Briefly stated, there are five reasons: first, non-Buddhists who simulate goodness disrupt the bodhisattva Dharma; second, unprincipled evil people ruin others' superior virtue; third, inverted wholesome fruits can destroy pure conduct; fourth, the self-benefit of śrāvakas obstructs great compassion; fifth, there is only self-power. It is like a lame person walking on foot, covering no more than a few li in a day. As for the easy path, it means having faith in the Buddha's teaching of the samādhi of buddha-mindfulness, riding upon the power of Amitābha's vow to be embraced and sustained, and definitely attaining rebirth. It is like someone sailing a boat on water, traveling a thousand li in an instant. It is also like a lowly man who follows a wheel-turning king, circling the four continents in a single day and night: this is not his own power, but the power of the wheel-turning king." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.294](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1969a.1.294) - [Next: 1.296](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1969a.1.296) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1969a.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1969a~en-mt.1.295) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1969a.1.295](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1969a.1.295) · Pramāṇa
