賣酒者當自念云：五穀本以養人，今糜爛為酒，使人飲之，多為不善，是誰之過？宜常自懺悔，念阿彌陀佛，發大願云：「願我賣酒以來。一切壞五穀之罪悉以消滅。見佛得道之後，盡度脫所用為酒五穀種蒔之時，一切所殺微細眾生，及一切致力眾生，及一切飲酒之人，使皆生淨土。」如是念念不絕，念自純熟，定生極樂世界。若轉以化人，使更相勸化，現世則可以滅罪而長福，身後必中品生。

Wine sellers should reflect to themselves: "The five grains were originally meant to nourish people, but now I rot and ferment them into wine, causing people who drink it to commit much unwholesomeness. Whose fault is this?" One should constantly repent, recite Amitābha Buddha, and make a great vow: "I vow that all my sins of destroying the five grains since I began selling wine will be entirely eliminated. After seeing the Buddha and attaining the Way, I will completely deliver and liberate all the tiny sentient beings killed when the five grains used for wine were planted and cultivated, all the sentient beings that exerted their labor, and all the people who drank wine, causing them all to be born in the Pure Land." Reciting mindfulness after mindfulness without interruption like this, when mindfulness naturally matures, one will definitely be born in Sukhāvatī. If one further transforms others, having them mutually exhort and transform one another, in the present life one can extinguish sins and increase blessings, and after death one will surely be born in the middle grade.
