觀無量壽佛經疏 3.25

3.25

「讚云：『地下莊嚴七寶幢，無量無邊無數億，八方八面百寶成，見彼無生自然悟；無生寶國永為常，一一寶流無數光，行者傾心常對目，騰神踊躍入西方。』又讚云：『西方寂靜無為樂，畢竟逍遙離有無，大悲薰心遊法界，分身利物等無殊；或現神通而說法，或現相好入無餘，變現莊嚴隨意出，群生見者罪皆除。』又讚云：『歸去來，魔鄉不可停，曠劫來流轉，六道盡皆經，到處無餘樂，唯聞愁歎聲，畢此生平後，入彼涅槃城。』」

"A praise says:
‘The adornments beneath the ground are seven-jeweled pillars,
Immeasurable, boundless, countless hundreds of millions.
Formed of a hundred treasures in eight directions and eight faces,
Seeing them, one spontaneously awakens to the Unborn.
The unborn jewel-land is forever permanent;
Every single jewel radiates countless beams of light.
Practitioners devotedly keep it constantly before their eyes,
Soaring in spirit, leaping with joy, they enter the West.’
Another praise says:
‘In the West is the bliss of peaceful, unconditioned serenity,
Utterly free and at ease, transcending existence and non-existence.
Great compassion perfumes the mind to wander through the dharmadhātu;
Dividing bodies to benefit beings, equal and without distinction.
Sometimes manifesting supernormal powers to preach the Dharma;
Sometimes manifesting marks and signs to enter the remainderless nirvāṇa.
Adornments transform and appear according to wish;
All sentient beings who behold them have their sins eradicated.’
Another praise says:
‘Return home! One must not linger in the realm of Māra.
Transmigrating for vast kalpas,
One has passed through every one of the six destinies,
Nowhere finding any other joy,
Hearing only the sounds of sorrow and lamentation.
After ending this single lifetime,
Enter that city of nirvāṇa!’"
