說無垢稱經疏 6.744

6.744

贊曰：下受前付屬。有二：初受法、後受人。此初也。護此大法，令不沒故。有人流通，法便行故。

Commentary: Below is accepting the previous entrustment. There are two parts: first, accepting the Dharma; second, accepting the persons. This is the first. It is to protect this great Dharma so that it will not perish; for if there are persons to circulate it, the Dharma will then be practiced.
