Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about Faith in Pure Land Buddhism
淨土信仰
Once reborn in the Land of Bliss, Amitabha’s blessings, merit and virtues are bestowed upon us, and we can share all of these, in order to: protect our children and grandchildren, deliver our parents, children, grandchildren, relatives, and dependents from past generations.
Understanding all of these benefits, Amitabha-reciters, though living in the mundane world like other people, can let go everything, and simply recite Amitabha’s Name with singleness of mind, and aspire to be reborn in the Land of Bliss at the end of this life. At that point, we have to select “one out of two” - either continue within the cycle of reincarnation or be born in Amitabha’s Land of Bliss.
只要往生極樂世界,就有阿彌陀佛賜給我們的功德福報,讓我們能夠庇蔭子孫;也有阿彌陀佛給我們的神通道力,讓我們能夠救度生生世世的父母、子孫、六親眷屬。
念佛人心中了解這個道理,所以雖然在世俗的生活當中,跟一般人一樣,但最後要二選一的時候,他就會萬緣放下,一心念佛,往生極樂世界。
Namo Amituofo!
