往生淨土決疑行願二門 1.28

1.28

「至心懺悔。我弟子（某甲）及法界眾生，從無始世來，無明所覆顛倒迷惑，而由六根三業習不善法，廣造十惡及五無間一切眾罪，無量無邊說不可盡。十方諸佛常在世間，法音不絕、妙香充塞、法味盈空，放淨光明照觸一切，常住妙理遍滿虛空。我無始來，六根內盲、三業昏闇，不見不聞、不覺不知，以是因緣長流生死經歷惡道，百千萬劫永無出期。經云『毘盧遮那遍一切處，其佛所住名常寂光。』是故當知一切諸法無非佛法。而我不了，隨無明流，是則於菩提中見不清淨，於解脫中而起纏縛。今始覺悟、今始改悔，奉對諸佛彌陀世尊發露懺悔，當令我與法界眾生三業六根，無始所作現作當作、自作教他、見聞隨喜，若憶不憶、若識不識、若疑不疑、若覆若露，一切重罪畢竟清淨。我懺悔已，六根三業淨無瑕累，所修善根悉亦清淨，皆悉迴向莊嚴淨土，普與眾生同生安養。願阿彌陀佛常來護持，令我善根現前增進，不失淨因。臨命終時身心正念，視聽分明，面奉彌陀與諸聖眾，手執華臺接引於我，一剎那頃生在佛前，具菩薩道廣度眾生同成種智。」（懺悔發願已，歸命禮阿彌陀佛及一切三寶，應具三說。若時促及事迫，一說亦得。次旋繞法，或三匝或七匝，乃至多匝。口稱云：）

"With utmost sincerity I repent: I, disciple [so-and-so], and sentient beings of the dharmadhātu, from beginningless kalpas, have been covered by ignorance, inverted, and deluded; relying on the six sense faculties and three karmic actions, we have practiced unwholesome phenomena, extensively committing the ten unwholesome actions, the five uninterrupted avīci offenses, and all sins, measureless, boundless, and unspeakable. All Buddhas of the ten directions are ever-present in the world, the sound of the Dharma never ceasing, wondrous fragrance filling [space], the flavor of the Dharma overflowing the void, releasing pure radiance shining upon all, and the ever-abiding wondrous principle pervading the empty space. Yet from beginningless time, my six sense faculties have been internally blind, and my three karmic actions dark and obtuse; I did not see, hear, perceive, or know. Due to these causes and conditions, I have drifted long in birth and death, passing through evil paths for hundreds of thousands of myriads of kalpas without time of release. The sūtra says: 'Vairocana pervades all places; where that Buddha abides is called the Eternal Silent Light.' Therefore, one should know that all phenomena are none other than the Buddha Dharma. Yet because I did not understand and followed the flow of ignorance, within bodhi I perceived impurity, and within liberation I gave rise to bondage. Only now do I awaken; only now do I reform and repent. Before the Buddhas and Amitābha, the World-Honoured One, I disclose and repent, praying that for myself and all sentient beings of the dharmadhātu, through the three karmic actions and six sense faculties, whatever heavy sins have been committed from beginningless time, are being committed now, or will be committed, done by oneself or teaching others, seen and heard with rejoicing, remembered or unremembered, recognized or unrecognized, doubted or undoubting, concealed or revealed, may all be completely purified. Having repented, may my six sense faculties and three karmic actions be pure and free from flaws, and may all roots of goodness cultivated also be pure, all dedicated to adorning the Pure Land, so that universally with all sentient beings we may be born together in Peaceful Nourishment. May Amitābha Buddha constantly come to protect and sustain me, causing my roots of goodness to increase in the present, not losing the pure cause. At the time of approaching the end of life, may body and mind remain in right mindfulness, seeing and hearing clearly, directly beholding Amitābha and all the noble assembly holding the flower dais in hand to welcome and lead me, and in a single kṣaṇa may I be born before the Buddha, fully endowed with the bodhisattva path, extensively delivering sentient beings, and together accomplishing all-knowledge." (Having repented and made vows, take refuge and bow to Amitābha Buddha and all Three Jewels; this should ideally be spoken three times. If time is short and pressed by affairs, speaking it once is also acceptable. Next is the circumambulation ritual, either three times, seven times, or many times, reciting aloud:)
