BE PREPARED IN ADVANCE FOR WINTER SOLSTICE

Caller: Winter Solstice is fast approaching and it’s just a month away. Master has explained before that the Yin (negative) energy will be rampant during this period and hence, we should accumulate more Little Houses in times of need, such as when we dream of a deceased person. Master, does Bodhisattva have any special advice for us this year?

Master Jun Hong Lu: In this regard, there is nothing from the Bodhisattva, but I do have some advice to offer.

Caller: Please go ahead Master. What should we look out for?

Master Jun Hong Lu: When we ask someone to be ‘on a lookout’, we are essentially advising him to pay close attention to something in advance by being mindful. Just like you now, you are aware of the upcoming Winter Solstice, a period when many would fall ill or experience bad luck.

Why is that so? This is because spirits from the Underworld will be released to the human realm. During this period, your primary awareness should be those who have passed on and were once related to you in some way or the other, including your close or distant relatives or even your neighbours. They would be roaming about in the human realm during Winter Solstice, which is one of the solar terms.
