Buddha's Actions in the World

Amitabha Buddha’s discourse:

The Buddha is entirely selfless, existing only for the sake of sentient beings.

The Buddha sees the suffering of beings and wishes to remove their suffering and grant them happiness;

this is the Buddha’s great compassion.

Therefore, to encounter the Buddha appearing in the world to respond to beings with karmic affinity

is a tremendous blessing for the beings of this time and place.

The Buddha’s actions in the world, seeing the suffering of beings and enabling their salvation,

provide the opportunity for beings to leave suffering and gain happiness.

Even if one’s Dharma affinity is insufficient, if one can see the Buddha, pay homage to the Buddha,

and with sincere reverence, join one’s palms and chant one sentence of "Namo Amituofo,"

there will come a time for one to be saved, to leave the suffering of reincarnation or the three evil paths, to be liberated from birth and death,

and to make a vow to chant the Buddha’s name and be reborn in the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss.

This six-character great name is a diamond Bodhi seed; "Once it enters the ear, it becomes a seed for the Path forever,"

whether in this life or a future life, when Dharma affinity matures, there will be an opportunity for liberation.

"Before or after the Buddha" is one of the eight difficulties in the world.

Being born before the Buddha appears or after the Buddha has entered Parinirvana, without the affinity to hear the Buddha teach the Dharma in person,

is a state of suffering.

From this, we can know,

how magnificent and rare it is to encounter the Buddha appearing in the world, and how precious it is!

At the Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre in Australia, at this very time, Amitabha Buddha has descended to the world and abides here.

Here, Teacher Practitioner Xia Lianju and Practitioner Su also care for the fourfold assembly (monks, nuns, laymen, laywomen),

and with the Dragon and Heaven Dharma Protectors surrounding and protecting us, it is truly a tremendous blessing for the human world.

The Buddha saves sentient beings one by one, saving as many as possible,

doing everything in His power to save them according to their karmic affinity, not just one person.

Beings throughout the entire Dharma Realm are the objects of the Buddha’s salvation,

boundless, without the limitations of time or space.

The Dharma affinity at this time comes from beings coming to the temple of their own accord,

or coming to seek the Dharma, seeking Chao Du, or demon crowds seeking to surrender, thus manifesting these spiritual connections,

all of whom can receive the grace of the Buddha and obtain the benefits of the Dharma.

These benefits of the Dharma vary according to the individual:

either one’s heart opens and one understands immediately, thus receiving the benefits of the Dharma;

or later, one feels it in one’s heart and gains realization, thus obtaining the benefits of the Dharma.

Even for those without karmic affinity,

if one can hear the sentence "Namo Amituofo" and it is planted in one’s ear,

then these benefits of the Dharma may, in a future life, or even thousands of millions of years later,

sprout and enable this being to be saved.

This magnificent Dharma affinity with Amitabha Buddha is currently taking place at the Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre in Australia,

"Buddha's Actions in the World," so everyone must earnestly grasp this opportunity and not let it slip away easily.

"The Buddha appears in the world, the Buddha acts in the world,"

one should cherish the opportunity before one, draw near, and seek the Dharma. If it is lost, one does not know when one will encounter it again.
