He unbuttoned his pants and proceeded to shower urine on my head. He was indeed peeing on Sheng-yen Lu’s head!
After I exited from my meditation, I sensed deeply that this was a bad omen.
This was my third premonition.
I am an honest person by nature and trust others easily. Thus, I am also betrayed by others easily.
I give my all to others but am often taken advantage of.
In my thoughts, all people are good and kind. But in this human world, it is hard for people to avoid loving themselves more than others. Due to this self-grasping, they become steeped in greed, anger, and delusion. As spiritual cultivators, we must learn to love others more than ourselves. This is a generation of bodhicitta. Bodhicitta in aspiration, bodhicitta in action, relative bodhicitta and absolute bodhicitta. Although I am often betrayed by others, I do not bear any resentment. I just hope that they will understand my heart and transform their excessive self-love to love for sentient beings.
The identity of this Master XX of the aforementioned Leizang Temple should be quite obvious!
***
In the last several days, while meditating, I saw another Master XX clambering up to the top of my head. He stood up, lifted his red lama skirt, and proceeded to urinate on my head.
Wow! He was peeing on the Buddha’s head. Alas! Here comes another.
I hope the noble students of True Buddha School will avoid committing the downfalls in the Fourteen Tantric Root Downfalls and practice the devotion described in the Fifty Stanzas of Guru Devotion.
Read the precepts carefully and abide by them. Do not break the precepts and as a result fall interminably into the three lower realms.
Noble students, be careful! Be careful!
(The End)
