流通中第三囑累品。所以來付囑彌勒阿難令末代流通故有囑累品來。此法是佛之憂累。今以我之累付囑於汝。又一解。以此經法付囑彌勒。即是彌勒之憂累。彌勒自憂當此事故云囑累也。就中有二段。第一從初已下訖無令伺求得其便者。委付彌勒。第二是時佛告阿難已下付囑阿難。

> Within the transmission, the third is the Chapter on Entrustment. The reason it comes is to entrust \[the sūtra\] to Maitreya and Ānanda so that they will circulate it in the final era; therefore the Chapter on Entrustment comes. This Dharma is the Buddha's anxious burden; now I entrust my burden to you. Another explanation: entrusting this sūtra's Dharma to Maitreya is itself Maitreya's anxious burden; Maitreya personally shoulders this task with anxious care, hence it is called entrustment. Within this are two sections: first, from the beginning down to "do not let those who spy and seek find an opportunity," it specifically entrusts Maitreya; second, from "At that time the Buddha told Ānanda..." downward, it entrusts Ānanda.
