如何做一個真正念佛人 - 第143集

How to become a true Pure Land practitioner?

「法身如來離一切相,故云實相無相」。為什麼?法身如來不起心不動念,於一切法中沒有起心動念,這法身佛。一切時、一切處不起心不動念做不到,因為起心動念自己不曉得,它太微細了。

“Dharma body Tathagatas are unattached to all forms. That’s why it is said that there is no form in reality.” What is the reason? Because the Dharma body Tathagatas (i.e., Dharma body buddhas) do not give rise to thoughts in everything. By contrast, we cannot stop giving rise to thoughts at all times and in all places because we ourselves are unaware of these thoughts arising since they are too subtle.

我們只有依靠阿彌陀佛,我們起心動念是極樂世界、是阿彌陀佛,我們分別執著也是極樂世界、也是阿彌陀佛;除極樂世界、阿彌陀佛之外,我統統放下,這就對了,這就是真正念佛人,這就是真正彌陀弟子。

We can only rely on Amitabha Buddha. Every of our thoughts should be on the Land of Ultimate Bliss and Amitabha Buddha. Our attachments and discrimination should be on the Land of Ultimate Bliss and Amitabha Buddha too. Other than the Land of Ultimate Bliss and Amitabha Buddha, I have let go of everything. Then, I am on the right track. This is a true Pure Land practitioner and true student of Amitabha Buddha.
