Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about the Contemplation Sutra
《佛說觀無量壽經》
The entire Contemplation Sutra aims at delivering sentient beings in this world of Fivefold Turbidity, particularly those evil beings suffering from reincarnation. It indicates that ordinary beings are the fundamental and main target of deliverance in the Pure Land teachings. It also explains that, all sentient beings who believe Amitabha’s Fundamental Vow, and recite Amitabha’s Name, will be reborn in the Land of Bliss. It is a Sutra, spoken by Shakyamuni Buddha that best suits the aptitude of sentient beings of the Dharma Ending Age. It is a Sutra revealing the light of Amitabha’s Fundamental Vow and the way that ordinary beings can be delivered.
整部《觀經》始終都是為了救度五濁凡夫、常沒惡人所說的經典;是顯示淨土門所被之機以凡夫為本、為正,為如斯凡夫所說的經典;是說明一切凡夫,但信彌陀本願,但念彌陀名號,皆得往生極樂世界的經典;是釋尊觀見機教成熟而說的一部末法濁世機教相應的經典;是彌陀本願之光、凡夫得救之道的經典。
Namo Amituofo!
