第六願使某作佛時。令八方上下無央數佛國諸天人民。若善男子善女人。欲來生我國。用我故益作善。若分檀布施繞塔燒香。散華然燈懸雜繒綵。飯食沙門起塔作寺。斷愛欲齋戒清淨一心念我。晝夜一日不斷絕。皆令來生我國作菩薩。得是願乃作佛。不得是願終不作佛。

"Sixth vow: May it be that when I become a Buddha, if among the devas and humans of the countless Buddha-lands in the eight directions, above and below, there are good sons or good daughters who wish to come and be born in my land and on my account multiply their good deeds—whether giving in charity, circumambulating stūpas, burning incense, scattering flowers, lighting lamps, hanging assorted silken banners, offering food to śramaṇas, building stūpas and constructing temples, severing craving and desire, keeping the fasts and precepts purely, and single-mindedly being mindful of me day and night without interruption—may they all be caused to come and be born in my land as bodhisattvas. If I obtain this vow, only then will I become a Buddha; if I do not obtain this vow, I will never become a Buddha.
