DO NOT LIVE BY MERE LUCK
Master Jun Hong Lu: The journey of life is impermanent, and so is life and death. A person should not live by mere luck. It is often mentioned in Buddhist scriptures, “there are tens of thousands of calamities”. One would expect insurmountable calamities in a lifetime. Only a person who performs acts of kindness and accumulates merits are able to evade these adversities. As indicated in traditional Chinese culture, “a single act of kindness is able to eliminate hundreds of calamities”.
