Because the sūtra elucidates this principle, it says 'Thus'. Moreover, 'Thus' is merely a phrase pointing to an event, meaning: 'The teaching of the Pure Land like this is what I personally heard'; therefore the next phrase says 'have I heard'. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.29](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1760.1.29) - [Next: 1.31](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1760.1.31) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1760.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1760~en-mt.1.30) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1760.1.30](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1760.1.30) · Pramāṇa
