CEASE OUR WORLDLY LINE OF THOUGHT

Master Jun Hong Lu: We must cease our worldly mindset. As Buddhist practitioners, we have to eliminate this human’s line of thought in us. What is “worldly line of thought”? It refers to the tendency to perceive falsehoods as the truth.

As such, when we learn and practise Buddhism, it is crucial to understand the Buddhist teachings.

Today, if you perceive what is false as true, you would think that your life is coming to an end and you are going to die.

Aren’t you allowing falsehood to cloud your eyes? Did you know there are so many cancer survivors out there? How did they make it?

A fallacy can be perceived as true. You would not perceive it as the “truth” if you understand it based on the truth.
