Master Yinguang’s Short Teaching about “non-retrogression attained in this lifetime”
印光大師法語「現生不退」之文
If a man has deep faith in this [Pure Land] teaching,
Even if he is still an ordinary man in bondage,
His “seed nature” (mind-nature) is already considered above that of practitioners of the Two Vehicles.
This resembles a prince who is born into a royal family.
His position is higher than any of the officers.
能於此法,深生信心,則雖具縛凡夫,其種性已超二乘之上。
喻如太子墮地,貴壓群臣。
Namo Amituofo!
