When all these emanation bodies come together, it is a very joyful time. They drink tea together, eat biscuits, and have Dharma discussion. Then the Buddha entrusts the wonderful Dharma to the great bodhisattvas and asks them all to return to their worldspheres to continue the work of leading all beings to liberation. In this way, the Sutra says, they can repay the great kindness and compassion the Buddhas have shown by teaching the wonderful Lotus Dharma. This is the true meaning of entrusting. “This teaching is the highest of all teachings. I am now handing it on to you so that you may receive it and teach it widely to benefit all living beings.”
