龍舒增廣淨土文 8.11

8.11

予舊相識劉仲慧，湖州長興人，以夜夢多恐懼，予勸以念阿彌陀佛。慧仲至誠聲念一百八遍，當夜遂安寢。次日如前念誦，自此皆得安寢。以此見佛力廣大無所不可。此予序所謂安靜形神者也。

My old acquaintance Liu Huizhong was a native of Changxing in Huzhou. Because he had many frightening dreams at night, I urged him to recite Amitābha Buddha. Huizhong, with utter sincerity, recited aloud one hundred and eight times, and that very night he slept peacefully. The next day he recited as before, and from then on he always slept peacefully. From this one can see that the Buddha's power is vast and can accomplish anything. This is what my preface referred to as 'bringing peace and tranquility to the body and spirit.'
