【認識佛陀教育 | 淨空老法師】
佛說法非常活潑,是因人施教,沒有定法。無論佛怎麼說法,都離不開大圓滿。換句話說,全是從自性中流露出來,因此法門是真正平等。在佛門中,無論修學任何法門,都是讚歎這個法門是第一。說這個法門第一,並不顯示其他法門就是第二。諸位一定要弄清楚這點,才不致於犯過失。犯什麼過失呢?自讚毀他。這就犯了大戒,是錯誤的。

To Understand Buddhism(Venerable Master Chin Kung)
Buddha Shakyamuni used innumerable methods to correspond with the level of attainment of his listeners. However, regardless of the particular method, he never deviated from the Great Perfection. In other words, all his teachings arose from the self-nature. Consequently, all methods are equal. All Buddhas, all Bodhisattvas and all sutras are equal in nature. Whichever method is chosen it is praised as number one. However, saying that a certain method is number one does not mean that the others are less important. If we forget this, then we commit a serious offense. What offense? Praising oneself and belittling others.
