Master Huijing’s Short Dharma Teaching about the Grace of Deliverance
慧淨法師之救恩法語(二)之愛的心語
Amitabha saves me, causes me to be reborn, and grants me a new life. Not only do I receive life; but, I receive it in greater abundance.
I am a newly created person; the old things have passed away, and everything has become new.
Amitabha Buddha and I share the same life — Buddha and ordinary being as one. Therefore, I should be ever more humble and reverent.
With my sins removed, I wish only to give thanks and repay Amitabha’s kindness. I wish only to cultivate good conduct, so that others, seeing the change in me, may come to trust in Amitābha’s compassionate grace.
How could I instead boast of my sins, indulge in reckless behavior, or deliberately do wrong?
彌陀救我,使我重生,獲得新生命。
不但得到生命,而且得的更豐盛。
是新造的人,舊事已過,一切都變成新的。
佛與我同生,佛凡一體,故我更應謙敬。
罪被消除,只想感恩、報恩,只想自己如何有好行為,使人因自己的改變而來 信受彌陀的慈恩。
怎會反而誇罪,而放浪形骸,故意為非?
Namo Amituofo!
