維摩義記 4.61

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [4.61](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1776.4.61)

問曰：此品亦見釋迦，何故偏言見阿閦乎？釋迦此土恒見，阿閦如來今時親覩，就新立稱名見阿閦。又見釋迦在於前品，見阿閦佛在於此品。以阿閦佛此品始見，名見阿閦。

> Question: In this chapter one also sees Śākyamuni; why is it exclusively named "Seeing Akṣobhya"? Śākyamuni is constantly seen in this land, whereas the Tathāgata Akṣobhya is now witnessed directly for the first time; establishing the title with respect to the new, it is named "Seeing Akṣobhya." Furthermore, seeing Śākyamuni was in the preceding chapter, whereas seeing Akṣobhya Buddha is in this chapter. Because Akṣobhya Buddha is seen for the first time in this chapter, it is named "Seeing Akṣobhya."
