They should fix their mindfulness, recollecting the Buddha's image and reciting Maitreya's name. If for a single thought-moment they observe the eight-precept retreat and cultivate various pure karmas, at the time of death they will immediately be reborn on a lotus pedestal in the Tuṣita Heaven, and promptly behold the light of the Buddha's white curl mark, transcending the sins of birth-and-death of ninety billion kalpas, and according to their past conditions, he will preach the wondrous Dharma for them, causing them to attain non-retrogression.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.59](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1896.2.59) - [Next: 2.61](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1896.2.61) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1896.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1896~en-mt.2.60) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [諸經要集](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.1.38) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1896.2.60](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1896.2.60) · Pramāṇa
