阿彌陀經疏 1.71

1.71

From "Śāriputra, what do you think?" onward, second, concluding with the exhortation to attain rebirth. This also has two parts: first, the benefit of hearing the sūtra and the buddhas; second, explaining the efficacy of vowing to be born there. The first also has three parts: first, reciting the alternative title to raise an inquiry. From "Śāriputra" onward, second, demonstrating the benefit based on the sūtra and the buddhas. Anuttara means unexcelled; samyak means right; again sam- means equal; bodhi means awakening. Because the ultimate fruition surpasses the causes, it is called unexcelled; "right" means correctly contemplating the Middle Way; "equal" means illuminating both extremes simultaneously; this is indeed the single mind and three wisdoms at the stage of fruition. From "Therefore" onward, third, summarizing the exhortation to have dual faith.
