Pureland Daily Practice by Yogi C.M. Chen

Post by cjdevries »

This Pure Land daily practice was compiled and translated by Dr. Yutang Lin under the guidance of Yogi C.M. Chen:

In the Epilogue, he writes the following:

"I finished compiling the Pureland Daily Practice in the evening of August 21, 1989. The next morning, just before I woke up, I dreamed that in my house on top of a bookcase there were three boxes of birdies just hatched from their eggs, and in my dining room all over the floor were tiny white swans with golden beaks also just hatched from their eggs.

I believe that this is a very auspicious omen, signifying that many practitioners will be reborn through adopting this Pureland Daily Practice. The birdies on top of the bookcase signify that the practice is based on knowledge, yet goes beyond studies. The swans on the floor in the dining room signify that those practitioners who do the practice as regularly as people taking meals, will obtain solid grounding.

I recorded and explained this dream in order to encourage and add faith to the practitioners of this practice. May the blessings of Buddha, Dharma and Sangha be with you always!"

Here are two additional links; the first is a link to the blessed picture of Amitabha and the second is a link to special protection blessings, including a mantra sheet of Amitabha that can be burned to help deceased beings find liberation or rebirth in the Pure Land as well as a photo that can help one find protection from ghosts, as well as an Avalokiteshvara mantra sheet that can be burned to help people find solutions to small worldly problems:
