Clarifying Doubts About the Pure Land Teaching
淨土釋疑(一)
Question No. 3: May I ask: Why is it said “faith arises from listening”?
Answer:
It has just been explained about the meaning of “hearing”. Truly hearing is truly believing. The meaning of faith is to deeply hear about Amitabha’s deliverance and accept it. Understanding and accepting Amitabha’s deliverance is truly hearing. If you deeply ponder this, you will understand.
3問:請問師父,為什麼說「信從聞生」?
答: 剛剛解釋了這個聞的內涵,真聞就是真信。信心的內涵就是體悟彌陀的救度,內心體悟彌陀的救度才是真正的聞,這個大家想一想就可知道。
Namo Amituofo!
