廬山蓮宗寶鑑 6.18

6.18

《維摩詰經》云「眾香世界菩薩問曰：『菩薩成就幾法，於此世界行無瘡疣、生于淨土？』維摩詰言：『菩薩成就八法，於此世界行無瘡疣、生于淨土。何等為八？饒益眾生而不望報；代一切眾生受諸苦惱；所作功德盡以施之；等心眾生謙下無閡；於諸菩薩視之如佛，所未聞經聞之不疑；不與聲聞而相違背；不嫉彼供不高己利，而於其中調伏其心；常省己過不訟彼短，恒以一心求諸功德。是為八法，行無瘡疣、生於淨土。』」

The Vimalakīrti-sūtra says: "A bodhisattva of the Sarvagandhasugandhā world asked: 'Accomplishing how many dharmas does a bodhisattva practice in this world without blemish and take birth in the Pure Land?' Vimalakīrti said: 'A bodhisattva accomplishes eight dharmas to practice in this world without blemish and take birth in the Pure Land. What are the eight? Benefiting living beings without expecting a reward; bearing all afflictions on behalf of all living beings; dedicating all merits one produces to them; being equal-minded toward living beings, humble and without hindrance; regarding all bodhisattvas as the Buddha, and hearing sūtras not heard before without doubting them; not going contrary to the śrāvakas; not being jealous of others' offerings nor proud of one's own gain, but subduing one's mind therein; constantly examining one's own faults and not speaking of others' shortcomings, always seeking all merits with single-mindedness. These are the eight dharmas by which one practices without blemish and is born in the Pure Land.'"
