We will have much to gain if we apply the sutra teachings to our conduct and thoughts.
把經教落實在自己的身心收穫就大了 – 第5集
我們要認真努力，經典裡面所說的道理變成我們的思想，經典裡面的教訓變成我們的生活行為，我們要把它完全落實在自己身心這兩方面，這個收穫就大了！第四回我們的目標定在此地，換句話說，這一年的時間我們把它學圓滿，至少有一樁事情，我提醒大家，生死自在，要完成這個任務。我想往生真能去得了，我想再多住幾年不礙事。
We must seriously strive to make the principles and teachings in the sutra become our thoughts and daily behaviour. If we fully implement the teachings in these two aspects, then we will have much to gain. Let’s make this our goal in this fourth round of lectures. In other words, we resolve to practise this sutra to perfection during this year of learning. Let me remind you that we must at least accomplish the mission of attaining freedom of birth and death. We can then go to the Pure Land at will or live for a few more years without any hindrance.
住幾年幹什麼？為大家表法，表法就是做最好的樣子給大家看，真正是智慧的樣子、解脫的樣子、快樂的樣子，極樂世界！做好榜樣給別人看，讓別人對這個法門、對這個經典都能生起信心，都能歡歡喜喜依照這個方法來修行，成就自己，成就一切眾生，滿足阿彌陀佛度眾生的大願。
What is the purpose of staying behind for a few more years? The purpose is to set a shining example for everyone to look up to i.e., a true example of wisdom, liberation and happiness, as in the Land of Ultimate Bliss! This would enable others to have confidence in the Pure Land method and in this sutra so that they can happily practise according to this method. By accomplishing ourselves and accomplishing all beings, we are fulfilling the great vow of Amitabha Buddha to help all sentient beings.
