Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about Faith in Pure Land Buddhism
淨土信仰
Rebirth is not to escape to the Land of Bliss, and it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t enjoy our lives. After we are reborn in the Land of Bliss, our minds will be fully opened, all of our vexations and karmic obstructions are immediately cleared, and our wisdom and compassion become the same as Amitabha’s. Thus, the present Amitabha-reciter is the future Buddha.
往生,不是逃避到極樂世界,也不是到那裏享受,往生到極樂世界之後,我們的心量自然就會廣大,不但所有的煩惱業障能夠頓時消除,而且也能夠生起跟佛一樣的慈悲智慧,因此現在的念佛人就是未來之佛。
Namo Amituofo!
