遇缘解脱的净土法门 Liberation by Encounter, New Perspective of Rebirth into Pure Land

Description: 遇缘解脱思想是善导大师净土思想核心内容之一。本书系统地从爱乐有缘、九品往生、一心不乱、临终判断四大篇章阐述遇缘解脱思想的理论。进而解决了个体修行者的两种焦虑：对一心不乱念佛往生的信心以及对现世临终没有把握从而无法投入世俗生活。本书更解决了净土宗在传播过程中出现的两种矛盾：一是教团发展之间对上述四个方面的认识不同，所出现的修行方法和理论上的矛盾。二是教团发展过程中，如果把往生讲述的太容易，会出现活动人数减少影响教团发展壮大。反之，如果难度说很大，是可以督促信众修行并对教派产生更多依赖，有利于发展壮大，但对往生增加了难度，而尺度一旦太大，就有违背佛本愿的可能。净土宗无论是传播者还是信仰者，在其宗教实践过程中会出现很多问题，这些问题无法解决就会给他们带来很多焦虑和矛盾。本书就是解决这些问题的最好门径。 The idea of liberation by an encounter is one of the core elements of Master Shandao's Pure Land thought. This book systematically expounds on the idea of liberation by an encounter in four major chapters: love and happiness from destiny, the nine grades of rebirth, single-mindedness, and certitude at the end of life. It addresses two anxieties of individual practitioners: their confidence in the power of recitation of the name of Amitabha to the state of single-mindedness and their uncertainty about their state at deathbed in the future, which prevents them from committing to a full blossoming secular life. The book also addresses two contradictions that have arisen in the spread of Pure Land Buddhism: first, the contradictions between practice and theory that have arisen due to the different understanding of the four aspects mentioned above accompanying the development of the religious Order of pure land. Secondly, in the development of the Order, if the rebirth is believed to be too easy, there will be a decrease in the number of members adhering to the Order; on the other hand, if the difficulty of rebirth is said to be great, it is possible to urge the faithful to practice diligently and become more dependent on the Order, which is conducive to the development and growth of the Order, but it increases the difficulty for rebirth in the mind of its believers, and once the scale is too high, there is the possibility of going against the Buddha's original wish and teaching. Both propagators and believers of Pure Land Buddhism will have many problems in the course of their religious practice, and the failure to solve these problems will cause them much anxiety and contradiction. This book is the best doorway to solve these problems.
