觀彌勒上生兜率天經贊 1.30

1.30

Question: Among places there are pure and defiled, yet the place is definitively stated according to the capacity; among times ordinary beings and noble ones differ, so how could it not be definitively stated? Answer: In stating the place, the defiled and pure are designated, and the defiled can be definitively known; as for the length of time of the expounding, ordinary beings and noble ones cannot be standardized. Within a single assembly, capacities include the sharp and the dull, long durations and short durations; how could they be standardized? Therefore, the place is definitively stated while the time is spoken generally.
