「爾時釋迦牟尼佛即申右手摩行者頂,一切化佛亦申右手摩行者頂,得此觀者,名佛現前三昧;亦名念佛三昧;亦名觀佛色身三昧。爾時諸佛異口同音,各各皆為行者說法,雖未得道,見佛聞法總持不失,此名凡夫念佛三昧。得此三昧者,剎那剎那頃恒見諸佛,於念念頃聞佛說法,所謂大乘方等經典,一日一夜即得通利。父母生身惱濁惡世,以念佛故得聞總持,捨身他世必得見佛,於諸佛所得千萬億旋陀羅尼,得陀羅尼已八十億佛各申右手摩行者頂,一一諸佛皆說決言:『汝念佛故過星宿劫得成為佛,身相光明與我無異!』說是語已八十億佛一時放光,光中復有無量化佛,一一化佛皆說是語。」

"Then Śākyamuni Buddha extends his right hand to stroke the crown of the practitioner's head, and all the transformation Buddhas also extend their right hands to stroke the crown of the practitioner's head. One who attains this contemplation is said to have the samādhi of the Buddhas' direct presence; it is also called the buddhānusmṛti-samādhi; it is also called the samādhi of contemplating the Buddha's rūpakāya. At that time, all the Buddhas, with one voice, each preach the Dharma for the practitioner. Although they have not yet attained the Path, having seen the Buddhas and heard the Dharma, they retain it completely without loss; this is called the ordinary person's buddhānusmṛti-samādhi. One who attains this samādhi constantly sees the Buddhas moment by moment, and in every single thought-moment hears the Buddhas preach the Dharma—namely the Mahāyāna vaipulya scriptures—attaining mastery of them in a single day and night. Born from parents with a physical body in an afflicted, turbid, and evil world, by virtue of mindfulness of the Buddha one hears and retains the dhāraṇīs. Casting off this body in another life, one is certain to see the Buddhas, and in the presence of the Buddhas attains tens of millions of millions of whirling dhāraṇīs. Having attained the dhāraṇīs, eighty billion Buddhas each extend their right hand to stroke the crown of the practitioner's head, and each and every Buddha speaks words of prediction: 'Because of your mindfulness of the Buddha, after passing beyond the Nakṣatra Kalpa, you shall become a Buddha, your physical marks and radiant light being no different from mine!' Having spoken these words, the eighty billion Buddhas emit light all at once, and within the light there are again immeasurable transformation Buddhas, each transformation Buddha speaking these very words."
