慧淨上人法語
念佛利益
慧淨上人法語
念佛利益
(continued)
If we want to dissolve those karmas and repay the karmic debts, accumulation of merits through practicing worldly virtues is absolutely impossible. If we want to dissolve and repay them by our own effort—to attain merits and virtues through practicing Buddhist teachings, it is also impossible.
Then, what can we do? Rely on “Namo Amituofo”. Namo Amituofo is the great name of a myriad of virtues and possesses all kinds of merits and virtues of all practices, of which the quantity is inconceivable, immeasurable, and boundless.
By recitng “Namo Amituofo” solely and exclusively, we can repay all karmic debts (obstruction) of our past lives, reduce the retributions from heavy to light, and transform retributions in future lives to the present life, or even dissolve them completely.
如果靠我們行善積德，想要來化解、償還這種業，是絕對不可能的；靠自己修持佛法的功德來化解償還，也不可能。
那要怎麼辦？就是靠「南無阿彌陀佛」。這句 「南無阿彌陀佛」萬德洪名，具足所有的善行功德，而且多到不可思議、無量無邊。
我們只要專念「南無阿彌陀佛」，生生世世的業障都能夠償還，轉重報為輕報， 轉未來報為現世報，甚至完全化解。
Namo Amitabha!
