English version: Due to being disturbed by various miscellaneous and chaotic conditions, one loses right mindfulness. Therefore, one is not in accordance with the original vows of Amitabha (Amitabha), contradicts the teachings of Buddhism, does not follow the Buddha's words, does not continuously maintain mindfulness, interrupts recollection and thought, and the dedication of vows is not earnest or genuine. Greed, hatred, and various wrong views and afflictions come to interrupt, and there is no sense of shame or repentance. There are three levels of repentance: complete, abbreviated, and extensive, as detailed below. Any of these can be used at will, but if one does not continuously recite to repay the Buddha's kindness, and develops arrogance in the mind, even if one performs meritorious deeds, they are always associated with fame and gain. One's ego obscures oneself, one does not associate with virtuous spiritual friends, and one enjoys associating with miscellaneous conditions, obstructing oneself and others from the right practice of rebirth in the Pure Land. Why is this so? Because one sees and hears different views and practices of monastics and laypeople in various places, with differences between exclusive and mixed practices. However, if one practices with focused intention, ten out of ten will be reborn. If one practices mixed practices without sincerity, not even one in a thousand will be reborn. The gains and losses of these two practices have been clearly discussed earlier. I hope that all those who wish to be reborn will carefully consider this. Those who are already able to vow to be reborn in that land in this life must strive to restrain themselves in all activities, day and night without ceasing, with a lifetime as the limit. It seems like a small suffering in one lifetime, but the moment the previous thought ends, the next thought is reborn in that land, enjoying the bliss of unconditioned Dharma for a long time, even until becoming a Buddha without experiencing birth and death. Isn't that wonderful? It should be known that: First, the Buddha encourages bowing and praising the twelve names of light of Amitabha (Amitabha), seeking rebirth with nineteen bows. One can bow at sunset, or use a medium or lower level of repentance. Homage to Sakyamuni Buddha (Sakyamuni Buddha) and all the Three Jewels. I now bow in reverence, dedicating my vows to be reborn in the Land of Immeasurable Life (Sukhavati). This Buddha is now the teacher of monastics and laypeople in this present age. The Three Jewels are fields of immeasurable blessings. If one can bow once, it is to repay the teacher's kindness and accomplish one's practice. With this one practice, dedicate your vows to be reborn. Homage to all the Three Jewels in the ten directions, the three times, throughout the empty space, the Dharma realm, and the lands of dust motes. I now bow in reverence, dedicating my vows to be reborn in the Land of Immeasurable Life. The empty space in the ten directions is boundless, and the Three Jewels are endless. If one bows once, it is a field of immeasurable blessings and infinite merit. If one can sincerely bow once, upon each Buddha. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: On each and every Dharma, on each and every Bodhisattva, on each and every Sangha of holy monks, on each and every Sharira (relic), one can obtain the roots of goodness from the liberation division of body, speech, and mind karma, to aid and benefit the practitioner, in order to accomplish one's own karma. With this practice, one dedicates the merit and vows to be reborn in the Pure Land. Namo Amitabha Buddha (Amitabha Buddha) of the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. May I, together with all sentient beings, take refuge, therefore I prostrate, wishing to be born in that land. Question: Why is he called Amitabha (Amitabha)? Answer: The Amitabha Sutra and the Contemplation Sutra say: 'That Buddha's light is immeasurable, illuminating the ten directions without obstruction, only seeking out sentient beings who recite the Buddha's name, embracing them and not abandoning them.' Therefore, he is called Amitabha Buddha (Amitabha Buddha). That Buddha's lifespan and the lifespan of his people are immeasurable and boundless asamkhya kalpas (asamkhya kalpas), therefore he is called Amitabha (Amitabha). Moreover, Sakyamuni Buddha (Sakyamuni Buddha) and the Buddhas of the ten directions praise Amitabha's (Amitabha) light with twelve names, universally exhorting sentient beings to recite his name and prostrate in worship. Those who continue without interruption will obtain immeasurable merit in this life and will surely be reborn after death. As the Infinite Life Sutra says: 'If there are sentient beings who encounter this light, the three defilements will be extinguished, their bodies and minds will become soft, they will rejoice and leap for joy, and good thoughts will arise. If they are in the painful realms of the three evil paths, upon seeing this light, they will have no more suffering, and after death, they will all be liberated.' The light of Amitayus Buddha (Amitayus Buddha) is bright and radiant, illuminating the Buddha lands of the ten directions, and there is none who has not heard of it. It is not only I who praise his light today, but all Buddhas, Sravakas, Pratyekabuddhas, and Bodhisattvas together praise him. If sentient beings hear of his light, majestic power, and meritorious virtues, and recite his name day and night with utmost sincerity and without interruption, according to their wishes, they will be born in his land, and will always be praised by the Bodhisattvas and Sravakas, who extol his merits. The Buddha said: 'I say that the light, majestic power, and sublime virtues of Amitayus Buddha (Amitayus Buddha) are so magnificent and wonderful that even if I spoke of them day and night for one kalpa, I could not exhaust them.' I tell you practitioners, you should know that the physical form and light of Amitabha (Amitabha) cannot be fully described by Sakyamuni Tathagata (Sakyamuni Tathagata) even in one kalpa. As the Contemplation Sutra says: 'Each and every ray of light illuminates the ten directions, embracing and not abandoning sentient beings who recite the Buddha's name.' Now that the Contemplation Sutra has such an inconceivable, superior, and supreme condition to protect practitioners, why not continuously recite, contemplate, and prostrate? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 念愿往生也。应知。
