Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about the Amitabha Sutra

《佛說阿彌陀經》

The Amitabha Sutra says, “If a good man or woman hears of Amitabha Buddha and holds fast to his Name for one day, two days, three days, four days, five days, six days, or seven days, single-mindedly and without deviation.”

This paragraph indicates the main cause of rebirth. It is abundant in virtuous roots and abundant in meritorious blessings.

Apart from that, all of the other 84,000 teachings are not the main cause of rebirth. This is because they are not sufficiently abundant in virtuous roots and meritorious blessings.

(to be continued tomorrow)

《阿彌陀經》言:「若有善男子、善女人,聞說阿彌陀佛,執持名號,若一日、若二日、若三日、若四日、若五日、若六日、若七日,一心不亂。」這段經文即是往生的正因,即是多善根、多福德。除了這個以外,其他所有的八萬四千佛法,以往生來講,皆不是正因,皆不是多善根、多福德,而是少善根、少福德。

Namo Amituofo!
