Master Yinguang’s Short Teaching explaining the Most Important Point in Pure Land Teaching (Self-power cannot be compared with the Buddha’s power)
印光大師 「淨土最要」之文(佛力自力非比)
Pure Land teaching far surpasses all other teachings because it relies on the Buddha’s power, while the other teachings solely rely on self-power. How can we compare self-power with the Buddha’s power? This is the most important point to understand in the cultivation of Pure Land teaching.
淨土法門超勝一切法門者,在仗佛力。
其餘諸法門,皆仗自力。
自力何可與佛力並論乎!此修淨土法門之最要一關也。
Namo Amituofo!
