論云「又於十方現有無量無數三千大千佛土,無二菩薩同時修集菩提資糧,俱時圓滿,於一佛土並出於世,一時成佛,況有無量無數菩薩於一世界一時成佛」者,今此意明有修菩提資糧一時圓滿眾多菩薩,若不於餘世界一時成佛,而於一世界眾多菩薩一時成佛者,不然,破小執言無十方佛故。後下文云「若並住覩史天次第成佛者」,不然。此中有難:如一時發願,一時圓滿,眾生並在一世界,一佛眾生一時根熟,如何通?義曰:無此者。若爾,彌勒、釋迦眾生尚有前後根熟而不相同,何況一時根熟眾生同在一界。
Regarding the treatise's statement, "Furthermore, there currently exist in the ten directions immeasurable and innumerable great trichiliocosms of buddha-fields. There are no two bodhisattvas who simultaneously cultivate and amass the provisions for awakening, fulfill them at the same time, simultaneously appear in the world in a single buddha-field, and become Buddhas at one and the same time; how much less could there be immeasurable and innumerable bodhisattvas becoming Buddhas at one and the same time in a single world": the intention here is to clarify that there are numerous bodhisattvas who cultivate the provisions for awakening and fulfill them at the same time; if they do not become Buddhas at the same time in other worlds, yet multiple bodhisattvas were to become Buddhas at the same time in a single world, this cannot be, because it refutes the narrow adherence claiming that there are no Buddhas of the ten directions. The subsequent passage below says, "If they were to reside side by side in Tuṣita Heaven and attain buddhahood in succession," which is not correct. An objection is raised here: If they generate the vow at the same time and fulfill it at the same time, and sentient beings are together in a single world, and the faculties of the sentient beings of a single Buddha ripen at the same time, how is this resolved? The doctrinal explanation is: This never happens. If it were so, even the sentient beings of Maitreya and Śākyamuni have faculties ripening earlier and later rather than identically, how much less could sentient beings whose faculties ripen at the same time be together in a single realm.
