金光明最勝王經疏 3.675

3.675

經　「善男子！若有苾芻、苾芻尼、鄔波索迦、鄔波斯迦，隨在何處為人講說是《金光明》微妙經典，於其國土皆獲四種福利善根。云何為四？一者國王無病離諸災厄、二者壽命長遠無有障礙、三者無諸怨敵兵眾勇健、四者安隱豐樂正法流通。何以故？如是人王常為釋梵四王藥叉之眾共守護故。」

Sūtra: "Good sons! If there are bhikṣus, bhikṣuṇīs, upāsakas, or upāsikās who, wherever they may be, lecture on and expound this subtle, wondrous scripture of the Golden Light for others, in that realm they will all obtain four kinds of blessings, benefits, and roots of goodness. What are the four? First, the king of the country is free from illness and separated from all disasters and perils; second, his lifespan is long and extensive without any impediments; third, there are no hostile enemies and his troops are brave and robust; fourth, there is tranquility, abundance, joy, and the circulation of the saddharma. Why is this? Because such a king of men is constantly guarded together by the assembly of Brahmā, Śakra, the Four Kings, and the yakṣas."
