Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about Faith in Pure Land Buddhism
淨土信仰

If an Amitabha-reciter goes to another Buddhist temple, where they do not worship Amitabha Buddha as the principal Buddha, we should of course prostrate three times upon arrival. Is this regarded as a mixed practice? No, because prostration is an expression of respect to the Buddha. However, our mental attitude is the not the same.

念佛人若到其他的道場去,而該道場所供奉的本尊不是阿彌陀佛,可是我們既然到了那個道場,理所當然就要頂禮三拜,那算不算雜行呢?那個不算,因為理所當然就是要向佛表達恭敬的嘛!但是心情是不一樣的呀!

Namo Amituofo!
