Dharma King Living Buddha Lian-sheng extends his heartfelt appreciation for everyone's concern and merit dedication.
Shimu Lianxiang remarked ''This morning I could see that Grandmaster's foot has greatly improved. It's about 80% back to normal!
Once again I would like to thank everyone and ask everyone please continue to dedicate the merit to supplicating the Buddha to remain in the world, live long, and enjoy excellent health!''
Afterword:
I know everyone cares deeply about Grandmaster, and I appreciate everyone's concern. We disciples who attend Grandmaster all share this deep feeling and concern.
Grandmaster has been informed of everyone's warm regards and best wishes. In response, during his dharma discourse, Grandmaster expressed his appreciation and gratitude for all the kind regards and concern posted on the internet and for everyone's dedication of merit...
Despite our entreaties and even tearful pleas…the vow the Root Guru has taken to deliver sentient beings is absolutely unshakeable and immoveable!
Yesterday, on the dharma throne, Grandmaster discoursed that ''For a cultivator, 'bodhicitta' is something that must truly be put into action. When spreading dharma teachings one may choose to disregard one's own body!…''
After Grandmaster's teaching yesterday (Apr. 23, 2016) many messages and comments were posted on the internet expressing concern and sadness. Everyone was asking Grandmaster to get more rest and take good care of himself. The condition, beriberi, in Grandmaster's foot is fortunately much better today.
I informed Grandmaster of everyone's concerns and again personally asked him if he would be keeping today's dharma promotion schedule. Grandmaster still went ahead with today's schedule as usual…
Let me once again express appreciation to everyone. We will continue to fulfill our duty as Grandmaster's entourage by standing by him during the full course of his schedule. Please help us convey our gratitude to all dharma sisters and brothers. We thank everyone for their heartfelt love and protection of Grandmaster.
Let's Chant Together for Buddha to Stay in the World
