THERE IS NO NEED TO OBSERVE TIME-GAP BETWEEN POSTINGS OF DHARMA TEACHINGS ONLINE

Caller: A fellow practitioner dreamt of Bodhisattva reminding him, “Do not send dharma teachings consecutively on social media. Leave some buffer time so that other practitioners get to read them online”. Master, could you advise as to how we should pace our postings?

Master Jun Hong Lu: That’s not true. Don’t listen to what he says. He is as if advising you to take intermittent breaks in your effort to be a good person. There’s no such thing. You must be joking! To be a good person, basically you must be relentless in performing kind deeds. Do you think the Buddha even took breaks in between His dharma-propagation quest? There were no such breaks.

Caller: Master, come to think of it such messages should first be verified by 2OR Secretariat before broadcasting them. In fact, such messages should not be disseminated at will because they can be misleading.

Master Jun Hong Lu: He has already misled others and created karmic obstacles for himself. This is why I want to organise a coaching class for everyone. There are too many ignorant people who senselessly go about disseminating messages without a clear understanding, triggering an eruption of karmic obstacles. Even so, they may still be in the dark when something untoward befalls their loved ones or when illness strikes them.

Many people lament, “Having performed so many meritorious deeds, why is it that luck is never on my side?”. They are clearly oblivious to the source of their misfortunes – reckless speech. Does it make any sense to encourage others to take intermittent breaks from their dharma propagation quest? You must be kidding!
