English version I vow to be reborn in the Buddha-land of Amitabha (Amitabha), which is truly solemn and pure, free from the names of the three evil realms and the six paths of existence. Everything there is incomparably solemn and difficult to fully comprehend, with all kinds of subtle aspects being extremely refined. The earth is flat and wide, composed of various treasures, each shining with five hundred kinds of light. Each light transforms into the base of a jeweled platform, and on each platform are hundreds of thousands of halls. In these countless halls, there are gatherings of countless transformation Buddhas like grains of sand, and beings enter to contemplate together. Countless sounds resonate in the air, transforming into celestial children scattering flowers and incense. Day and night, six times a day, without interruption, the land and the sky are immeasurable. The pools of eight virtues and fragrance can be entered at will, and the depth of immersion is up to the individual, either emerging or submerging, enjoying the bliss of the third dhyana. Slowly, they call each other to enter the Sandalwood forest. The jeweled seats in the Sandalwood forest are arranged in rows, and the splendor of the holy assembly surpasses the sun and moon. The sun and moon represent long periods of time, whether sitting, standing, or wandering in all directions, everywhere one can only hear the supreme Dharma, forever severing the suffering of birth and death of ordinary beings. Therefore, that country is called Sukhavati (Land of Bliss). We all turn our hearts and vow to be reborn there. Reborn in that country, there is nothing else to do but to hold flowers and incense, and constantly make offerings to the Buddhas. The higher praise connects to the lower praise, and the lower praise connects to the higher praise. Entering the text from the high seat. Sariputra (Sariputra), what do you think? Why is that Buddha called Amitabha (Amitabha)? Sariputra, that Buddha's light is immeasurable, shining upon the ten directions without obstruction, therefore he is called Amitabha. Furthermore, Sariputra, that Buddha's lifespan and the lifespan of the people there are immeasurable and boundless asamkhya kalpas (asamkhya kalpas), therefore he is named Amitabha. Sariputra, since Amitabha Buddha attained Buddhahood, it has been ten kalpas. Furthermore, Sariputra, that Buddha has immeasurable and boundless Shravaka disciples, all of whom are Arhats (arhat), beyond the ability of calculation to know. The Bodhisattva assembly is also the same. Sariputra, that Buddha's land is adorned with such meritorious virtues. The lower praise connects to the higher praise. I vow to be reborn, I vow to be reborn. If one can attain Nirvana (Nirvana), one can abide in the world forever, with a lifespan extended beyond measure, for thousands of kalpas, millions of kalpas, Ganges-sand kalpas, trillions of years, and eternal kalpas without end. Once seated, one will not move or waver, radiating light until the end of time. The spiritual demeanor and beautiful features manifest true golden color, sitting majestically, delivering sentient beings. Ordinary beings and sages of the ten directions are all focused and dedicated. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: The mind aspires (Xīn xiàng). Emanations are sent forth to welcome. In a single thought, one rides the void and enters the Buddha's assembly. Form, appearance, and lifespan all become equal. We all turn our hearts and wish to be reborn there, holding incense and flowers, constantly making offerings. (High connects to low praise) Low connects to high praise, (Low connects to high praise) High connects to low praise. May we be reborn, may we be reborn. Amitābha (Amitābha, Infinite Light Buddha) from the initial aspiration practices asceticism. Courageous and diligent, without retreat. One meditation lasts for hundreds of kalpas (kalpa, an aeon) of long duration. Difficult to do, yet striving to do without fatigue. Benefiting oneself and others, together cutting off evil. Not abandoning those who harbor resentment, due to great compassion. All sentient beings are universally transformed, together cultivating until Bodhi (bodhi, enlightenment). Vowing to adorn the pure land with splendor, those who see and hear rejoice, attaining the state of non-action. We all turn our hearts and wish to be reborn there, holding incense and flowers, constantly making offerings. Low connects to high praise. May we be reborn, may we be reborn. Amitābha, the lord of transformation, sits in our hearts. Lotus birth is the most exquisite. Hundreds of billions of mani jewels intermingle, the adornment of each petal is naturally formed. Since sitting upright, ten kalpas have passed. The mind connects with the Dharma realm, shining with compassionate light. Those touched by the light, the defilements of the world are extinguished. At the end of life, seeing the Buddha, one is reborn in the Western Pure Land. Arriving there, the lotus opens, entering the Buddha's assembly. Ignorance and afflictions naturally vanish. The three kinds of knowledge are naturally attained, relying on the Buddha's vows. In a moment, joining palms, one obtains supernatural powers. The Śrāvakas (śrāvaka, a disciple who attains enlightenment by hearing the Buddha's teachings) and Bodhisattvas (bodhisattva, an enlightened being who postpones Buddhahood to help others) of that Buddha, their numbers are like dust and sand, difficult to fathom. May I in this life strive to make vows, spending my life going to that gathering of sages. We all wholeheartedly wish to be reborn there, holding incense and flowers, constantly making offerings. (High connects to low praise) Low connects to high praise, (Low connects to high praise) High connects to low praise. Entering the text from the high seat. Moreover, Śāriputra (Śāriputra, one of the Buddha's ten great disciples). All beings in the Land of Ultimate Bliss who are born there are Avaivartika (avaivartika, non-retrogression). Among them, many are Ekajāti-pratibaddha (ekajāti-pratibaddha, a bodhisattva who will become a Buddha in their next life). Their number is very large, not knowable by arithmetic. It can only be described by countless, boundless asaṃkhya-kalpas (asaṃkhya-kalpa, an immeasurably long period of time). Śāriputra, beings who hear this should make vows to be born in that land. Why? Because one can gather in one place with these most excellent and virtuous people. Śāriputra, one cannot be born in that land with few roots of goodness, blessings, and causes and conditions. Low connects to high praise. May we be reborn, may we be reborn. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
