24-6-2011 HOW CAN U PRAY TO SOMEONE THAT IS STILL ALIVE?你怎么可以拜活人？

Yet another coincidence or GM, the True Buddha, at work again?

I just posted article about attaining Buddhahood in this very body!

Hahaha!

• • Ry: Hi fashi, i went to a petrol kiosk at havelock 
    
    
    rd. Got a service crew pump diesel for me and he
    
    
    saw the pic of grand master that i display on my 
    
    
    windscreen. At first he told me that he had 
    
    
    already gui yi for ten years. Then he told me that 
    
    
    after something happen, he totally never mention 
    
    
    tbs and never regard himself as a student of tbs 
    
    
    anymore. Then he said, HOW CAN U PRAY TO 
    
    
    SOMEONE THAT IS STILL ALIVE? He say that 
    
    
    his friend died because of that. I was quite piss 
    
    
    off but i smile and went off without answering 
    
    
    him anything.
    
    
    Me: Poor fellow. We are not praying but learning 
    
    
    to find our own Buddha nature. We are buddhas 
    
    
    too.

I put up an article today about attaining buddhahood with this body. Go n read.

Well, dear readers, are you praying to GM or are you learning from him?

Why did this person blamed GM for his friend's death, we don't know?

But harboring this kind of bitterness through Misconception is truly very sad.

In Buddhism, we are potential Buddhas, & I have often stress that we find from within our Buddha nature. GM is a Guru that guides & helps us find that Buddha nature from within ourselves.

WE ultimately take refuge with our own Buddha Nature & not like those who don't know how to cultivate, they pray to Deities & etc for blessings & to fulfill their various & most often ridiculous wishes which are mostly Greed based.

To ask for something, we have to give up something in exchange!

GM taught us to say sorry & repent & dedicate merits to our karmic negatives & all sentient beings. These will eventually neutralize our karmic negatives & at the same time make more friends.

Ask yourself frequently: 

What can I do for True Buddha School's efforts to save & help all sentient beings?

How can I lighten GM's load in propagating Dharma?

Drop the WHAT CAN I GET IN RETURN FOR DOING THIS? & DOING THAT?

Give thanks that you are not "Praying" to GM but learning from him!
