On the sūtra passage from "By the power of the original vow" to "because it is an ultimate vow": The Commentary states: This second part concerns obtaining benefit through the power of the vows. The "original vow" refers to the power of the past vows. If bodhisattvas of other directions obtain tolerance upon hearing the name, how much more so those of his own land! Because the vows lack nothing, they are "fulfilled"; because seeking them is not in vain, they are "clear"; because conditions cannot destroy them, they are "firm"; and because the vows must achieve their fruit, they are "ultimate." By the power of these vows, those born in that land all obtain the three tolerances.
