2.238

一切國土中。諸有地獄處。輒往到于彼。勉濟其苦惱。一切國土中畜生相食噉。皆現生於彼。為之作利益 六二行明入惡趣救物合有鬼趣。又無者略也。什曰。如過去世時人無禮義欲殘害長老。猴象及鳥推敬長老。令人獸修善咸相和順。如大智論中說。

"In all the lands, / Wherever there are hells, / He always goes to those places / To deliver and save them from their sufferings. / In all the lands, / Where animals devour one another, / He manifests birth among them all / To bring benefit to them." / Part six: two verses clarify entering the evil destinies to save beings. This includes the realm of hungry ghosts, which is omitted here for brevity. [Kumāra]jīva says: "Just as in a past age, when people lacked etiquette and righteousness and wished to harm elders, monkeys, elephants, and birds showed respect to elders, causing humans and beasts to cultivate good and all live in harmony, as told in the Mahāprajñāpāramitā-śāstra."
