You will hear all kinds of chanting in sound. You will see all kinds of Mudra in action. In fact, what you think, what you wish will be the same as those of the Buddhas. Your relatives, parents, brothers, sisters, and friends are all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Your surroundings, your home are the palace of Buddha. What you have is identical to those we could find in the Western Pure Land.

Mantra is the sound of Universe. This sound (knock the bell) is a mantra. When you lose your temper, when you quarrel with your spouse and throwing glasses, they are all mantra.

When I turn my body to the left and right to give this talk, my hand forms a mudra. It is a mudra because all movements are the expression of my will. Body, speech and will are the three mystics in Tantra. If we can embody the three mystics into one, you are enlightened. This is how Maha Tantra works.

 

●In the territory of truth, there is no enemy and ourselves.

The Maha Tantra is an endless Tantra. It is the truth of the universe. If you master the Tantra, you have the whole universe. That is why I claim to be a Vajrasattva today. (applause) If you already have the whole universe, what else do you want? The Tantra teaches us all our enemies, our foes, our rivals and those who slander us are Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.

There is a conviction in True Buddha School, that the sect does not have any enemy. (applause) The Tantra has it that within the six realms of existence, there is no evil person. All sentient beings are Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. We must thank them for their negative empowerment. Whether it is positive or otherwise, We must succour all of them. That is the ultimate aim of Maha Tantra.

You learn from the most fundamental -four basic rituals to the most profound Tantra when you take refuge in True Buddha School.

I have learned all these and obtained the lineage from the air and from other teachers. I must thank the lineage from the air, and the teachers who taught me. Moreover, I want to thank all the sentient beings, for without them my perfection will only be formless.

●You Cannot Falsify Truth, nor verify lies

The True Buddha Tantra is magnificient; and this can be vouched. We have achieved what others considered impossible.(applause)

Since time immemorial, we have not heard of dead convicts that have lots of unwholesome karma left behind sarira in their remains? We only heard of sarira from Shakyamuni Buddha, the eighty arhats, and the five hundred arhats. Of course, all Bodhisattvas and Grandmaster also have sarira remained.

You have read from True Buddha News and Flower Rain news that some of my disciples were cultivating True Buddha Tantra in the prison. They were Lian Hua Ah Lin,Qing Wen, Yi Sheng, Bao Sheng, Yu Xin. After their executions and cremations, Sarira were found in their remains.

This is a simple evidence to prove that they have their transmigrations to Western Paradise, to the Maha Double Lotus Pond. If they are reborn in Western Paradise, they must have been Buddhist of the right belief. (aplause) Then their Grandmaster must be a real Living Buddha.(applause)

If I am a fake Living Buddha, and the dharma is wrong, how can sarira be found in my disciples? Going through all these troubles just to prove that I am the real thing. For quite some time now people think I am evil, Padmakumara is fake, and True Buddha sect a heresy. 

I have thought for a while now, and I am not very sure. But if you cultivate True Buddha Tantra, you will have sarira, am I right to say so? (applause)

Shakyamuni Buddha had sarira, so have all the dead convicts. Aren't they the same as Shakyamuni Buddha? (applause)

What else is unbelievable? If you believe it, you will be enlightened. Christianity proclaims that faith is eternality, by that it means being reborn in the heaven realm and enjoying life there.

In Buddhism, we believe faith is non-rebirth. After your transmigration to the Western World, you will not be reborn in this world again.
