佛说阿弥陀经讲经文【英】

Texts on the Amitabha Sutra (Shorter Sukhāvatīvyūha Sūtra)

定义

唐代讲经文。存四种六卷，原皆无题，据内容拟题。所存四种，分别演绎了《佛说阿弥陀经》开端部分、西方极乐世界依正庄严之事、舍利佛国种种奇妙杂色之鸟、化身童子的内容。

Four categories of sutra preaching texts (or sutra lectures) in six volumes from the Tang Dynasty, originally untitled; the current title was given according to the manuscript’s content. The four existing categories explain the beginning section of the Amitabha Sutra (Shorter Sukhāvatīvyūha Sūtra), the sublime relation between one’s mind and one’s circumstances in the Western Pure Land of Amitabha (Sukhavati), the wonder of magic and sacred birds singing in the Western Pure Land, and the past lives of the Amitabha Buddha as a Bodhisattva.
