盂蘭盆經讚述 1.40

1.40

經曰目連比丘及四輩弟子奉行者　述曰。第五承命也。如來降茲法雨澤潤含生。散坐將終傳芳即席。但目連等咸受命頂戴奉行。既荷載聖恩。理懷歡憙也。

[When] the sūtra states, 'The monk Maudgalyāyana and the fourfold assembly of disciples practiced [the teaching]': The commentary says: The fifth is receiving the command. The Tathāgata sent down this rain of Dharma to moisten all living beings; as the assembly was about to disperse, the fragrance was transmitted from the seats. Maudgalyāyana and the others all received the command, crowned their heads with it, and practiced it. Having borne the holy kindness, by principle their minds were joyful.
