Vigorous Buddha Recitation Session I.
Origin: The
Sutras say that the Amitabha Sutra will be the last Sutra to
disappear during this present age. It will remain in the world longer
than any other Buddhist Sutra. It is a compassionate ship for living
beings to rely upon this Dharma-Ending Age. After the Amitabha
Sutra disappears, only the sagely phrase of "Namo Amitabha
Buddha" will remain. After that disappears, only the name
"Amitabha Buddha" will remain. From this we can know that
the teaching host of the West, Amitabha Buddha, has deep affinities
with living beings of our Saha World. The II.
