The Cosmic Balance of Positive Energy

Venerable Abidas, the 996th Venerable to be interviewed, sought deliverance through the compassionate guidance of Practitioner Su. Having been liberated from the lower spatial layers of the universe, this Venerable now resides within the light of the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. This interview was recorded on June 17, 2018, at the Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre.

Venerable Abidas speaks:

"Namo Amituofo. A streak of golden light sliced through the dark, starry sky. In that split second, every planet in the cosmos ceased its rotation. It was a movement so incredibly subtle and rapid that it would be impossible for the physical eyes to perceive. This was Practitioner Su, ascending into the interstellar expanse with 1,162 Venerables, carrying boundless energy and radiance, prepared for the day's cosmic Chao Du.

The Vastness of Cosmic Deliverance

Regardless of how the energy fields within the universe shift, the Dharma Body remains unaffected, ascending directly to the stage of deliverance. Practitioner Su’s work of Chao Du in the universe is truly boundless. He delivers everything—from massive galaxies, star clusters, and planets down to the smallest specks of dust and infinitesimal particles. Some planets possess atmospheres, while others are barren; some are adorned with luminous rings, while others are stark; some follow regular orbits, while others leap erratically through the void. There are substances that pierce through planets, appearing as mere black dots before vanishing into the depths of space. Other celestial bodies burn like fireballs, radiating intense heat into the surrounding void. The entire universe seems remarkably silent, save for the subtle sounds of planets gliding, the explosive collisions of celestial bodies, or the various materials traversing the vastness of space. This is the lowest level of the cosmic spatial hierarchy.

Practitioner Su’s work of Chao Du has long since transcended these lower spatial layers. From where I stand, the entire starry sky is incredibly bustling! Aliens operate their planets; if viewed through technological instruments, these planets appear to be moving along set orbits, but in terms of the actual space they occupy, they are wandering and rotating in highly irregular patterns. They are constantly searching for energy sources throughout the universe. Some planets dispatch UFOs to traverse the cosmos—each one a transparent, luminous entity of varying sizes. Only planets with immense energy reserves can afford to develop larger UFOs. Launching a single craft consumes a staggering amount of the planet's energy, yet they consider it a risk worth taking if they can secure a greater energy source to bring back. They are forced to seek energy externally, for a planet must possess a constant supply of energy to sustain its existence within the universe.

The Gathering of Dark Forces

Some UFOs never return; they are drawn away by a different, rebellious energy force within the universe. Why are they susceptible to being pulled in? Because their fundamental nature is identical. This means that these UFOs carry the same rebellious, malicious, and unfriendly qualities. When the nature is the same, they naturally attract, resonate, and flock to one another. As the saying goes, 'birds of a feather flock together.' They gather to form a formidable force, aiming to dominate the entire universe, destroy its equilibrium, and eventually conquer the entire worldly realm. However, their dreams are not easily realised, for there remains a powerful positive energy in the universe that acts as a counterweight. Whenever they exceed the balance of the universe's normal operations, this positive energy acts to suppress their evil deeds.

This malevolent force is driven by extreme ambition, formed by the gathering of the 'kings of demons.' Every alien absorbed into this fold becomes a submissive subject, obeying orders without question. They are all cloaked in black, representing mystery and malice. This energy is incredibly powerful within the universe; it moves with such speed that ordinary planets cannot keep pace. Currently, this force cannot grow rapidly. Whenever it reaches a certain threshold, half of it is eliminated. This is precisely the effect of the positive energy acting as a check. Whenever the standard for maintaining cosmic balance is breached, the excess must be forcibly reduced. This reduction is, in essence, the receiving of karmic retribution. Those who are eliminated are the kings of these evil forces who have committed countless atrocities throughout the universe. Their time for retribution has arrived; the same speed with which they once invaded other planets is now used to draw them into the place of their punishment.

The Realm of Retribution

Within the universe, there exists a zone that is simultaneously freezing cold and intensely fiery. No planet can enter this region; it is the designated circle of retribution for these kings of evil forces. The area of this zone is vast, which is necessary to contain such a massive quantity of cosmic evil. When these evil forces are drawn into this zone at extreme speeds, the instantaneous contraction and freezing are beyond verbal description. It is incredibly fast—a force a hundred times stronger than their own is meting out justice. Within this zone, freezing cold and intense heat intersect. They are subjected to instantaneous contraction and freezing, then burned like fireballs into infinitesimal particles, only to be restored to their original state and contracted again. The duration of this retribution is determined by the destructive nature of their past deeds. For those whose destructive impact on the universe is greater, the duration of their punishment must be longer. The minimum length of this retribution, if calculated by current worldly standards, is over hundreds of millions of years, as their destructive reach has encompassed the entire Dharma Realm and empty space.

Practitioner Su has been performing Chao Du in the universe for some time now. The energy he brings has truly caused these kings of evil forces to look at him with new eyes. A small portion has already quietly defected to Practitioner Su’s power, taking refuge in Namo Amituofo and walking the path of Goodness. Their numbers are steadily increasing. Compared to other demonic realms in the universe, they are the 'kings of kings' and are far more difficult to subdue; thus, they are currently joining the ranks of Namo Amituofo in small, clandestine groups.

The Power of the Thrice Yearning Ceremony

During today’s Thrice Yearning Ceremony, from the very beginning of the noon offering, cosmic demonic forces were already watching from the periphery. They were investigating this 'positive energy' that is causing such a sensation throughout the universe; its power is indeed vast and shocking. When the noon offering began, the microphone emitted a sharp, piercing sound. This was not merely a sound heard by the physical ears; if you could traverse cosmic time and space, you would hear the high-decibel frequency of a vast multitude of planets descending upon this location from across layers of space. Suddenly, the lights in the Dharma assembly hall dimmed; they were shrouded in layers of space, filling every corner.

Some of these investigating cosmic demonic forces, beyond mere observation, also sought to absorb the immense energy of the Dharma assembly to bring back to the universe and expand their dark influence. Little did they know that upon arriving here, they would be one by one subdued by the power of Righteousness! The Dharma Body of Namo Amituofo, with its gentleness and compassion in subduing demonic enemies, caused even the 'kings of kings' within the Demon Realm to be obediently pacified and softened. Therefore, the number of cosmic demonic forces delivered today is countless, and the sentient beings arriving from across the universe are truly boundless.

The energy of Chao Du set in motion by Practitioner Su has caused the kings of the entire universe to look on with newfound respect. It has truly and genuinely shaken the entire universe, and the universe has indeed begun to be rectified and transformed, rapidly returning to the Land of Infinite Light to restore cosmic peace."
