一貫道傳遞超生了死的道，傳播先得後修的佳音，信奉萬靈之主宰，推廣儒家的率性，道家的無為，佛家的無我，恢復心靈的自在，化短暫為永恆。一貫道起源於中國，肩負著六千多年的道統傳承，1886年根據祖師王覺一的三極一貫的理念，正式以一貫道的名稱來傳道，同時在【論語】之中，子曰：「吾道一以貫之。」此一貫兩字也呼應一貫道的由來，提倡由盡人道而達天道的一貫理念，1930年由張天然師尊、孫慧明師母同領天命，大開普傳，現已傳遍世界各地。1987年中華民國政府立案，1996年於美國依法成立一貫道世界總會，2010年於中華人民共和國與官方一同推動百孝經相關的文化活動。


Yiguandao transmits the Tao of transcendence of life and death, conveys the good news of first attaining and then cultivating, believes in The Master of All Souls, promotes the Confucian conformity to True Nature, the Taoist inaction and the Buddhist selflessness, revives the freedom of the soul, and transforms the transience into the eternity. Originating in China, Yiguandao shoulders more than 6,000 years of Tao transmission tradition. In 1886, based upon the concept of Three Poles of Pervating One by Patriarch Wang Jueyi, Tao was officially preached under the name of Yiguandao. Also in the Confucius Analects, Confucius said, "My Tao is the One that pervades all.” These two words, One and pervade (Yi and Guan in Chinese) are the origin of the terminology of Yiguandao, advocating the consistent concept of reaching the Heavenly Tao by doing all in line with humanity. In 1930, Patriarch Zhang Tianran and Matriarch Sun Huiming received the Mandate of Heaven together. Since then, the great tao transmission has spread all over the world. In 1987, Yiguandao was officially and legally registered by the Government of the Republic of China. In 1996, the World I-Kuan Tao (Yiguandao) Headquarters was officially and legally registered in the United States of America. In 2010, in the People’s Republic of China, Yiguandao in a joint effort with the government promoted various cultural activities related to the Classic of Hundred Xiao.


「世尊！善男子、善女人，發阿耨多羅三藐三菩提心，云何應住？云何降伏其心？」佛言：「善哉！善哉！須菩提！如汝所說，如來善護念諸菩薩，善付囑諸菩薩。汝今諦聽，當為汝說。善男子、善女人，發阿耨多羅三藐三菩提心，應如是住，如是降伏其心。」

World Honored One, when virtuous men and women generate the mind of Anuttara Samyak Sambodhi, how should they dwell their Bodhi mind and how should they quell their deluded mind? The Buddha said, “Very well! Very well! Subhuti, as you’ve said, the Tathagata guards the thoughts of Bodhisattvas so well and instructs Bodhisattvas so well. Now listen earnestly as I will tell you. The virtuous men and women, who are going to generate the mind of Anuttara Samyak Sambodhi, should thus … dwell, and should thus … quell their mind.
