Master Huijing’s Short Teaching about Pure Land Buddhism (I)
淨土短文 (一)
23. The World of True Reality
“Next is the path to the unconditioned and Nirvana. All attain a body of natural emptiness and of boundless extent.”
The World of Peace and Bliss
“ Amitabha’s Land is pure and peaceful, subtle and wondrous, and filled with exquisite joy. There are none of the many sufferings one experiences in this Saha Land, only every kind of bliss. Therefore, it is called the Land of Ultimate Bliss.”
The World of Harmony and Peace
“Everything exists according to one’s wishes, completely free and at ease. There are no preferences or aversions, no distinctions between ‘others’ and ‘self,’ and no competitions or dispute.”
The World of Merit and Virtue
“Through its magnificent adornments, all sentient beings attain the accomplishment of merit and virtue.”
The World of Eternal Life
“All who reach that Land attain, through their own realization, the state of non-retrogression.”
The World of Diligent Practice
If I do not become a great benefactor, even after countless kalpas of practice; universally relieving all who are poor and suffering, I vow not to attain Perfect Enlightenment.
23. 真實之世界:次於無為泥涅之道。皆受自然虛無之身、無極之體。 安樂之世界:彼佛國土,清淨安穩,微妙快樂。無有眾苦,但受諸樂,故名極 樂。
和平之世界:隨意自在,無所適莫,無彼無我,無競無訟。 功德之世界:以大莊嚴,令諸眾生,功德成就。
生命之世界:皆悉到彼國,自致不退轉。
精進之世界:我於無量劫,不為大施主,普濟諸貧苦,誓不成正覺。
Namo Amituofo!
