无尽意言：‘甚多，世尊。’

The Buddha said, "If another person were to receive and uphold the name of Gwan Shr Yin Bodhisattva and bow and make offerings but once, that person's blessings would be equal to and not different from the other person's. They could not be exhausted in hundreds of thousands of myriads of kotis of eons.      Inexhaustible Intention, one who receives and upholds the name of Gwan Shr Yin Bodhisattva obtains the benefit of blessings and virtues as limitless and boundless as those."

佛言：‘若复有人、受持观世音菩萨名号，乃至一时礼拜、供养，是二人福，正等无异，于百千万亿劫、不可穷尽，无尽意，受持观世音菩萨名号，得如是无量无边福德之利。’

Inexhaustible Intention Bodhisattva said to the Buddha, "World Honored One, how does Gwan Shr Yin Bodhisattva roam through this Saha World? How does he speak the Dharma for living beings? How does he carry out this work with the power of expedients?"

无尽意菩萨白佛言：‘世尊，观世音菩萨、云何游此娑婆世界，云何而为众生说法，方便之力，其事云何？’

The Buddha told Inexhaustible Intention Bodhisattva, "Good Man, if living beings in this land must be saved by means of someone in the body of a Buddha, Gwan Shr Yin Bodhisattva will manifest in the body of a Buddha and speak Dharma for them.
