Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about Attributes of the Pure Land School: Worldly Truths
淨土宗宗風俗諦
A practitioner should gently nourish a peaceful and serene mind. The method is: sit quietly and recite Amitabha’s Name when we get up in the morning; keep silent or talk as little as we can for whatever time we can afterward. We do this because we cannot experience the “taste” of the world if we don’t have a serene mind. Just as in tasting food, we must eat slowly. The truths of the universe are very fine and delicate. In order to TOUCH them, we must quiet our minds.
修行人最好能善自培養寧靜的心。方法是早上起來先靜坐念佛,平日與人見面,儘量不要說話,話愈少愈好。因為,天下間的滋味,如果沒有寧靜的心,沒辦法體會。就像食物的味道,需要細細的咀嚼;而宇宙的真理很微細,我們必須以寂靜的心,才能體會,才能夠和宇宙的真理相TOUCH。
Namo Amituofo!
