English version: The daily practice should be mainly based on the Vow Text, and for the rest of the time, whether it is the practice of two periods, three periods, or reciting the Buddha's name thousands or tens of thousands of times, do it according to your ability. Establish a fixed routine every day, and do not interrupt it for a single day. Pure Land Vow Text (Composed by Shen Lianchi) I bow my head to the Western Land of Bliss, the great guide who receives all beings. I now make a vow to be reborn there, and I only hope that you will accept me with compassion. Disciple (so-and-so, etc.), for the sake of the four kinds of kindness, the beings in the three realms, and all beings in the Dharma realm, seeks the One Vehicle Supreme Bodhi Path attained by all Buddhas. Therefore, I wholeheartedly recite the Great Name of Amitabha Buddha (Amitabha Buddha) with ten thousand virtues, hoping to be reborn in the Pure Land. Furthermore, because my karmic obstacles are heavy, my blessings are light, my hindrances are deep, and my wisdom is shallow, my defiled mind is easily ignited, and pure virtues are difficult to achieve. Now, before the Buddha, I prostrate myself with the five limbs, expressing my wholehearted sincerity, and sincerely repent. I and all beings, from beginningless kalpas until now, have been deluded by our inherent pure mind, indulging in greed, anger, and ignorance, defiling the three karmas of body, speech, and mind, creating limitless and boundless sins, and forming limitless and boundless karmic debts. I vow that all these sins may be eliminated. From today onwards, I make a deep vow: to stay away from all evil dharmas, vowing never to create them again; to diligently cultivate the holy path, vowing not to retreat; vowing to attain perfect enlightenment, vowing to liberate all beings. Amitabha Buddha, with the power of compassionate vows, will surely know me, will surely have compassion on me, and will surely bless me. May I, in meditation and in dreams, see the golden body of Amitabha Buddha, see the land adorned with treasures of Amitabha Buddha, receive the nectar empowerment of Amitabha Buddha, with light shining on my body, hands touching my head, and clothes covering my body, so that my past karmic obstacles will naturally be eliminated, my good roots will grow, my afflictions will be quickly emptied, my ignorance will be instantly broken, and the wonderful mind of perfect enlightenment will be clearly awakened, and the true realm of serene light will always appear before me. Until the time of approaching the end of life, knowing in advance when it will come, my body will be free from all sickness and suffering, my mind will be free from all greed and delusion, my senses will be joyful, my right mindfulness will be clear, and I will relinquish my body peacefully, as if entering samadhi. Amitabha Buddha, together with Avalokiteśvara (Avalokiteśvara), Mahāsthāmaprāpta (Mahāsthāmaprāpta), and all the noble sages, will emit light to receive me, extend their hands to lift me up, with pavilions, banners, exotic fragrances, and heavenly music, the sacred realm of the West will be revealed before my eyes, causing all beings who see and hear it to rejoice, admire, and generate the Bodhi mind. At that time, I will ride on a diamond platform, following behind the Buddha, and in an instant, be born in the Land of Ultimate Bliss, within the seven-jeweled pond, in a magnificent lotus flower. When the flower opens, I will see the Buddha, see all the Bodhisattvas, hear the wonderful Dharma sound, attain the non-birth forbearance, and in an instant, serve all the Buddhas, personally receiving... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

授记得授记已三身四智五眼六通无量百千陀罗尼门一切功德皆悉成就然后不违安养回入娑婆分身无数遍十方刹以不可思议自在神力种种方便度脱众生咸令离染还得净心同生西方入不退地如是大愿世界无尽众生无尽业及烦恼一切无尽我愿无尽愿今礼佛发愿修持功德回施有情四恩总报三有齐资法界众生同圆种智。 净土辨疑 归元直指选 宗本问弟子欲脱生死不知依何法修。 禅师赞叹曰年纪幼而发心高听吾所说径路修行但念阿弥陀佛。 宗本曰凡夫罪业甚多云何一世念佛便得往生净土。 答十六观经云至心念南无阿弥陀佛一声灭八十亿劫生死重罪有人平生造五逆十恶临终十念阿弥陀佛尚得往生况一世齐戒念佛乎。 问阿弥陀佛何故有如是广大功德广大行愿。 答大阿弥陀经云我至成佛时名声超十方人天欣得闻俱来生我刹地狱鬼畜生亦生我刹中是则凡在三界六道轮回之内者无所不度可知矣阿弥陀佛现在西方极乐世界又在十方世界教化无数天人以至蜎飞蠕动之类(蜎飞者谓微细飞虫也蠕动者谓微细蛆虫也)若此者佛尚化度况于人乎阿弥陀佛又有愿云若称我名必生我国若不尔者誓不作佛是以广度众生无有穷极而人一念皈依遂生其国由此推之念佛功德实不可思议也又云若有众 现代汉语译本： 授记之后，将获得法、报、应三身，大圆镜智、妙观察智、平等性智、成所作智四智，天眼、肉眼、慧眼、法眼、佛眼五眼，以及六神通和无量百千陀罗尼门。一切功德都将圆满成就。然后不违背在安养（An'yang，极乐世界）的誓愿，回入娑婆世界（Suōpó Shìjiè，指我们所处的世界），分身无数，遍布十方刹土，以不可思议的自在神力，用种种方便法门度脱众生，使他们都能够脱离染污，获得清净心，一同往生西方极乐世界，进入不退转的境界。像这样的大愿，世界没有穷尽，众生没有穷尽，业和烦恼也没有穷尽，我的愿力也没有穷尽。现在礼佛发愿，修持功德，回向施与一切有情众生，总报答父母恩、众生恩、国家恩、三宝恩四重恩情，使三界众生都能得到资助，法界众生一同圆满佛的智慧。 净土辨疑 归元直指选 宗本问：弟子想要脱离生死轮回，不知道应该依靠什么法门修行？ 禅师赞叹说：年纪轻轻就发出如此高远的志向！听我说一条捷径修行的方法，只要念诵阿弥陀佛（Āmítuó Fó）的名号。 宗本说：凡夫罪业深重，为什么一生念佛就能往生净土？ 答： 《十六观经》中说，至心念诵‘南无阿弥陀佛（Nāmó Āmítuó Fó）’一声，就能灭除八十亿劫的生死重罪。有人平生造作五逆十恶的罪业，临终时念诵十声阿弥陀佛，尚且能够往生，更何况一生持斋戒念佛的人呢？ 问：阿弥陀佛为什么有如此广大的功德和广大的行愿？ 答：《大阿弥陀经》中说，‘我成佛时，名声超过十方世界，人天都欢喜听闻，一起来生到我的刹土。地狱、饿鬼、畜生道的众生，也能生到我的刹土中。’这样看来，凡是在三界六道轮回之内的众生，没有不能被度化的。阿弥陀佛现在西方极乐世界，又在十方世界教化无数天人和乃至蜎飞蠕动之类（蜎飞者，指微细的飞虫；蠕动者，指微细的蛆虫）。像这样，佛尚且要化度，更何况是人呢？阿弥陀佛又有愿力说：‘如果称念我的名号，必定往生我的国土，如果不是这样，我就誓不成佛。’因此广泛地度化众生，没有穷尽。而人一旦念皈依，就往生到他的国土。由此推断，念佛的功德实在不可思议。’又说，‘如果有人众’

English version: After receiving the prediction, one will attain the Trikaya (three bodies of Buddha: Dharma Body, Reward Body, and Manifestation Body), the Four Wisdoms (Great Perfect Mirror Wisdom, Wonderful Observing Wisdom, Equality Wisdom, and Accomplishing Wisdom), the Five Eyes (Physical Eye, Divine Eye, Wisdom Eye, Dharma Eye, and Buddha Eye), the Six Supernatural Powers, and countless hundreds of thousands of Dharani gates. All merits will be perfectly accomplished. Then, without violating the vow made in An'yang (the Land of Ultimate Bliss), one will return to the Saha World (Suōpó Shìjiè, the world we live in), manifesting countless bodies, pervading the ten directions, using inconceivable, self-existing divine power, and various skillful means to deliver sentient beings, enabling them to be free from defilement, attain pure minds, and be reborn together in the Western Pure Land, entering the state of non-retrogression. Such a great vow, the world is endless, sentient beings are endless, karma and afflictions are endless, and my vows are also endless. Now, I prostrate to the Buddha, make vows, cultivate merits, and dedicate them to all sentient beings, repaying the four kinds of kindness in general: the kindness of parents, the kindness of sentient beings, the kindness of the country, and the kindness of the Three Jewels, so that all beings in the three realms can be assisted, and all beings in the Dharma realm can together perfect the wisdom of the Buddha. Doubts about the Pure Land Selected from 'Direct Pointing to Returning to the Source' Zongben asked: 'Disciple wishes to escape the cycle of birth and death, but does not know which Dharma to rely on for cultivation.' The Chan Master praised: 'At a young age, you have developed such a lofty aspiration! Listen to me, there is a shortcut to cultivation: simply recite the name of Amitabha Buddha (Āmítuó Fó).' Zongben said: 'Ordinary people have many sins. How can one be reborn in the Pure Land by reciting the Buddha's name for only one lifetime?' Answer: 'The Sixteen Contemplations Sutra says that sincerely reciting 'Namo Amitabha Buddha (Nāmó Āmítuó Fó)' once can eradicate the heavy sins of eighty billion kalpas of birth and death. If someone commits the five rebellious acts and ten evil deeds throughout their life, they can still be reborn if they recite Amitabha Buddha ten times at the time of death, let alone those who observe precepts and recite the Buddha's name throughout their lives?' Question: 'Why does Amitabha Buddha have such vast merits and vast vows?' Answer: 'The Larger Sutra of Immeasurable Life says, 'When I attain Buddhahood, my name will surpass the ten directions, and humans and devas will rejoice to hear it and come to be born in my land. Beings in hell, hungry ghosts, and animals will also be born in my land.' Thus, it can be seen that all beings within the cycle of the three realms and six paths can be delivered. Amitabha Buddha is now in the Western Pure Land and is also teaching countless devas and humans in the ten directions, even including tiny flying and wriggling creatures (蜎飞者, refers to tiny flying insects; 蠕动者, refers to tiny maggots). If the Buddha still transforms and delivers such beings, how much more so humans? Amitabha Buddha also has a vow that says, 'If you recite my name, you will surely be born in my land. If not, I vow not to attain Buddhahood.' Therefore, he extensively delivers sentient beings without end. And once a person takes refuge, they are born in his land. From this, it can be inferred that the merit of reciting the Buddha's name is truly inconceivable.' It also says, 'If there are beings' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
