Master Yinguang’s Short Teaching about “violation of the Dharma by breaking the precepts”
印光大師法語「破戒違法」之文
For those who practice Amitabha-recitation, if you ask for worldly blessings in the next life, you will violate the Dharma and break the precepts.
The teaching of Amitabha-recitation teaches people to aspire to be reborn in the West.
This is the Buddha’s teaching that people must follow. If you don’t follow it , it is called “violation of the Dharma and breaking the precepts”.
念佛,若求來生福報,即是破戒違法。
念佛法門,乃是教人求生西方的法門。
此是佛教人必定要依之法,汝不肯依,故名破戒違法。
Namo Amituofo!
