(An Excerpt)
BE WORTHY OF YOUR SPIRITUAL AND PHYSICAL LIVES
Master Jun Hong Lu: You have to stand on your own feet to become awaken spiritually and observe the precepts. Only when you do so, you are worthy of both your spiritual and physical lives.
For example, if the doctor tells you that you are diagnosed with lung cancer, would you quit smoking? Some people have liver problems, but are they determined enough to quit drinking? How can one be worthy of one’s physical body, conscience and inherent nature if he is not even observing the precepts?
If you are someone with a family, you will be letting your children and spouse down. As Buddhist practitioners, you are abusing your Yin-Yang and the Five Elements.
The balance of the Yin-Yang and the Five Elements is to help regulate your well-being. However, if the balance is wilfully disrupted, your body will fail to achieve a state of wellness that it is supposed to. As a result, your empirical body is bound to suffer a lot of trials and tribulations in this human realm.
