Master Yinguang’s Short Teaching about the Fruition of Enlightenment and the cause of Mental - Aspiration (without mixing other Buddhist teachings)
印光大師、「果覺因心」之文(法門不能相混)
The Pure Land teaching’s greatness has no limit. All phenomena are the noumenon (Amitabha’s Body) itself. All cultivation practices (Amitabha-recitation) are the revelation of self-nature.
The practice is extremely common and simple; but, the benefits are infinitely splendid and wonderful. This is because the practitioner takes the Buddha’s Enlightenment to be one with his Bodhi Mind in the causal ground. In this way, he attains the cause that envelops all merit and virtues like an ocean, and also attains the reward of fruition that can thoroughly penetrate the source of all of the causes of his karmic offenses.
淨土法門,其大無外,全事即理,全修即性。
行極平常,益極殊勝。
良由「以果地覺,為因地心」,故得「因該果海,果徹因源」。
Namo Amituofo!
