Hello, modern people have a poor foundation, it is generally better to cultivate the Pure Land, the Pure Land Method is the two-force method of self-reliance and the blessing of Amitabha Buddha's Buddha, and Tantra and Zen Buddhism are all dependent on self-cultivation to achieve results, so it can be seen that the Pure Land Method is the fastest way for the last generation to get out of the six paths.
The scriptures of the Pure Land Method are as follows:
1: "The Buddha Says the Sutra of Amitayus" - referred to as the "Sutra of Amitayus".
2: "The Buddha Says the Sutra of Amitayus" - referred to as the "Sutra".
3: "The Buddha Says the Amitabha Sutra" - referred to as the "Amitabha Sutra".
4: "Amitayus Sutra Upa Tisha Wish to Live" - referred to as "The Theory of Past Life".
The above is the "Three Classics and One Treatise on the Pure Land".
5: "Huayan Sutra Puxian Bodhisattva Wishes" - Wei Yuan (Wei Moshen) monks added during the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty.
6: "Lengyan Sutra Great Trend to the Bodhisattva Reciting Buddha Yuantong Chapter" - the thirteenth ancestor of the Pure Land Sect in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, Master Yinguang added.
In 1933, Master Yinguang surveyed the above-mentioned classics as the "Pure Land Five Classics and One Treatise", which served as the fundamental basis of the Pure Land sect.

All Buddhist scriptures are magic weapons, and reciting them can nourish and increase blessings.
The sutras record the content of the Buddha's teachings, not without meaning. For example, the Diamond Sutra talks about emptiness, and the Lengyan Sutra can be said to be an encyclopedia of the universe. And so on, so it's best to understand the content of the sutra before reciting it.

Chanting sutras and reciting mantras to the Buddha are all excellent.
All of the above will have great merits, as for which sutra to recite, what mantra to hold, it depends on the karma, which sutra you like or what mantra is convenient for you, this is corresponding to you, just do it.
Chanting the Buddha, a holy name of the Buddha, sensing the Buddhas of the ten directions. I often think in my heart, and over time, I will experience the mystery.

Buddhism has a saying that "chanting sutras is not as good as holding mantras, and holding mantras is not as good as chanting Buddha", which is actually not good or bad, but starts from convenience.

There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south! The purpose of studying the Dharma is to become a Buddha, and before becoming a Buddha we were now in the six realms of samsara, and we were human beings for the time being. Why don't we go out of reincarnation?
Can't become a Buddha? It's because we're so sick. Greed, hatred, ignorance, slowness, suspicion, and so on, if these "diseases" are not cured, they will not be able to get out of reincarnation, and they will not be able to become Buddhas.
Buddhism has different "prescriptions" for our different "diseases". This "prescription" is the Buddhist scriptures. There are two main types of prescriptions, one is the Pathway Method, which is to guide you to cure your illness by studying the precepts and wisdom.
This approach is too difficult for us in modern times. This is because all beings at the end of the Dharma are the "most critically ill" who are "dying." There are also three "prescriptions" that are special "prescriptions", namely "Amitayus Sutra", "Amitayus Sutra" and "Amitabha Sutra", in fact, they all say one thing, that is, they tell us that Amitabha Buddha has successfully developed for us a "elixir for the rule of all diseases", that is, the Buddha name of "Nan Wu Amitabha".
As long as we believe in the "elixir" of "eating", we will be able to immigrate to Elysium by relying on the efficacy of the "medicine", and then there will be no more diseases, and we are only one step away from becoming a Buddha.
So is it better to chant sutras or Buddha? For the vast majority of people, it is to chant the sutras first and then the Buddha. That is to say, after reading the "prescription", you will know your "illness" and understand the origin of the "medicine" of "Nam no Amitabha", so that you can be full of confidence in chanting Buddha, full of yearning for the Western Elysium, and then be able to concentrate on chanting Buddha.
Of course, there are a small number of people who do not look at the "prescription", and people who are destined to recommend it, and simply introduce the "Nan no Amitabha Buddha" to be convinced that they will honestly recite the Buddha, so that people are the root of the Pure Land Method, and they can directly chant the Buddha "take medicine", and they don't need to read the Buddhist scriptures. Therefore, according to your root machine, you can choose whether to recite the sutra first and then the Buddha, or directly recite the Buddha. Break a leg!

Reciting scriptures and reciting Buddhas must be recited, and one cannot be neglected at the expense of the other.

The Buddha is enlightened, the Buddha is an enlightened person, why do you study Buddhism? Don't recite the scriptures, but understand the scriptures, Zi said: Learn without thinking is confused.
Learn Buddhism, learn while thinking and understanding, some people can understand a heart sutra, some people can understand multiple scriptures, some people do not understand in their lives, follow fate. I'm not a Buddhist, I'm studying the Buddhist scriptures, and I'm not confused, just like I don't think it's right to "save the principles of heaven and destroy people's desires" when I read the Analects, I don't think that people who don't have God are pitiful when I read the Bible, and I don't think that people must care about anything when I read the Taoist scriptures. Buddha is the study of the mind, don't go astray.
Don't be confused, study hard.

To learn Buddhism, we must know that the purpose of becoming a Buddha is to liberate reincarnation and become a Buddha, and the purpose of becoming a Buddha is to save immeasurable sentient beings, so we have to go straight to the method of becoming a Buddha - the Pure Land Method, chanting sutras is not as good as chanting mantras, chanting mantras is not as good as chanting Buddhas, and if you want to become a Buddha, you should recite the six-character name "Nan no Amitabha Buddha".

If you are still learning Buddhism for the first time, then I still hope that you are dedicated to all aspects of interpretation. Chanting the Sutra is to choose one of the Five Pure Land Sutras that is more relevant to you. We mainly choose the Five Scriptures of the Pure Land that Yin Zu once chosen:
Kang Seng Kai's "Sutra of Amitayus", "Sutra of Amitayus", "Sutra of Amitabha", "Great Trend to the Bodhisattva Chanting Buddha Yuantong Chapter" and "Fuxian Xing Wishes".

If you have just started to study Buddhism, what sutras are good to recite when you first start learning Buddhism, you have to recite the Heart Sutra, because the Heart Sutra is very short, and every word is fine. So if you just start learning Buddhism, you can just recite the Heart Sutra, and then you can recite the Diamond Sutra and the Lengyan Sutra. Read the Heart Sutra first, and even memorize it, before reading the following scriptures.
