### [8.198](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.8.198)

什曰：譬如良醫遇疾疫劫中，醫術大行廣施眾藥，所療者眾致供無量。菩薩大士處不淨國亦復如是，眾惡彌滋兼濟乃弘，十事法藥廣療眾病，化廣利深一超萬劫。肇曰：行不在久，貴其有益焉。

> \[Kumāra\]jīva says: For example, it is like an excellent physician in an age of pestilence, whose medical skill is widely practiced and who dispenses many medicines: those he cures are numerous, and the offerings brought to him are measureless. It is likewise for the bodhisattva mahāsattvas dwelling in an impure land. As various evils proliferate all the more, universal deliverance becomes all the greater. With the ten items of Dharma-medicine they widely treat numerous illnesses; the conversion is extensive and the benefit profound, surpassing ten thousand kalpas in a single stroke. \[Seng\]zhao says: Practice is not about length of time; what is valued is having benefit.
