阿彌陀經通贊疏 3.34

3.34

贊曰：第二南方也。分五如前，此前二段也（一指國土、二舉佛名），可知。日月燈佛者，身光智光內外俱照故。名聞光者，有大名聞光照內外，或聞名見光生覺悟故。大焰肩者，身光發焰出於肩故，或肩者齊也，即身光智光皆發焰齊也。須彌燈者，身光如燈焰有破暗故。無量精進者，利樂有情也。

Commentary: Second, the southern direction. Divided into five as before, these are the first two passages (1. indicating the land; 2. listing the Buddha names), which can be known. 'Sūryapradīpa Buddha': because the bodily light and wisdom light illumine both internally and externally. 'Yaśaprabha': because he possesses great fame and his light illumines internally and externally, or because hearing his name and seeing his light gives rise to awakening. 'Mahārciḥskandha': because his bodily light emits flames that issue from his shoulders; or 'shoulder' means equal, namely that both bodily light and wisdom light emit flames equally. 'Merupradīpa': because his bodily light is like the flame of a lamp, having the power to shatter darkness. 'Anantavīrya': because he benefits and brings joy to sentient beings.
