慧淨上人法語
念佛利益
We really cannot bear the karma of everlasting reincarnation of birth-and-death within the Six Realms, without any chance to get away. However, if this karmic hindrance is taken over and borne by Amitabha Buddha, it can be easily handled: he can help us to be reborn in the Land of Bliss in the present life.
It doesn’t mean that we will be reborn within a short period of time as we aspire to be reborn in the Land of Bliss and exclusively recite Amitabha’s name. It is not like this. On the contrary, if we recite Amitabha’s name exclusively, we shall certainly receive more blessings and enjoy a longer life. When the time comes, we will be reborn immediately. If the time does not come yet, we will continue to enjoy the present life under the protection and embrace of Amitabha Buddha.
我們真的承受不起永恆的在六道生死輪迴，無有出離之緣，而這業障由阿彌陀佛承擔，可說輕而易舉，當生就能夠讓我們往生極樂世界。
不是說我現在發願要往生極樂世界，專稱彌陀名號，短期間就會往生，不是這樣的。反而專一念佛，確定可以增福延壽，時間一到，就往生極樂世界，時間還沒到，我們就過著在現世受彌陀保護的生活。
Namo Amitabha!
