Master Yinguang’s Short Teaching about “throwing away intelligence and learning to be a fool”
印光大師法語「拋智學愚」之文(勸矜智人)
As an Amitabha-reciter, one should not rely on his own intelligence and wisdom. In fact, he should throw both of these into the Eastern Ocean. It is best for him to learn that he is a foolish man, and, even more importantly, to scrupulously continue the practice of Amitabha-recitation.
念佛之人,勿自仗聰明智慧,須拋之於東洋大海外。 最好學愚夫愚婦,老實行持為要。
Namo Amituofo!
