成唯識論述記 3.247

3.247

The Commentary states: The word 'and so forth' here includes the two vehicles and various lesser bodhisattvas. 'Other directions' means outside the three-thousand-fold world; 'this world' means this Sahā world. They would have to transform in reality into the pure and marvelous lands of other directions and of their own realm. If it were through the supernormal power of buddhas and bodhisattvas acting as emanations, I would not preclude it either; it is just discussed in terms of the real. However, pure and marvelous lands exist separately in other directions, such as Sukhāvatī and so forth, and also exist in this world, such as Vulture Peak and so forth. As for defiled pure lands, external-teaching ordinary beings should also not transform into them, because they cannot use them.
