慧淨上人法語
佛法知見

“The great matter is not clearly perceived; it looks utterly wretched—as if one has lost his parents.” This saying addresses to those self-powered practitioners who follow the Sagely Path. If a person practices in accordance with the Pure Land teaching, this is not an issue.

In other words, although we do not have the power, we can seek refuge with a powerful person who can help us jump over this hurdle.

所謂「大事未明，如喪考妣」，這是對以自力修聖道法門者來講的，如果是依他力的淨土法門修行，就不成問題了。

也就是說，雖然自己沒有力量，但若能歸投依靠有力量的人，這一關就容易過了。

Namo Amitabha!
