    2013年6月21日清晨,大密清净极乐弥陀殊胜州的居士们正在佛堂做早课,寺院的师父也来到佛堂门口,和佛堂内的居士一起,高兴地轻声念佛。庄严、肃穆、柔和、恬远的赞佛声传向四方,在凌晨睡梦中的城市回响,托着朝阳缓缓升上天空,开启美好的又一天。

    师父年事已高,行方便法,早上起得很早,一般不和我们居士在一起做早课。我们今日能和师父一起念佛,也真是机会难得。

    早课刚结束,师父高兴地走进佛堂来说:“你们看,鸟儿听到你们唱赞子和念佛的声音,从四面八方都飞来了,都到咱们佛堂门口来了,有些鸟儿还不敢见佛,躲在树背后”。正说着,一只鸟儿飞到了佛堂门口。“你们看,鸟飞进来拜佛了!”师父又说,大家暗自称奇。 “一说它,它还不好意思了”,师父刚说完,那只鸟拍着翅膀又飞走了。

    看着飞去的鸟儿,师父叹了一口气,似在对我们说,又似在对鸟儿们说:“ 你们坐在屋子里念佛多好呢,干嘛非得等变成鸟儿的时候才知道回头呢?等变成鸟了再念佛,什么时候才能变成人身,什么时候才能坐在佛堂里呢?变成个鸟来拜佛,让佛又有什么好的办法呢!只能授它三皈依,让它来日做人好修行!”

    师父的话,将佛对众生怜悯、惋惜、爱护、慈悲、不舍之情表达地淋漓尽致。佛真是慈悲啊,每一个有缘众生都不离不弃,哪怕是一只小小的鸟,都有机会学佛,走上正道。师父的话也如同重鼓敲在我们心头,一语撼醒梦中人,在座居士无不感同身受。能得人身,以人身学佛,是多么不容易的事情。学佛了却不做好事,把这个有用的人身白白浪费掉,还造下了三恶道的因,变成小鸟再回头,这是多么可惜、多么愚痴啊!还是抓住今生难得的机缘,今生大觉今生证,佛道无上誓愿成!
