Master Huijing’s Dharma Words about Attributes of the Pure Land Sect of Buddhism: Worldly Truths
淨土宗宗風俗諦
(continued)
‘Think compassionately of sentient beings - to treat all people with compassionate heart, and think in the other’s perspective.
‘Treat people generously’ – to fulfil other’s wish with kind and forgiving heart. Ordinary people, whether intentionally or not, always hurt others. We always upset others because we are iniquitous ordinary beings full of greed, hatred and delusion, so it is inevitable.
We should always keep our mind in humility. We hope other people can forgive us, not we forgive others.
「慈念眾生」：對一切人都能以慈悲心、站在他的立場來考量。
「加厚於人」：以寬厚仁愛之心，成全對方。因為凡夫往往有意無意在言語上傷害人家、在行為上讓人家難過，因為都是貪瞋癡的凡夫，都是罪惡生死凡夫，難免如此。
所以我們要存謙下的心，希望他人能原諒自己，而不是自己原諒他人。
Namo Amitabha!
