I recalled someone told me he don't have
time to cultivate.
I said: Never mind, you chant Guru's mantra enough n
visualize Guru smiling at you.
Another student ask: Reverend, why did you tell
him chant Guru's mantra enough, don't need to cultivate?
Hahaha! When you chant
Guru's mantra you are in actual fact Cultivating already!
The one that don't
have time to cultivate a full session don't understand what is cultivation.
The
other one that listened in also don't understand what is Cultivation.
Dear
readers, would like to hear from you all.
Sean Low One has to understand the actual meaning of cultivation..
It shall not be just restricted to a particular 'format/form'..
If one finds it difficult to do full session, he can always pick part/one section of the session to start with. Chanting GM's mantra is a good way to get started. Most important one has to be happy doing it

Dharma Wangsa In my humble opinion, i think cultivation is not must sit then pray or
chant mantra for hours. I think we can do cultivation in everywhere and
everytime, sincere heart and clear mind is the important.
I think is easy to chant Guru's short mantra into heart and visualize guru smiling to us with his compasionate face. When we do that i think we are is already in cultivation, but i think when we have enough time it's good too to sit and chanting mantra for hours, cultivate full session. But more, i think cultivation is not just about chanting mantra. My means is we must can do cultivation in everywhere and everytime, in all our activities we can still do cultivation because i think life is cultivation from sleeping, wake up, eating, working is still include in cultivation.

And if one have enough time but don't wanna to cultivate full session only chant guru's mantra, i think it's not good because we can easy be lazy. When we have time we must cultivate full session, when we really don't have enough time we can just chant guru's mantra. We must wise in cultivation, don't too hard or soft.

Cheong True Buddha is just so easy that sentient being are too "fix" in
mind that it has to be in temple or have an alter to do prayer or cultivation.
Like what you advise by chanting GM mantra - GM will come. Inviting GM is
equally inviting all Goddess and place them in our heart is already an alter.
So we can chant any time we like.
To me I always carry them where ever I goes :)

Candra I'd say this is the example of the two extremes whereby the former knows
about the 'formal procedure' of cultivation but shuns it by considering that
it's very time consuming.
The latter, on the other hand, thinks that cultivation isn't that easy.
The latter (perhaps) thinks that cultivation must be of sitting in front of the altar, preparing offerings and following all the written procedure, which in the end may lead to being too formal and risks himself being a religious bigot.
If we read GM's explanation of the Big Seal (Mahamudra), He clearly exposes the way to integrate those two extremes in which we transform our 'scattered' state into 'calm and composed' state during the so-called formal sadhana and extend the 'calm and composed' state into daily activities (as per the former's inquiry).
Well, this is very important since many cultivators forget how to sustain the 'calm and composed' state during their daily activities.
Despite knowing that cultivation is a matter of affinity, it's still better if both of them know how to integrate the solution of both inquiries.

Poon Hahaha! dear nino, for someone who relaxes with playing a musical
instrument or martial arts to de-stress, maintaining cool calm clear which I
called the 3Cs is easy!
Most can't see what is right in front of them all the time and most like to pass their problem to others so as not to bear responsibilities.
They can then say: Fashi teach me this way. [ so it is Fashi's fault!]. Hahaha
Dear junhao, if u chant 8 million of GM's mantra, Gm will bring u on a tour to Maha Twin Lotus Pond
Nino
Candra Aye, i agree with you. They should know what's the best for themselves,
afterwards go on the progress, observe and don't doubt. Passing the
responsibilities may look childish

Thung 修行-修正自己的行爲。修正前必須要知道哪裏[歪]，並
First one must realise & acknowledge his mind defilements & impurities that will lead to wrong actions of the body,speech & mind.
Be mindful of all these at every instant so tat he will only commit the good and refrain from bad actions tat will create bad karma.
The crux is know each tots first before doing any action.
Most ppl do first and regret later or worst,not knowing what they hv done!
This seperate a cultivator from a layman

Thung ~~Cultivation is
to correct wong actions to wholesome actions.
So one must know his unwholesome mind that lead to wrong action and correct from within.
Then his action externally will b corrected~~
