維摩義記 1.63

1.63

自下第三明化利益。於中有二：一、由現淨利益；二、由還穢利益聲聞。前中「常佛現國淨時」，得益所由。下正明益。「寶積所將得無生」者，知土本淨從來無染，無染可起故得無生。「八萬四千發菩提」者，覩淨願求，所以發心。後中「佛攝還復如故」，得益所由。下正顯益。「三萬二千遠塵離垢法眼淨」者，道悟初果，由見土變，知有為法皆悉無常，不取不執，名為遠塵。內離見惑，名為離垢。見諦明白，名法眼淨。「八千比丘不受諸法漏盡意解得羅漢果」，由見土變，知三界法悉無定性，不生貪取，名不受法，當前遠塵；內除愛染，名為漏盡，當前離垢；得無學智，名為意解，當前得眼。

From here below is the third [section], clarifying the benefits of conversion. Within this there are two [parts]: first, the benefit from manifesting the pure [land]; second, the benefit to śrāvakas from returning to the defiled [land]. In the former, "When the Buddha manifested the purity of the country" is the occasion for obtaining benefit. Below, he directly clarifies the benefit. "Those whom Ratnakūṭa led attained [the tolerance of] non-arising": knowing that the land is fundamentally pure and has never been defiled, and that there is no defilement that can arise, they therefore attained [the tolerance of] non-arising. "Eighty-four thousand generated the aspiration for bodhi": beholding the purity, they made aspirations and sought it, which is why they generated the mind [for bodhi]. In the latter, "The Buddha gathered it in, returning it to how it was before" is the occasion for obtaining benefit. Below, he directly reveals the benefit. "Thirty-two thousand separated from dust, removed defilement, and attained the purity of the Dharma-eye": as for awakening to the first fruit [of the path], by seeing the transformation of the land they knew that all conditioned dharmas are impermanent, neither seizing nor clinging, which is called "separating from dust"; internally separating from the afflictions of view is called "removing defilement"; clearly perceiving the truths is called "purity of the Dharma-eye." "Eight thousand monks, without clinging to any dharma, with their defilements ended and their minds liberated, attained the fruit of arhatship": by seeing the transformation of the land, they knew that dharmas of the three realms all lack fixed nature and did not give rise to craving or grasping, which is called "not clinging to dharmas," corresponding to the previous "separating from dust"; internally eliminating craving and attachment is called "defilements ended," corresponding to the previous "removing defilement"; attaining non-learner's wisdom is called "minds liberated," corresponding to the previous "attaining the eye."
