第二、說聽功益者，先明說益，略有二義：一者、如親見佛。故戒經云「莫謂我涅槃，淨行者無護。我今說戒經（一卷戒本），亦善說毘尼（大調伏藏），我雖般涅槃，當觀如世尊。」經云「當知此則是汝大師。」意亦同也。二者、因之斷惑。即戒經云「七佛為世尊，滅除諸結使，說是七戒經，諸縛得解脫，已入於涅槃，諸戲永滅盡。尊行大仙說，聖賢稱譽戒，弟子之所行，入寂滅涅槃。」

> Second, as for the benefits of expounding and listening: first, to clarify the benefits of expounding, there are briefly two meanings: first, it is like seeing the Buddha in person. Hence the prātimokṣa sūtra says: 'Do not say that I have entered nirvāṇa, and that those of pure conduct have no protector. I now speak the prātimokṣa sūtra (the one fascicle of the prātimokṣa) and have also well expounded the vinaya (the great treasury of subjugation). Though I attain parinirvāṇa, you should regard them as the World-Honoured One.' A sūtra says: 'You should know that this is your Great Master.' Its intent is the same. Second, through it, afflictions are severed. That is, the prātimokṣa sūtra says: 'The seven Buddhas, as the World-Honoured Ones, eliminated all defilements. Having spoken these seven prātimokṣa sūtras, all bonds were liberated; having already entered into nirvāṇa, all proliferation was forever extinguished. Spoken by the revered Great Rṣi, praised by the sages and worthies, practiced by the disciples, they enter tranquil nirvāṇa.'
