The Demon King's Insights on Practitioner Su's Teachings
A Second Interview with the Internet Demon King
Recorded on March 19, 2020, at the Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre
This is a record of an interview with the Demon King, who sought deliverance at the Hsiang Kuang Buddhist Centre in Australia. This account reflects upon his second visit and his observations on the effectiveness of spreading the online. Recorded by the chief writer, Shi Faxi, on March 19, 2020.
Demon King speaks:
"Namo Amituofo. I am the Demon King. Hearing the Dharma here has truly broadened my horizons! I had never heard of a Teacher with such immense power—this Practitioner Su, whom everyone speaks of, possesses such incredible strength that he was actually able to shout me awake. If my own mother had possessed even a fraction of this skill, perhaps I would not have spent my life chasing daydreams, eventually spiralling into the Demon Realm. Thinking back on it now, I was truly foolish!"
A Demon's Perspective on Spreading the Dharma
"Sigh! Let us get to the point. You want my help with this 'save the world' mission? Honestly, I have never even learned such a phrase in my entire life; it seems quite beyond me. But you are all good people—such individuals are truly rare in this world—and I can see that you are genuinely trying to find a path to spread the Dharma within the chaotic world of the internet. I believe I have a method that might assist you, though it will still require your own diligent effort to execute."
"My suggestion is this: take the words that Practitioner Su has spoken and turn them into images to share with everyone. Although I have observed that Practitioner Su is not a man who seeks fame or fortune, and he would likely not enjoy having people promote him, I have a reason for suggesting this. The words Practitioner Su speaks are simply too powerful and too full of truth! Sometimes, the human heart is in desperate need of a stern lesson. When people see such forceful, weighty words, it is truly a shock to the system! Even I could not help but be stunned by the power of his words for a long time."
The Power of Direct Truth
"So, take my advice: share these quotes from Practitioner Su, craft them into eye-catching images, and distribute them rapidly. This will pique the interest of many and leave them deeply moved by his teachings. In truth, people have heard enough 'pleasant' platitudes; occasionally, they need a forceful shout to stop them in their tracks. This is what makes one's practice more spirited. I am only telling you what I believe, because people on the internet today have very heavy appetites—they prefer a stronger flavour."
"Practitioner Su’s words cut through with surgical precision; they are perfectly suited to be presented for everyone to taste. I am certain this will have a massive effect. As for this Teacher, Practitioner Su, I offer him my sincere praise! Although I have never studied Buddhism, after listening to a few of his Dharma talks, I truly feel that he is a rare, living Buddha. What he says is so logical and is exactly what the people of this world need to hear. This is my advice to you, and I believe you can handle it well because I have seen that your team is quite formidable. Keep working hard; this is a path that can lead to a breakthrough! I will say no more. Namo Amituofo."
