觀無量壽佛經疏 2.76

2.76

二、從此濁惡處下，至不見惡人已來，正明夫人舉出所厭之境。此明閻浮總惡，未有一處可貪。但以幻惑愚夫，飲斯長苦。言此濁惡處者，正明苦界也。又明器世間，亦是眾生依報處，亦名眾生所依處也。言地獄等已下，三品惡果最重也。言盈滿者，此三苦聚非直獨指閻浮，娑婆亦皆遍有，故言盈滿。言多不善聚者，此明三界六道不同種類恒沙，隨心差別。經云：業能莊識，世世處處各趣隨緣受果報，對面不相知。言願我未來已下，此明夫人真心徹到，厭苦娑婆，欣樂無為，永歸常樂。但無為之境，不可輕爾即階。苦惱娑婆，無由輒然得離。自非發金剛之志，永絕生死之元。若不親從慈尊，何能勉斯長歎。然願我未來不聞惡聲惡人者，此明如闍王、調達殺父破僧及惡聲等，願亦不聞不見。但闍王既是親生之子，上於父母起於殺心，何況疎人而不相害？是故夫人不簡親疎，總皆頓捨。

Second, from "This defiled and evil place" down to "not see evil persons," it clearly shows that the consort pointed out the realm she reviled. This clarifies that Jambudvīpa is evil overall, with not a single place worthy of craving; yet delusional fools are infatuated by it and drink of this long-lasting suffering. The phrase "this defiled and evil place" directly indicates the realm of suffering. Furthermore, it clarifies the receptacle world, which is also the place of circumstantial retribution for sentient beings, also termed the place upon which sentient beings depend. From the phrase "hells..." down, the three lowest evil fruits are the heaviest. The word "filled" means that these three collections of suffering do not merely refer to Jambudvīpa alone; the Sahā world is completely filled with them, hence it is said to be "filled." The phrase "many assemblies of unwholesome beings" clarifies that across the three realms and six destinies there are various kinds, countless as the sands of the Ganges, differing according to their minds. The sūtra says: "Karma can adorn consciousness; life after life and place after place, in their respective destinies, beings receive retributions according to conditions, yet face-to-face they do not know one another." From the phrase "May I in the future..." down, it clarifies that the consort's genuine mind reached its peak: reviling the suffering of the Sahā world, she rejoiced in unconditioned bliss, longing to return forever to eternal joy. However, the unconditioned realm cannot be attained lightly, and the painful Sahā world cannot be escaped heedlessly. Unless one gives rise to a diamond-like resolve, one cannot forever cut off the source of birth and death; unless one personally attends upon the Compassionate Honoured One, how could one be delivered from this long grief? Now, regarding "May I in the future hear no evil sounds and see no evil persons," this clarifies that, like King Ajātaśatru and Devadatta who killed the father and split the Sangha, along with evil sounds and the like, she wished neither to hear nor see them. Since King Ajātaśatru was her own son, and yet gave rise to murderous intent against his parents, how much more might unrelated strangers harm one another? Therefore, the consort did not distinguish between relatives and strangers, but cast them all away at once.
