慧淨上人法語
信受彌陀救度

Our school is a teaching of reliance on Amitabha’s deliverance. For reliability of rebirth and kind of rebirth, the reliance on Amitabha Buddha should be complete in entirety, no reliance on our effort, no reliance on our merits and virtues, no reliance on meditative practices, no reliance on entering Samadhi through Amitabha-recitation. It is not relying on the dedication of a myriad of the Six Paramitas or other virtuous practices accumulated in this life in order to be more reliable in rebirth and to attain higher level of rebirth.

我們這個法門是靠阿彌陀佛救度的法門，完全靠阿彌陀佛，不是靠我們的功夫，也不是靠我們的功德。不是靠能打坐入定，不是念佛能進入三昧，往生才可靠，往生的品位才會比較高；也不是靠現世累積的六度萬行、行善積德迴向，這樣往生才可靠、往生的品位才高，都不是這樣。

Namo Amitabha!
