The commentary says: Second, causing them to give rise to the intention to practice the Dharma. There are ten dharmic practices (daśadharmacaryā); here four are cited in brief: 1. receiving and upholding; 2. reading; 3. chanting and reciting; 4. explaining. The first three are practices for one's own benefit, while the latter one is practice for benefiting others; they implicitly indicate the remaining practices. In each of the ten dharmic practices, there are four aspects, namely performing them oneself and so forth. Now, saying “without generating slander” means giving rise to sympathetic joy, generating a mind of sympathetic joy toward what the Buddha has spoken. This shows that they also give rise to sympathetic joy toward those who uphold them and do not slander them; here easy practices are cited for the moment.
