Xing Shaoxue:

Namo Amituofo, I am Xing Shaoxue. After arriving in the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss, I realised that everything I had experienced before was truly illusory. While I was alive, I actively managed my life, but once the curtain fell on my life, everything returned to nothingness, and I realised I had never truly possessed anything. Although I once thought I saw through everything in this world and knew how to handle it, in reality, I never truly understood.

After passing away, I lived the life of a ghost realm being within the space I was attached to. Although a long time had passed, I did not know so much time had gone by. It was not until my grandchildren and family members signed me up for the Dharma Assembly that I realised I had been away from the world for so long, and understood that everything before me was only temporary.

While listening to the sutras in the Western Land of Dharma Nature, at first, I still could not let go of my family and friends who were still alive. In fact, I treated everyone with sincerity and interacted with them, so when I was suddenly asked if I wanted to go to the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss, I was somewhat hesitant; I was not sure if I could let go of all this.

However, now that I have arrived in the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss and seen everything here, I understood in an instant that my previous hesitation was truly unnecessary.

In fact, in the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss, one can still clearly see everything on Earth. If one wishes to see anyone they knew in the past, they can appear before one's eyes at any time, without any separation or distance. Furthermore, one is more at ease; one does not miss them because one cannot see them, but rather, one can see them clearly and let go. This is also the magnificent aspect of the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss.

I really did not expect the Buddha’s teachings to be so inconceivable. It is truly very fortunate that my descendants are so outstanding and know to encounter and learn the Buddha’s teachings; this is truly quite rare and precious.

One must know that the propagation of the Buddha’s teachings in the world is not easy. I can see from the Western Land of Dharma Nature and the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss that the spread of the Buddha’s teachings on Earth is fraught with obstacles. If it were not for Namo Amituofo and Practitioner Su constantly and vigorously breaking through, it would actually be very difficult for people who have never encountered the Buddha’s teachings to know Namo Amituofo.

However, now the doors of the temple are about to open, and they will lead more beings. As someone who arrived in the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss first, I consider it a great honour to be able to manifest the Dharma with my own experience as the temple opens, letting everyone know that the temple can truly help everyone be reborn in the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss, and that it has truly enabled my spirit, which was originally unclear, to now be so clear and articulate about all of this.

I am grateful to Namo Amituofo, Practitioner Su, and my family for signing me up for the Dharma Assembly. Rebirth in the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss is truly not an easy matter. I am very grateful for your dedication, which has enabled the magnificent and rare result of my arrival in the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss today.

As your elder, I wish to set aside this status, relationship, and position, and sincerely bow in gratitude to you. This spirit has been saved because of you, and the gratitude in my heart is beyond words.

Namo Amituofo
