WHY IS IT NECESSARY TO REPEAT OUR PRAYER REQUEST?
Caller: Master Lu, when praying for something, we just have to say it once and Bodhisattva will know. If so, why do we have to repeat our prayer to Bodhisattva?
Master Jun Hong Lu: Let me ask you a question. Regardless of what you are doing, don’t you think it’s helpful to have more frequent communication as people tend to forget?
Caller: Indeed.
Master Jun Hong Lu: Bodhisattva will never forget, however, if you are someone with heavy negative karma, Bodhisattva may not be able to hear you. Thus, if you repeat yourself a couple more times, Bodhisattva may be able to hear your prayers. For example, it’s common to hear people repeat themselves while on walkie-talkie, “Please respond, please respond ….” When the opposite party can’t hear you, don’t you have to repeat a few times?
