弥陀颂
两百亿国各取长
自在王前宣誓谈
五劫福德五劫功
只为建国舍群众
七宝组成楼台阁
妙水莲池百鸟合
清风飘叶颂法歌
民众个个皆圣众
道友谈论法慧功
寿命无量弥陀赐
娑婆上级逊于此
极乐妙土门何在
诚信愿往弥陀来
不需灭业五逆罪
只需圣号佛心对
但非恶业从此消
五劫福德当底瑶
四十八无量悲愿
都为六道做底垫

Commentary: This poem is a praise to Amitabha, whom build his pure land by taking the best qualities of more than 20 billion other pure lands. Spending 5 aeons to build, Amitabha only requires us to believe in his existence and to have the intention to be reborn there, for him to pick us up. There is no need to repay all negative karma beforehand as Amitabha had used 5 aeons of merits as our guarantor to our creditors that we will repay our debts.
