Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about Deep Faith in Aptitude and Teaching
機法深信
Master Shandao teaches us that Deep faith in teaching means: “When sentient beings recite the Buddha’s name they must be reborn.” To understand deep faith in aptitude, we can ask ourselves: If we affirm that we have no karmic condition to leave the cycle of birth-and-death, we will have deep faith in aptitude within our affirmation.
Because of “when sentient beings recite the Buddha’s name , they must be reborn,” a Pure Land practitioner is better off discarding any idea of pursuing any kind of feeling during Amitabha-recitation.
法深信,就是善導大師所講的:「眾生稱念,必得往生。」至於機深信,我們可以自問:若真確認自己無有出離之緣的話,機的深信就在裏面了。
因為「眾生稱念,必得往生」,所以淨土行人最好不要去追尋某一種感受,要把那種觀念捨掉。
Namo Amituofo!
