經。當知是人不於一佛二佛三四五佛而種善根已於無量百千萬佛所種諸善根者。後文別教也。於中有二。初明修福。後明修智。此文初也。於中有四。一明信因。二明信體。三明信緣。四明集果。此即第一信因也。言不於一佛二佛三四五佛者。明其不少簡異初心。已於無量千萬佛所者。彰其已多記明根熟 種諸善根者。謂於佛田燒香散花稱名讚德。種無貪等三種善根也。

[Sūtra:] "You should know that such a person has planted good roots not merely before one Buddha, two Buddhas, three, four, or five Buddhas, but has planted good roots before immeasurable hundreds of thousands of Buddhas." The subsequent text provides a distinct teaching. Within this there are two parts: first, explaining the cultivation of merit, and second, explaining the cultivation of wisdom. This passage is the first. Within it there are four parts: 1. explaining the cause of faith; 2. explaining the essence of faith; 3. explaining the conditions for faith; 4. explaining the accumulation of results. This is the first, the cause of faith. Saying "not merely before one Buddha, two Buddhas, three, four, or five Buddhas" shows that it is not small, distinguishing them from beginners. "Before immeasurable thousands of Buddhas" reveals that it is already vast, clearly noting that their faculties have matured. "Planted good roots" refers to burning incense, scattering flowers, reciting names, and praising virtues in the field of the Buddha, planting the three good roots such as non-greed.
