This is a record of an interview with Venerable Changren regarding the nature of planetary existence and the deliverance of beings in other realms. This session was recorded on June 5, 2018, by the chief writer, Shi Faxi.

Venerable Changren speaks:

"Namo Amituofo. In the vast expanse of the void, explosions seem to be a frequent occurrence. Sometimes planets collide, and at other times, they explode spontaneously. Most of the debris from these explosions becomes cosmic dust or planetary fragments, continuing to exist in the void under this new identity. However, their energy gradually dissipates. Eventually, through certain Causal Conditions, they may fall and settle upon other planets—what the people of Earth call meteors or meteorites.

The Tragic Fate of Planets

The suffering of the sentient beings caught in this process, from the initial explosion to the final impact, is truly beyond imagination. Today, I encountered a passionate being from another planet who explained all of this to me. He sighed as he spoke, noting that the changes in all these planets are largely caused by the personalities and habits of their inhabitants. Many collisions and the subsequent loss of energy and destruction are the direct results of these volatile temperaments. All destiny and outcomes are determined by one's own hands.

The fate and operational mode of a planet are often dictated by the attitude of its leaders, their desire to seize land from neighbouring regions, or their vicious competition with others. Under the influence of such irritable temperaments, both sides suffer, and the silent, voiceless citizens of these planets are left to endure the consequences together. It is such a tragic story—that a planet should meet its destruction simply because of the same habits and personalities found among humans in this world, leading them to sink into the void.

A Team of Light

Today, they finally encountered the deliverance team led by Practitioner Su. The moment this team, filled with such immense energy, stepped into the void, they became the focus of everyone's attention. No one had ever seen such a gentle team before. Their brilliant, massive energy instantly ignited a fighting spirit in the long-despondent spirits. They followed this light, listening to the sound of the Buddha-name—a sound they had never heard before. They listened to the introduction by the Venerable, and they began to chant along.

After this magnificent deliverance, all the spirits gradually transformed their original appearances, returning to a state of pure, good, and cool clarity. Those who followed behind the deliverance team even began to change into pure white garments. Everyone participated in such a magnificent deliverance, and they were all so willing to leave their original places. Even the leaders who had committed grave errors during interstellar wars, under the compassionate power of the Buddha-light, made vows to repent and surrender themselves to the assembly of . It turns out that they were once eminent monks or kings of their worlds, but their status had clouded their original true nature, leading them to commit errors that burdened their planets. This magnificent morning deliverance helped many departed souls achieve rebirth and liberation from their original cycle of rebirth. I am so happy to see this change. I am grateful to Practitioner Su, grateful to all the good conditions that help support the Buddha’s teachings, and grateful for the of the Buddha. Namo Amituofo."

This is a record of an interview with the spirit of Steve Jobs regarding his observations of interstellar spaces and the deliverance of trapped alien souls. This session was recorded on June 5, 2018, by the chief writer, Shi Faxin.

Steve Jobs speaks:

"Namo Amituofo. Looking out at the grey, hazy horizon, the world within that line is familiar—seeing flowers as flowers, mountains as mountains, and the sea as the sea, where the ocean meets the sky. But the world beyond that horizon is boundless, scattered in every corner of the void. In the void, there is broken, discarded waste—the wasted energy thrown out by every planet. Matter that has not been fully decomposed drifts through space. The shadow forces in the void are not the same as those within a planet, which is why beings from other planets require spacecraft and other means of transportation.

The Automatic Judgment Zone

Between the stars, there is an 'automatic judgment zone.' Once extraterrestrial behaviour becomes too deviant, it is sucked into this area. This region traps many alien spirits; their spiritual bodies are in a flattened, imprisoned state. Unless the spirits in this area repent themselves, they cannot escape. Today, as Practitioner Su and the Venerable accompanied the resounding of the six-character Buddha-name, a powerful light energy passed through this place, opening this imprisoned alien zone. Many extraterrestrial lives saw the light once again.

Restoration and Gratitude

The wailing and pain of their spiritual bodies were just like those in the hells. They cherish and are deeply grateful for this liberation. Their compressed and deformed spiritual bodies recovered their original extraterrestrial forms—some with large heads, some with small, some with long limbs, and some with short. The deep-seated negative habits in their souls were washed away by the Buddha-name and the Buddha-light, restoring their good character and emitting strong vibrations—in Earth's language, it is 'endless gratitude.'

Hope and longing, never before seen among these outer planets, finally appeared today. Practitioner Su brought endless energy and hope to these interstellar realms. Today, the number of interstellar beings heading toward the has increased even more; the growth is exponential, which is the harvest of today's deliverance. What the Venerable helped to open is an infinite space. This is a magnificent morning deliverance, and a magnificent Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre. May Namo Amituofo dwell here forever."
