8.7

I once exhorted the scholar Zou Binwang of Zhenjiang with the teaching of the West, and said: "If you have no leisure, merely join your palms facing west each morning and recite 'Namo Amitābha Buddha' ten times, and that will also suffice." Binwang believed it. That night he dreamed that he and another scholar went together before an official court of law. In his terror, he then recited Amitābha Buddha, and upon reaching ten recitations he awoke. Was this not the Buddha strengthening his faith by this means?
