*RECITATIONS OF BUDDHIST SUTRAS CAN ELIMINATE 8 BILLIONS OF LIFE AND DEATH CATASTROPHES*

If you are constantly performing recitations throughout your life, you will be able to eliminate eight billions of life and death catastrophes. The recitations is not limited to just chanting ‘Amitabha’; it also includes recitations of sutras and mantras. When one hears the numeric quantifier –‘billion’, does it appear to be plentiful? In other words, a person who spends all his life performing recitations of scriptures will be able to dispel many calamities. Do you think disasters and difficulties will befall upon one who recites scriptures throughout his life? In the past, the nuns and monks who renounced their commoners’ lifestyle at a very young age and they did their recitations in the temples all their lives, did they encounter any calamity in the temples? Just take a look at how much sufferings and calamities we have to endure in the Human Realm. Therefore, Dharma is indubitable. Although you may have committed many bad deeds in your past lives, however, if you are able to offer your prayers and perform recitations and repent sincerely like the monks and nuns; your grievous sins will gradually be dispelled. For example, to those young Buddhist friends from the Secretariat Department; if they had committed many bad deeds in their past lives; be it in lifestyles, careers or family lives, and if they begin to perform recitations and repentances as well as amassing merits in the Guan Yin Hall daily now, what calamities would befall them? This is how many of the impending disasters are being resolved.

(Master Jun Hong Lu’s call-in radio program)

*REASON FOR HAVING TOO MUCH DISTRACTING THOUGHTS DURING RECITATION*

Caller: When carrying out certain tasks, why is that we often feel particularly anxious, as though we wish to accomplish several tasks at once? Even our recitations are performed hastily and our minds are perpetually thinking of other things. Master, is this due to the greed in us?

Master Jun Hong Lu: Those who tend to fail in performing good recitations have too much distracting thoughts and they tend to take this human world too seriously. On the contrary, those who are truly able to transcend worldliness, are able to let go of everything in this human world as they are indifferent to it all. These are the people who will cultivate well.

Caller: Alright. Thank you Master for answering my question.

*WHAT DO WE AS BUDDHIST PRACTITIONERS NEED?*

If you are an eagle, you have to soar in the sky even if there is no one to applause for you;

If you are a grass, you have to grow even if there is no one to love you;

If you are a flower in the deep mountain, you have to bloom even if there is no one to appreciate you;

If you are a Buddhist practitioner, you have to attain Nirvana in this lifetime even if there is no one to encourage you!
