Namo Amitabha
Brethren, when I speak to you,don't accept it blindly because you love
and respect me. But examine it and put it to the test, as a goldsmith examines
gold by cutting, heating and hammering it to know whether it is genuine gold or
counterfeit. if you see it is reasonable, only then accept it and follow it." --
Shakyamuni Buddha --
DEDICATION OF
MERIT
May the merit and virtues
accrued from this work,
Adorn Amitabha Buddha's Pure Land,
Repaying the four kinds
of kindness above,
and relieving the sufferings of
those on the Three Paths below.
May those who see and hear of this,
And all sentient beings in the Dharma Realm,
All develop the Bodhi Mind,
And live the Teachings for
the rest of this life,
Then be born together in
The Land of Ultimate Bliss.
Homage to Amitabha Buddha!
Life’s most awesome event is death, and death comes to all without
regard to wealth, beauty, intelligence or fame. Death is inevitable, but how you
die—terrified and confused, or with confidence and spiritual mastery—is within
your control.
