阿彌陀經疏 1.107

1.107

經曰：「文殊師利法王子」者，次第二列名。按梵本云曼殊室利，此云妙德。新譯《稱讚淨土經》名妙吉祥，《正法華》名溥首，有經名濡首。《悲華經》云：過去有佛名寶藏如來，時轉輪王第三子聰明智慧，發深大願修菩薩行。彼佛語言：「我今字汝為文殊師利。」今依舊目為名。

The sūtra says: "Mañjuśrī, Prince of the Dharma": next, second, is the listing of the names. According to the Sanskrit text, it is Mañjuśrī, here translated as "Wondrous Virtue." In the newly translated *Sūtra Praising the Pure Land*, he is named "Wondrous Auspiciousness"; in Dharmarakṣa's *Saddharmapuṇḍarīka*, he is named "Universal Leader"; some sūtras name him "Gentle Leader." The *Karuṇāpuṇḍarīka-sūtra* states: In the past there was a Buddha named Ratnagarbha Tathāgata; at that time, the third son of a wheel-turning king was bright and wise, generated a deep and great vow, and cultivated the bodhisattva practices. That Buddha said to him: "I now name you Mañjuśrī." Here we rely on the old title as the name.
