Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings - Encouraging the practice of Amitabha-Recitation
念佛警策
We need to be ordinary, normal, steady, and plain in learning Pure Land teachings. Avoid anything which is mysterious and unusual. If you like mysterious, profound and unusual things, you may slight our teaching, then you may get lost. You think our teaching is not profound, sophisticated or unusual, just normal and plain. Actually, the real greatness of the Pure Land teaching is within its ordinariness, the real profundity is within its normalcy, and the real splendor is within its steadiness.
學淨土法門要平凡、平常、平實、平淡,不要好玄妙、不要好奇特,如果喜歡玄妙的、高深的、奇特的,就會看輕我們這個法門,那往往會迷失,覺得我們這樣沒有什麼高深、玄妙、奇特的,好像很平常平淡。其實真正的偉大是在平凡當中,真正的高深就在平常當中,真正的殊勝是在平實當中。
Namo Amituofo!
