Master Huijing’s Dharma Words about Benefits in Amitabha-recitation

慧淨上人法語
念佛利益

It doesn’t matter whether a person has a faith or not—whether he believes in Buddhism, Catholicism, Christianity, Yiguangdao [a Chinese folk religious sect] or other folk believes, or even he slanders Buddhism with no religious affiliation at all. As long as he recites Amitabha’s name, his body will emit light.

It doesn’t matter whether he recites sincerely, or recite while singing songs of a Taiwanese folk opera, or recite casually, or recite in the middle of an angry remark, “Oh, you guy is really ‘Amitabha Buddha’!”, his body will emits light too. It is because emission of light during name recitation is an innate feature; it just happens naturally. It doesn’t require any intentional act, and also cannot be prevented from happening.

不管這個人是否有信仰？也不管他信仰的是佛教、天主教或者基督教、一貫道、民間的信仰，甚至是毀謗佛教、心中全無信仰，但他只要念佛，身上就會放光。

不管他是虔誠念佛或者邊唱歌仔戲念佛，或者無意中念佛，或者生氣的說：「啊！你這個人真是阿彌陀佛哦！」照樣在他的身上也會放光。因為「念佛放光」是天性之自然，自自然然，不需經過任何的造作，也不可能被阻礙的。

Namo Amitabha!
