金光明經文句記 2.381

2.381

七、「從時」下，集眾序，二：初、正釋經文，二：初、對他經前後。二、「時者」下，約今經解釋，三：初、正明此室眾，二：初、略釋時眾；二、「信相」下，明集眾意。即八十壽顯三身常，豈益信相一人而已？故以神力攝諸有緣，令聞圓常，得四悉益。言益處多者，豈止一室。此眾聞後，在處宣布耳。

Seventh, from 'From "At that time"' onward, the preface on gathering the assembly, which has two [parts]: first, directly explaining the sūtra text, which has two [parts]: first, comparing the order with other sūtras. Second, from 'As for time...' onward, explaining in terms of the present sūtra, which has three [parts]: first, directly clarifying the assembly in this room, which has two [parts]: first, briefly explaining the assembly at that time; second, from 'Ruciraketu...' onward, clarifying the intention of gathering the assembly. Revealing the permanence of the three bodies by means of the eighty-year lifespan, how could it benefit Ruciraketu alone? Therefore, through supernatural power he gathered those with conditions, causing them to hear the perfect and eternal and obtain the four siddhānta benefits. Saying that 'the places of benefit are many': how could it be limited to one room? After hearing it, this assembly proclaimed it everywhere.
