維摩經略疏 10.55

10.55

第五、時眾發心修行，為二：一發心、二發願。有十四那由他即悟者，皆是上來種種說法、種種神變正說將竟，現此淨國，俱蒙如來勸發，是故一時便有十四那由他得悟也。二、發願者，淨行深微不易可辨，立誓生彼於彼修行，此中佛記即應當生。得記有二：一遠、二近。若是立誓之後必定生彼，即是近記。若是修淨行因必招淨土之果，如彼佛國，即是遠記。

Fifth, the assembly's generating the mind and cultivating practice, which has two parts: first, generating the mind, and second, making vows. That there were fourteen nayutas who were immediately awakened is because the various teachings and various supernatural transformations described above were coming to the close of the main teaching section; displaying this pure land, they all received the Tathāgata's exhortation and inspiring impulse, so that fourteen nayutas attained awakening all at once. Second, regarding the vows: pure practice is profound and subtle, not easy to discern; making a vow to be born there and cultivate practice there, here the Buddha's prophecy means that they certainly shall be born there. The receiving of prophecy has two aspects: first, distant, and second, immediate. If, having made the vow, one is certain to be born there, that is an immediate prophecy. If cultivating the causes of pure practice is certain to bring about the result of a pure land, like that buddha-land, that is a distant prophecy.
