32) 不斷持名

　　Uninterrupted Recitation

　　Recite in the morning, recite in the evening, recite when you are at leisure, recite when you are busy, recite in clean places, recite in unclean places – there should not be a single thought which is not of the Buddha. Even if you have to entertain friends and serve guests every day and thus have to interrupt your recitation, only vocal recitation should be interrupted, not mental recitation. Practicing with such constancy, you can easily achieve samadhi.

　　朝也念，暮也念，無事也念，有事也念，淨處也念，穢處也念，無有一念非佛者，即 使日用應酬有時間斷，然斷其言句不能斷其真命脈也，功夫至此，成片易矣！
