| It was named '地', 'a land' because it can be compared to a land putting on all things and giving benefit to them that Bosatsu gets the wisdom of Buddha, keeps holding without moving, bears the burden of all living things, teaches them and gives them benefit. |
仏智を生成し、よく住持して動かず、あらゆる衆生を荷負し教下利益することが、大地が万物を載せ、これを潤益するからに似ているから「地」と名づく。 |
