Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about Faith in Pure Land Buddhism
淨土信仰
Master Honen said, “Practitioners of the Sacred Path pursue excellence in wisdom, in order to liberate themselves from reincarnation of birth-and-death. Practitioners of the Pure Land Path return to the ignorant state in order to attain rebirth in the Land of Bliss.
A person who practices this Pure Land teaching will eventually realize his ignorance. He will not compare or differentiate anything; but, only recite Namo Amituofo… Namo Amituofo.” Though people praise him, he doesn’t spend time with them. He only recites Namo Amituofo... Namo Amituofo! When people scold him, he doesn’t argue and dispute; but, only recites Namo Amituofo... Namo Amituofo!”
法然上人說:聖道門之修行者,極智慧離生死;淨土門之修行者,還愚癡生極樂。
學這個法門的人,最後都要像一個愚人。愚人什麼都不分別計較,只會南無阿彌陀佛、南無阿彌陀佛。別人讚歎他,他也不會應酬,他只是南無阿彌陀佛、南無阿彌陀佛......。別人罵他、毀謗他,他也不會去計較,也是南無阿彌陀佛、南無阿彌陀佛......。
Namo Amituofo!
