遊心安樂道 1.19

1.19

又言「女人及根缺」者，謂生彼時，非女、非根缺耳，非此女等不得往生，如韋提希而得生故。然《鼓音聲王陀羅尼經》曰：「阿彌陀佛，父名月上轉輪聖王，母名曰殊勝妙眼」等，乃至廣說者，或曰：「是說化佛所居化土，論所說者是受用土。」或言：「是法門父母，如《維摩》說。」由是道理，故不相違。

Furthermore, as for saying 'women and those with defective sense faculties,' it means that when reborn there, they are neither female nor defective in faculties; it does not mean that women and such cannot attain rebirth, for Vaidehī was able to attain rebirth. However, the Gu-yin-sheng-wang tuoluoni jing says: 'Amitābha Buddha's father was named Moon-Above (Candrottara), a wheel-turning sage king; his mother was named Supremely Wondrous Eye,' and so forth at length. Some say: 'This speaks of a transformation land inhabited by a transformation Buddha, whereas what is spoken of in the treatise is the enjoyment land.' Others say: 'These are parents of the Dharma-gate, as explained in the Vimalakīrti[-nirdeśa].' By these principles, therefore, there is no contradiction.
