引勸中，《智論》。彼九十二云：一切菩薩道，皆淨此三業；初淨身口意，後為淨佛土；自身若淨，亦淨他人，何以故？非但一人生國中，皆共作因緣。（同處受生，共業所感；此明菩薩欲取淨土，必須化他令淨三業，乃可同感故也。）今引下二句，以謂一人受生所依報土，悉是多人共業所感；今止取意，不必泥文。謂下，是論自釋。內法是業，即善不善；外法是報，即所依器界；報由業感，故云與也。如惡下，先示三惡因緣，以配三報；且據口意，略不明身；因果相對，尋文可了。不作下，次明三善；反上三報，故云平正也。下舉彌勒為證，彼佛當來人壽八萬歲時出世。引此文者，意彰惡口過重，感報不淨，令自勉也。

In citing the exhortation, the *Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa*: its ninety-second fascicle says: "All bodhisattva paths purify these three karmas; first purifying body, speech, and mind, and afterwards to purify the Buddha-land; if one's own self is pure, one also purifies others. Why is this? Not only does one person take birth in the land; all jointly create the causes and conditions." (Taking birth in the same place is induced by shared karma; this explains that if a bodhisattva wishes to take a pure land, he must transform others to make their three karmas pure, so that they may jointly resonate.) Here citing the latter two lines considers that the retribution land on which one person's birth relies is entirely induced by the shared karma of many people; here we merely take the meaning, without needing to adhere rigidly to the text. "Namely..." is the treatise's own explanation. Internal phenomena are karma, namely good and unwholesome; external phenomena are retribution, namely the dependent vessel world; retribution is induced by karma, and thus it says "gives". Under "like evil...", it first shows the causes and conditions of the three evils to pair with the three retributions; it merely takes speech and mind, briefly omitting body; causes and effects correspond to each other, which can be understood by examining the text. Under "not doing...", it next explains the three virtues; reversing the above three retributions, it thus says "level and upright". Below, Maitreya is adduced as proof; that Buddha will appear in the world in the future when human lifespan is eighty thousand years. Citing this text is intended to manifest that the fault of foul mouth is grave, inducing an impure retribution, to make one exert oneself.
