Learn to give.  When we let others gain first, then we can truly benefit. 学佛人要学会舍， 先要让别人得， 你才能真正的有所得。     – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1  

Being safe and well is a blessing. Being virtuous leads to longevity. Being content is a mark of prosperity. Letting nature take its course is noble. 平安是福， 功德是寿， 知足是富， 随缘是贵。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1      

A person who keeps their desire to a minimum and reaches maximum rationality is a sage. A sage always thinks about how they can benefit and help others. 把自己的欲望降到最低， 把自己的理性放在最高点就是圣人。每天想着付出想着帮助别人的人 就是圣人。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1        

There will be no discontentment in life if we see that all faults are ours and never others. 我们要永远觉得别人是对的、自己是错的，就会一生无怨。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1      

Many people, throughout their lives, love themselves more than anyone else. The more we love only ourselves, the lonelier we become. The more we love other sentient beings, the more blissful we become.   人的一生就是自私的爱自己。爱自己会使自己越来越孤独， 爱众生会使自己越来越幸福。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1      

If we want to change others, we should first change ourselves. Buddhism recognises the existence of destiny, and teaches us how to change our destiny. 要改变别人首先要改变自己， 佛法承认命运，从而才让人们改变命运。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1  

The first things we should learn as a Buddhist practitioner are: to never feel as if we are being unfairly treated or wronged, never feel sad, and never get frustrated or worried. This is because everything in life is impermanent, it ebbs and flows in the blink of an eye. When we see the truth […]

A virtuous person corrects their mistakes, whereas a petty person covers up their flaws. Those who correct their mistakes will become enlightened; those who cover up flaws will get lost. It is always better to correct our mistakes than to cover them up. 君子改過，小人飾非。 改過的人會開悟，飾非的人會迷誤， 永遠要懂得改過自己的缺點 比掩蓋自己的錯誤要好。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of […]

Transforming sentient beings is very difficult, that is why we do it. The opportunity to encounter the Buddhas teachings is very rare, that is why we cherish it. We strive to elevate the spirituality of sentient beings to liberate them from the cycle of rebirth. We strive to transform their destinies so that they can […]

Although it is difficult for a novice practitioner to attain Buddhahood, their persistence in practising Buddhism will get them closer to the goal. Their diligence in practising Buddhism will eventually make them a real Buddha! 刚学佛，想成佛——难。坚持学佛，想成佛——近佛。精进学佛，想成佛——真佛！   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1        

These are the nemeses of our spiritual cultivation: Worries they narrow our perspectives; Resentments they provoke hostility; Griefs they obstruct our advancement; Angerit invites enemies. 忧则天地皆窄， 怨则到处为仇， 哀则束缚自己， 怒则大敌当头， 此乃心灵大敌 。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1  

“A single flower does not make spring, yet one hundred flowers in full blossom bring spring to the garden.” We should not only engage in self-practice, but also extensively transform other sentient beings. Be one of the hands and eyes of Guan Yin Bodhisattva to liberate people from suffering. Only when we have great compassion […]

When we succeed, we must not forget our past. When we fail, we must remember there is still tomorrow. When the path leads to nowhere, we can always take another path. We can make a diversion. 成功时不要忘记自己的过去， 失败时也不要忘记我们还有未来， 一条路走不通，我们还会走第二条路， 我们还能拐弯。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1      

Our state of mind determines our destiny. We must approach people with compassion, forgiveness and understanding. If we refuse to forgive, we will end up hurting ourselves. 心态决定人生，心灵要有慈悲心， 要有宽恕心，要能够理解他人。不能够原谅他人的人， 最后伤害的一定是自己。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1  

With the right mindset, you let the Buddha be your guide. With a deviant mindset, you let demons become your guide. The enlightened recognise their true nature, whereas the lost suffer the endless cycle of rebirth. Only when you understand your mind can you see the intrinsic nature. Only when you become enlightened will you […]

The wise always cherish their blessings. The more they cherish their blessings, the wiser they become.  Bodhisattvas will always be by their side! 惜福者，智者。越来越珍惜福分的人，越来越有智慧； 越来越有智慧的人，菩萨常伴在身边！   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1  

Learn to let nature take its course; let all things in life come and go naturally. In this way, we can be free from afflictions. Prajna is the wisdom attained with the mind that is free from ignorance. 一个人要学会自然，一切都自然来自然去，就能断烦恼。破无明的智慧，就是般若。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1  

Those who cannot stop gossiping about others are already entangled in gossip. They will become the subject of gossip and not get rid of it. 一个人如果整天讲是是非非， 实际上他自身已经被是非所缠绕， 离不开是非。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1  

What we have today is most precious. The past is already gone and the future is yet to come. Therefore, we must seize the present moment, leave the past behind, and look forward to the future. Only then will our hearts be like the ocean vast and boundless. 我们现在拥有的，才是最值得我们珍惜的东西，过去的早已经过去，而未来的还没有得到，所以我们要拥有现在、忘记过去、 展望未来，心才会像大海般的宽广无边。   – Master Jun Hong […]

Life is like a journey on a train that will reach its destination soon. It is short and bitter. Hence, we must contemplate our bodies as impure and our thoughts as impermanent. 要明白，人生就像坐火车， 很快就会到终点，生命短暂，人生很苦。要 “观身不净，观心无常”。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1          

When life gets difficult, keep in mind that we are experiencing the amount of suffering we were destined to go through, therefore transforming our karma for a better future. 人在吃苦的时候， 就是在消孽障，转换业力。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1  

As Buddhist practitioners, we need to purify our hearts and reduce our desires. The more desires we have, the less likely we are to ever satisfy all our desires. We should learn to be content with what we have, to change ourselves through practising Buddhism, and to learn to ask for nothing. 学佛人要清心寡欲，一个人欲望越多 越不能满足自己的欲望。我们要乐天知命，要透过学佛来改变自己，要学会无所求。   […]

Today’s effort will lead us to the other shore of enlightenment in times to come. 今天努力了，才有未来的到达彼岸。   Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 4

Those who cannot see into their future will not be able to make the most of today. Whether you will succeed in the future depends on today. 看不到将来就把握不好今天， 验证未来的成功要靠今天。   Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 4

Let spiritual life begin from today and kindness begin from this very moment. 慧命从今天开始，善良从现在开始。   Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 4

Not being reasonable is a flaw, while insisting on reasoning alone makes us miss the forest for the trees. 人不讲理是个大缺点， 人硬讲理是个大盲点。   – Master Jun Hong Lu, Words of Wisdom Volume 1
