Teachings by Teacher Practitioner Xia Lianju:

Those who save beings widely, because they know the suffering of beings, can generate the Bodhi mind to achieve themselves.

Through being fiercely diligent, their natural abilities are revealed, and by continuing to be diligent, they attain Awakening.

The heart and actions of a compassionate practitioner who saves the masses and resolves the suffering of beings:

Able to be in the Five Turbidities and Evil World, through fierce and diligent practice, putting in the effort,

moving forward step by step, purifying and finding the true self;

because of Discipline and meditative concentration, Wisdom is revealed, and one can walk in the world without being confused by the world;

amidst the confusion of others, one remains awake, taking on the transmission of the Buddha’s teachings and the Pure Land,

making it one’s own responsibility to save the world and save beings.

One’s own responsibility is to resolve the suffering of beings while saving them widely,

do as much as one can, and save as many as one can.

Saving beings widely, the beings saved are not just those in the human realm, ghost realm, animal realm,

hell realm, earthly creatures, or flying and crawling creatures,

but also include celestial beings, asuras, sentient beings with karmic affinity in the vastness of the Dharma Realm and spiritual realms,

and even beings in the demon realms, both sentient and insentient.

All of you should understand that this body is like the universe,

containing boundless beings, including karmic creditors from accumulated lifetimes,

attached spirits of this life, and even demon crowds,

all of you have spirits, and the true self is contained within.

Every being is a Buddha, only because the true self is obscured do they fall into the six realms of existence,

through practice and purification, one can wash away layers of dust and dirt.

Not being disturbed or trapped by external environments is the basic meditative concentration of practice.

Lacking meditative concentration in practice is the reason why beings fall into reincarnation and fail in their practice.

Those who save beings teach them, save the masses, and help beings remove impurities and attain purity,

so that the true self is revealed. This is the responsibility of those who save beings and the essential method of saving beings widely.
