The Infinite Life Sutra says, “When a person believes in and accepts Amitabha’s deliverance, what should his mentality be? It should be humility and reverence. We should be humble because we commit offenses, and we are ashamed because we are weak, inferior, ignorant, poor, timid, and feeble.

《無量壽經》說:信受阿彌陀佛救度的人,應該擁有的心態是什麼呢?就是「謙」跟「敬」。自己應謙卑,因為自己作惡呀! 無能為力、無地自容呀!卑賤、愚劣、怯弱呀!同時經常恭敬阿彌陀佛,阿彌陀佛是十方諸佛之中的佛王,祂才有能力救度我啊!
Namo Amituofo!
