To change oneself is no easy task. As Buddhists, we must avoid harbouring distracting thoughts, as they will grow and multiply. Any karmic obstacles will multiply. Therefore, avoid creating even the slightest bit of negative karma. 要改变自己多么难,学佛人不能有杂念,因为它会繁殖。任何业障都会繁殖,一点恶业都不能有。 – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 2

Change is the only way of perfecting yourself. Honesty and trustworthiness is the mother of morality. It is its foundation. Never follow a teacher who lacks virtue. It is the Dharma, not some individual, that we should rely on. 一个人在世界上,改变是唯一的方法,一个人的道德是诚信,像母亲一样,那是根本。如果一个师父没有道德,别跟他学,依法不依人。 – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 2

Words of Wisdom | Ten feet away from heaven or hell

Posted Posted in Words of Wisdom

Those who endure ten years of suffering in the human realm to eliminate their negative karma are only ten feet away from heaven. Those who indulge themselves in sensual pleasures for ten years are only ten feet away from hell. 在人间吃苦消业十年, 离天上就只有十尺之遥;  在人间享乐挥霍十年, 离地狱就只有十尺之遥。 Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 4
