法華証明抄二 The Proof of the Lotus Sutra 2


 なれども・なをなを末代の凡夫は・をぼつかなしと・をぼしめしや有りけん、

Nevertheless, Shakyamuni Buddha may have felt that ordinary people in the latter age would still be skeptical.

But perhaps believing that common mortals in the Latter Day of the Law would still remain skeptical,

十方の諸仏を()しあつめさせ給いて広長舌相(ぜっそう)と申して無量劫より・このかた永くそらごとなきひろくながく大なる御舌(おんした)須弥山(しゅみせん)のごとく虚空(こくう)に立てならべ給いし事は・をびただしかりし事なり、

Hence he summoned the Buddhas of the ten directions to come and join him in the magnificent act of extending their long broad tongues,which had told nothing but the truth for countless kalpas, until they projected into the sky as high as Mount Sumeru.

Shakyamuni Buddha then summoned all Buddhas from throughout the ten directions to verify the truth of the Lotus Sutra. Following Shakyamuni’s example, the assembled Buddhas extended their long, broad tongues, which had told nothing but the truth for countless kalpas, until they magnificently rose into the sky like Mount Sumeru. This was truly astounding.

かう候へば末代の凡夫(ぼんぷ)の身として法華経の一字・二字を信じまいらせ候へば十方の仏の御舌を持つ物ぞかし、

Since this is the case, when ordinary people in the latter age believe in even one or two words of the Lotus Sutra, they are embracing the teaching to which the Buddhas of the ten directions have given credence.

 This means that when you, a common mortal in the Latter Day of the Law, believe in even one or two words of the Lotus Sutra, you are embracing the True Law attested to by all the Buddhas in the ten directions.
