上人法語
淨土述懷
(continued)
After dwelling in the meditative state for 5 eons, Amitabha continued to practice diligently for us throughout countless more eons, in order to accumulate immeasurably great merit and virtues, and fulfill the vow stating “if all sentient beings are unable to be reborn, may I not attain perfect Enlightenment” As Amitabha has vowed to embrace all sentient beings who exclusively recite his Name, what can you be afraid of?
With this one thought, we should feel at ease, and our doubts should all be cleared. All people with all kinds of heavy karmic offenses suddenly receive special amnesty, and their heavy accumulated debts are all eliminated. The retribution of reincarnation over hundreds and thousands of eons halts in a flash.
As the body and mind are relieved, we are moved to cry as we cannot hold back our emotions. Depression we have struggled with for a very long time is gone in a moment. We cry out loud and tears of joy run down like an overflowing reservoir.
五劫思惟兆載苦行,正為你預修;若不生者不取正覺,正為你完成;無邊大利無上功德,皆為你準備;念佛眾生攝取不捨,你何懼之有!
如此一念之間,忽然心安,疑慮盡除。罪業滿身之人,頓蒙大赦;負債累累之身,一時得贖;千生萬劫輪迴之報,剎那停止。
身心輕利,感淚難抑,長時積鬱,一時得解,猶如水庫泄洪,嚎啕大哭。
Namo Amituofo!
