梵網經菩薩戒本疏 6.231

6.231

Part three, from "I now..." onward is the section concluding and encouraging circulation. Within this there are four parts: 1. concluding what has already been briefly explained; 2. from "All of you..." onward, encouraging study and enjoining practice; 3. from "Like the markless..." onward, pointing to that extensive text; 4. from "the three thousand..." onward, explaining that the assembly heard and upheld it. This means that each is extensively explained in that chapter, causing those three thousand followers, having heard it, to give rise to joy. Another explanation is that those three thousand in the assembly, having heard the Buddha recite this abridged version, gave rise to joy and received and upheld it.
