Light up everyone's Bodhi Heart Lamp

The following is shared by one of the lucky people:

"Abo's Words - Excerpts from Live Discourses": "During the era of era change, natural disasters, earth changes, wars, and various plagues will continue to occur. Everyone should work hard to cultivate."

"The formation and survival of the universe, natural disasters and changes, birth, old age, sickness and death are all normal in life. You must be mentally prepared at all times. It is best to keep a flashlight by your side, and don't be empty of water and food."

The world has been in turmoil recently. I am planning a series of courses for family emergency shelters, hoping to do my best to help more destined beings to prepare. In my first class in this series, there was a power outage across Taiwan and the beginning of the Russian-Ukrainian war. So when I notified the parents on the study sheet to implement the family emergency shelter package, I also got the approval of many tutors. I felt that this course was really practical. Some tutors took the file with me and asked their children to prepare a copy. .

Recently, I have been looking at the photos of the students’ homework of emergency evacuation kits, which is actually quite touching, because most of the students really thought about evacuation plans, discussed with their families, and actually prepared evacuation kits, and even took stock of the long-term water and power outages. Civilian materials. In the middle of this month, there were many earthquakes, so I really continued to see what students wrote: "Although I think this homework is very troublesome, but taking this opportunity to prepare the family evacuation kit, I feel more secure in my heart. I think it may be this kind of teaching content, which can really benefit all sentient beings, enhance everyone’s awareness of crisis, think that impermanence can happen at any time, and improve my mentality, so let me accumulate blessings and show a piece of “The Sixth Patriarch Altar” With the great karma of the 600 volumes of the Classics, there is a feeling in my heart that I can finally make up for my previous guilt.

Of course, not everyone is satisfied with this course, and some students feel that it is too much of a fuss. Each class has a few rude students who do not turn in their homework no matter how they are urged. I was wronged; there were also tragic incidents that caused my rage and out of control because of the whole class of students who didn’t take it seriously; there were also illegal incidents in which a few classmates took pictures on the Internet and tried to deceive them to get a high score. But this is why I like teaching. In the process of continuous planning, practice, and inspection, I have collided with my blind spots, and then tried my best to adjust and improve, transforming into a more mature and harmonious mentality, and developing a better able to implement the educational concept. Matching practices.

"Abo's Words - Excerpts from the Live Talk": "Everything must be prepared. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are far-sighted, and many things have been arranged. In order to give sentient beings a chance to improve, God will spread the message through different people. The whole world knows; therefore, people must act according to the principles of heaven, and if all living beings do not believe in cause and effect, and do not act according to the principles of heaven, disasters will come.”

I know that the evacuation kit is only a material preparation. The real preparation is to make all sentient beings believe in cause and effect, and the corruption of the human heart is the root cause of all kinds of disasters. At the teaching site, if students deliberately deceive or lack communication, it is the deviation of their xinxing and degeneration, and relevant punishments must be taken so that students can learn lessons and change their deviant behaviors. What about in the Saha world? If sentient beings continue to be deviated and depraved, what corrective measures will God arrange? That's not just a warning from the school rules, but to show all kinds of natural and man-made disasters, forcing human beings to reflect and think. Good and evil are rewarded, the law of heaven is clear, and behind all the chaos is the fabrication of cause and effect.

Looking around the world, earthquakes, fires, wind disasters, and floods continue to occur all over the world. These unpredictable disasters can destroy hard-earned homes and precious lives in an instant, causing people to feel hesitant and fearful. How can we avoid these dreadful sufferings? Only by restoring human nature and morality and returning to the kind-hearted side of people can we benefit society and avoid disasters.

There is both evil and good in people's hearts. When technology progresses and material life is more enjoyable, people also discard the good in their hearts more thoroughly. All sentient beings are like lost lambs who need to be led to the right path and need to be re-educated. The Buddha is a great educator. The Buddha appeared in the world to educate and transform all beings. I hope that all beings can be like him and understand that birth, aging, sickness and death are normal, and that all material enjoyments in the world are temporary possessions, nothing is eternal, and everything is false. , phantom and phantom.

The Buddha radiated love and wisdom to the universe and the human world, and taught all beings to correct their minds, practice morality, concentration and wisdom, and extinguish greed, hatred, and delusion. However, all sentient beings have the disease of ignorance. This disease has a long history. These heart diseases and habitual qi are not easy to get rid of. Therefore, some people say: "It is easy to change the habit, but it is difficult to get rid of the habit." Dharma medicine, deeply root the teachings and precepts in the heart, deeply restrain oneself, stay away from lust, and cut off tainted love. When there is less desire, the mind will be calm, and when the mind is calm, the truth can be understood; when the mind is not calm, countless troubles will arise.

Cultivation must be done with concentration of mind, like a tank of water, as long as you don't move it, the dirt will naturally settle at the bottom of the tank, and the water surface will be as clear as a mirror. The minds of all living beings are like the surface of a lake that is calm without waves; the surface of the lake seems calm and without waves, but in reality, the undercurrents are surging and delusions are flying. As long as the breeze blows on the surface of the lake, there is only a slight disturbance in the realm. At this time, the peaceful heart lake cannot withstand the distraction of a single thought, and the heart lake is immediately troubled by fluctuations.

Life is impermanent, the world is unpredictable, and how many things will change in the future cannot be predicted, but we can find our own lack of personality and lack of concentration from the practice of life. Correct mistakes, make corrections and make good ones, get tempered and reminded from mistakes, realize the true meaning of life, and then obtain the maturity and perfection of wisdom. Everyone has kindness in their hearts, awakening the kindness in the hearts of the world, lighting up everyone's Bodhicitta lamp, from the first lamp to hundreds of thousands of lamps. Bodhicitta lamps transmit points to each other, and the light is naturally endless! Namo Great Vow Earth Store Bodhisattva!
