 No Matter What

English translation by Householder Jingtu

 

 

 

No matter what, Amitabha's Fundamental Vow

Is like diamond, never changing.

 

No matter what, Amitabha thinks of me

Like a mother remembers her child, never abandoning it.

 

No matter what, Amitabha is with me

Every moment, never letting me go. 


No matter what, sinful sentient beings

Need Amitabha and the deliverance of his Fundamental Vow.

 

No matter how contaminated and impure,

False and hypocritical are sentient beings,

Amitabha's deliverance never changes.

 

No matter how sentient beings desire and detest,

Are deluded and vicious,

Amitabha's deliverance never changes.

 

No matter how deep beings' offenses and heavy their afflictions,

However intense their sufferings,

Amitabha's deliverance never changes.

 

No matter how beings commit the Five Gravest Offenses,

Or slander the Dharma and lack self-cultivation,

Amitabha's deliverance never changes.


Because the Fundamental Vow exists, our minds are at ease,

Hope arises and people turn virtuous.

 

Because no matter what, no matter what,

Amitabha Buddha's deliverance is certain,

Amitabha Buddha's deliverance is certain.
