【皈依 Taking refuge】越苦皈依心越强 The more sufferings you have, the more earnest your refuge

皈依 : 越苦皈依心越强

你懂得了道理，那个身心跟它相应了，怎么会说念了半天，念不去的，对不对？怎么会念了到苦的时候又丢掉的？不可能嘛！假定你苦的时候丢掉了，你根本不懂得什么是皈依；如果你懂得了，苦的时候决定丢不掉，不但丢不掉，一定是会越苦念得越好。

【Taking refuge】– The more sufferings you have, the more earnest your refuge

If you understand the principles and your body and mind concord accordingly, then how could you not end up going [to Pure Land] after much recitation [of Buddha’s name]? Right? Why would you be giving up the recollection [of Buddha] upon suffering? Impossible! If you give it up during suffering, then you fundamentally do not know what refuge is. If you understand what it is, then you certainly will not give it up in times of suffering. Not only will you not give it up, surely the more suffering you have, the better your recollection/recitation [of the Buddha/Buddha’s name].
