Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about the Attributes of the Pure Land School: Worldly Truths
淨土宗宗風俗諦

The greatest karmic reward of a person is “no business”. It is just like a fairy tale if there is no business in a day. In an organization, if a person has no opportunity to become an executive, and he has nothing to do, he is actually a person with the greatest karmic reward. He should eat well, sleep well, recite Namo Amituofo well, not argue with others, and not ask for anything. Don’t you think he is living a fairy tale every day?

If everyone is like him, the Buddhist center will be stable, and all of the members will be at peace. If everyone minds their own business and practices with ease, the center will be prosperous. Thus, an ancient scholar says, “No business is the cause of prosperity for a Dharma organization.”

一個人最大的福報就是「無事」,所謂「一日無事賽神仙」。所以在團體當中,如果還沒有機緣領執事,沒有什麼事可做,其實他是最有福報的人;他只要好好吃飯、好好睡覺、好好念佛,與人無爭、於事無求,豈非天天賽神仙?

如果住眾人人都能這樣,則道場安定,住眾安寧,彼此相安無事,人人身安道隆;所以古德說「道場以無事為興隆」。

Namo Amituofo!
