真好偈
Verse On True Goodness
有心就好者,
其实不够好。
身口意皆修,
才是真正好。
Those who claim having good intentions will do, are actually not good enough. With deeds, words and thoughts all cultivated, then are they truly good.
好念偈
Verse On Good Mindfulness
不知归西路,
不念弥陀名,
说一路走好,
不如助念好。
Not knowing the path for ‘returning’ to the Western Pure Land Of Ultimate Bliss, not mindful of Āmítuófó’s name (阿弥陀佛), just saying ‘on your whole journey, leave well’, this is not as good as support-chanting.
【助念前,先开示】
[Before support-chanting, first offer guidance]
