第三文開兩節。初明帝釋為敬法故供養給事受持經者。二所在已下明有經處往彼守護。此明經法深勝難思能令學者究竟得佛。是以身子自慶於前。帝釋今復嘆美於後。欲使聞者必修故也。上來天帝嘆經勸學。

> The third section divides into two parts: first, explaining Śakra's offering and serving those who uphold the sūtra out of reverence for the Dharma; second, beginning with "wherever it may be," explaining his going there to guard and protect places where the sūtra exists. This clarifies that the Dharma of the sūtra is profound, supreme, and inconceivable, capable of enabling practitioners ultimately to attain Buddhahood. For this reason, Śāriputra congratulated himself earlier, and Śakra now praises it again afterward, wishing to ensure that those who hear it will certainly practice it. The above constitutes the Heavenly Emperor's praising the sūtra and encouraging study.
