法華文句記 10.25

10.25

「常在靈山為報土」者，若準餘國指有餘土者，報土須指他受用也。據「常在」之言，即屬自受用土；若準頌文寶莊嚴言，則非自土即本時他也，如華嚴中多明他受用耳。「即上餘國義也」者，指上「我於餘國」文也。此且指於報土之外，通則亦遍十方若淨若穢。「諸有修功德」等者，即指緣、了具足者也，《經》云「則皆見我身實報土」也。《經》云「或時為此眾」等者，亦初地初住也。《經》云「久乃見佛」者，即指五濁重者。《經》云「我智力如是」，總結大勢力也。

Regarding 'constantly on Vulture Peak as the reward land': if, according to other lands, one points to the land with remainder, the reward land must refer to [the land of] enjoyment for others. Based on the words 'constantly residing,' it belongs to the land of self-enjoyment; if based on the verse's mention of jeweled adornment, then it is not one's own land, but rather the other at the fundamental time, just as the Avataṃsaka mostly clarifies enjoyment for others. Regarding 'that is the meaning of other lands above': it points to the previous text, 'I in other lands.' This temporarily points to what lies outside the reward land; in general terms, it also pervades the ten directions, whether pure or defiled. Regarding 'those who cultivate merit,' and so forth: this refers to those who are complete in the conditioned and revealing [causes]; the Sūtra says, 'then all see my body in the true reward land.' Regarding the Sūtra saying 'at times for this assembly,' and so forth: this also refers to the first bhūmi and the first abode. Regarding the Sūtra saying 'only after a long time seeing the Buddha': this refers to those whose five defilements are heavy. Regarding the Sūtra saying 'such is the power of my wisdom': it summarizes the great power.
