DO NOT LET YOUR SURROUNDINGS FLUTTER YOUR STATE OF MIND
Master Jun Hong Lu: A person needs to have the Buddha nature that is fundamentally pure. As the Buddha often said, “The mind remains unmoved despite external changes”.
No matter what changes have taken place around you, your mind remains unperturbed. Don’t let the surroundings flutter your state of mind.
The ultimate pure Buddha nature is the Amala-consciousness which is also the ninth consciousness. This is your conscience and your innate nature. Regardless of what happens, your mind remains unmoved.
Once you have Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in your heart, you won’t conceive any unwholesome thoughts. This way, you will not be trapped in the six realms of rebirth.
