Master Huijing’s Dharma Words about Attributes of the Pure Land School of Buddhism: Worldly Truths
淨土宗宗風俗諦
(continued)
The content of the Worldly Truths in the Attributes of our school is derived from the two kinds of determinant deep faith of aptitude, and of the teaching. Although it is impossible to follow the guiding rules, it is fine that we strive, in our best endeavor, to do in accordance with our own capacities and duties. It is just like an elephant can suck more water from the sea than a horse, and a horse can take more water than a deer. If it is a mosquito, the water it sucks will be even much less.
宗風俗諦的內容，都是從「機法兩種深信」開展出來的，雖然沒辦法全部做到，但就像面對大海，大象能吸的水就較多，相較於大象，馬所吸的水就較少，鹿所吸的又更少，而如果是一隻蚊子，所吸的水就少之又少了。總之，隨每個人的根機隨分盡力去做就對了。
Namo Amituofo!
