ABSTRACT
The World-honoured One then made manifest His great spiritual powers before the whole assembly which included Manjusri and untold hundreds of thousands of myriad millions of Bodhisattvas and Mahasattvas who had long resided in the Saha world along with both male and female monks and laity, devas and nagas, yakshas, gandharvas and asuras, garudas, kinnaras and mahoragas, humans and non-humans. He thrust forth His long, broad tongue until it reached up to the realm of Brahma whilst every pore of His skin emitted infinite rays of light in hues beyond count, all completely illuminating everywhere in the worlds in all the ten quarters. The Buddha then addressed Him of Superior Practice along with the others in the great assembly of Bodhisattvas. Because this Scripture has been passed on in trust, he who accepts and keeps to It will be offering his praise and adoration, for, even within immeasurable aeons, It will still remain inexhaustible.
