2.531

"'And said to the Buddha: "World-Honoured One, after the Tathāgata's extinction, I shall practice the offering of Dharma and protect the true Dharma. May you, with spiritual power, compassionately support and establish me, so that I may subjugate demonic adversaries and cultivate the bodhisattva path."'" / Third is requesting empowerment and protection. / Sengzhao says: "Hearing of the offering of Dharma, he rejoiced and wished to practice it. Yet the way of the sūtra is deep and vast, not something his own power could propagate; therefore he prayed for spiritual power to support him."
