金光明最勝王經疏 5.429

5.429

下正教請被，有二：初請佛加被令得、後「敬禮諸佛妙辨才」下請辨才天等加被令得。初復有三：初歸敬三寶、次讚佛語等為請所由、後「敬禮敬禮」下正請世尊加被令得。此初也。

Below is correctly teaching how to invoke empowerment, having two parts: first, invoking the Buddha's empowerment so that one may obtain it; later, from "Homage to the wondrous eloquence of all buddhas" downward, invoking Sarasvatī and others to empower so that one may obtain it. The first again has three parts: first, taking refuge in and revering the Three Jewels; next, praising the Buddha's speech and so forth as the ground for the invocation; later, from "Homage, homage" downward, directly invoking the World-Honoured One's empowerment so that one may obtain it. This is the first.
