Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about the Amitabha Sutra
《佛說阿彌陀經》
When Shakyamuni Buddha expounded the Amitabha Sutra, all buddhas of the ten directions came to extol it pro-actively, and unanimously certify what Shakyamuni Buddha said is true. What he says is the same as what all buddhas of the ten directions say, which is also verified through the accomplishment of Amitabha’s 17th Vow in the Infinite Life Sutra.
In the Amitabha Sutra, it also says all buddhas of the ten directions will come together to protect Amitabha-reciters. In this case, when we recite Amitabha’s Name, we are embraced and protected by all buddhas. Isn’t that amazing?! It should also make us fully confident in our deliverance, no matter how inferior our aptitudes are.
當釋迦牟尼佛宣說《阿彌陀經》的時候,十方諸佛都同時歡喜主動地讚歎,異口同聲來證明釋迦牟尼佛所說的是真實不虛,祂所說的等同十方諸佛所要說的,這也就是《無量壽經》第十七願的成就的顯示。
而《阿彌陀經》裏更說我們念阿彌陀佛的人,十方諸佛都一齊來護念。這樣的話,我們念阿彌陀佛一佛豈不是被一切諸佛共同保護,這樣,我們再怎樣下劣,也能生起得救的信心。
Namo Amituofo!
