"And aniyata-rāśi": within correct practice, they do not regress into wrong practices. "The Tathāgatas, Buddhas as numerous as the sands of the Ganges in the ten directions, all praise Amitāyus Buddha together": this explains why Amitāyus Buddha requires this praise—it is for the sake of the sentiments of the times, to cause them to generate yearning, and through reaching that state of sentiment to cultivate the causes and seize the fruit. "Awe-inspiring supernormal power and merit": "awe-inspiring" points to the outer virtue; "supernormal" points to the inner virtue. The outer coverage of holy wisdom is "awe-inspiring"; secretly coming to benefit our internal understanding is "supernormal." "Merit": through practicing effort and advancing, they obtain this goodness; hence it is called "merit." "All sentient beings who hear his name, rejoice with faith, even for a single thought-moment": sentient beings, hearing praise of that land's purity and exquisite bliss, all generate the utmost mind, uninterrupted thought-moment by thought-moment, vowing to be born in that land. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2759.1.9) - [Next: 1.11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2759.1.11) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2759.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2759~en-mt.1.10) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2759.1.10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2759.1.10) · Pramāṇa
