Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about the Infinite Life Sutra
《佛說無量壽經》
There are four periods in the dissemination of the Buddhist teachings in the world: the first period is the Proper Dharma Period, the second is the Semblance Dharma Period, the third is the Ending Dharma Period, and the fourth is the Extinction Dharma Period. We are now in the Ending Dharma Period, which lasts for ten thousand years. Once it lapses, all sutras will naturally vanish except this Infinite Life Sutra.
So, only the Pure Land teaching is the original intent of Shakyamuni Buddha. This is because the Infinite Life Sutra, spoken by Shakyamuni Buddha, will not vanish. It will continue to deliver sentient beings in the world, when all other teachings have been extinguished.
佛法流通在我們這個世間有四個時期：第一個時期叫做正法時期，第二個叫做 像法時期，第三個叫做末法時期，第四個叫做滅法時期（沒有法了）。 我們現在就是末法時期，末法時期有一萬年的時間，一萬年的時間過了，所有 其他經典就自自然然地消失掉了，沒有消失的就是這部《無量壽經》。
所以， 唯有淨土法門才是釋迦牟尼佛本懷中的本懷，因為即使將來所有的法都滅了， 宣說釋迦牟尼佛本懷的這部《無量壽經》不會滅，會繼續留在世間度眾生。
Namo Amituofo!
