Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teachings about Classification of Teachings – the Sacred and the Pure Land teachings
淨宗判教 – 聖淨二門判
The Sacred Path requires reliance upon one’s own power. This means - to practice a myriad of virtues and the Six Paramitas while in the Land of Saha; in order to sever delusions, realize truths, enter the sacred assembly, and attain fruitions.
The Pure Land Path is the reliance on Amitabha’s vow power for rebirth in the Pure Land, where our delusions will be severed, we will realize truths, and enter the state of Enlightenment.
「聖道門」是依自己的力量,在此娑婆修六度萬行,以斷惑證真,入聖得果。「淨土門」是乘彌陀願力,往生淨土,在淨土斷惑證真,趣入菩提。
Namo Amituofo!
