觀無量壽佛經疏 2.33

2.33

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.'
