2.85

答:「生居淨土善業緣深,永除異類之身,盡是同生之眾,只如天宮勝境,尚須善業所招,極樂殊方,豈有惡因能往也。況彼尊發願言:『設我得佛,國中有三惡趣者,不取正覺。』故知無也。」

Answer: 'Those born and residing in the Pure Land have deep conditions of good karma; they forever eliminate bodies of different species and are all an assembly of shared birth. Even an exalted realm such as a heavenly palace still requires the summon of good karma; in the extraordinary realm of Sukhāvatī, how could there be an evil cause capable of going there? Moreover, that Honoured One made the vow: "If, when I attain Buddhahood, there are three evil destinies in my land, may I not attain correct enlightenment." Thus we know they do not exist.'
