論「有多菩薩至有無邊佛現」,大眾部等釋所以有多菩薩修菩薩行,理許多人得成於佛。一界一佛理且可然,多界多佛何理能遮?

On the Śāstra's words, "There are many bodhisattvas ... there are boundless Buddhas appearing": The Mahāsāṃghikas and others explain the reason: Since there are many bodhisattvas cultivating the bodhisattva path, in principle many persons should be permitted to attain Buddhahood. That there is one Buddha in one realm may be accepted in principle, but what principle could prevent multiple Buddhas in multiple realms?
