5.4

釋名者,觀謂慧照,察謂察視。人天是所觀,四天王是能觀,此則人法帶數為名。此品廣明彼事,故云〈四天王觀察人天品〉。

As for explaining the title: "observation" (guan) means illumination by wisdom; "investigation" (cha) means scrutinizing. Humans and devas are what is observed; the Four Heavenly Kings are those who observe. This combines persons and dharma along with a number to form the title. Because this chapter extensively elucidates that matter, it is called "The Chapter on the Four Heavenly Kings' Observation of Humans and Devas."
