四、悲願行者，諸佛菩薩，性海無盡，供養無盡，戒施無盡，乃至饒益無盡。如普賢發十大願：虛空界眾生界，無有盡時，而我此願，亦無有盡，身語意業，無有疲厭，名為願王。一切諸佛，無不成就如是願王，證涅槃果。故天親菩薩淨土五念門，以禮拜、讚歎、作願、觀察前四種，為成就入功德門；回向一切煩惱眾生，拔世間苦，為成就出功德門。菩薩修五念門，速得阿耨多羅三藐三菩提。

Fourth is the practice of compassionate vows. For all buddhas and bodhisattvas, the sea of nature is inexhaustible, offerings are inexhaustible, precepts and giving are inexhaustible, and so forth, up to benefiting beings being inexhaustible. As Samantabhadra made his ten great vows: 'When the realm of space and the realm of sentient beings have an end, my vows will also have an end; yet as body, speech, and mind karma never tire or weary, they are named the king of vows.' All buddhas without exception accomplish such a king of vows to realize the fruit of nirvāṇa. Therefore, Bodhisattva Vasubandhu's five gates of mindfulness for the Pure Land take the former four—prostration, praise, making vows, and contemplation—as the accomplishment of the gate of entering merit; and dedicating [merit] to all afflicted sentient beings to uproot the suffering of the world as the accomplishment of the gate of exiting merit. A bodhisattva cultivating the five gates of mindfulness swiftly attains anuttarasamyaksaṃbodhi.
