English version Following the High Praise, it says: 'Wishing to be reborn, wishing to be reborn.' The World-Honored One (a respectful title for Shakyamuni Buddha) earnestly tells the body (referring to the listeners), indicating that the great compassion of all Buddhas is the same, and their hearts are united in praising virtues without difference, skillfully responding to the times, each with their own function. All the Buddhas of the ten directions praise that Shakya (short for Shakyamuni Buddha)'s appearance in the world is very rare, precisely at a time when the five turbidities (the turbidity of the age, the turbidity of views, the turbidity of afflictions, the turbidity of beings, and the turbidity of life) are flourishing, and ignorance (a Buddhist term referring to delusion about the true nature of things) is as stubborn as a high peak. In the age of the turbidity of the age (a Buddhist term referring to an era filled with disasters and chaos), people's bodies gradually become smaller, and the turbidity and evil of beings are like snakes and dragons. The turbidity of afflictions (a Buddhist term referring to the intensity of afflictions) is pervasive, exceeding the number of dust particles, and love, hate, opposition, and compliance are like high mountains. The turbidity of views (a Buddhist term referring to wrong views) grows like thorns, and the turbidity of life (a Buddhist term referring to short lifespans) ends prematurely in an instant. The circumstantial reward (a Buddhist term referring to the environment beings depend on) and the direct reward (a Buddhist term referring to the body and mind of beings) perish simultaneously, turning away from the right path and returning to the wrong path, giving rise to resentment. The ninety-five kinds of external paths all pollute the world, only the Buddha's teachings are pure and peaceful. Leaving the world and reaching Bodhi (a Buddhist term referring to enlightenment), the heart is inexhaustible, and one must return to the burning house (a Buddhist term, a metaphor for the world full of afflictions) to liberate humans and devas. The assembly all turn their hearts and wish to be reborn in the Pure Land, holding incense and flowers to make offerings. The High Praise connects to the Lower Praise, and the Lower Praise connects to the High Praise, saying: 'Wishing to be reborn, wishing to be reborn.' The Tathagata (an epithet of the Buddha) appears in the evil world of the five turbidities, conveniently teaching according to the capacities of beings. Some say that by hearing much Dharma, one can be liberated, others say that by understanding a little, one can attain the Three Clear Knowledges (a Buddhist term referring to the knowledge of past lives, the divine eye, and the extinction of outflows). Some teach the dual cultivation of merit and wisdom to eliminate obstacles, others teach meditation and mindfulness, sitting in meditation and contemplation. All kinds of Dharma doors can lead to liberation, but none surpasses reciting the Buddha's name and being reborn in the West. From the end of one's life to even ten recitations at the time of death, three recitations or five recitations, the Buddha will come to greet you. This is directly because Amitabha Buddha's great vows are profound, enabling ordinary beings to be reborn upon reciting the Buddha's name. The assembly all turn their hearts and wish to be reborn in the Pure Land, holding incense and flowers to make offerings. The Lower Praise connects to the High Praise, and the High Praise connects to the Lower Praise, saying: 'Wishing to be reborn, wishing to be reborn.' The time for the World-Honored One to teach the Dharma is coming to an end, and he earnestly entrusts the name of Amitabha (short for Amitabha Buddha). When the five turbidities increase, many doubt and slander, and Daoists and laypeople dislike each other and are unwilling to listen. Seeing someone practicing, they give rise to anger and poison, trying to destroy them and competing to create resentment. Such congenitally blind icchantikas (a Buddhist term referring to those who have severed their roots of goodness) will destroy the Sudden Teaching (a Buddhist term referring to teachings that lead to rapid enlightenment) and be forever submerged, unable to escape the three evil realms (a Buddhist term referring to hell, hungry ghosts, and animals) for more kalpas than there are dust particles in the earth. The assembly repents together with one heart, all the sinful causes and conditions of destroying the Dharma. The assembly all turn their hearts and vow to be reborn in the Pure Land, holding incense and flowers to make offerings. The High Praise connects to the Lower Praise, and the Lower Praise connects to the High Praise, saying: The high seat awaits the lower seat. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 声尽。即为大众。总忏悔云。
