True Buddha Foundation Taoist Practice No. 0001: 【Wealth Deity Invitation Method with a Treasure Bowl for the Gengzi Year】

Good! And even better!
Prosperous! And even more prosperous!
Revealing secret enrichment method for the Gengzi Year.
Dharma King Lian-sheng instructs perfect method to receive wealth!

Following a media interview on Jan. 9, 2020, at the True Buddha Foundation (TBF) office in Seattle, HH Dharma King Living Buddha Lian-sheng compassionately and personally transmitted in its entirety the Wealth Deity Invitation Method with a Treasure Bowl for the Gengzi Year. This practice is provided to circulate throughout the world so people may obtain both their regular income and private wealth just as they wish. Following is The Wealth Deity Invitation Method:
In the Year of the Rat, the wealth deity is in the west. This year also happens to have two lunar months of May and is represented by the color red. One should prepare a red treasure bowl to represent ordinary wealth.
The Year of the Rat is the Gengzi Year. The color black, of the northern direction, represents wealth and good fortune. One should prepare a piece of black cloth which one purifies at one's home shrine by passing it back and forth over three burning sticks of incense in the incense burner. Then, place the black cloth inside the treasure bowl to symbolize accumulation of private wealth.
Fill the bowl 80% full of white rice or white rice with the ''five grains (black, soy, yellow, white, green, red, etc., beans)'' to symbolize wealth endlessly increasing and multiplying.
Insert one or three sticks of incense into the bowl. Between 7AM - 9AM on the morning of the 1st, 2nd, 15th, or 16th day of the lunar New Year month, walk out the front door of one's residence carrying the treasure bowl with the lighted incense sticks. Take eight steps to the west, then shout three times ''Wealth deity come to my house!'' By doing this, the wealth deity will accept one's invitation into one's home. One then returns the treasure bowl to the wealth corner of one's house.
Note:
An empowerment is not required to perform this practice, so the practice may be performed by anyone. True Buddha School disciples may additionally recite the Guru Mantra 108 times along with reciting the True Buddha Sutra once or many times. Dedicate the merit to the swift fulfilment of one's wish for enrichment.
Whether one is able to receive the wealth deity's blessing through the performance of this practice depends on whether one is sincere and whether one has accumulated a store of good deeds. One who is negligent or evil should not perform this practice.
If one's residence is located so that one exits toward the east, or if the western direction is behind the house or in some other direction when exiting one's residence, one may take eight steps to the west from a location beyond the front door of one's residence while reciting, ''Wealth deity come to my house!'' (three times). The wealth deity will still come.
