At that time, the Four Heavenly Kings said to the Buddha: "World-Honoured One, in every place—in cities, towns, villages, mountain forests, and wildernesses—wherever there are rolls of this sūtra being read, recited, and explained, I will lead my various officials and attendants to go to that place for the sake of listening to the Dharma, to temporarily protect those persons, and within a hundred yojanas ensure that none who watch for an opportunity will gain their advantage." / Below this is the third part, the Four Heavenly Kings receiving the instruction. Where the sūtra rolls reside, calamities naturally clear away, not to mention that being protected by the power of the devas will further augment the transformation through the Dharma.
