1.148

今奉世尊此微蓋。於中現我三千界。諸天龍神所居宮。乾闥婆等及夜叉。悉見世間諸所有。十力哀現是化變。眾覩希有皆歎佛。今我稽首三界尊 此下四行頌上獻蓋等三奉微蓋等獻蓋也。於中現等合蓋也。眾覩等眾歎也 肇曰。微微小也。所奉至微所見至廣。此是如來哀愍之所現。十力者是如來別稱耳。

"Now we offer to the World-Honoured One this slight canopy; / Within it is manifested our three-thousandfold world, / The palaces where the devas, dragons, and spirits dwell, / The gandharvas and so forth, as well as the yakṣas, / All seeing whatever exists in the world. / The Ten Powers compassionately manifested this transformation; / The multitude, beholding this rare event, all praise the Buddha. / Now I bow my head to the Honoured One of the Three Realms." Below, these four verses praise the preceding offering of the canopy and so forth: the three lines 'offer this slight canopy' and so forth are the offering of the canopy; 'within it is manifested' and so forth is the gathering together of the canopies; 'the multitude, beholding' and so forth is the praise of the assembly. Sengzhao says: "'Slight' means small. What was offered was extremely slight; what was seen was extremely vast. This was manifested by the Tathāgata's compassionate pity. 'Ten Powers' is merely another name for the Tathāgata."
