金光明最勝王經疏 3.396

3.396

贊曰：此有三德，初一句讚三十二相德、次一句讚八十隨好德、次半頌讚成就有情德。如《大莊嚴論》云「譬如盛日，四攝相應發心亦如是，如日熟穀，成就眾生故。」若《增一阿含經》云「日出有四事：一者日出時眾瞑悉除、二農夫作務、三百鳥悉鳴、四嬰兒啼哭。佛告諸比丘：『若日出時眾瞑除者，喻佛出世，除去癡闇，靡不明照人民之類。普共田作者，譬檀越施主，隨時供給衣服、飲食、床席、臥具、病緣醫藥。百鳥鳴者，譬如高德諸法師等，能為四眾說微妙法。嬰兒啼者，此喻弊魔見佛出世心大愁惱。』」

The Commentary states: Here there are three virtues: the first line praises the virtue of the thirty-two marks; the next line praises the virtue of the eighty secondary characteristics; the second half-verse praises the virtue of maturing sentient beings. As the *Mahālaṃkāra-śāstra* says: "Just like the blazing sun, the generation of the mind endowed with the four means of embracing is also like this; just as the sun ripens crops, it matures sentient beings." As the *Ekottarikāgama* says: "There are four things about the rising of the sun: first, when the sun rises, all darkness is dispelled; second, farmers go to work; third, hundreds of birds all sing; fourth, infants weep. The Buddha addressed the bhikṣus: 'When the sun rises and all darkness is dispelled, this is an analogy for the Buddha appearing in the world, dispelling the darkness of ignorance, with none among the human kind left unilluminated. Working the fields in common is an analogy for the dānapatis, the benefactors, providing robes, food and drink, mats, bedding, and medicine for illness in accordance with the seasons. The singing of hundreds of birds is an analogy for the highly virtuous Dharma masters and others being able to explain the subtle Dharma for the fourfold assembly. The weeping of infants is an analogy for the wicked Māra seeing the Buddha appear in the world and feeling great sorrow and distress.'"
