2.242

"Seeing those who require service, / He manifests as their servant; / Having pleased and satisfied their minds, / He then inspires them with the aspiration for the path. / According to whatever they need / To be able to enter the Buddha path, / Through the power of skilful means / He is able to supply them all sufficiently. / Such paths are immeasurable, / Their practices have no shore; / His wisdom has no boundary, / Delivering countless multitudes. / Even if all the Buddhas / Throughout countless billions of kalpas / Were to praise his merits, / They still could not exhaust them." / The fourth section concludes and exhorts. These two verses conclude. [Dao]sheng says: "Responding appropriately without a fixed mode, all of this is the Buddha's way." Zhao says: "His path of expedient means and wisdom has no shore and no boundary; even with the distinct eloquence of all the sages, it still cannot be exhausted."
