A verse about “ suddenly recollecting hell ” quoted from ‘In Praise of Pratyutpanna’ by Master Shandao
善導大師語錄《般舟讚》「忽憶地獄」之偈:
Suddenly, we recollect the long lasting suffering in all of the hells.
And we forget to forsake the temporary pleasure of desire.
The Land of Bliss is an unconditioned realm,
Which is really the best of the best for the final settlement of our physical lives.
忽憶地獄長時苦,不捨須臾忘安樂;
安樂佛國無為地,畢竟安身實是精。
Namo Amituofo!
