1.41

"The sūtra says: 'Taking refuge in all buddhas and bodhisattvas'": above, taking refuge and veneration expressed the intent of composing the treatise, requesting awe-inspiring spiritual protection; here, taking refuge and veneration is by the compiler of the sūtra, who, wishing to bring forth the Buddha's sūtra, also requests awe-inspiring spiritual protection. All sūtras alike have these words; it is merely placed here in this one text to show brevity.
