黄慧音第五十二张佛乐专辑
≪ 地藏菩萨本愿经 ≫
用了两年时间完成
2017年12月17日正式发行
“从开始认识经文每一品的内容到两万余字读音仔细的确认,旋律配合行行字句的导向,给编曲的意境填色,声调的质感和意念的传达,再到录音混音校对封套设计等工作,无一不在“愿”字的提醒和推动下完成。
这过程经历了突然来袭的病痛和无常的挑战,似乎在考验我的耐力。今天一切都过去了,母盘完成后一品复一品的唱诵通过耳机陪伴我重新观看≪地藏经≫,发现菩萨精神的意义,就是要具备不退转的责任感和无私付出去完成当下每一件事,因和果更会因善缘而不断改变。
专辑制作过程让我看到了音乐无止尽的可能性,而经文让我感受到愿力的无量。身为海外的华裔,或者这篇文字未能尽致的表达我的心意,但相信在我的音乐里你会听到。渺小如我希望能将这份心愿谱入宇宙救度的乐章。”

《地藏菩萨本愿经》
记载了释迦牟尼佛在忉利天宫为母亲摩耶夫人的说法。佛在经中赞扬了地藏菩萨为度众生
“地狱不空,誓不成佛,
众生度尽,方证菩提”
的宏大誓愿,并介绍了地藏菩萨在因地修行过程中的事迹,例如曾为婆罗门女、光目女时,设法救度母亲的故事。亦通过文殊菩萨、佛母摩耶夫人、定自在王菩萨、四天王、普贤菩萨、普广菩萨、大辩长者、阎罗天子、恶毒鬼王、主命鬼王、坚牢地神、观世音菩萨、虚空藏菩萨的依次提问以及地藏菩萨与释迦牟尼佛的对话,介绍了地狱及其众生的状况,解释了使亲人眷属在各种情况下脱离苦难的种种方法。释迦牟尼佛还在此经中将自己涅槃之后至弥勒成佛以前的期间,教育开化世人的任务托付于地藏菩萨。
《地藏菩萨本愿经》也记载着万物众生其生、老、病、死的过程。融合了地藏菩萨的大悲愿和诸佛菩萨的见证,叙述佛陀深入浅出的慈悲开示。对于深究佛法的修行者,可以印证因缘果报的不可思议;而初发心者而言,亦可相应契入地藏王菩萨的教化慈悲。
Lauded as the Buddhist sutra of filial piety. This sutra consists of the discourses delivered by the Buddha to his mother in the Trayastrimsha Heaven, discusses the filial practices of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva during his “causal practice,” the time when he was planting the causes for liberating sentient beings in the future, as well as the profound vows he made during previous lives: “Only after all beings have been guided to awakening will I myself attain bodhi; as long as the hells are not empty, I shall not become a Buddha”. The sutra also discusses cause and effect, the consequences of our actions, as well as the reality of suffering in the hells.
