3.15
Ninth, the Mind-only Pure Land. Personally realizing that one's own mind in its very substance lacks mental nature, with only true wisdom not thinking of purity or defilement, matching truth and following nature, the mind free of obstacles and free of greed and delusion, relying on great compassion and wisdom to bring peace and joy to sentient beings. This is a real Pure Land. Because oneself is pure, it causes others to be pure as well; therefore the Vimalakīrti-sūtra states: 'In accordance with their pure minds, the Buddha land is pure. If one wishes to attain a pure land, one should purify one's mind.' This is a real Pure Land.
