True cultivation is as valuable as a gem. A change in mentality is the key to self-improvement.
实修是宝。
心态是改变自我的秤砣。

*EQUANIMITY*
Master Jun Hong Lu: If you can treat everything that occurs in this world as a natural phenomenon, then you will not be saddened, nor will you grieve. When you view this world with equanimity, your heart will be calm and settled. It is only with equanimity can one attain tranquillity, and thus, you will not be overwhelmed by worries.
When you begin to see all phenomena as ordinary, and that they are things that occur naturally, your heart is pacified and peaceful. This is the state of an unmoving mind. When the mind is unmoved, it rests in tranquillity.

*UNFAITHFUL HUSBAND COMES BACK HOME!*
Sometime in April 2022, my husband had an extramarital relationship. He was all ready to give up everything including his biological son, and he even demanded a divorce.
In light of this, *I made the vow to recite 10,000 times of the _Mantra to Untie Karmic Knots_ and the _Mantra to Disperse Calamities_ each, 49 times of the _Eighty-Eight Buddhas Great Repentance (LIFO)_, and 84 _Little Houses_ to resolve our grievances*. To top it off, I also made the *vow to liberate 1,200 fish and study a chapter of _Buddhism in Plain Terms_ daily for three months*. I implored Guan Yin Bodhisattva that he would change his mind.
Soon after, my husband’s attitude towards me *drastically improved and he stopped demanding a divorce.*
Consequently, *I made another vow to recite 108 _Littles Houses_ to quell our karmic grievances.* Halfway through this, I realised he rarely contacted his lover and by August, they broke up. The family bliss that we once relished has since been restored.

We all live a life of suffering and imperfection. Only when we are in our twilight years will we realise that everything
is empty by nature.
人生是在吃尽苦头的美中不足中生活， 等到人生最后时才知是一切空。

Life is like playing a game of football;
a brief lapse of mindfulness will cause you to be sent off the field.

❤Learning Buddhism is about changing reality and stepping out of your small world to help others
https://youtu.be/7KYquL1jxUg
A person must understand: whether retired or working, don’t be too greedy, as excessive greed leads to disaster. Once a person understands this, especially as they age, they realize their limitations. A fall might leave them unable to get up, sitting for too long leads to osteoporosis, standing for long periods causes joint pain, lying in bed results in sleeplessness, and they forget everything they try to remember. In the end, knowledge fades, organs age, thoughts become rigid, life dulls, and eventually, there is cremation.
Learning Buddhism is about changing reality, stepping out of your small personal world, and helping others. Remember, the energy field of the Bodhisattva is because we embrace Mahayana Buddhism, which saves all sentient beings. We must cultivate ourselves, and when we have cultivated well or made progress, we should quickly help others. Remember, only when you immerse yourself in the wisdom of the human world and its daily life, and help others solve their problems, do you become a Bodhisattva in the human realm.

We must view everything as changeable, only then will we understand impermanence.
Everything is perpetually changing.

🪷 如何近佛？【中英】白话佛法 · 节选
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJvSNTf-...COHp8upe84
若见性者，视之为佛。
Once you see your true nature, you are regarded as a Buddha.
如果你见到了本性，你就是佛。
If you can see your inherent nature, then you are a Buddha.
你做一件事情，
When you carry out a task
想到这件事情是为了众生，
and you realise that you are doing it for the sake of sentient beings,
是为了救更多的众生离苦得乐，
for the sake of helping more people be free of sufferings and gain happiness,
那你就是菩萨，就是佛。
then you are a Bodhisattva, a Buddha.
识佛之人才能信入。
Only those who recognise the Buddha can believe in Buddhism.
一个人拜佛如果仅仅是为了家里经济好一点，为了自己所求，
If you pray to the Buddha, simply with the hope to improve your family finances or to fulfil your own desire,
那他还没有信入，
then you still do not have true faith.
还没有完全信佛，只是为一些福德而求。
You do not fully believe in Buddhism because you pray to the Buddha only to get blessings.
佛不远人，而人远佛。
The Buddha will never leave humans. It's humans who turn their back on the Buddha.
就是说佛永远在我们身边，
That means the Buddha is always with us.
只要想到佛，佛就来了，
Whenever we think of the Buddha, the Buddha will appear.
而我们人的毛病就是想不到佛。
The problem is that we don't think of the Buddha.
我们现在有很多佛友，白天念经念佛，
Many of our fellow Buddhists practise chanting and mindfulness of the Buddha during the daytime.
到晚上做噩梦的时候，
When they have nightmares,
他也很自然地叫“南无观世音菩萨”，
they naturally cry out to Guan Yin Bodhisattva. "Namo Guan Yin Bodhisattva."
马上醒过来，远离噩梦
They will immediately wake up from the nightmare.
