A Verse sharing Compassionate Advice and Cautions - quoted from ‘In Praise of Pratyutpanna’ by Master Shandao
善導大師《般舟讚》慈悲勸誡
Amitabha’s vow power varies with his mind,
All of his four kinds of adornments are universally spread.
His Three Knowings and Six Paranormal Powers can be freely manipulated,
In order to permeate the minds of sentient beings according to his will,
So that goodness and excellent marks arise within them.
He can instantly manifest a Buddha body of a truly golden color.
The magnificent golden rays are the marks of Amitabha.
Countless haloed Buddhas appear before those who accept his deliverance.
彌陀願力隨心大,四種莊嚴普皆遍,
三明六通常自在,遍入眾生心想中。
佛身相好依心起,隨念即現真金佛,
真金即是彌陀相,圓光化佛現人前。
Namo Amituofo!
