Teachings from Teacher Practitioner Xia Lianju
A profound teaching on why true freedom is found not in the indulgence of the ego, but in the discipline of the Precepts and the realisation of one's true nature.
True freedom is a profound state of the heart, where the true self takes command, liberated from the ego, karma, and the influence of karmic creditors.
True freedom arises from within the heart. It cannot be found in the external world. By letting go of emotional attachments and diligently chanting Namo Amituofo, we can rediscover our true self and align with the Buddha-heart.
Teachings from Ashvaghosha Bodhisattva
Ashvaghosha Bodhisattva reveals that true freedom is not an external goal to be pursued, but an inherent state of the spirit that we have lost through our deep-seated attachments to the physical body and the illusions of the world.
