寶 贵 人 生
Our human life, is characterized by impermanence, suffering from blind passions and the lack of an independent soul. Yet, human birth is extremely rare and becomes really precious to us, the moment when we would use it as the perfect receptacle to listen deeply to the Buddha Dharma and to receive Amida Buddha’s Boundless Compassion…
This human life is fleeting and impermanent
With suffering arising from blind passions
Though illusory and abides in emptiness
Shows us the uncreated Land of Happiness
The Buddha’s Infinite merits and virtues
Are bestowed equally on all beings
May all accept Amida’s Gift of Shinjin
And obtain birth in His Land of Peace and Bliss
Suffering beings like ourselves do not know why we are born here – in an ever-changing environment firmly attached to greed, hatred, ignorance, jealousy and arrogance – living perhaps for only a short period of a 100 years and then blindly leaving this world in agony for another unknown existence of continued pain and suffering. How painfully foolish and blind we are, not making use of this precious human birth which has brought us the right condition to free ourselves from samsara – the vicious cycle of birth and death.
This precious human birth is extremely rare and most difficult to obtain amongst the six realms within samsara – our perpetual and unsatisfactory home of painful existence for billions of lives. A human birth becomes really “precious” only if one would use it beneficially, as a receptacle for the Buddha Dharma and for receiving the appropriate instructions that could lead one permanently out of samsara. Otherwise, human birth is just the same as the other types of samsaric birth – it is simply another unsatisfactory existence perpetuating the vicious cycle of birth and death.
