慧淨上人法語
人生目的

Rebirth in the Land of Bliss means not only liberation from reincarnation within the Six Realms, but also having the same infinite lifespan and infinite light of Amitabha Buddha, as well as full possession of merits and virtues of the 48 vows. So, rebirth in the Land of Bliss is the goal of our life, and also the most noble and supreme goal among the 84,000 Buddhist teachings. This can be considered as the crystallization of the Buddhist teachings, and the final and ultimate practice of all schools. The method of rebirth, however, is so simple and easy – anyone can make it by merely reciting “Namo Amituofo”.

往生極樂不只是永遠脫離了六道輪迴，且能擁有與阿彌陀佛相同的無量壽命、無量光明，具足四十八大願的功德。所以，往生極樂是人生目的，也是佛教八萬四千法門中最崇高的目標；可說是佛法的結晶、所有行法的歸宗結頂。而往生的方法又很簡易，只要稱念「南無阿彌陀佛」就可以了。

Namo Amitabha!
