西方合論 2.17

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [2.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1976.2.17)

天如《或問》曰：「禪宗悟達之士，既曰見性成佛，焉肯復求淨土？」答曰：「悟達之士，政願求生。汝但未悟，使汝既悟，淨土之趨，萬牛莫挽。」

> Tianru's \*Doubts and Inquiries\* says: “Since enlightened and realized masters of the Chan school say, ‘Seeing one’s nature, one becomes a Buddha,’ how could they still be willing to seek the Pure Land?” Answer: “It is precisely the enlightened and realized masters who vow to seek rebirth. It is merely that you have not yet awakened; if you were awakened, ten thousand oxen could not hold back your rush toward the Pure Land.”
