*COMPASSION IS THE ESSENCE OF FENG SHUI (风水)*

Master Jun Hong Lu: We need to understand that our heart is “feng” (风 - wind) and our luck is “shui” (水 - water).

One who is able to accord with conditions is said to have “feng” (风) while one who cherishes good fortune is said to have “shui” (水).

The traditional Chinese saying goes, “shui” (水) represents one’s wealth luck, while “feng” (风) represents one’s compassion.

Hence, a compassionate person is capable of “calling the wind and summoning the rain”.

*HOW TO INSTANTLY REVERSE ONE’S STATE OF MIND TO AVOID BEING AFFECTED BY NEGATIVE EMOTIONS?*

Caller: Master Lu, when we are confronted with unhappy events or obstacles in life, how do we reverse our state of mind instantly and let go of the past? Can you please advise us?

Master Jun Hong Lu: That requires Wisdom.

Caller: Can you elaborate?

Master Jun Hong Lu: I myself am able to do so. When I’m very upset, I can laugh within seconds and get over it immediately. Why is it so? Because I know that even if I am a little bit unhappy now, I am doing it for the sake of all sentient beings and not for myself. Once I have given them a piece of my mind for their sake, I would feel that the matter has been resolved. I would not then continue to allow myself to be angry, sad or suffer because of others’ wrongdoings.

Caller: I see. Master Lu, I know that you are able to change your emotional state very quickly, but how do we achieve the same?

Master Jun Hong Lu: Through practice. Always remember these words of advice: When you get scolded by someone and feel angry, for instance, immediately remind yourself, “I’m a Dharma practitioner, why should I be angry?” This is the first pointer. Second, “Hey, they are committing a sin, I shall not follow suit”. Third, “I’m not angry, so you can’t do anything to me!” Keep these three pointers in mind. You will cool down immediately by recalling these pointers whenever your anger is triggered.

*CUT DOWN ON OUR WORLDLY DESIRES*

In truth, all the happiness in this world stems from human beings’ desires. The pleasure of eating stems from our desire to consume food, the pleasure of wealth and fame stems from our greed; our quest for sexual intimacy stems from our sexual desire, the pleasure derived from sleeping and laziness also stems from a type of desire, that is the desire for enjoyment. As such, in this human realm, beware! The happiness you experience today could become the foundation for your slackness in your cultivation tomorrow!

Why the practice of extreme asceticism? It is to allow us to be enlightened, as all things in this world are impermanent. They are all worldly desires. It is through cutting down these worldly pleasures that we are able to experience the “real” happiness within. Happiness within is something you sense on a spiritual level.

*HOW TO OVERCOME STRESS ASSOCIATED WITH CULTIVATION*

Caller: A friend of mine in my neighbourhood used to be a fellow practitioner but had given up in the end. According to her, though she had benefited a lot from the practice, she felt that doing daily recitation and Little Houses had taken up too much of her time. On top of that, she still had to take care of her children. As such, she felt very stressed out. I asked her if she had experienced positive changes in her life brought about by the practice and she was quite certain she did. What advice shall I offer her?

Master Jun Hong Lu: It’s very simple. Do the monks get stressed out by performing recitations day in and day out? No pain, no gain. A person who refuses to study hard will end up learning nothing and working in low-skilled jobs. Without diligent cultivation, how are you going to succeed? How can she possibly change her life if she thinks that doing a little chanting gives rise to pressure? It would be too late when she starts regretting on her deathbed one day, praying to the Bodhisattva that she would recite scriptures. There’s nothing I can say about your friend. It can be attributed to lack of conditions, her laziness and weakness.

Caller: Understood.

*HOW TO INVOKE THE ASSISTANCE OF GUAN YIN BODHISATTVA*

Master Jun Hong Lu: Let me share with you, Guan Yin Bodhisattva will make her presence at 8 o’clock in the morning. No matter what issues you are facing in life, you must insist on offering incense at 8 am and pray to Guan Yin Bodhisattva with the utmost earnestness: “Guan Yin Bodhisattva, please save me! Guan Yin Bodhisattva, please save me!”. When the Bodhisattva sheds tears for you, you will receive her blessings. Do you understand?

*HOW TO DEAL WITH PEOPLE WHO HAVE AFFINITY WITH THE DHARMA BUT ARE NOT DILIGENT*

Caller: Master Lu, last week, you mentioned that people who have affinity with the Dharma may not have the diligence to cultivate. In the course of helping other people, sometimes, we come across people who have very special affinity with the Dharma, but at the same time, they are not eager to pursue further. How can we encourage them to forge ahead?

Master Jun Hong Lu: It is very simple. Inspire his power of understanding. Despite this, if he is not inspired, then it means it is not time yet. And he is considered as a sentient being who lacks affinity. We cannot help people with no affinity. Thus, when you meet people who are haughty and arrogant who ignored your presence, do not pursue any further with them. However, it does not mean that people who lack affinity with the Dharma shall remain as such forever. At certain point of time when they suffer from setbacks in life, realisation may set in, and they may develop affinity with the Dharma again.
