### [1.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2759.1.9)

第一勸修。從其有眾生生彼國者。此土眾生殖因既久發心。往生因得信首五根已立。在不退位中假名空成就。是正定聚人　即應前四十八願中設我得佛國中天人皆悉於住正定之聚也。所以者何。釋所以住於正定之聚者。皆由修因真正故墮正定聚也。

> The first exhortation: from "If there are sentient beings who are born in that land": sentient beings of this land, having planted causes long ago, generate the intention \[for awakening\]; when the cause for rebirth is obtained, faith is foremost and the five faculties are already established. Within the avaivartika position, the emptiness of nominal designation is accomplished, and they are people of the samyaktva-niyata-rāśi, which corresponds to the earlier vow among the forty-eight vows: "If, when I attain Buddhahood, the gods and humans in my land should not all dwell in the samyaktva-niyata-rāśi..." "For what reason?": in explaining why they dwell in the samyaktva-niyata-rāśi, it is because their cultivation of causes is true and correct that they enter the samyaktva-niyata-rāśi.
