On August 29, 2021, the Buddha's disciple, Venerable HaiZe, respectfully approached Namo Amituofo to seek guidance regarding the ongoing global pandemic. It was noted that without the intervention of the Buddha, there is no way to truly resolve such a widespread crisis. With deep sincerity, the request was made for Namo Amituofo to step forward and offer His compassionate teachings to save the world from this suffering.

The Karmic Roots of Suffering

Namo Amituofo provided a profound discourse on the nature of this crisis. The world is currently entangled in complex worldly affairs and deep-seated emotional attachments. These are not merely random events; they are the manifestations of collective coming to collect their debts. When the collective karma of sentient beings ripens, the pandemic arises, causing immense pain and sorrow to the hearts of people everywhere.

The Stillness of the Buddha

Namo Amituofo abides at Hsiang Kuang Buddhist Centre, as steady and immovable as a mountain. The Buddha remains in a state of perfect stillness, waiting for those with the necessary karmic affinity to sincerely invite His intervention. The Buddha's is always present, yet it requires the sincere heart of a practitioner to bridge the gap between the suffering of the world and the healing power of the .

The Power of Karmic Affinity

If the conditions for this affinity have not yet manifested, then worldly affairs are ultimately empty, like floating clouds and a light breeze. However, when the conditions are ripe and the invitation is made with a pure heart, the of the Buddha can manifest. Through this connection, the intensity of the pandemic can be eased, and the underlying causes can be resolved. It is through this sacred interaction that beings may finally leave suffering behind and find the path to true happiness.
