PRACTISE FILIAL PIETY BY LOVING OUR MASTER AS WELL AS PARENTS
Caller: I adore you, Master. I feel my adoration for you has surpassed what I have for my parents. Is this a sign of my lack of filial piety?
Master Jun Hong Lu: What’s so unfilial about it? After all, I’m your teacher, providing all of you with guidance. You must love your parents too because they are the ones who raise you. So, is there a difference between the love for one’s teachers and parents?
There is no difference, right? When we were little, we loved our form teacher, and by doing so, does it mean that we didn’t love our parents? We still loved them the same, didn’t we?
As your Master, I’m teaching all of you the principles of life and the Buddhist teachings to help you avert life setbacks, troubles and vexations. On the other hand, your parents play the role of raising all of you. We have contributed to your life in different ways. Hence, you must love all, don’t you think?
Caller: I see. Yes.
