錢唐法慧寶閣照律師，為出家五眾修淨土懺法。無為子見而題其後曰「樂土清淨，非願力不能生；濁世罪尤，非懺悔不能去。罪如瓦石，投水必沈；願力為舟，載之則濟。既超彼岸，念念菩提，三寶威神，惡皆消殞。如是觀者，下品之懺悔也。罪如氷雪積於最陰、大陽融和氷雪消釋，嚴凝一變，潤澤萠芽。如是觀者，中品之懺悔也。如太虛曠徹空寂，塵不能坌、水不能洗，行住坐臥孰非彌陀？生死去來孰非淨土？如是觀者，上品之懺悔也。苟悟于此，心滅罪亡，或未圓成，尤先懺法。示五眾等，當遵是言。」（見《無為集》）

Vinaya Master Zhao of the Fahuibaoge in Qiantang cultivated the Pure Land repentance liturgy for the five assemblies of renunciants. Wuweizi saw it and inscribed on the back: 'The Land of Bliss is pure; without the power of vows, one cannot be reborn there. The sins and faults of the defiled world cannot be removed without repentance. Sins are like tiles and stones: thrown into water, they must sink; the power of vows is a boat: carrying them, it crosses over. Once one has transcended to the other shore, thought after thought is bodhi; through the majestic spiritual power of the Three Jewels, evil is entirely extinguished. One who contemplates like this performs the lowest grade of repentance. Sins are like ice and snow accumulated in the deepest shade; when the great sun is mild and harmonious, the ice and snow melt away; severe freezing transforms completely, nurturing and moistening the sprouts. One who contemplates like this performs the middle grade of repentance. Like the great void, spacious, penetrating, empty, and tranquil, which dust cannot soil and water cannot wash: in walking, standing, sitting, and lying down, what is not Amitābha? In birth, death, going, and coming, what is not the Pure Land? One who contemplates like this performs the highest grade of repentance. If one awakens to this, the mind is extinguished and sins vanish; yet if one has not achieved this perfection, repentance liturgy should take precedence. This is shown to the five assemblies; they should follow these words.' (Found in the Wuwei ji)
