传说在久远的幽冥界,正值地藏王菩萨生辰之际,十殿阎君和其他阴间的神明,都来合掌向她老人家参拜祝贺。地藏王菩萨大发慈悲地说: “我凭着慈悲的愿力,要来救渡此道的众生,奈何世间的人,行善的太少,而做恶的多. 这个去了, 那个有来, 救也救不过来,还需一方法,既能息止地狱的业因,又能使阴间的众生,藉著子孙後代所作功德的荫泽,很快得到超升。
当时,十殿阎君,恭敬合掌,同声回答说:考查世人善少恶多的原因,不外乎邪恶二念。
此人,自私为己,欺昧良心,教人盗窃、邪淫,或否认因果, 无论生前做甚恶果,认为死后人还是成人,兽还是成兽,没有丝毫的约束。所以毫无顾忌,世世行恶。
现将地狱之道,种种恶处,借著有德行之人,引导他进入阴间,作实地的观察。记载下来,完成《宝钞》一书;回到阳问,广泛传播,普遍地劝化世人。
假如有知道过错,诚心忏侮,不再犯,力行向善的人,准予从宽量罪、减少刑罚,或功过相抵,免予罪刑。
假如有兼善天下,推广教化的人,所有已犯恶行,更优渥地予以衡量减罪,功过相抵,免予罪刑:若仍余有善功,自然很快地获得福报。
若进一步能皈依、恭敬三宝,精进勤劳地修持,则每日二十四小时中,诸佛菩萨必慈加护佑关心,一切吉神亦必守护、照顾。
欲知后事如何,且听下回分解。
