經The sutra states : “All living creatures in the world, come with intelligence of Buddha, are not aware of the natural wisdom instead of the foolish, the infatuated and the puzzled.” On the other hand, that indicates everybody is supposed to obtain chance on transcending into Buddha from the ordinary! How to keep going on practicing Buddhism at home, other than be a monk or nun, if one man could reach the achievement of Buddhism? For what reason, the ancient elites often advised the disciples to grasp the name of Buddha, retain Buddha in mind, as one way to reach achievement of Buddhism in numerous approaches. “Initial approach of shortcut which is easy and efficient,” Zhen Xie Liao (真歇了禪師, a zen master, a honorific Buddhist monk ) said, “only retain Buddha in mind, a fast accomplishment after seeking survival Sukhavati, can make people transcend into holiness from worldliness quickly.” A proverb said : “Every man for himself, and the devil takes the hindmost.” “All living creatures in the world,” Buddha also said, “pursue their own profits all day long.” With chasing a little benefit, people often neglect other’s feeling and aspects. Therefore, injuring each other behavior is accrued even make both sides suffer failure. But the essence of Buddha dharma, regarded as a kind of virtue, should be profits available to each other. However, Buddhism is supposed to enter the world of human beings and enlighten all living creatures. May Buddha bless all living creatures enable to avoid fearing about coming disaster in the future. But it is difficult for all people to prevent suffering from calamity by practicing Buddhism in a bustle society today. There are two different ways in practicing Buddhism. First, the difficult access is required hardworking. Moreover, the easy access is retreated comfortably. A sutra states: “It is a long-term suffering for becoming a Buddha.” Easy access depending on three elements ( faith, willing & carrying out ), takes advantage of praying Buddha’s name strength for landing degree of never drawing back. For what reason that praying to Buddha for living pure land of Amitabha is one of easy accesses to reach achievement of practicing Buddhism. Therefore, we must believe the force of Buddha is really existing with getting rid of prejudiced presumption that ordinary men can not turn to be a Buddha through practicing. A sutra states : “Buddha only emerges from the world of human beings instead of heaven.” Only human beings, possess ability to accept Buddha Dharma, realize the truth and get a chance to transcend into holiness from worldliness. We, all people, should also hold this chance, for example, to practice the ideal Humanistic Buddhism. Meanwhile, we can improve our social atmosphere, promote society in progress, and purify the circumstances of human beings.
