觀無量壽佛經義疏 2.83

2.83

「『若得三昧，見彼國地了了分明，不可具說。是為地想，名第三觀。』」三昧，正音三摩地，此翻正定或云等持。想成見地，不待作意任運契合，見境分明。如人學射，初生後熟，發無不中。言思叵及唯證方知，故云不可具說。三、彰益，二：初、重囑轉教；二、正彰利益。初、重囑轉教。

"‘If one attains samādhi, one sees the ground of that land with complete clarity; it cannot be fully described. This is the contemplation of the ground, and is called the third contemplation.’" "Samādhi" is correctly pronounced samādhi, which is translated here as "correct concentration" (samādhi) or "equipoise" (samāpatti). When the contemplation is accomplished and one sees the ground, without having to apply conscious effort one naturally accords with it, seeing the object with clarity. It is like someone learning archery: awkward at first and skillful later, so that whenever an arrow is released, none fails to hit the mark. It is beyond words and thought, known only through personal realization; hence it is said, "it cannot be fully described." Third, showing the benefits, in two parts: first, re-entrusting for dissemination; second, directly showing the benefits. First, re-entrusting for dissemination.
