Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings encouraging the practice of Amitabha-Recitation
念佛警策
We should carefully think about how fortunate we are to have been born into a human body in this life. If we hadn’t been born as a human we could now be in one of the Three Wretched Realms, where the suffering is millions and billions of times more severe than in the human world.
So, if we think we are suffering in the human world, think of the sufferings we might have been experiencing in one of the Three Wretched Realms. If we do, we will not see our “suffering” as severe; but, a reminder of how fortunate we are to have been born a human!
我們應該細細思惟:此生慶幸,得難得之人身,若不得人身,現在已墮三惡道了。三惡道之苦,苦不堪言,比人間任何苦超過千百萬億倍,所以人生再怎麼樣地苦,若能想想三惡道,則此苦不苦,反而深覺慶喜,幸得人身,不然就在三惡道了。
Namo Amituofo!
