持齋念佛懺悔禮文 1.25

1.25

Namo Amitābha Buddha. Looking now upon this body, it is truly loathsome: a nominally designated body of various impurities, supported by three hundred fragment bones; how could this leaking form ever have a sliver of truth? Rouge and vermilion lips are vainly adorned; in the end it returns beneath the earth to become dust. Afflictions blaze without rest; all are causes of wandering through the three wretched paths. Universally encourage all the assembly in the bodhimaṇḍa: exert effort and diligently cultivate the causes for the Pure Land; may we, together with all sentient beings, be reborn in the Land of Peace and Bliss.
