THE EMERGENCE OF ALL KINDS OF WORRIES IN THIS WORLD ARE OPPORTUNITIES GIVEN TO US TO DISCOVER OUR SHORTCOMINGS
Master Jun Hong Lu: The fame, status and wealth owned by a person are just temporary and will never bring us eternal happiness; conversely, these will create worries for us. Many people asked me: “Master Lu, what is the source of vexation?” Let me tell you; you are the source of vexation!
You are being angry because you are intolerant;
You are being depressed because you lack sunshine in the heart;
You are worried because you lack wisdom;
You are grieved because you lack inner strength;
You are resentful because you lack compassion;
You are jealous because you are daunted by an inferiority complex.
Every vexation is caused by ourselves.
You must remember this: The rising of all kinds of worries are opportunities for us to discover our shortcomings.
