The Buddha does not lie and does not deceive sentient beings
佛沒有妄語 佛不欺騙眾生 - 第111集
「巧入無念」，無念就成佛了，「即凡成聖。至哉妙用，不可思議」。
“The Buddha-name chanting method skilfully enables one to enter into absence-of-thought (i.e., achieving Buddhahood), so ordinary beings become saints immediately. Its function is marvellous and inconceivable!”
教下像賢首、清涼，大徹大悟，大開圓解；宗門像慧可、像惠能這些祖師大德，明心見性，見性成佛；淨宗的學人就這一句佛號。
Accomplished practitioners of the sutra-study schools such as National Master Xian Shou (i.e., the third patriarch of the Chinese Huayan school) and Great Master Qing Liang (i.e., the fourth patriarch of the Chinese Huayan school) attained great awakening with complete understanding (i.e., Supreme Enlightenment) by studying the Buddhist sutras, while the past eminent patriarchs of the Zen school such as Great Master Hui Ke and Great Master Hui Neng saw into their mind and true nature, thereby achieving Buddhahood by practising meditative concentration. Pure Land practitioners, on the other hand, attain One Mind Undisturbed at the noumenal level by chanting this Amitabha Buddha’s name.
這個地方講得很清楚，大家千萬不要忘記，一句佛號換除百千萬億妄想雜念，什麼都不想了，什麼都不念了，就念這一句佛號。把妄想念掉了，沒有了，把雜念念掉了，這叫念得純熟，這就是功夫的淺深。
This place makes it very clear. Please do not forget that every recitation of Amitabha Buddha’s name can replace hundreds of trillions of wandering and distracting thoughts, so we should only chant this Amitabha Buddha’s name and not think of anything else. When our wandering and distracting thoughts have been totally eradicated, this is called ‘well-accomplished recitation.’ This is the depth of one’s effort of practising Buddha Mindfulness.
功夫到這種境界，往生西方淨土是上輩上生，生到極樂世界，就是圓教地上菩薩，太快了，地位太高了，所以很多人不敢相信。我們一定要知道，這是事實真相，佛沒有妄語，佛不欺騙眾生。
When our effort of practice reaches this depth, we will be reborn in the upper level of the advanced grade in the Land of Ultimate Bliss. After we are reborn in this Land, we become bodhisattvas of the Perfect Teaching who have attained the ground stages of bodhisattva practice. This achievement is too fast and the status attained is too high that many people cannot believe it. We must know that this is the truth. The Buddha never lied and never deceived sentient beings.
