The Vast Tapestry of History
Namo Amituofo speaks:
"Across the vast and mighty expanse of Chinese history, through five thousand years of culture, where do the souls of the legendary figures of the past now reside? They are found within the dimensions of space. Through the of Namo Amituofo, these spaces have been opened to save the many beings connected by karmic affinity, guiding them into the Dharma-Nature Land of the Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre.
Countless beings from ancient times to the present day—their spirits never die—have been invited to share their stories. Within these accounts, the anecdotes of famous figures are preserved. Spanning five thousand years of Chinese history, they reveal the truth of their past lives and their current states of existence."
The Cycle of Rebirth and Retribution
"Regardless of how things were in the past, and no matter how great their achievements were, once the physical body is gone, where does the spirit go? Now, we know that the spirit never dies. It wanders through the cycle of rebirth, coming and going. Some fall into the hells to suffer retribution; others have remained in the ghost realm until this very day; some are trapped in dimensions of space, unable to find a way out; while others have entered the Celestial Realm to enjoy heavenly , guarding the beings of the human world.
The majority of these spirits are found in the ghost realm, though many are also trapped in these hidden spaces. Those who suffered the consequences of their evil deeds in the hells, after their sentences were served, returned to their homeland, yet their spirits remained trapped in these spaces until now. They are all living spirits, yet the distinction between their good and evil deeds is clear."
The Compassion of Practitioner Su
"The vow of Practitioner Su to save these beings has moved Namo Amituofo to bestow His blessing. The Buddha-light of Namo Amituofo shines upon China, opening these spaces so that the beings may emerge. They are guided into the Buddha-light and enter the Dharma-Nature Land of the Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre. Namo Amituofo currently abides at the Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre in Goombungee, Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia.
Practitioner Su’s great vow to save the spirits of China, supported by the twelve rays of Buddha-light from Namo Amituofo, allows her to use her countless manifestations to deliver immeasurable and boundless Chinese beings into the light of Namo Amituofo. The number of these beings is so vast it is impossible to count; they enter the of the Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre like a flowing tide."
A Journey Through the Time Tunnel
"Although these historical figures are now spirits without physical bodies, the memories of their past lives remain etched in their . Now, having been saved and interviewed, they recount the circumstances of their lives and their experiences after death, as if stepping through a time tunnel.
These spirits listen to the sutras and hear the Dharma within the Western Dharma-Nature Land. Their spirits have found peace, resting securely within the Buddha-light, no longer drifting aimlessly through space. Bathed in the Buddha’s light within the Dharma-Nature Land, they listen to the great Dharma of the Pure Land, make vows to chant Namo Amituofo, and seek rebirth in the Western Pure Land. By elevating the quality of their spirits, they gain the opportunity to follow Practitioner Su into the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss—the final destination for every spirit."
Namo Amituofo.
