慧淨上人法語
念佛利益

Master Shandao says, “Name-recitation one after the other means repenting all the time”. It is repentance when we recite Amitabha’s name one after the other. Always recite means always repent.

He also says, “Amitabha’s name is a sharp sword. By one recitation, all karmic offenses can be cut off.” That is to say, it is relatively difficult to eradicate and atone for offenses by means of other cultivating practices. Only recitation of this name – Namo Amituofo—is the quickest way.

善導大師說：「念念稱名常懺悔」。我們在念念稱名之中就是在懺悔，常常念佛就是常常在懺悔。

又說：「利劍即是彌陀號，一聲稱念罪皆除」。也就是說，要滅罪贖罪，以其他的修行方法，都是比較困難的，就只有稱念這一句「南無阿彌陀佛」最快。

Namo Amitabha!
