COMPASSION IS THE GOLDEN KEY THAT UNLOCKS ALL ‘DOORS’
Master Jun Hong Lu: At the spiritual level, one must cultivate compassion, as it is the golden key that unlocks all ‘doors’. Whenever you find yourself reluctant to adopt a vegetarian diet, try viewing animals through the lens of compassion – image the animal parts you consume are the hands of the children, and that the tin of sardines resembles a coffin. When compassion arises within you, your craving for freshly-killed animals and your desire for meat-based food will diminish.
Where does a compassionate heart come from? It’s through the recitation of the Great Compassion Mantra and the Heart Sutra.
