觀世音菩薩普門品
Guan Yin Bodhisattva
We all know Guan Yin Bodhisattva. Among the Three Sacred Saints in the Pure Land of Amitabha, he ranks the first among the Bodhisattvas. There is a saying that Guan Yin Bodhisattva is adorned by every family and every household worships Amitabha.Therefore, all people are very familar with Guan Yin Bodhisattva. The Bodhisattva had attained Buddhahood in the past and is called Zheng Fa Ming Tathagata Buddha . He returns to us as Bodhisattva with great compassion. After the Nirvana of Amitabha Buddha, Guan Yin Bodhisattva will appear as a Buddha with the title, Merit Hill Tathagata. His land is called Universal Merit and Solemnity. It is even more solemn than the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss and Joy.
觀世音菩薩
觀世音菩薩這位大菩薩我們都知道,在西方三聖裡面,祂是阿彌陀佛的上首菩薩。我們中國有:家家觀世音,戶戶阿彌陀「的講法,所以大家對觀世音菩薩都很熟悉。觀世音菩薩過去就是佛,名號叫」正法明如來「,現在是倒駕慈航現菩薩身的,以後阿彌陀佛涅槃之後,觀世音菩薩示現成佛,名號為」功德山王如來「, 國土名號叫」普及功德莊嚴「, 那個國土比極樂世界還要莊嚴。

There are many levels of Bodhisattvas, such as ten faiths, ten stages, ten actions, ten dedications of merits, ten grounds, as well as universal enlightenment like Buddha and utmost enlightenments. Guan Yin Bodhisattva has attained universal enlightenment and is a real grand Bodhisattva. His nature will never deteriorate, unlike the Bodhisattvas at the causal ground who are Bodhisattvas only when their Bodhicitta arises; when their Bodhicitta diminishes, they are no longer Bodhisattvas.

菩薩裡面也有很多級別,有十信、十住、十行、十迴向、十地,還有等覺、妙覺、觀世音菩薩屬於等覺菩薩,是真正的大菩薩,永遠不會變質的,不像我們因地的菩薩,一念菩提心發起來就是菩薩, 一會兒菩提心退了,就不是菩薩了。
——摘自傳喜法師2003年《觀世音菩薩普門品講記》(即《永恆的甘露》一書)
迴向
文殊師利勇猛智
普賢慧行亦復然
我今迴向諸善根
隨彼一切常修學
三世諸佛所稱嘆
如是最勝諸大願
我今迴向諸善根
為得普賢殊勝行
賢劫千佛心 響崖大德知現後中救我 脫輪到菩提
