奉持如來無數阿僧祇劫所集阿耨多羅三藐三菩提法。若未來世中善男子善女人求大乘者當令手得如是等經。與其念力。使得受持讀誦為他廣說。世尊。若後末世有能受持讀誦為他說者。當知。是彌勒神力之所建立此二領通經旨。如來得法益通三世。未來有緣。我當令手得心持自行謙說。彌勒神力者。肇曰。定已功於未然息眾魔之摧斷。

"I shall uphold the Dharma of anuttarā-samyak-saṃbodhi accumulated by the Tathāgata over countless asaṃkhyeya kalpas. If in future eras there are good men and good women seeking the Mahāyāna, I shall cause their hands to obtain sūtras such as these and grant them the power of mindfulness, causing them to receive, uphold, read, recite, and expound them widely for others. World-Honoured One, if in the later, final age there are those who can receive, uphold, read, recite, and explain them for others, you should know that this is established by Maitreya's supernatural power." / This is the second part, accepting the instruction to circulate the sūtra. The Tathāgata's attainment of the Dharma benefits and pervades the three times. Where there are affinities in the future, I shall cause their hands to obtain it and their minds to uphold it, humbly speaking of one's own practice. Regarding 'Maitreya's supernatural power,' Sengzhao says: "He determines his own merit beforehand to quell the disruptions of the māras."
