2.169

述曰:第十一、廣顯流通。文中有六意:一、書寫;二、流通;三、受持;四、讀誦;五、聽聞;六、供養。又依《無上依經》云:「有十種受持:一、書寫;二、供養;三、流傳;四、諦聽;五、自讀;六、憶持;七、自誦;八、廣說;九、思惟;十、修行。」前七得文,後兩得義,第八廣說通得文義。此有三人,前七是能持人,第八是能說人,後二能行人。能行但自利,能說但利他,能持通二種。前八是福德道,第九加行道,第十治障道也。

The commentary says: Eleventh, broadly revealing its circulation. The text contains six points: first, copying; second, circulating; third, upholding; fourth, reading and reciting; fifth, listening; sixth, making offerings. Furthermore, according to the Anuttarāśraya-sūtra: 'There are ten kinds of upholding: first, copying; second, making offerings; third, circulating; fourth, listening attentively; fifth, reading for oneself; sixth, recollecting and upholding; seventh, reciting for oneself; eighth, expounding extensively; ninth, contemplating; tenth, practicing.' The first seven obtain the text; the last two obtain the meaning; the eighth, expounding extensively, encompasses both text and meaning. These involve three kinds of people: the first seven are those capable of upholding; the eighth is the one capable of expounding; the latter two are those capable of practicing. Those capable of practicing only benefit themselves; the one capable of expounding only benefits others; those capable of upholding encompass both. The first eight are the path of merit, the ninth is the path of preparatory application, and the tenth is the path of remedying hindrances.
