觀無量壽佛經疏 3.79

3.79

Fourth, from "At that time Vaidehī saw Amitāyus" down to "made obeisance," it directly explains that Vaidehī was in fact a defiled pṛthagjana of female form, not worthy of mention. Yet through the unseen empowerment of the sage's power, when that Buddha appeared, she was enabled to bow her head. Thus, when initially beholding the Pure Land, her joy and praise were uncontrollable; now, directly beholding Amitābha, her mind opened even further to realize forbearance.
