修行则勤劳暂时,
安乐永劫;
懈怠则偷安一世,
受苦多生。 

净土宗十一祖省庵大师
《劝发菩提心文》 

Cultivating [Pure Land] practice [now, is] thus diligence [for a] brief period, [for] peace [and] bliss [of] everlasting kalpas; [while] laziness [is] thus seeking [of] thoughtless pleasures [for only] one whole lifetime, [with] experience [of] suffering [for] many [future] lifetimes [when positive karma exhausts].

Pure Land Tradition’s 11th Patriarch Great Master Xǐng’ān
(Essay [On] Exhortation [To] Give Rise [To] Bodhicitta)   

Please be mindful of your speech, Amituofo!
