西方合論 3.6

3.6

First, the *Sūtra on Amitābha Expounded by the Buddha*; second, the *Chengzan jingtu fosheshou jing*. These two sūtras derive from the same Sanskrit text; the earlier translation is concise and pure, surpassing the later translation. The Buddha expounded it in the Jeta Grove, Anāthapiṇḍada's park, in the country of Śrāvastī, for Śāriputra; those who read and recite mostly take this sūtra as primary.
