Inheriting the Past and Opening the Future

Recorded and transcribed by Namo Amituofo’s disciple, Venerable HaiZe.

At this moment, Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre stands as a sanctuary where Namo Amituofo truly abides. With the support of the Buddha, Practitioner Su has manifested his awakened Dharma Body. Because he has realised his true self, he is able to utilise his human body to perform Chao Du through visualisation, carrying out the actual work of saving the world and delivering sentient beings.

The Boundless Scope of Deliverance

The scope of this Chao Du is supported by the majestic power of the Buddha. By relying on the holy name of Namo Amituofo, the deliverance reaches across the entire Dharma Realm, the universe, the Milky Way, and the heavens beyond the heavens. It encompasses:

• The human realm and the heavenly realm
• The Asuras, hungry ghosts, and animals
• Demonic beings and those in alien realms
• The deepest reaches of the hells

The breadth of this work is truly vast and inconceivable. With a Body-Mind-Spirit that has reached the state of an awakened being, and a spirit that can truly take charge, Practitioner Su, under the constant protection and guidance of Namo Amituofo, delivers countless demonic beings and sentient beings throughout the various spaces of the Dharma Realm.

The Protection of the Buddha

Namo Amituofo watches over and blesses the fourfold assembly of disciples. We hope that all disciples will hold firmly to this six-character Buddha-name. The Buddha also protects Practitioner Su, assisting him in using the Twelve Lights to deliver sentient beings and demonic beings alike, while welcoming those who have been saved into the Western Land of Dharma Nature.

Namo Amituofo teaches all beings according to their capacity, and as your teacher, I offer these teachings to guide you at all times. Practitioner Su uses his awakened spirit and physical body to manifest a technology beyond technology, providing profound assistance to all spirits.

A New Era of Spiritual Practice

Many inconceivable events occur in the daily life of Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre. Unlike traditional methods of practice, which often adopt a conservative attitude toward spirits, this Centre has shifted toward an active understanding and Chao Du of these beings. We are actively seeking to reclaim our inherent true self and original nature. In particular, the act of subduing demonic beings represents a significant departure from the traditional attitude of avoiding them at all costs. One who can save demons is certainly capable of saving those in the human realm.

Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre plays a vital role in inheriting the past and opening the future for the Pure Land school of the Buddha’s teachings. I hope that all my students will practise diligently to rediscover their true self, and join the Buddha in the mission of saving the world and delivering sentient beings.
