HAVING DEDICATED HIS LIFE FOR SENTIENT BEINGS, THE BUDDHA REMAINS FONDLY REMEMBERED TILL THIS DAY
Master Jun Hong Lu: Bear in mind that we should never live for ourselves, instead, we should live for sentient beings. Many people are selfish all their lives, and only to fade into oblivion upon their demise.
On the flip side, there are those who devote their lives in the service of others and for that they will always be fondly remembered.
What kind of a person do you exactly want to be?
Take a look at the Lord Buddha. Despite having entered nirvana some 2,500 years ago, yet till this day, the Buddha remains fondly remembered by everyone around the world.
Conversely, there are those who have committed a lifetime of evil and for generations to come, they will be loathed. This underscores the importance of putting in the effort in your Buddhist practice by cultivating positivity. Positive energy is when you help others and, when you are able to attain liberation, you are said to have all-surpassing energy.
As your Master, I am trying to help you surpass your own self such that you can rise above your attachment to the form of self, the form of others, the form of beings and the concept of a lifespan.
