觀無量壽佛經疏 2.33

2.33

答曰：「諸臣身異，復是外人，恐有情通，致使嚴加重制。又夫人者，身是女人，心無異計。與王宿緣業重久近夫妻，別體同心，致使人無外慮。是以得入與王相見。」

Answer: 'The ministers were of different bodies and were also outsiders; [Ajātaśatru] feared feelings might pass between them, which brought about the strict imposition of severe restrictions. Moreover, as for the queen consort, her person was a woman, and her mind had no divergent schemes. Having heavy karmic connections from past lives with the king and being husband and wife for a long time, they were different bodies with a single mind, which caused people to have no external suspicion. Therefore, she was able to enter and see the king.'
