Words of Wisdom | Excuses

Posted Posted in Words of Wisdom

It harms you and leaves your conscience with no place to stay. 任何一个人找理由,就是不想改,找理由就是在破坏自己的本性,伤害自己,让良心找不到地方。 – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 2 ,

What is true is forever true and what is false is forever false. We cultivate sincerely for the benefit of ourselves, not for others. Even the Bodhisattva is unable to save a person with a defiled heart. 真的永远是真的,假的永远是假的。真心修,不为别人而修。肮脏的心灵,菩萨也救不了。 – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 2
