Do Not Lose The Dharma Door Of Mindfulness Of Buddha

「多有菩萨,欲闻此经,而不能得。若有众生,闻此经者,于无上道,终不退转。是故应当专心信受,持诵说行。」

释迦牟尼佛
《无量寿经》

‘[There] are many Bodhisattvas,* [who] desire [to] hear this sūtra, yet not able [to] attain [it]. If [there] are sentient beings, who hear this sūtra, of [the] unsurpassable path, [they will to the] end not retrogress. Therefore, [you] should, [with] focused minds faithfully accept, uphold, recite, speak [and] practise [this].’

Śākyamuni Buddha
(Immeasurable Life Sūtra)

「由于此法,不听闻故,有一亿菩萨,退转阿耨多罗三藐三菩提。」

释迦牟尼佛
《大宝积经·无量寿如来会》

‘Due to this [Pure Land] Dharma not heard thus, [there] is one koṭi [of] Bodhisattvas,* [who] retrogress [from] Anuttarā Samyak Saṃbodhi.’

Śākyamuni Buddha
