An Excerpt from Master Jun Hong Lu's
Public Talk in Penang, Malaysia
August 14, 2016
*FEWER DESIRES LEAD TO GREATER CONTENTMENT*
If we live under the shadow of desire and die of desire, you will end up becoming a slave of desires in your next life.
Therefore, we cannot become slaves of desire.
Fewer desires leads to contentment; a person with few desires is one who will be more contented.
If I am given a bowl of rice, I will feel delighted and filled with gratitude. When you are feeling hungry, a little food is enough to fill you with gratefulness.
No matter what others present to you, if you find it good, then, you should look away. Why? Because it adds no value to your cultivation. By doing so, you will attain progression in your cultivation.
As such, desires are poison. It will harm you when you are off guard. In the past, Buddhist scriptures referred desires as snakes that reside in the heart. The moment thoughts of desire arise, they will bite and stir your heart.

*HOW TO HANDLE OTHERS’ SHORTCOMINGS*
Question: As our Buddhist learning and practice deepen, we will tend to discover more and more shortcomings on ourselves and on others. While we work hard to overcome our own shortcomings, however, noticing the shortcomings of others would only make us feel that they are not as kind as we thought they were. Unconsciously, we will start to perceive them pessimistically and may even result in the development of contentious relationships. Master, may I ask if this shows that our cultivation has strayed? How can we restrain and overcome such a critical mentality of ours towards others?
Answer: When you perform recitation of scriptures diligently, at a certain point of time, your state of mind will be elevated and you will, indeed start to notice many shortcomings of others. Just like me, the minute I meet someone, I can see through all their shortcomings. However, you are a Bodhisattva, a Buddhist cultivator. You have to love the person despite their faults. Just like a father or a mother who sees the faults of his child, you will have to continue to help the child to allow him to progress and not to despise him. This should be the mentality. Only through this, your sense of equanimity will arise. They are like your brothers and sisters. “It is alright that they have some faults. I have my own sets of faults too in the past. Now that I have made some improvement, all the more I should help him overcome his faults too. Only then all of us will be free of faults.”

*UNDERSTANDING “STUBBORNESS WILL LEAD YOU NOWHERE AND YOU WILL GAIN NOTHING IN LIFE”*
Caller: Master Lu, you mentioned in your previous discourse that “Being stubborn in life will gain us nothing ultimately”. How do we comprehend this statement?
Master Jun Hong Lu: A stubborn person will gain nothing. “I must have it”; insisting on having something will result in you losing it inadvertently and if you don’t get it, all the more you will end up with nothing. “I must have it”, when you did not acquire it, isn’t it nothing? Even when you managed to gain it, it will quickly be taken away from you. This is because things obtained through your stubbornness cannot be kept for long. It will be dissipated very quickly.

(Master Jun Hong Lu’s call-in radio program)
*HOW DO WE ELIMINATE MAJOR KARMIC OBSTACLES?* *ELIMINATION WILL TAKE ON A SPEEDIER RATE WITH A HIGHER STATE OF MIND*
Caller: Master Lu, is it true that major karmic obstacles are in fact not easy to eliminate? Am I right to say that it takes a person’s sincere repentance, coupled with his persistent efforts in performing recitation of mantras, and not forgetting having to undergo a certain part of its retribution before it can be fully eliminated?
Master Jun Hong Lu: That’s right.
Caller: It is crucial that one has to suffer its retribution?
Master Jun Hong Lu: Yes. This is a very good question, young lady. You are very smart. When one has created some negative karmas in the past, of which the retribution has not taken place; if he continues to do more evil, it is equivalent to accruing more negative karmas. Let me quote you an example. There is virus in your computer, if you do not get rid of the virus, and it has been further infested with new virus, it is when the amount of viruses goes out of control, that’s when your computer will crash.
Caller: I understand, Master Lu. It is important for us to elevate our state of mind, only then we are able to transform the power of karma, cause and effect at its core. Anything less, will be considered as superficial efforts, am I right?
Master Jun Hong Lu: That’s right. You are very smart, young lady.
Caller: Furthermore, if one’s state of mind is elevated quickly enough, his karmic obstacles will be eliminated at an even speedier rate. Is that the case?
Master Jun Hong Lu: That’s for sure. Let me ask you. When an airplane first started to take-off, its speed is slow, right? The higher it flies, the faster it is, right? When your state of mind is high, don’t you think your progress will be faster?
Caller: That’s right.

[emoji95]感恩山东任萃荣同修分享[CURLY LOOP]乳腺癌癌变转移到全身骨头上和血液里,全国权威医院大夫宣布没救。短短两个多月的时间里,念经做功课、念佛教经文组合给我的要经者、放生、发书、度人,我的病好了,身体里没有癌细胞了。[emoji95]
[emoji258]我今年65岁,生于1949年,属牛,于2005年以前患有糖尿病、心脏病、高血压,2005年初发现右乳肿胀疼痛,经医院检查确定乳腺癌,并于2005年3月12日请济南军区90医院专家在淄博张店区医院全麻做了右乳癌切除手术,术后病情诊断浸润性导管癌,液窝淋巴结癌转移,腋窝脂肪组织查见癌细胞,随后进行了化疗、放疗,并长期间断性口服“他莫西林芬片”。病情到了2011年因发现右髋节疼痛,在当地医院查不出结果,随后又上省级医院检查,进行全身骨显像显示,全身骨多部位局灶性异常核素浓聚,诊断为肿瘤骨转移,是继发性恶性肿瘤,也就是我的病癌变转移到全身骨头上和血液里,随即进行了放疗,并进行了坐来膦酸、氟维司群注射,每月一次,直到生命的终结。
各关节的疼痛,让我难以忍受,大夫告诉我,走路不能自理,需人扶助,否则一旦跌倒,造成骨折,我将在床上度过我的余生,注射的药是来自国外,这种药需全部自费,一针6000多元价格昂贵,以我的经济能力又如何能长期负担得了,俗话说,一人长病全家穷。我们全家上下的心思全部用在我的病上了,家人和我每月要奔波来往于济南、淄博。在济南、淄博来往治疗期间,我的身体又出现了新状况,病情不但没有好的转变,肠道又有新毛病了,粘膜慢性炎症伴固有腺之间查见少量核异质细胞,癌细胞在肠道上又出现了,这时全家更急了,2013年元月十五日医院又让我做了骨扫描,结果全身骨癌细胞转移,在医院教授面对面给我下了定义,你的病已无药可救了,你的生命走到了尽头,严重的情况在我身上随时都可能发生。这时我对大夫说:我才60来岁,我还不想死,乳腺癌全国最好的专家是谁,他向我推荐北京解放军307医院。随后又辗转到北京检查,医生做了全面检查后,让三个月后再去复查。
与此同时,我过去学佛的佛友给我送来了法门入门手册,带一盘光碟,是2012年师父在香港当场给佛友治癌症的典型实例和白话佛法,我一看爱不释手,如痴如醉地看、学习,陶醉在佛知识的海洋中,感到法门就像是为我而来的。看到书上的联系方法,在济南住院期间就与山东的同修结缘电话联系,辗转之余联系到当地的同修们,因我年龄大,不会操作电脑,把情况向同修说明后,同修在百忙中晚上赶几十里路,抽时间到家里来帮助我,教我如何念经、发愿、放生、念佛教经文组合。
同时向秘书处发紧急邮件求助,不几天等来了秘书处发来的邮件,从此我正式走入法门的修学之路,修心、修行、念经做功课,念佛教经文组合还债,放生、许愿、看师父的录音、录像。师父在邮件里开示了五条。
一、每天49遍以上大悲咒,求大慈大悲观世音菩萨保佑我某某某身体健康,治好我体内的乳腺癌、糖尿病。
二、每天13遍心经求大慈大悲观世音菩萨保佑开智慧。
三、礼佛大忏悔文5遍求大慈大悲观世音菩萨帮助我忏悔和消除孽障。
四、往生咒49遍求大慈大悲观世音菩萨超度因我而死去的小灵性。
五、准提神咒49遍。
师父特别开示要念280张佛教经文组合,放生1000条鱼,发愿至少初一、十五吃素,不杀生,不再吃任何活的东西,弘法度人、印书、弘扬法门。
我在佛台求菩萨并许愿念佛教经文组合给我的要经者,严格按照师父开示的功课去做,之后再念佛教经文组合、发书、度人,随着时间的推移,身体出现了神奇的变化。今年4月16日去北京307医院检查,18号下午进行骨盆穿刺,4月23日我的病理报告出来了。
病理诊断:
我的病好了,身体里没有癌细胞了,我这被全国权威医院大夫宣布没救的人发生奇迹了,这是多么不可思议的事!
吃了那么多的药,打了那么多的针,病情不断扩散、恶化。感觉时刻有一个软刀子在全身自由活动,每到一处就像刀割一样痛,右肾经常在不断上下颤抖,全身骨头、血液里均是癌细胞,这些症状的出现曾让我一度失去活下去的信心,身体的病痛,心灵上的绝望。这些在我修法门后完全改变了,在短短两个多月的时间里我的病出现乾坤大扭转,神了、奇了,病灶癌细胞没有啦,我情不自禁地把好消息告诉了同修、周围的病人和曾经的病友,让他们和我一起分享法门的奇迹,法门太灵验了,太灵验了。
死亡线上受尽了病痛折磨的我好了,是师父特别开示让我放1000条鱼,诵经念佛教经文组合还债,才得以发生这些奇迹。今后除了继续完成师父开示的经文之外,我将不断地做下去,同时也更加坚定了修观世音菩萨法门的信心、决心,一门深入,一门精进,我发愿一定要度成千上万的有缘众生,永远学习法门,做观世音菩萨的千手千眼,做师父的千手千眼,永不退转,用佛法治病救度众生,创造生命奇迹,弘扬师父的法门,做到生命不息修行不止,生命不息度人不止,生命不息专修法门不止,永远跟随大慈大悲观世音菩萨,跟随师父。
