THOSE WITH SYMPTOMS OF DEPRESSION MUST PERFORM RECITATION AND LEARN TO RELAX
Master Jun Hong Lu: If your mood is easily affected when you hear negative comments from others, you are already suffering from depression. In this case, you must perform daily recitation including Little Houses, release captive lives and make great vows. If you are constantly reminded of your past bad experiences and you wallow in those memories upon hearing stories of others, you are at an early stage of depression. This calls for you to recite the Buddhist scriptures, get over the matter and learn to relax.
