This is a record of an interview with Venerable Nadahan, who sought deliverance at the Hsiang Kuang Buddhist Centre in Australia. He now resides in the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss. This account reflects upon his observations of Earth from ten trillion years ago. Recorded by the chief writer, Shi Fajing, on June 18, 2018.

Venerable Nadahan speaks:

"Namo Amituofo. I am Venerable Nadahan. You see, extraterrestrial beings do not all inhabit the same space. Those with higher spiritual attainment naturally reside in higher-dimensional spaces, while those with lower spiritual attainment are confined to lower ones. These spaces are stacked layer upon layer, intricately interwoven throughout the vastness of the universe. When extraterrestrial beings descend upon Earth, human physical eyes are unable to perceive them precisely because they exist in different spaces. The spaces within the universe are far higher than the dimension occupied by humans on Earth. Lower-dimensional beings cannot perceive higher-dimensional spaces unless they have cultivated the ability to traverse them. This was once the state that many practitioners sought to achieve. In ancient star systems, there existed such 'old practitioners' who could traverse space, yet even they did not understand the method of chanting the Buddha-name to transcend these spaces entirely."

The Golden Energy of Ancient Earth

"Ten trillion years ago, Earth was a hub of activity. Many extraterrestrial beings came and went with ease, and every single day, one could witness all manner of beings descending upon your planet. At that time, Earth possessed a naturally generated energy—an energy of immense magnitude. It naturally attracted countless extraterrestrial beings who came to Earth to investigate, trying to uncover exactly what caused your planet to produce such a powerful force.

When these beings arrived on Earth, they discovered that this energy radiated a brilliant golden light. It flickered and pulsed, as if it were brewing something profound, and the energy was constantly expanding. These beings tried to approach the source of this energy, and a warm current would naturally flow through their entire bodies, instantly filling them with vitality. They found it absolutely miraculous. 'Where on earth does this energy come from?' they wondered. Batch after batch of extraterrestrial beings came to Earth to investigate, yet none could find an answer. However, simply by arriving on Earth, they were able to take a portion of this energy back to their own planets. This mystery remained unsolved for ten trillion years. The beings who visited Earth back then still exist on various planets throughout the universe. Their lifespans are incredibly long, unlike the fleeting lives of humans. The memories of their first visit to Earth ten trillion years ago are still stored within their memory banks. That immense energy they witnessed remained a question mark—until today, when they finally received the answer."

A Ten-Trillion-Year-Old Mystery Solved

"Practitioner Su led one thousand one hundred and twenty-six venerable beings to surge into the universe. Practitioner Su’s energy is exceptionally powerful; he utilised the six-character Buddha-name, spreading it throughout the entire universe with incredible speed. Among the stars was an ancient planet named Lulama, a planet in the Milky Way that has existed for billions of years. The inhabitants of this planet were among those who had visited Earth long ago. When the Buddha-light and the sound of the Buddha-name permeated the Lulama planet, a group of elders there were astonished. 'This light and energy... it is so familiar!' they exclaimed.

They pressed a few buttons on their bodies, rapidly accessing their memory banks. All the memories from billions of years ago surfaced, appearing one by one like images on a computer screen. These elders were frantically searching through the data stored within their bodies. Suddenly, they found it! On the screen appeared the shape of Earth, and the timestamp indicated a memory from ten trillion years ago—it was the exact energy source they had discovered on Earth. The extraterrestrials linked all their memories with the Buddha-light they were experiencing in that very moment. It clicked! Everything became clear! The powerful energy from ten trillion years ago was remarkably similar to the energy brought forth by Practitioner Su today. Only now, Practitioner Su’s energy is millions of times more powerful than it was back then. The golden light that used to flicker has, by today, expanded to fill the entire universe, spreading to every single planet. The speed of this growth is something that left these elders in absolute awe."

The Bridge to the Western Land

"This golden light and energy had been brewing on Earth ten trillion years ago. It was a golden light transmitted from the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss, planting the seeds of the Buddha’s teachings on Earth. At that time, Earth was not yet a fully formed planet, but even then, it already contained layers upon layers of space, and the Buddha’s teachings began to be transmitted within those spaces.

Today, Practitioner Su has manifested this golden light and energy with a strength millions of times greater, appearing suddenly throughout the universe. The elders who had witnessed this golden light long ago were filled with immense . They finally understood that this is the bridge leading to the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss. At this moment, their Causal Conditions have matured, and one by one, they are following the practice of chanting the Buddha-name to achieve rebirth in the Western Pure Land.

These ancient planets that once visited Earth all share a deep affinity with the Buddha’s teachings. Today, Practitioner Su has brought together these past Causal Conditions, allowing these extraterrestrial beings to be illuminated by the Buddha-light and, following that light, to journey toward their next beautiful destination."

"Namo Amituofo."
