Sahā is a defiled land; Sukhāvatī is a pure land. The lifespan in Sahā is limited; the lifespan in that land is limitless. Sahā is replete with all sufferings; that land is peaceful and without suffering. In Sahā, one revolves through birth and death in accordance with karma; once one goes to that land, one eternally realizes anutpattika-dharma-kṣānti, and if one vows to deliver sentient beings, one acts at will with sovereignty, no longer turned about by various karmas. Their purity and defilement, length of lifespan, suffering and joy, and birth and death have such distinctions, yet sentient beings are blindly unaware of them—how can this not be lamentable? > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1961.1.2) - [Next: 1.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1961.1.4) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1961.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1961~en-mt.1.3) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [念佛鏡](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1966.1.3) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1961.1.3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1961.1.3) · Pramāṇa
