The Sutra on the Eight Realizations of Great Beings
會解，并前後敘引，隨本經通為十卷。昨於甲申歲間，甞刊為梵夾廣行矣。或謂梵夾固佳，惟四方禪講遊學之士，尚恨包笈中將帶未便，於是吳郡張子明倡率同志，復刊為方冊，蓋各從其便耳。書之者，同郡羅元也；施梨板者，王文勇也；其點校參詳勸募營辦者，宜春嗣詎華亭師訓善遇、高昌正因也。刊始於至正壬辰之暮春，至十有一月而工畢。所冀施者、書者、恊力以贊成者、聞者、見者、讀誦而受持者，福籍緣興，道因言顯。字字放光現端，永資聖化而法印宣傳；人人發真歸元，不歷僧祇而佛果成就。
The commentary, along with the introductory and concluding sections, has been compiled with the main sutra into ten volumes. Last year, during the Jiashan period, it was printed in the traditional palm-leaf format and widely circulated. However, some noted that while the palm-leaf format is excellent, traveling monks and scholars still found it inconvenient to carry in their bags. Therefore, Zhang Ziming of Wu Prefecture, along with like-minded companions, initiated the printing of a bound book format to suit everyone’s convenience. The calligraphy was done by Luo Yuan of the same prefecture; the printing blocks were provided by Wang Wenyong. Those responsible for proofreading, detailed review, fundraising, and project management were Siju of Yichun, Shi Xun of Huating, Shan Yu, and Zheng Yin of Gaochang. The printing began in late spring of the Zhizheng Renchen year and was completed by the eleventh month. It is hoped that all who contributed to its printing, those who wrote or assisted in its completion, as well as those who see, hear, read, recite, or uphold it, will accumulate blessings and deepen their understanding of the Dharma. May each word radiate light, eternally supporting the sacred teachings and spreading the Dharma seal. May everyone awaken to their true nature, attaining Buddhahood without passing through countless eons.
