3.87

二、明念報佛善根發者，亦於欲界、未到靜細心中，忽然憶念：「十方諸佛真實圓滿果報之身，湛然常住，色心清淨，微妙寂滅，功德智慧充滿法界，不生不滅，無作無為，豈有王宮之生，亦非雙樹之滅，為化眾生，十方佛土普應生滅。如是等功德無量無邊，不可思議。」作是念時，心定安隱，三昧開發，慧解分明。或作定中見不可思議佛法境界，即便出生無量願行、無量功德、無量智慧三昧法門，是為念報佛善根發相。

2. Explaining the arising of the wholesome roots of recollecting the retribution Buddha: within a calm, subtle mind in the desire realm or the anāgamya stage, one suddenly recollected: 'The true, perfect retribution bodies of the Buddhas of the ten directions are calm and constantly abiding, pure in form and mind, subtle and quiescent, with merits and wisdom filling the Dharma realm. Unborn and unceasing, uncreated and unconditioned, how could there be birth in a royal palace, nor is there cessation beneath the twin trees? In order to transform sentient beings, they universally respond with birth and cessation across the Buddha lands of the ten directions. Merits such as these are immeasurable, boundless, and inconceivable.' When reflecting in this way, the mind is concentrated, serene, and stable, samādhi develops, and insight and understanding are clear. Or in concentration one sees inconceivable realms of the Buddha-dharma, whereupon immeasurable vows and practices, immeasurable merits, and immeasurable Dharma gates of wisdom and samādhi are produced. These are the signs of the arising of the wholesome roots of recollecting the retribution Buddha.
