諸經要集 2.111

2.111

又大悲經云。佛告阿難。於我法中但使性是沙門。污沙門行自稱沙門。形似沙門。當有被著袈裟衣者。於此賢劫彌勒為首。乃至最後盧遮如來。彼諸沙門如是千佛於無餘涅槃界。次第當得入般涅槃。無有遺餘。何以故。如是一切諸沙門中。乃至一稱佛名一生信者。所作功德終不虛設。阿難。我以佛智測知法界非不測知。阿難。所有白業得白報。黑業得黑報。若有淨心諸眾生等。作是稱言南無佛者。彼人以是善根。必定得近涅槃。何況值佛親承供養。

Furthermore, the Sūtra of Great Compassion states: The Buddha addressed Ānanda: "In my teaching, as long as someone's nature is that of a śramaṇa, even if they defile the conduct of a śramaṇa, call themselves a śramaṇa, and possess the semblance of a śramaṇa, and there are those who wear the kāṣāya robe—in this Auspicious Kalpa, beginning with Maitreya and ending with the final Tathāgata Rocana, all such śramaṇas will in sequence enter parinirvāṇa across the realm of nirvāṇa without residue of those thousand buddhas, leaving none behind. Why is this? Because among all such śramaṇas, even those who have uttered the Buddha's name once or generated faith once, the merit they have created will ultimately not be in vain. Ānanda, with buddha-wisdom I measure and know the realm of dharmas; there is nothing I do not measure and know. Ānanda, all white karma receives white retribution, and black karma receives black retribution. If there are living beings with pure minds who say 'Namo Buddhāya', by virtue of these wholesome roots they will definitely draw near to nirvāṇa; how much more so those who encounter a buddha and personally offer him veneration and alms!"
