OBSERVING THE FIVE PRECEPTS AND PERFORMING THE TEN KIND DEEDS
Master Jun Hong Lu: A person who is able to observe the Five Precepts and perform the Ten Kind Deeds is one who is relatively more accomplished in his cultivation. He will even be able to ascend to Heaven. Moreover, if he could eradicate all his bad habits, he would have transcended the mortal mind and attained the state of a sage.
Strict adherence to the Five Precepts and the Ten Kind Deeds is also an ingenious way to help us achieve liberation from the cycle of death and rebirth. Before we speak about attaining the state-of-mind of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, we need to understand that the adherence to the Five Precepts and the Ten Kind Deeds forms the basis of human integrity and spiritual cultivation.
