佛說觀佛三昧海經 4.29

4.29

佛告阿難：「若善男子善女人作是思惟時，如是憶想者、夢見此事者，生生之處恒常值遇普賢、文殊！是法王子，為眾行者夢中恒說過去未來三世佛法；說《首楞嚴三昧》、《般舟三昧》，亦說《觀佛三昧》以為瓔珞，覺已憶持無所忘失。此人現世功德天女以為給使，除却十萬億劫生死之罪。如是觀者名為正觀，若異觀者名為邪觀。

The Buddha told Ānanda: “If good men and good women, when engaging in such reflection, remember and think in this way, or dream of this matter, then in every place they are born they will constantly encounter Samantabhadra and Mañjuśrī. These Princes of the Dharma will constantly preach the Buddha-Dharma of the past, future, and three times to the practitioners in their dreams; they will preach the Śūraṅgama-samādhi and the Pratyutpanna-samādhi, and also preach the Buddhānusmṛti-samādhi as an adornment, so that upon awakening they will remember and retain it without forgetting. In this present life, such a person will have the Goddess of Merit as their attendant, and the sins of birth and death of one hundred thousand koṭis of kalpas will be eliminated. One who contemplates in this way is termed one who practices right contemplation; if one contemplates otherwise, it is termed wrong contemplation.”
