今天农历十二月初八是本师的成道日。南无本师释迦牟尼佛。南无阿弥陀佛。
Today, the 8th day of the 12th lunar month, is the Buddha’s Enlightenment Day. Homage to our fundamental teacher Śākyamuni Buddha. Námó Āmítuófó.
May we be diligent in continual learning, practice and sharing, to not let the Buddha, ourselves and others down.
当知我于五浊恶世，行此难事，
得阿耨多罗三藐三菩提，
为一切世间说此难信【净土】之法，
是为甚难。
释迦牟尼佛
《佛说阿弥陀经》
You should know that I, in this Five Defilements’ Evil Period, did these difficult matters, of attaining Anuttarā Samyak Saṃbodhi, and for all in the world spoke this difficult to believe [Pure Land] Dharma, which is extremely difficult.
Śākyamuni Buddha
(Sūtra In Which The Buddha Speaks Of Amitābha Buddha)
