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

Though we may not understand the teachings transmitted by good advisors and still have doubts, we can accept them first and understand bit by bit. People are different in aptitudes; so, they may not believe and accept upon first hearing. That is, unless their virtuous roots are deep due to past karma. Otherwise they are sure to have doubts.
So, what should we do? Accept first and try to understand later. That is to say, whatever we are ready to understand, we start there. That is the meaning of “clear understanding and deep belief”.

善知識所傳的教理儘管我們理解不來,尚有疑惑,還不能百分之百的肯定,可是如果能先接受,再一步一步的去理解,這樣也可以。因為每個人的根機不同,除非宿世薰習深厚,他這輩子才能一聽就信受,否則總會有疑問的地方。
那怎麼辦呢?先接受,再逐步的去理解。這樣的話,真正理解到哪裡,信就到哪裡了,「理明信深」就是這個意思。
