A Prayer for Victims of the 2025 Myanmar Earthquake

By Prayers

恭讀佛光山開山祖師星雲大師〈為大地震祈願文〉2025.3.29 慈悲偉大的佛陀！三月二十八日中午，緬甸、泰國地區發生大地震了！ 您可曾聽到苦難眾生的呼號？您可曾看到親人離散的慘痛？ 佛陀啊！佛陀！那是人間地獄發出的哀嚎！那是娑婆浩劫傳出的聲音！ 慈悲偉大的佛陀！那裡，山崩地裂，房倒屋毀，那裡，樓倒人亡，觸目驚心； 多少人身陷災區中，日夜恐慌； 多少人困在危地裡，無法出離。在一夕間，骨肉離散，天人永隔；在剎那間，家園全毀，財物盡失。 他們多麼需要救難人員及時來到！他們多麼需要佛陀您加持與庇護！他們有的不幸罹難了，他們有的無辜傷殘了。   慈悲偉大的佛陀！祈求您的加被， 讓他們生者消災免難，健康如昔； 讓他們亡者往生佛國，蓮登九品。 慈悲偉大的佛陀！請求您讓他們都能體悟：　現實的家園會有成住壞空，　自己的本性才能永恆安住；請求您讓他們都能了解：　即使骨肉至親，也會有生離死別，　只有證悟解脫，才是究竟的依靠。 慈悲偉大的佛陀！請求您庇佑劫後餘生的人們，賜給他們再生的信心，　讓他們知道：活著就有希望；賜給他們向前的勇氣，　讓他們明白：生存就是力量。 慈悲偉大的佛陀！請您給他們福佑，　讓他們身心的創傷趕快轉危為安；　讓他們悲痛的情緒得到轉苦為樂。請求您讓他們明白，　唯有振作精神，重整家園，　才能讓亡者得到最大的安慰，　才能讓自己得到最後的成功。 我們更祈求，　這次的災情不要再擴大，　類似的禍害不要再發生。更祈求您加被所有的民眾，讓大家都知道　一定要在平時做好防範工作，讓大家都體會　必須要互助合作，居安思危。 慈悲偉大的佛陀！請求您接受我至誠的祈願，請求您接受我至誠的祈願。 A Prayer for Victims of the 2025 Myanmar EarthquakeBy Venerable Master Hsing YunFounding Master of Fo Guang Shan At midday on March 28th,a powerful earthquake struck the regions of Myanmar and Thailand.
