【A call for united strength and energy from True Buddha disciples worldwide!】
''Jade Pond Golden Mother Mantra'' chanting event dedicated to ''Buddha's health, longevity, and continuous residence in the world.''
With utmost sincerity, let us all unite as one our powers of mind, mantra, and prayer to chant the mantra of ''Golden Mother of the Jade Pond.''
Pray to Golden Mother of the Jade Pond, Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Dharma Protectors, Dragon Kings and Devas for the compassionate blessing and protection of Living Buddha Lian-sheng and for the ''Buddha's health, longevity, and continuous residence in the world.''
At the Padmakumara homa ceremony on November 29, 2014, Living Buddha Lian-sheng Sheng-yen Lu made a great vow that shook the heart of every listener!
At the age of 26, Golden Mother of the Jade Pond opened my divine eye. On that same night, my spirit travelled out of my body and all over the heavenly realms and the netherworld. In the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, not only did I (Grandmaster Lu) personally see ''Maha Twin Lotus Ponds'' but I also truly saw ''White Maha Padmakumara.'' Therefore, as long as you have faith and never fall back, I guarantee that your cultivation practice will definitely lead to accomplishment.
After returning to Taiwan I started coughing the very next day. I prayed to Golden Mother but I still hadn't recovered right up to the present moment. In any case, although I wasn't feeling well, my cough stopped as soon as I took the dharma seat. I'm still radiating and making my dharma speech. So, no matter what, Grandmaster never takes a day off. Grandmaster must be present in the dharma seat, must conduct a perfect fire offering, must bless everyone, and must cure sentient beings' illnesses before tending to my own wellness!
I pray to ''Jade Pond Golden Mother,'' ''Amitabha'' and ''Ksitigarbha'' that all sentient beings will be purified and all their karma transferred to me. I will take on myself all the karma of True Buddha disciples so that their suffering from illness will be eradicated and their bad karma will be completely removed. Let the fire of the homa completely purify them so every one of them will possess endless joy, purity, and happiness every time after they attend a ceremony.
As the Guru of the disciples, I am willing to take on all of their karma. Grandmaster is willing to accompany all of the True Buddha School students and enable them to ascend to ''Maha Twin Lotus Ponds.'' Grandmaster will purify the remaining karma of each and every one!
It goes without saying that the founder of a religion will encounter countless difficulties and must work with extreme diligence.
Every day for the past 40 years Grandmaster has cultivated truly and with extreme diligence. Every day I write literary works, pray for sentient beings, and remove the karma of sentient beings. This is what ''True'' is! This is how a ''True'' guru should be!
Out of the spirit of sacrifice Grandmaster will enable all of his disciples to ascend to ''Maha Twin Lotus Ponds'' first! Grandmaster will be the last one to ascend to ''Maha Twin Lotus Ponds.''
As soon as Grandmaster said these words every attendee was immediately and deeply touched. Grandmaster's heartfelt and moving dharma talk and great compassion caused every disciple's eyes to become red and brim with tears of gratitude. Grandmaster never hides himself. If he is physically uncomfortable he will let you know because this is ''true.'' Grandmaster says, The ''True Buddha School'' is precious because of the word ''True.'' I am a child and children are ''true and authentic'' and this is what is most valuable in the world!''
With incomparable caring, Grandmaster deeply loves and protects every sentient being. Hence, the ''True Buddha Foundation'' is calling on all True Buddha disciples to demonstrate the same amount of love with your voices calling out to ''Golden Mother of the Jade Pond,'' and chant the ''Golden Mother of the Jade Pond Mantra:'' Om, jin-mu-sid-dhi, hum. This will be the Chanting Dedication Event.
Let us protect Grandmaster with this mantra chanting. Let us pray together with our united, single-minded power to Jade Pond Golden Mother, Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Dharma Protectors, Dragon Kings and Devas for the compassionate blessing and protection of Living Buddha Lian-sheng and for the ''Buddha's health, longevity, and continuous living in the world!''
