Contemplation: Reach the Heart

After reviewing the guidelines for practice, take the following as your object of contemplation:
To obtain human life is difficult in the extreme;
To meet a Buddha in this world is also difficult;
It is difficult, too, for a person to attain faith and wisdom.
Once you have heard the Dharma, strive to reach its heart.
The Three Pure Land Sutras (the Larger Sutra), p. 41
