稽首西方安樂剎，彌陀世主大慈尊，  
我依種種修多羅，成就往生決定信。  
住大乘者清淨心，十念念彼無量壽，  
臨終夢佛定往生，大寶積經如是說。  
五逆地獄眾火現，值善知識發猛心，  
十念稱佛即往生，十六觀經如是說。  
若有歡喜信樂心，下至十念即往生，  
若不爾者不成佛，四十八願如是說。  
諸有聞名生至心，一念迴向即往生，  
唯除五逆謗正法，無量壽經如是說。  
臨終不能觀及念，但作生意知有佛，  
此人氣絕即往生，大法鼓經如是說。  
一日一夜懸繒蓋，專念往生心不斷，  
臥中夢佛即往生，無量壽經如是說。  
晝夜一日稱佛名，殷勤精進不斷絕，  
展轉相勸同往生，大悲經中如是說。  
一日二日若七日，執持名號心不亂，  
佛現其前即往生，阿彌陀經如是說。  
若人聞彼阿彌陀，一日二日若過等，  
繫念現前即往生，般舟經中如是說。  
十日十夜六時中，五體禮佛念不斷，  
現見彼佛即往生，鼓音王經如是說。  
十日十夜持齋戒，懸繒旛蓋然香燈，  
繫念不斷得往生，無量壽經如是說。  
若人專念一方佛，或行或坐七七日，  
現身見佛即往生，大集經中如是說。  
若人自誓常經行，九十日中不坐臥，  
三昧中見阿彌陀，佛立經中如是說。  
若人端坐正西向，九十日中常念佛，  
能成三昧生佛前，文殊般若如是說。  
我於眾經頌少分，如是說者無窮盡，  
願同聞者生正信，佛語真實無欺誑。

> I bow my head to the Western Land of Peace and Joy, / to the Lord of the World, Amitābha, the Great Compassionate and Revered One. / Relying upon various sūtras, / I establish decisive faith in rebirth. / A person dwelling in the Mahāyāna with a pure mind, / who is mindful of that Immeasurable Life for ten thoughts, / dreaming of the Buddha on the verge of death is definitely reborn; / as the \*Great Ratnakūṭa Sūtra\* speaks. / When the fires of the hell of the five heinous sins appear, / encountering a good friend and giving rise to a fierce mind, / reciting the Buddha's name for ten thoughts, one is immediately reborn; / as the \*Sūtra on the Sixteen Contemplations\* speaks. / If one has a mind of joy, faith, and delight, / down to ten thoughts, one is immediately reborn; / if it were not so, he would not attain buddhahood; / as the forty-eight vows speak. / All who hear the name and give rise to an utmost mind, / with a single thought dedicating it, are immediately reborn, / only excluding the five heinous sins and slandering the True Dharma; / as the \*Larger Sukhāvatīvyūha Sūtra\* speaks. / If on the verge of death one cannot contemplate or be mindful, / but merely generates an intention and knows there is a Buddha, / when this person's breath ceases, they are immediately reborn; / as the \*Mahābherīhāraka Sūtra\* speaks. / For one day and one night hanging silk canopies, / single-mindedly mindful of rebirth without interruption, / dreaming of the Buddha while lying down, one is immediately reborn; / as the \*Larger Sukhāvatīvyūha Sūtra\* speaks. / Reciting the Buddha's name for one day and night, / diligently striving without interruption, / mutually encouraging one another to be reborn together; / as the \*Mahākāruṇika Sūtra\* speaks. / For one day, two days, or up to seven days, / upholding the name with an undisturbed mind, / the Buddha appearing before them, they are immediately reborn; / as the \*Amitābha Sūtra\* speaks. / If a person hears of that Amitābha, / for one day, two days, or more, / with focused mindfulness present before them, they are immediately reborn; / as the \*Pratyutpanna Samādhi Sūtra\* speaks. / For ten days and ten nights throughout the six periods, / bowing to the Buddha with the five limbs, mindfulness uninterrupted, / seeing that Buddha in person, they are immediately reborn; / as the \*Sūtra on the King of Drum Sound\* speaks. / For ten days and ten nights upholding the fasting precepts, / hanging silk banners and canopies, lighting incense and lamps, / with focused mindfulness uninterrupted, one attains rebirth; / as the \*Larger Sukhāvatīvyūha Sūtra\* speaks. / If a person focuses mindfulness on the Buddha of a single direction, / walking or sitting for seven times seven days, / seeing the Buddha in their present body, they are immediately reborn; / as the \*Mahāsaṃnipāta Sūtra\* speaks. / If a person makes a vow to constantly circumambulate, / for ninety days not sitting or lying down, / seeing Amitābha within samādhi; / as the \*Pratyutpanna Samādhi Sūtra\* speaks. / If a person sits upright facing directly west, / for ninety days constantly being mindful of the Buddha, / they will accomplish samādhi and be born before the Buddha; / as the \*Mañjuśrī Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra\* speaks. / I have praised a small part from the various sūtras, / and what is taught in this way is inexhaustible; / I vow that all who hear this will give rise to right faith, / for the Buddha's words are true and free from deception.
