Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about Taking Refuge in Amitabha
皈命彌陀
There is a saying: You don’t know how difficult it is, unless you experience it. When you really practice for a few years or a few decades, you will find and see clearly that you don’t know practicing. You will see that you are really worse, and more inferior in aptitude and capacity.
It also indicates that the transcendental great vows made by Amitabha Buddha are the most virtuous teachings. They are capable of delivering extremely evil sentient beings of the lowest aptitude.
Those beings in the Avici hells are burdened with the heaviest and deepest karmic offenses. However, if they recite Amitabha’s Name, Amitabha Buddha will save them. That is why Amitabha’s Name is known as Agada medicine. (medicine that can eliminate all poisons) If Amitabha’s Name were not Agada medicine, those in Avici hell will never be saved. Thus we know, the teaching of Amitabha-recitation can save anyone.
有一句話說「事非經過不知難」,經過幾年、幾十年,有心修行,才會發現,每過一年,更看清自己不但不會修行,而且真的很卑劣,真的是卑下根機。
那也顯示,阿彌陀佛超發的大願,是以極善最上的法,來救度極惡最下的根機。阿鼻眾生,其惡最重,其罪最深;但,只要念佛,阿彌陀佛也能救他,因此,彌陀佛名,被讚為「阿伽陀藥」。阿鼻眾生,若非彌陀佛名的阿伽陀藥,則永無可救。故知念佛一法,無一人不堪修,無一人不能修。
Namo Amituofo!
