Can we attain rebirth in the Pure Land if we chant Amitabha Buddha’s name with an impetuous mind?
心浮氣躁的心念佛能不能往生 - 第77集
現在修行人心浮氣躁，心浮氣躁的心念佛都不能往生，只是跟阿彌陀佛結一個法緣，來生後世遇到緣再修。什麼時候能往生？時間很長很長。
Practitioners today tend to be impetuous. People who chant Amitabha Buddha’s name with an impetuous mind will not attain rebirth in the Pure Land. They have only fostered a Dharma-affinity with Amitabha Buddha and will have to continue with their cultivation in the next lifetimes when they encounter the opportunity to do so. When can they be reborn in the Pure Land? They can be reborn there after an incredibly long time.
所以這個法，古大德告訴我們，無量劫來稀有難逢，不是那麼容易遇到的。我們這一生得人身、聞佛法，遇到淨土法門，特別是遇到夏蓮居老居士會集本的經本，又遇到黃念祖老居士為之集註，這個因緣無比的稀有難逢，我們遇到了。
That’s why the ancient great masters told us that this Pure Land Dharma is extremely rare and difficult to be encountered in innumerable kalpas. It is not so easy to encounter it. It is an extremely rare and difficult causal condition for us to be born as a human, to be able to listen to the Dharma and encounter Pure Land Buddhism, especially encountering this sutra compiled by Upasaka Xia as well as Upasaka Huang’s annotation on this sutra, yet we have encountered them.
遇到了，只要用真誠心、清淨心、恭敬心來接受，依教奉行。諸佛菩薩、祖師大德在這部經上所說的，每句話、每個字都真實不虛，我們要尊重、要敬仰、要深信不疑，依教奉行。把經上講的道理變成我們自己的思想，經上講的方法變成我們的生活、行為，以這個功德求生淨土，這一生當中決定得生。
That’s why we must respect and have absolute belief (without any doubt) in this sutra and annotation, and practise according to the teachings with a sincere, pure and respectful mind because every sentence and word mentioned in this sutra by all buddhas and bodhisattvas as well as the past eminent patriarchs and great masters are true without the slightest falsity. By dedicating the merits accrued from making the principle and method in this sutra become our thoughts and behaviour respectively, we are bound to be reborn in the Pure Land in this life.
