1.221

經曰:「是人終時心不顛倒,即得往生阿彌陀佛國土」,次釋第四眾生託靈也。心不顛倒往生者,謂不改善心夙願也。準往生者皆生於彼七寶池中,蓮華化生身形端正如諸菩薩,人天無別皆黃金色須臾長大。

The sūtra says: “When this person’s life ends, their mind is not inverted, and they immediately attain rebirth in Amitābha Buddha's land”—next, this explains the fourth [point], sentient beings entrusting their consciousness. For the mind not to be inverted upon attaining rebirth means not altering one’s wholesome mind and past vows. In general, those who attain rebirth are all born within that seven-jewel pond, born by transformation in lotus flowers, their bodies upright and dignified like those of the bodhisattvas, with no difference between humans and devas, all of a golden color, immediately growing to full size in an instant.
