Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about Faith in Pure Land Buddhism
淨土信仰
Whoever is reborn will see Amitabha Buddha, because the Land of Bliss is a realm of the Mahayana teachings. Those with the Theravada aptitude will automatically change upon rebirth, and naturally set forth the aspiration to deliver sentient beings comprehensively.
It is similar to water on a road. Some is clean and some is dirty, some comes from the Yellow River and some from the Yangtze River, and some from one’s cup. They are all different. However, when all of the kinds of water flow into the great ocean, they easily and naturally develop the same taste.
The Land of Bliss can change a Theravada mind to a Mahayana mind; so, our rebirth matters. In his Pure Land Amitabha Buddha will naturally tune up our minds.
不管什麼人往生,一定會見到阿彌陀佛,因為極樂世界是大乘法門,不往生則已,一旦往生,就會改變小乘的根性,自自然然會發起廣度眾生的願。
好像路面上的水千差萬別,有的乾淨,有的不乾淨,有杯中的水,也有黃河的水、長江的水,各不一樣,可是一旦流入大海,就跟大海一個味道,自自然然地,不必勉強。
極樂世界能夠轉小乘的心量為大乘的心量,所以,我們儘管往生,到那裏自有佛的調攝。
Namo Amituofo!
