LC: Hi dear AA. I remembered you shared a quote from Dilgo about sharing water, the jug must first be full or contain water.
so one should cultivate well in order to help others.
[Being the internet police and disseminate the truth to the newbies so that they won't leave tbs --- what can we do? ]
This statement of yours, ring a bell!
I just remember the quote you shared with me! :)
Cheers dear,
most grateful to GM for sending you my way!
AA: People are getting very funny and they think they're working for TBS with "targets to achieve"?
I found this part by chance in your blog:
"I always accept students only when they have generated the aspiration for Bodhi themselves. I have never sedulously asked anybody to take refuge in me. The number of students does not matter to me. They may come and go as they like, since it is all decided by conditions. If they meet better masters alter, they can take refuge in that master as well."
This is not MLM business hahaha.
Cheers all :)
BB: But numbers do matter for central. Less number less income haha. Ouch, weather is getting warmer.
Anyway in Indo, some really like to share the story about "do not look down on the Monks who break precepts" written by our Guru.
After i read again, there is huge difference between the Monks in the story compare to other Monks nowadays in general. The Monks in the story DID feel very ashame and repented sincerely.
Very different with other Monks who keep breaking precepts even after doing repentance.
Haha, they are really good using SZ's story to shut down the rumour about bad eggs in TBS.

LC: Wow! BB, you realized that NUMBERS means INCOME!
Hehe!
Unfortunately, thats true!
Unlike myself, want to keep the group small, so that can concentrate on them.
AA, those English articles are real good!
Sad that not many really listen to Guru even in Chinese, what more the English Version.
What I brought up about the false statements actually those with good knowledge of Buddha's basic teachings can easily pick the problem out.
Like they only think of MERITS!
So I jeered at them and say they eat Merits for food!
All these will not appear if they have good grasp of 4 Noble Truths & its 8 fold path!
Sad right, to not know for veterans that supposedly cultivate with Guru for decades! :)
Guru already very clear on repentance!
Repentance - Must not repeat. You yourself must be able to accept and know where you have done wrong and ensure won't do again!
Karma is of Individual's responsibilities!
Hahaha!
Human factor! Will act sorry and then go repeat the same again, because they still didn't understand why ensuring self's well-being is wrong.
The word Let Go, don't figure in their vocabulary! Hehe!

Dear all, Well, Guru said [They may come and go as they like, since it is all decided by conditions.]
Everything One does, Determines his Karmic Influences!
Without Affinity they won't stay in TBS.
Without the much lauded but misunderstood "Bodhi-Path Hearts" ; they also won't stay.
Sad that TBS chapters world-wide also looking at Head-counts more then disseminating Authentic Buddha Dharma. They would instill the mentality that if anyone from their chapter attend another chapter's cutlivation session, they are betraying the said chapter.
No one belongs to any particular chapter!
As per Guru, students are free to visit and participate in any cultivation session of choice!
I found that lots of students don't like to go to chapters because they are too proprietary and "possessive"!
For those chapters, do not think that anyone of the other chapters are after "your" attendees!
In Truth, You do not own anyone or anything!
People that choose to leave, as per Guru, all decided by Conditions.
Which means All out of our hands!
Cheers all
