7 Preface Master Jun Hong Lu s Buddhist Practice - Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door is about the science of our minds. According to Buddhism, everything arises from our minds. Our minds create the world we live in. To transform our life for the better, Guan Yin Citta starts by transforming our minds. Guan Yin Citta opens the door to happiness. It provides us with a practical way to learn the infinite wisdom of the Buddha, and elevates us above everyday life filled with sorrow and strife. Our minds are like a locked door with boundless potential inside; Guan Yin Citta is the key that opens up the door. Guan Yin Citta offers effective solutions to many issues we face in modern society. It instils into people the time-honoured wisdom and essence of traditional culture. Thus, millions of families have achieved harmony at home. This paves the way for a cohesive society and a peaceful world. Master Jun Hong Lu JP is a renowned leader of the Chinese community in Sydney, Australia. He is also the founder of Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door. Master Lu has been promoting traditional Chinese culture and v

8 Preface Buddhism through his radio programmes since His Buddhist practice, Guan Yin Citta, is a precious gift transmitted directly from the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva. Guan Yin Citta is aimed at saving the hearts and souls of all sentient beings at this critical moment when our world is faced with various difficult challenges. Guan Yin Bodhisattva is widely known for her infinite compassion, and her willingness to save all sentient beings from suffering. Deeply inspired by such spirit, Master Lu has for decades been carrying out Guan Yin Bodhisattva s mission in this world. Through his radio programmes and website, Master Lu uses plain language to explain the profound teachings of the Buddha; he also travels extensively around the world to spread words of wisdom and the message of compassion. In just five years since the founding of Guan Yin Citta, 10 million people have become Master Lu s followers and his website has already garnered 50 million hits. Guan Yin Citta has motivated people in every corner of the world to practise Buddhism under the guidance of Master Lu. For the past three decades, Master Lu has devoted himself fully to transforming people s lives with the wisdom of Buddhism. His selfless devotion has won him love and respect from Buddhist practitioners around the world: vi

9 Preface monastic and laypersons alike. Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door is rooted in the three golden Buddhist practices - reciting sutras, performing life liberation, and making great vows. Moreover, Master Lu s way of explaining Buddhist teachings is clear and accessible, but never lacks in depth. His instructions help people advance along the path of practising Buddhism, increasing their wisdom, and becoming enlightened. Master Lu inspires people to think and act like Guan Yin Bodhisattva, to be kind and compassionate towards people regardless of who they are or where they are from, and help sentient beings far and wide. Guan Yin Citta teaches us to apply Buddhist teachings to our everyday issues. By engaging in the study and practice of Buddhism, we can then reduce negative karma, regain our health, be free from the endless cycle of rebirth, and finally progress to the Western Pure Land of Amitabha Buddha and the Four Sagely Realms. Master Lu s Buddhism in Plain Terms provides comprehensible and relatable guidelines to train our minds. According to Buddhism, The Buddha spoke of various kinds of dharma in order to train the various kinds of our minds. The mind here is the affliction and ignorance within ourselves. Guan Yin Citta can eradicate our various kinds of deluded minds, break through our vii

10 Preface delusion and confusion, strengthen our faith in Buddha-Dharma, and cleanse our minds of defilements. In this way, we reconnect with our conscience and our inherent nature. We reclaim our morality, grow our wisdom, and truly be free from the bondage of the mundane world. This is the return to our inherently pure state, the transcendence of mortality. Guan Yin Citta encourages everyone to abide by the rules and regulations of their own country, and show love for fellow citizens, the community, and the country. Practising Guan Yin Citta not only helps us flourish individually but also provides us with the higher purpose of being something bigger than ourselves. In fact, Guan Yin Citta has been a powerful force in making our society more compassionate, equitable and harmonious. We sincerely hope that more people can get to learn and practise such a wonderful Buddhist practice embarking upon Guan Yin Bodhisattva s vessel of compassion in order to purify the minds, be free from suffering and worries, reduce negative karma and karmic debt, help others go to a higher spiritual realm, spread the Dharma far and wide, and finally ascend to the Pure Land and the Four Sagely Realms. viii

21 盧軍宏台長佛言佛語 ( 四 ) 人能忍辱, 什麼問題都能解決 ; 人不能忍辱, 就什麼問題都解決不了 Any problem can be resolved if you are tolerant, whereas nothing can be resolved if you are intolerant. 學佛學菩薩就必須先學會忍辱 Practising forbearance is the first lesson in learning to be a Buddha or a Bodhisattva. 7

22 Words of Wisdom from Buddhist Master Jun Hong Lu (Volume 4) 世界上很多事情 都是無中生有 有中又無的 In many cases, there is something in nothing.

23 盧軍宏台長佛言佛語 ( 四 ) 眾生同樣都走在死亡之路上, 為什麼還要相互擠兌? We are all treading the same path to death, so why are we still nudging each other out of the way? 修行人不改變, 就什麼也得不到 Buddhist practitioners who refuse to change themselves will gain nothing. 9

28 Words of Wisdom from Buddhist Master Jun Hong Lu (Volume 4) 真正得道的人, 是不會說自己得道的 ; 自稱已經得道了, 就不是得道之人 A person who has gained a certain level of spiritual attainment will not tell everybody they have done so; a person who claims to have gained a certain level of spiritual attainment actually has not done so. 14

35 盧軍宏台長佛言佛語 ( 四 ) 知吾人盡善也, 法喜! 知吾人作孽也, 心痛! Dharma joy lies in knowing that we are doing good! Remorse lies in knowing that we are doing evil! 人不開心就進入了虛幻的狀態 When you are unhappy, you are in a state of illusion. 21

Those who indulge themselves in sensual pleasures for ten years are only ten feet away from hell. 26

41 盧軍宏台長佛言佛語 ( 四 ) 任何一個人的成功都是有道理的, 去嫉妒別人的人是最傻的 There must be a reason for someone to be successful. Thus, it is foolish to be jealous of their success. 修養來自於你溫和的習慣 Being a civilized person is the result of having a habit of being gentle. 27

45 盧軍宏台長佛言佛語 ( 四 ) 心理協調就是一種教育, 能讓人不貪 不貢高我慢 不愚癡 Mental coordination is a form of education, training us to guard against greed, arrogance and foolishness. 學佛就是調整心性 Learning Buddhism is to learn to adjust your state of mind. 31

50 Words of Wisdom from Buddhist Master Jun Hong Lu (Volume 4) 人生是在吃盡苦頭的美中不足中生活, 等到人生最後時才知是一切空 We all live a life of suffering and imperfection. Only when we are in our twilight years will we realise that everything is empty by nature. 36

73 盧軍宏台長佛言佛語 ( 四 ) 修心, 就是修理自己的心, 把品德 道德 身體都修好一點 To cultivate the mind is to fix the mind with a view of improving the character, morality and the body. 對一個人好到底, 就能感動他 Be kind to others from the beginning to the end, and they will be touched. 59
