LEARN TO WALK THE MIDDLE PATH; ATTACHMENTS WILL ONLY BRING HARM UPON ONESELF

Caller: Hi Master, could you please give me some advice? I feel honoured to be able to get through your line today. I really miss you, Master.

Master Jun Hong Lu: You must not think too much as you can’t afford a depression relapse. You have had bouts of depression in the past and you must not let it recur. Do you understand?

Caller: Yes, I do, Master.

Master Jun Hong Lu: There is a metaphor that goes, “Ants on the ground are beyond your sight from a high vantage point, but the moment you squat down, they all appear right before you in large quantity”.

There is a beginning and an end to everything in this world. Tomorrow will come to mark a new beginning. Things are constantly evolving as nothing is permanent in nature. Today may seem to be a bad day but it might turn out to be a good one. On the flip side, a good day may end up being a bad one. As such, it is important to learn to take the middle path in life. Do you understand me?

Caller: Yes, Master. I will mend my ways. In addition, I also have a strong sense of attachment.

Master Jun Hong Lu: Attachment can only bring affliction upon oneself. It has no benefit whatsoever.

Caller: Thank you, Master.
