A DROP OF WATER
Master Jun Hong Lu: Someone asked Lord Buddha, “As human beings, how do we prevent our single drop of water from ever drying up, especially when it tends to evaporate even more rapidly under the sun”. Lord Buddha replied, “To prevent this drop of water from drying up, we will have to put it into the river, lake or sea”. Similarly, when we are able to unite our heart with those of sentient beings, we are able to rise above the many obstacles in life and resolve its many grievances.
