第九唯心淨土者,自證自心當體無心,性唯真智不念淨穢,稱真任性,心無恚癡、無貪瞋癡,任大悲智安樂眾生,是實淨土。以自淨故,教化眾生令他亦淨故。是故《維摩經》云「唯其心淨即佛國淨,欲生淨土當淨其心。」

Regarding the ninth, the mind-only pure land: when one personally verifies that one's own mind in its very essence is without mind, its nature is solely true wisdom that does not dwell on purity or defilement; according with reality and following its nature, the mind is free of resentment and folly, free of greed, hatred, and ignorance; following great compassion and wisdom to bring peace and joy to sentient beings, this is the real pure land. Because one is oneself pure, one teaches and guides sentient beings to make them pure as well. Therefore the Vimalakīrtinirdeśa Sūtra says, "Only when one's mind is pure is the buddha-land pure; one who wishes to be born in a pure land should purify their mind."
