法会圣众第一
First [Chapter On] Dharma Assembly’s Noble Assembly
我闻如是,一时,佛住王舍城,耆阇崛山中。
I [have] heard thus, [that at] one time, [the] Buddha [was] abiding [at] Rājagṛha City, within Mount Gṛdhrakūṭa.
与大比丘众万二千人俱,一切大圣,神通已达。
With [the] Great Bhikṣu assembly [of] twelve thousand persons together, all [of whom are] great sages, [with] supernormal powers already attained.
