Master Da'an replied: Even the ancestors of Pure Land Sect have different judgments on the same issue. How can they be harmonious?

Chinese Master 2014-01-26

ask:Nowadays, various Buddhist struggles are strong, not only between different methods, but also within the Pure Land Dharma. There are many different opinions on the same issue, and they all say that they are based on the scriptures or ancient sages. What's going on?How should we do it?Even the ancestors of Pure Land Sect have different judgments on the same issue. Most people just say that they are harmonious. How to have a harmonious method? Please give me compassion.

Master Da'an replied: The strong struggle is also a manifestation of the Dharma-Ending End.But when you encounter these strong struggles, don’t struggles yourself, just don’t follow the changes.

For example, when everyone has different views on a problem in the Pure Land Dharma, you should not regard it as a product of the solid struggle. It may be because everyone has different perspectives on the problem, so the views you draw will also be different.If you look at it in a harmonious way, it may complement each other, looking at it from a ridge to a side, it becomes a peak.At the same time, you need to understand the ancestors of all generations, and they do not have a standard answer to the same question.Zen Buddhism answers questions about scholars at the question and questions at the answer, which is nothing more than untie the stickiness and bondage for scholars.The Pure Land Sect’s ancestors focused more on making people break their doubts and gaining faith. Therefore, the answers to many questions are to increase your faith in Amitabha’s great vows and Pure Land methods, and to increase your motivation for honest chanting Buddha’s name, then it can be said that his views are basically not outrageous and not distorted.If a view makes you feel reasonable when you hear it, but it actually increases your suspicion, makes your practice more negligent, and you cannot raise your mind that is disgusted with the Saha world and seeks bliss, then there may be problems with this view.So no matter what, the condition for rebirth is to believe in and hold the name, which no one can subvert.This is without any doubt.The question may be, how to determine the level of rebirth?Should we be reborn with karma or eliminated?Do you have to recite the mind to be calm or to achieve success?It is very likely that I have been confused here, and many people have asked questions about this over the years.In this regard, you must build faith in the level of Amitabha’s great compassion and vows.In the Buddhist scriptures, Amitabha’s forty-eight great vows do not tell us that we must recite until we have completed our practice to be reborn.Of course, it is definitely best if you can recite the Kung Fu until you have a complete set of kung fu. If you can’t recite it, you can be reborn as long as you have deep faith and sincere wishes, and even ten times of reciting it. This is the message conveyed to us by Amitabha’s great vow.The Pure Land Dharma is a very perfect and sudden method, even if you are faithful and happy, even if you dedicate your merits with one thought, you will be reborn and will not regress.After the faith and vows are established, you should recite the Buddha's name more, 10,000, 20,000, or 30,000 a day, and the more you recite, the better;In daily behavior, you must pursue the three blessings of pure karma. If you do this, you will probably not deviate.There are many specific views and opinions, so don’t listen too much.The Pure Land Dharma is a straightforward approach, without any convenience.If anyone is right and who is wrong, don’t think so much about it. That is, the ordinary mind is the Buddha’s heart. Without these debates, no matter what, as long as I believe in and recite the Buddha’s name, Amitabha Buddha will definitely accept it.While we are chanting the Buddha's name, the Buddha is actually chanting us with more compassion.We are the only son of Amitabha Buddha. Amitabha Buddha cannot bear to suffer here, and he will definitely save us.You need to have a very simple confidence and there is no room for discussion on this issue.This is a kind of sentiment, a kind of confidence.So we need to build this confidence and not listen to so many arguments.
