The Inconceivable Nature of Spiritual Space

The Boundless Capacity of the Human Form

Can you imagine a human head containing a planet larger than the Earth? Such concepts are difficult to grasp because the nature of spiritual realms and the dimensions of space cannot be explained by ordinary human logic. Through the work of Practitioner Su, during this large-scale process of inviting and saving suffering beings, we have received repeated verification of these truths. Recently, when Practitioner Su invited the Dharma Body to perform Chao Du for beings from various planets, it was observed that the skin on the head and back could accommodate vast oceans and towering mountains. This is identical to the ancient wisdom which states that Mount Sumeru can be contained within a mustard seed, and a mustard seed can contain Mount Sumeru.

The Overlapping Layers of Reality

Within the vast emptiness of the universe, there exist both physical worlds and spiritual worlds. These spiritual realms exist in overlapping layers within the same space, and they are far more numerous than the physical world we perceive. Unless one has attained the ability to see beyond the physical, these realms remain hidden. Furthermore, the depth and breadth of what one can perceive depend entirely on the degree to which one's spiritual vision has been opened. The spiritual state of a planet is no different; it exists in layers that are invisible to the untrained eye.

The Path to Awakening

Human potential is truly infinite. It lies in the development of the Six Roots and the latent power within the more than fifty trillion cells that make up the human body. What we call Awakening is the process of purifying these Six Roots and every single cell within the body, allowing their full potential to be unleashed. This is a rigorous process of diligent practice that cannot be achieved by mere imagination. One must systematically remove the pollution accumulated within the spiritual consciousness over countless lifetimes. Furthermore, one must purify the physical body in this very lifetime until not even a trace of impurity remains. Only when the body, mind, and spirit reach a state of absolute purity and goodness can one experience the moment of Awakening. In that instant, every cell and pore in the body becomes unobstructed, and the entire being radiates a brilliant, transparent light. To the eyes of an ordinary person, an awakened being may appear no different from any other practitioner. However, to beings in the spiritual realms, they appear as a luminous, highly conspicuous beacon of light. Because the moment of Awakening generates a tremendous vibration, the light emitted from within the body instantly transforms the surrounding magnetic field. Combined with the immense energy of right mindfulness, this creates a powerful, world-shaking force within the space.

The Eternal Radiance of the Awakened

The light emitted by an awakened being does not diminish regardless of the time or space in which they reside. On the contrary, as they continue to perform acts that benefit all beings, their inner light and energy grow ever more magnificent. This radiance determines the brightness of the Buddha-land they will eventually inhabit. The Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, where Practitioner Su currently resides, is not limited by capacity or size; it is already infinitely vast and filled with infinite light. Yet, Practitioner Su continues to walk the path of saving beings in this human world without pause. This is the heart and action of a Buddha or Bodhisattva dedicated to the salvation of all. The fourfold assembly of disciples at Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre is fortunate to witness such a manifestation. You should engrave this in your hearts, as it serves as a spiritual compass for your own practice and future work in saving others.

Cherishing the Extraordinary Dharma Affinity

At present, the work of inviting and saving beings through Practitioner Su continues, and the beings being brought forth are increasingly inconceivable. These are the beings who have crossed paths with Practitioner Su through the accumulated lifetimes of the past twenty years of Chao Du work. In truth, every being who is able to enter the body of Practitioner Su is one who has formed a karmic affinity with them over countless eons. It is only because the conditions have finally matured that they are now able to enter the body of Practitioner Su, and after months, years, or even decades, be invited out to enter the Dharma-Nature Land and the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. This is the result of the good roots, Blessings, and causal conditions of these beings finally coming to fruition. This is why the Buddha’s teachings constantly remind us that the opportunity to encounter a Buddha, a Bodhisattva, or a great practitioner manifesting in the human world is an extraordinary event that is incredibly difficult to find. Those who encounter such a presence receive inconceivable benefits, the greatest of which is the ability to be reborn in the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss and achieve ultimate liberation from suffering. The beneficiaries of this include the fourfold assembly of disciples at Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre. It is because you planted the seeds of learning from Namo Amituofo and Practitioner Su in past lives that you are now able to reap the magnificent fruit of practising in this Buddha-land. You must cherish this connection deeply and strive for early Awakening, so as not to waste this magnificent Dharma affinity. Namo Amituofo.
