阿彌陀經通贊疏 1.33

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.33](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1758.1.33)

答：「有四義：一者、言說易故，若說無我通蘊處界，知此經誰；二者、順世間故；三者、除無我怖故，言無我者為誰修學；四者、有自他染淨因果事業等故，所以稱我聞。」

> Answer: "There are four meanings: First, because conventional speech is easy: if one said 'without self,' it would apply generally across aggregates, sense-fields, and realms, and who would be known to have \[heard\] this sūtra? Second, because of complying with worldly convention. Third, because of eliminating fear of non-self: if one says 'without self,' for whose sake would one cultivate and study? Fourth, because there are self and other, defilement and purity, causes and effects, actions and karma, and so forth. Therefore, it says 'I have heard.'"
