勿死执一念佛法
[65] [Do] Not [Be] Inflexibly Attached [To] One Method [For] Mindfulness [Of] Buddha
追顶易受病。
[With] chasing peak [upholding recitation] easily receives sickness [as it is fast and exhausting if practised long].
大声、小声、金刚、默念，随自己精神调停而用。
[Of] loud, soft, vajrā [or] silent recitation, [this is] according [to] one’s vitality, [with] arbitrating then used.
何可死执一法，以至受病乎？
How can [there be] inflexible attachment [to] one method, leading to receiving [of] sickness?
随息不如静听，以随得不好，也会受病。静听不会受病。
Following breathing [while reciting is] not as good as silent listening [as this conserves energy and further focuses the mind]. With following [that is] not well [done, this] also can receive sickness. [With] silent listening, [this] will not receive sickness.
