Why is Pure Land Buddhism particularly emphasizing making vows

Master Da'an 2020-11-18

Relying on Amitabha’s compassion and vows to achieve the ease of life and death, where is the ease of life and death?It does not necessarily require the skill of concentration and wisdom, as long as you have deep faith and sincere wishes.Starting from faith and using faith and wish to convey Amitabha Buddha's great compassion and vows, this matter is indeed a great secret in the Dharma Realm.

These are the forty-eight great vows achieved by Amitabha Buddha, which radiates his energy field to the infinite dusts of the Buddha lands in the ten directions in the Dharma Realm.Then the thoughts of us sentient beings actually have a corresponding relationship in the entire Dharma realm.Among the ten Dharma realms, our thoughts always fall into which Dharma realm we will respond to.If you are in aroused, you will definitely reach the corresponding Dharma Realm.

Now Amitabha Buddha provides a strong opportunity to liberation and become a Buddha with the huge magnetic field of the forty-eight great vows.As long as you have deep faith and sincere wishes, the energy of this thought will interact with Amitabha’s energy field.To sense this energy field, you have to make a vow.

Why do we sentient beings make vows?If you don’t make a vow, you can’t interact with this energy field.It’s like you are a grass that cannot interact or induce this energy field.But as soon as you make a vow, your current thought becomes similar to an iron needle, which corresponds to this large magnetic field.Because it has great power and high density, it can: you turn into an iron needle, and it can absorb you and suck it in.

But if you don’t make a vow, there is nothing you can do.For example, in the sects and teachings, he has a deep skill in cultivating precepts, concentration and wisdom, but if he does not make a vow, he will not be able to go.Why can't he go?It is because he cannot communicate with this Amitabha energy field, although his heart is very pure, like a piece of jade.But this jade cannot interact with this magnetic field, and he cannot absorb it.Must be homogeneous.

Why does the Pure Land Sect particularly emphasize making vows?There are three times in the Amitabha Sutra that you can be reborn as long as you make a vow: if you have already wished, you have been reborn; if you have now wished, you will be reborn in this life; if you have as wished, you will be reborn.This is: As long as Amitabha’s great vow and our vows are communicated and as long as we enter, we can be reborn.This is called "Ten Thousand Cultivation and Ten Thousand People Go".
