(Master Jun Hong Lu’s call-in radio program)
WHEN WE LOSE COUNT ON THE NUMBER OF PROSTRATIONS DONE, DO MORE, NOT LESS
Caller: When offering incense and paying respects to Bodhisattvas, we will usually perform seven prostrations at the beginning and at the end of the process. However, at times, we may be too engrossed that we lose count on the number of prostrations done. In that case, is it alright if we perform more or less?
Master Jun Hong Lu: You would rather perform more than lesser prostrations.
Caller: That means it is fine to perform more prostrations because that is what I do when I am worried that I have miscounted.
Master Jun Hong Lu: That should be the way, you may perform more prostrations. Nobody is offended by excessive politeness.
