Teachings by the Teacher. Recorded and transcribed by ’s disciple, Venerable HaiZe.nn22 May 2026nnTeachings by Teacher Practitioner Xia Lianju:nnPractice manifests as composure in the heart’s meditative concentration.nnKnowing the suffering of beings, one’s inner practice is fiercely diligent, like sprinting,nnas the sutra says: 'Externally appearing slow, internally moving with great speed.'nn[[BLOCK_0]]nnEspecially at this time,nnNamo Amituofo resides at the Hsiang Kuang Buddhist Centre in Goombungee, Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia,nnwhich is a rare and difficult-to-encounter event.nnTherefore, the fourfold assembly, when facing every being and every matter,nnshould distance themselves from worldly methods and not handle things in a worldly way; one should have the heart and actions of a practitioner.nnEvery time, one should face things with the most diligent heart and actions, and not let time pass in vain.nn[[BLOCK_1]]nnIn this precious and limited life,nnone should exert one's greatest ability,nnand allow to perform its greatest function to help beings.nnDo not protect this body for oneself, thereby distancing oneself from Universal Principles, Truth, and the Right Path.nn[[BLOCK_2]]nnOne must clearly recognise that the body is an illusory appearance formed by the four elements, possessing a temporal nature,nnarising due to Causal Conditions, and ceasing when Causal Conditions disperse.nnThis body is composed of many cells,nnand within these cells are countless beings that are invisible yet truly exist,nnincluding parents, teachers, family members, and from throughout many kalpas.nn[[BLOCK_3]]nnTherefore, this body is not possessed by me, but is used by countless beings simultaneously.nnBecause these beings exist within the body and are one with me,nngenerally speaking, I and these beings influence one another:nnbeings can interfere with my body, and my body will also attract beings to manifest.nnThis interactive relationship exists intimately within everyone's body.nnHowever, people often do not understand this situation,nnand due to this ignorance, they allow and karmic creditors to take charge and control this body.nn[[BLOCK_4]]nnThe true self is the real master, yet it cannot take charge, allowing karma and karmic creditors to take control,nncausing the body to follow the progression of karma and experience the suffering of aging, sickness, and death.nnEventually, this body will separate from the spirit,nnand the true self will receive the consequences based on the actions performed while in the world—this is truly not worth it!nn[[BLOCK_5]]nnIf one can be diligently focused at this time,nnthen the body, heart, and spirit will follow the footsteps of Namo Amituofo to save beings.nnIf one can be fiercely diligent,nnsprinting forward while chanting 'Namo Amituofo' continuously without interruption,nnchanting one Buddha's name to the end, one can recover the true self and save oneself.nnThis is the wise person of practice.nnNamo Amituofo
