集諸經禮懺儀 1.304

1.304

禮佛功德。若有善男子善女人，犯四重五逆、誹謗三寶及犯四波羅夷，是人罪重。假使如閻浮提履地變為微塵，一一微塵成於一劫，是人有若干劫罪，稱是一佛名號禮拜者，如上等罪皆悉消滅，是人功德不可思議。

The merit of bowing to the Buddha: If a good man or good woman has committed the four grave transgressions, the five rebellious acts, slandered the Triratna, or committed the four pārājikas, such a person's sins are heavy. Even if the ground trodden throughout Jambudvīpa were turned into fine dust, each particle becoming an eon, and such a person possessed sins amounting to that many eons, if they chant the name of this single Buddha and pay homage to Him, all the sins mentioned above will be completely annihilated, and this person's merit will be inconceivable.
