Set Price on Buddha Dharma? 佛法定价？

Terjemahan Bahasa: Mematok Harga Untuk Buddha Dharma? 佛法定价？

真佛般若藏 ～师尊说［随缘赞助］！
True Buddha Prajna Garbha ~ GM Lu said [Sponsor at will]!

Hahaha!
Now lets have FUN!

真佛般若藏是什么？
What is this TBPG?
其内容出自那里？
Where does its contents comes from?
其有何作用？
What is the purpose of this TBPG?

真佛般若藏来自莲生活佛［弘法］的典故，内涵他的精髓！
TBPG derives from Living Buddha Lian Sheng's [Dharma propagation] experiences/encounters, consisting of his [vital essences]!

Does Buddha set prices on his teachings?
No!
Likewise, GM Lu said that all can subscribe to be member of TBPG and up to them to sponsor at will!

GM Lu mentioned that the creators of TBPG puts in great efforts and resources and hope that subscribers can help towards lightening the loads of these creators and also help towards maintenance of TBPG.

Now:
Do you need TBPG?
If you need, then for what purpose?

TBPG is actually similar to those sponsoring printing of Dharma literatures like dharani.
If can't reach out to benefit sentient beings, then it serves no purpose at all.
I have written that being able to afford to pay for printing of dharma literatures but unable to give it out and help anyone develop affinity with Buddha Dharma, your efforts and resources are frivolous.
But most pay for printing such literatures for the purpose of increasing their personal merits or to lessen their karmic debts.
This is with ulterior motive for self benefits!


Now from another angle:
Dharma charity ~ for the creators of TBPG, they compile Buddha Dharma shared by GM Lu, to ease access to more beings. If they do not expect rewards in any form, then they are actually doing Dharma Charity.

They will be rewarded whenever TBPG successfully helps someone, their karmic negatives will lessen and their merits will increased.
Ah! Yes!
Not personal monetary gains and also not boosts to their ego with GM Lu praising their efforts publicly!

Now:
If you used TBPG and it benefits you, or help you live a happier life and sharing that happiness around, you don't owe the creators for using their compilation.
However, if you think that you can access TBPG without paying back in anyway, then you actually increase your karmic debts!
Abuse of TBPG also increases your karmic negatives!

Remember all the dharma knowhow you have acquired so far, have to be applied in every instances of your life!

GM Lu said [sponsor at will] for various reasons though.
Think you can figure out some?
Hahaha!
