PRACTISING MODERATION IN THE NINE ASPECTS OF LIFE
Master Jun Hong Lu:
Do not covet personal gains excessively. Greed is like a dry well in the desert, capable of absorbing all rainwater but will never produce a single drop of water for the convenience of others.
Therefore, Buddhist practitioners should bear in mind that “I should neither indulge in intoxicants, lust, wealth and anger nor should I engage myself in casual love affair”.
Be free from all desires, worries and attachments, maintain a contented mind and let nature take its course. Only then can we achieve the true purpose of learning Buddhism and recover our original state of the Buddha-nature.
