念佛鏡 1.69

1.69

答：「准《雜集經》說：『一度謗念佛人，千劫墮泥梨地獄；一度讚念佛人，滅却身中百劫極重惡業。』大行和上說：『人不志心念佛，亦謗佛，故遂即謗法，直入阿鼻獄中，受諸苦痛，無有出期。』」

Answer: "According to the Zaji jing: 'Slandering a practitioner of buddhānusmṛti once causes one to fall into the Naraka hell for a thousand kalpas; praising a practitioner of buddhānusmṛti once eradicates extremely heavy evil karma of a hundred kalpas from one's body.' Preceptor Daxing said: 'If a person does not recite the Buddha's name with a sincere mind, he also slanders the Buddha, and consequently slanders the Dharma, entering directly into the Avīci hell, suffering all pains without a time of release.'"
