“阿彌陀佛”是偉大稱號 (AMITABHA BUDDHA IS A GREAT NAME)

世人誤解，以爲念“南無阿彌陀佛”佛號，只能為一個死去的人求生極樂世界，殊不知道“阿彌陀佛”既是“無量壽如來”，包含著無量無邊的公德利益，可説是一個偉大的稱號！

念一句“阿彌陀佛”是法界緣起，是淨業正因，是菩提種子，是解脫生死之良藥，是超出三界之徑路，是佛教縂持法門！

誠念一句“阿彌陀佛”能消除八十億劫生死重罪。佛法八万四千法門，以“阿彌陀佛”為第一。
這一句“阿彌陀佛”稱號，包含著無窮無盡的万德，等於念十方三世一切諸佛。因此，修淨土念佛法門者，就是一心一意執持佛號作爲正行！

念一句“阿彌陀佛”佛號，包括八万四千恒河沙數，千千萬萬無量的修行法門！
“阿彌陀佛”四字的全體是一心。心包含著眾德，如：常、樂、我、淨、本覺、始覺、真如佛性，菩提涅盤等等，都為這一名好所攝，包括在這一佛號之中！

所以，修持淨土法門之淨業者，只一心專念“阿彌陀佛”四字，因這是最方便、最簡捷、最有效之方法，以達致究竟莊嚴之佛性。正所謂：“万修万人去”決不會遺漏一個。
