This is a very interesting and enlightening speech by Guru.

1. Guru talks about Offering.

To cleanse before offering, as we do not offer tainted food or left over food to Divinities.

Therefore, in recent articles about eat before doing bardo delivery, is incorrect.

The reverend told student that she believes that One needs to eat in order to have strength to do bardo delivery is INCORRECT.

He also explains what is tainted food and how to deal with them.

2. Hindrances to cultivation. When one's karmic negative level is too high, this person can't cultivate to attain any result or success.

He also elaborated on the various types of hindrances.

3. He touches on Fengshui or Geomancy. 

He said that most students think that any vajra-master is able to read Fengshui. However, he said these masters really have no idea but just go into the premise & blow a breath of air and considered as cleanse or done. Also gave instructions on placement or arrangement in that premise too, without true knowledge of geomancy at all.

Guru said when he asked them, they said these knowledge are passed down from ancestors!

However, students were somehow deceived that these knowledge came from Guru!

4. He said certain matters like the actual birthday of Sakyamuni Buddha can't be shared or disclosed, else people will commit karmic negative in ridiculing him.

Well, these are hindrances of sentient beings to learn. 

That's why knowledge are being with-held because of Sentient Mindset.

5. Dharani all without name of authors. They are compiled by Ananda from memory of Buddha's teachings and encounters. Just like those transcribed by Reverend Da Tian, they might be differences. So which one is accurate, no one knows. 

However, those Dharani by Tantric masters all have authors.

This is also another hindrance to cultivation as you don't know which Dharani to take as real!

There is no need to argue and waste time to determine which is true and which false.

Guru advised to suppress one's demons and cleanse self inorder for Buddha to live into your heart, then and only then, you can cultivate with success.

[I have already pointed out that as most Dharani are alleged to be from Buddha, but they are mostly recorded from memory and complied by Ananda and etc. Therefore, the Human Error Factor should be taken into account, and I humbly advise all to not get too fixated by True & False issue but get the keys from the Dharani.]
