Just as the teachings revealed in the Lotus Sutra achieved great success by enabling 8000 disciples of Buddha achieve religious salvation, this sutra will teach Buddhist truths to the unenlightened masses, who will have nothing more to learn, just as farmers who have harvested crops in fall for winter storage have nothing more to do,
能(よ)く衆生をして仏性を見せしむ、法華の中に八千の声聞の記別を受くることを得て大果実を成ずる如く、秋収め冬蔵(おさ)めて更に所作無きが如し。
