Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about Faith in Pure Land Buddhism
淨土信仰
All teachings are equal; but, the one that “cures your disease” is the best. We exclusively recite Amitabha’s Name. Though we have not cut off the Two Delusions, of View and Afflictions, we can leave the cycle of birth-and-death, and also attain rebirth in the Land of Bliss, a realm of nirvana.
For that reason, Amitabha-recitation is the “best” prescription. It enables ordinary beings to become sagely beings, and become Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. If there is no such prescription, how can iniquitous sentient beings in this defiled world attain liberation from the cycle of birth-and-death?
法無高下，對症則良。但念彌陀，雖不斷見思二惑，亦出生死，且生涅槃之極樂。
故念佛是超凡入聖成佛作祖之良方也；五濁凡愚，無此良方，生死焉脫！
Namo Amituofo!
