慧淨上人法語
信受彌陀救度
(continued)
The Sutra says, “Deliver the teachings to those poor ordinary beings without their request.” Amitabha Buddha gives us the teaching of rebirth that we—sentient beings in the ten directions—even don’t know to accept. So, in our teaching, we only talk about the teaching of Amitabha’s deliverance, the belief and acceptance of the teaching of Amitabha’s deliverance, and the exclusive recitation of Amitabha’s name due to our belief and acceptance of the teaching of Amitabha’s deliverance.
經文又說:「以不請之法,施諸黎庶。」阿彌陀佛以我們十方眾生不曉得領受的法──往生之法,來布施給我們。因此我們這個法門,是講彌陀救度的法門,是講我們信受彌陀救度的法門,是講我們信受而專稱彌陀名號的法門。
