四攝法是菩薩淨土。菩薩成佛時解脫所攝眾生來生其國　肇曰。以四事攝眾生為四。攝也。一者惠施。財法隨彼所須。二者愛心。和言隨彼所適。三者利行。隨彼所利方便利之。四者同事。遇惡同惡而濟惡。遇善同善而進善。菩薩以此為解脫生死而攝眾生不同。凡夫為恩愛名利王法等相攝縛也。

"The four means of embracing are the bodhisattva's pure land; when the bodhisattva attains buddhahood, sentient beings embraced by liberation come to be born in his land." Sengzhao says: "Embracing sentient beings through four matters constitutes the four means of embracing: first, giving, offering wealth and Dharma according to what they require; second, affectionate speech, speaking gentle words according to what suits them; third, beneficial conduct, providing skillful benefit according to what benefits them; fourth, working together, meeting evil by joining them to save them from evil, and meeting good by joining them to advance their good. The bodhisattva uses these to liberate beings from birth and death, embracing them in a way unlike ordinary people who bind each other through affection, fame, profit, royal laws, and the like."
