Regarding the purpose of its occurrence: there are five parts to the circulation of practice and study, and this is the fourth, directly clarifying upholding and studying. Furthermore, there are two aspects: first, citing the past; second, exhorting the present. Citing the past has two parts: first, citing others' upholding in the past; next, citing one's own upholding in the past. This chapter exhorts the present assembly to uphold \[the sūtra\]. Furthermore, it elaborates and fulfills the practice of circulating \[the sūtra\] by those able to uphold the sūtra and the eight classes of beings mentioned in the previous "Chapter on Protecting the Country"; hence this chapter arises. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 6.25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1788.6.25) - [Next: 6.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1788.6.27) - [Up: 6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1788.6) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1788~en-mt.6.26) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1788.6.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1788.6.26) · Pramāṇa
