THE SPIRIT OF THE BUDDHA WILL LONG ENDURE IN THIS WORLD
Master Jun Hong Lu: Today is the Laba Festival (the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month) and also Shakyamuni Buddha’s Enlightenment Day. Why are there still five to six hundred million people in this world who revere the Buddha?
Hasn’t the Buddha left this world? No, he has not. In fact, He is in heaven, living in perpetuity.
And yet, why are there people who are living like a dead person? How do we ensure that our spirits will live on in eternity in this world? This is the crux of Buddha Dharma that is truly worthy of delving into.
