, in two parts: first, division into sections; second, sequential explanation, in four parts: first, encouraging them to leave household life. Jingxi says: Regarding "now being able to meet and hear, etc.": the sons of elders were hearing the merits of leaving household life in the Mahayana for the first time, and had never been moistened by faith in the Buddhadharma. Hence we know that having heard merely means hearing what was just spoken; those who have not heard are like the three hundred million people.
