念佛灭罪[最有力]
[With] Mindfulness [Of] Buddha Eliminating Transgressions [Is Most Powerful]
大智度论云： 「有诸菩萨，自念谤大般若， 堕恶道，历无量劫， 虽修余行，不能灭罪。 后遇知识教念阿弥陀佛， 乃得灭障，超生净土。」
‘[The] Treatise [On] Great Wisdom’s Perfection’ says, ‘[There] are many Bodhisattvas, [who are] personally mindful [of having] slandered [the] Great Prajñā, falling [into] evil paths, passing immeasurable kalpas, [who] although cultivate other practices, [are] not able [to] eliminate [their] transgressions. Later meeting [good-]knowing [friends, who] teach [them to be] mindful [of] Āmítuófó, then attaining eliminating [of] obstacles, transcending [to be] born [in his] Pure Land.’
赞曰：「至心念佛一声，灭八十亿劫重罪。」此其明征乎！ 所以者何？至心故也。 若匪至心，罪则不灭。毋曰圣训之无稽哉！
[As] praises say, ‘[With the] sincere mind mindful [of] Buddha [with] one recitation, [this] eliminates eighty koṭis’ kalpas [of] heavy transgressions.’ This [is] its clear proof! Why [is] that so? [It is with the] sincere mind thus. If not [with the] sincere mind, transgressions [are] then not eliminated. Do not say [the Great] Sage’s [i.e. Śākyamuni Buddha] instruction is nonsense!
