西方合論 3.19

3.19

First, the Daśabhūmika-kleśachedikā-sūtra says: "At that time there were four hundred million people in the assembly who realized that their dying here and being born there was an unbroken chain, with desire being the source of it, and they wished to be born in a land free of desire. The Buddha said: 'To the west, across countless lands from here, there is a Buddha named Immeasurable Life. His land is pure, free of lust, anger, and delusion; birth there is by transformation in a lotus blossom, not through father and mother. You should be born there.'"
