要符合佛法的傳統源流，又須契應現代人的根機， 令人樂於接受。他以「隨緣不變」的原則，運用各種善巧方便，引 導眾生回歸自心──從依賴他力救助，到自我承擔，在生活修行中 體會自性般若風光；從追求他方淨土，到回歸現實人生，建設淨土 在人間；從重視個人解脫，到體悟生命同體共生，進而發心發願實 踐菩薩道。正因人間佛教契合佛法真理，亦契合時代與眾生根機， 故能弘布全球五大洲，成為人間所需的佛法。 大師以無盡的悲願與智慧，推動佛陀本懷之人間佛教，綜攝如 來正法，貫通古今，融通理事，開創佛法契理契機、惠澤群生的嶄 新格局。其思想宏闊精微，不僅奠定佛教在人間弘揚的基石，更為 心保和尚／佛光山.....

講演集 8：禪學與淨土 Master Hsing Yun’s Lecture Series: Chan and Pure Land
Establishing a Humanistic Pure Land
What is a Pure Land? It is a wonderful land of purity and dignity. More precisely, it is an excellent society, or an elegant world. From our study of the sūtras, we are aware that there is an Amitābha Buddha teaching the Dharma to sentient beings in the Western Pure Land, ten trillion buddha lands away from our sahā world. It is a majestic place of treasures and magnificence, where people lead unparalleled lives, happy and carefree. The Buddha’s teachings have allowed us to recognize that this is undoubtedly true. However, we have never heard of a humanistic Pure Land. Just look around: the negativities around us portray an image of misery.
A Study on the Admonitions of Pure Land (Jingtu Jingyu) by Xingce
Xingce Jieliu 行策截流 (1626-1680) was a famous Pure Land Master during the Qing Dynasty. He devoted himself to the Pure Land practice for self liberation in his early years, and propagated the Pure Land practice for liberating sentient beings in his later years. The Admonitions of Pure Land (Jingtu Jingyu) is Xingce's representative work. Within this work, Xingce emphasized the True Faith for rebirth in the Pure Land and argued that the most expedient Buddhist teaching for rebirth in the Pure Land is the recitation of Amitabha Buddha's name. Xingce adopted Tiantai doctrines as the theoretical foundations to support Pure Land practice. In recognition of his great dedication, Master Yinguang honored Xingce as the 10th patriarch of the Pure Land School.
