觀音義疏記 1.8

1.8

問：三觀所對唯在煩惱，縱兼遠障只至於業，事相火等全不妨觀，何得果報預觀釋邪？

Question: What the three contemplations directly confront is solely affliction; even if they secondarily involve distant hindrances, it extends only up to karma. Phenomenal fire and so forth do not hinder contemplation at all; how can the karmic retribution be included in the contemplative explanation?
