說無垢稱經疏 2.110

2.110

贊曰：此文有六。五、明德屬，五百童子並姓離咕毘。六、明蓋數，各持一蓋。七、明雕飾，七寶莊嚴。八明來至，往菴羅林。九明進上，各奉世尊也。持一蓋者，顯各各起四無量心䨱眾生故。七寶嚴者，顯修七聖財助嚴無量故。七寶者，《佛地論》說「一、金；二、銀；三、吠瑠璃；四、牟婆洛揭婆臘，舊云珊瑚；五、羯雞呾諾迦，舊云車渠；六、褐濕摩揭婆，舊云馬腦；七、赤真珠，赤虫所出，或珠體赤。」餘文雖說，隨方所重種種不同。經言七寶，以此為定。奉獻佛者，表近修妙行、遠報佛恩故。

Commentary: This text contains six [items]. Fifth, explaining his companions in virtue: five hundred young men, all of the Licchavi clan. Sixth, explaining the number of parasols: each holding one parasol. Seventh, explaining the carving and adornment: adorned with the seven jewels. Eighth, explaining their arrival: going to the Āmrapālī Grove. Ninth, explaining the presentation: each offering it to the Bhagavat. Holding one parasol signifies that each individually gave rise to the four immeasurable minds to shelter sentient beings. Being adorned with the seven jewels signifies cultivating the seven noble treasures to assist in adorning the immeasurables. As for the seven jewels, the Buddhabhūmi-śāstra states: 'First, gold; second, silver; third, vaiḍūrya; fourth, musāragalva, formerly called coral; fifth, aśmagarbha, formerly called giant clam shell; sixth, aśmagarbha (agate), formerly called carnelian; seventh, red pearl, produced from red worms, or the body of the pearl itself is red.' Although other texts give varying accounts according to what is valued in different regions, when this sūtra speaks of the seven jewels, it is determined by this. Offering them to the Buddha signifies cultivating wondrous practices in the short term and repaying the Buddha's kindness in the long run.
