Summary
s.1The bodhisattva Maitreya approaches the Buddha on Vulture Peak Mountain and asks him to explain the karmic results of teaching the Dharma. The Buddha responds by comparing the merit gained by a person who makes an unfathomably enormous material offering to the buddhas, to the merit gained by another person who teaches a single verse of Dharma, declaring that the merit of the latter is far superior.
s.1菩薩彌勒來到鷲峰山，向佛請問宣說法教所得的業果。佛陀回答，將一個人供養諸佛以無量廣大的物質供品所獲得的福德，與另一個人宣說一個法偈所獲得的福德相比較，宣布後者的福德遠遠超勝。
