【THE THREE TYPES OF PERSONS】- Do not reject (the training) at causal stage
Often we talk about going for a deep dive or going further into it, yet we stop right at the entrance and think of it as doing a deep dive. Actually, that is not it, not there yet, no advancement at all, how can there be depth? Just like this.
However, we should not disregard the above! Generally speaking, because we have faith in meeting Amitabha Buddha and he will definitely teach us everything, this concept is flawless. What is the fault? It is the aforementioned, once you get to the Pure Land, you still need to learn from Amitabha Buddha. So do not reject the training at this causal stage. If you reject the practice, when the time comes the seeds of rejection will still be there! They are not removed. This is the key concept.

道次引导 : 不要在因地当中排拒
平常我们说一门深入、一门深入啊,跑到门口停在这里呀,说叫一门深入。其实呢没有,里边没有,一点东西都没有,深到哪里去?就这样。
不过我们不要轻视哦!平常就一般来说的话,他还是—因为我们信得过,到了见了阿弥陀佛,他当然把所有的东西告诉我们,这个本身是没有错的。错在哪里呢?就是前面说过的,你将来去了以后一定还要学他,所以不要现在因地当中排拒了一切,排拒了一切,你到了时候,那个种子还在那里呀!拿不掉的。这个是它真正重要的概念。
