慧淨上人法語
淨土宗宗旨

All buddhas in the ten directions speak of teachings of deliverance of sentient beings; however, at the very end, they conclude with the Pure Land teaching that has enabled numerous beings—not one or two—to attain buddhahood. Our teaching is really a dharma gate that has directed numerous beings to achieve buddhahood, as many as trees in the forest.  Unless you don’t exclusively recite Amitabha’s name, and don’t aspire to be reborn in Amitabha’s Pure Land, otherwise, none of those who aspire and exclusively recite the name will fail to attain rebirth.

十方諸佛所說的度眾生之法，歸根究底就是要說這一個成佛如林的淨土法門。因為祂要廣度眾生，如果只是度一個兩個，那就太枉費祂來成佛說法。我們這個法門真的是成佛如林的法門。不專稱彌陀佛名則已，不願生彌陀淨土則已，只要他願生，只要他專稱，就沒有一個不能往生的。

Namo Amitabha!
