Master Huijing’s Dharma Words about Faith in Pure Land
淨土信仰

For Buddhists, it is our duty to practice various virtues. However, we cannot rely on these flawed virtues for rebirth in Amitabha’s flawless Pure Land, so we have to rely solely on the practice of Amitabha-recitation.

For Buddhists, it is our duty not to do evil. However, as ordinary beings with physical body, it is inevitable for us to have afflictions due to false and miscellaneous thoughts, so we have to be embraced, without forsaking, by Amitabha’s light.

學佛之人,理當眾善奉行,然有漏之善,無法憑以往生彌陀無漏之淨土,故往生當憑念佛一行。

學佛之人,理當諸惡莫作,然凡夫之身,難免妄想雜念之煩惱,故彌陀光明攝取不捨。

Namo Amitabha!
