《劝发菩提心文》
Essay On Exhortation To Give Rise To The Bodhi Mind
净土宗十一祖省庵大师著
Written By The Pure Land Tradition’s 11th Patriarch Great Master Xǐng’ān
To give rise to the Bodhi Mind is to have the aspiration to practise the Bodhisattva path (菩萨道) to benefit one and all. Thus, only with the Bodhi Mind is the attainment of Buddhahood (佛果) possible. Being mindful of Āmítuófó’s (Amitābha Buddha) name with profound Faith (深信) and sincere Aspiration (切愿) based on the Bodhi Mind also guarantees higher grades of birth in his Pure Land (净土).
This sincere exhortation text is a deeply inspiring essay. Composed in the Qīng Dynasty (清朝), this timeless teaching is so touching that it continues to move many to tears with its heartfelt message, to nurture universal compassion (慈悲) with ten factors, for the realisation of perfect wisdom (智慧) and all other virtues.
