[514] 临终助念有哪三大要点？
[514] What Are [The] Three Great Essential Points [When] Approaching [Life’s] End [With] Support-Chanting?
◎ 第一，善巧开导安慰，令生正信。第二，大家换班念佛，以助净念。第三，切戒搬动哭泣，以防误事。果能依此三法以行，决定可以消除宿业，增长净因，蒙佛接引，往生西方。
◎ [Summary]: First, skilfully inspire, guide [and] console [the dying person, to] enable giving rise [to] right Faith. Second, everyone [should] take shifts [to] recite [Āmítuó]fó[’s name (阿弥陀佛)], so as to support pure mindfulness. Third, [you] must avoid [touching or] moving [the body and] crying, so as to prevent bungling [the] matter [of reaching Pure Land]. If able [to] rely on these three teachings for practice, [one] can definitely eliminate past [evil] karmas, increase pure causes, [and] receive [the] Buddha’s reception [and] guidance, [for] rebirth [in his] Western [Pure Land Of Ultimate Bliss (极乐世界)].
