Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings - Encouraging the Practice of Amitabha-Recitation
念佛警策
The habitual behavior of ordinary beings is heavy and complicated, and our mental compulsion to pursue the five kinds of desire is strong; but, our commitment to recite Amitabha’s Name is weak. Knowing this, we should encourage ourselves not to indulge in those habitual behaviors. We should recite Amitabha’s Name in all of our spare time, except of course, when we are sleeping and working. If you are handicapped, you can recite mentally, while also thinking of the Buddha’s grace.
凡夫習氣繁重，念世俗五欲之心強，念彌陀佛名之心弱，故應自我惕勵，不應 自我放任。當然睡眠、作事等不能念則姑且置之，其他時間即應念佛。若喑啞 者，則可心中念佛，存想佛恩。
Namo Amituofo!
