大般涅槃經集解 43.32

43.32

案僧亮曰：所以慈光遠至者，王聞父誨，地獄苦報必受不疑。謂罪不可消，自鄙凶穢，佛不接顧。有此二疑，不敢詣佛。慈光遠至，二疑俱釋也。僧宗曰：此下第五段也。前言為王住世治其心，雖有其言，未見其實。月愛三昧，始為驗也。寶亮曰：先治其身，後治心也。智秀曰：第二放光滅苦也。

Sengliang notes: The reason why the compassionate light reached far is that the king, having heard his father's admonition, had no doubt that he would certainly receive the painful retribution of hell. Believing his offenses could not be eradicated, and despising himself as wicked and defiled, [he thought] the Buddha would not receive and look upon him. Having these two doubts, he dared not go to the Buddha. When the compassionate light reached from afar, both doubts were resolved together. Sengzong says: From here down is the fifth section. Previously it was said that for the king's sake he remains in the world to cure his mind; though there were these words, their reality had not yet been seen. The Moon-Loving Samādhi is the first verification. Baoliang says: First he cures his body, and afterwards cures his mind. Zhixiu says: The second is emitting light to eliminate suffering.
