Recorded by Venerable HaiZe on December 10, 2022
The Precious Opportunity of Human Life
My children, life is limited and fleeting. The vastness of the Buddha-land is beyond counting, yet it is only within the human world that one has the rare opportunity to learn the and engage in true practice. To attain Buddhahood is to gain the capacity to save countless creatures from their suffering. This is truly a magnificent and rare opportunity that you must cherish.
You must treasure every minute and every second. Be fiercely diligent in your practice, for the moment of becoming an awakened being can arrive in the blink of an eye. Do not let these precious moments slip away, as the chance to realise your true nature is always present within the stillness of your practice.
The Inconceivable Power of Deliverance
Consider the work of Practitioner Su. Every moment of clarity and every instance where the Dharma Body is put into action serves a profound purpose. By opening up space, Practitioner Su allows countless beings to be liberated from their confinement, receive , and be saved. This is truly an inconceivable feat.
Practitioner Su understands that this unique skill of Dharma Body deliverance is something that exists nowhere else in the entire universe. With the constant presence of Namo Amituofo, who leads these beings into the light, this is a rare and difficult encounter to come by. Because of this, Practitioner Su is deeply aware of the heavy responsibilities that rest upon these shoulders:
- To save all beings and help them leave suffering behind.
- To cultivate talented individuals who can achieve the state of an awakened being.
- To pass on the skills of Dharma Body deliverance to future generations.
- To invite Namo Amituofo to abide in the human world so that all beings may have the opportunity to leave suffering behind and find rebirth in the .
A Mission of and Responsibility
To live each day and every hour with such careful, trembling diligence is truly a noble and precious way to exist. This is the authentic, world-saving conduct that the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and the patriarchs and venerable masters have demonstrated when they manifest in the human world. You are fortunate to be able to follow this path; observe it closely and learn from it.
If you can maintain this focus during your current quiet retreats and move forward with diligent practice, you will surely see results. To set a time and achieve your goals is a great blessing for all beings. This is what Namo Amituofo, your teacher, and Practitioner Su most wish to see.
The Call to Action
The work of saving the world must be pursued with active, unwavering commitment. Do not delay, and do not be hesitant. Walk this path with the utmost care and sincerity, for the salvation of all beings depends upon your resolve. Let your practice be a beacon of light in this world, guiding others toward the path of liberation and the ultimate of the Western Pure Land.
