How to Encounter Proper Dharma Again

6/30/2015

 
Question:

Ven. Master:

The fact that I have encountered your Dharma and Great Master Xuan Hua’s is probably from prior conditions, is that correct? If I fail to get reborn to the Western Bliss Pure Land this lifetime, how do I make sure that I will be able to encounter again the Buddhadharma?

Please compassionately clarify the above for me.

Question:

Emituofo,
​

I gave birth to a child who died after six months. This time, I got pregnant and lost the fetus after seven weeks.

Renouncing Deviant Sex Precept

6/6/2015

 
Ven. Master,

I am a Buddhist disciple who also received the Five Precepts. Unfortunately, I have not been able to keep the Non-deviant Sex precept. ​

I simply cannot control my urges and frequently have sexual relations with others. Both sides seek sexual gratification, not love. I am still single. ​

Inquiring About Shurangama Mantra

6/4/2015

 
Question:

I received the Five precepts but often violated the Deviant Sex and Not Taking Intoxicants Precepts.am 24 years old. Initially, after a night of partying, it feels normal and satisfying.
​
However, after I learned about Buddhism I realized that I was creating offenses. Ever since then, every time I go out, I feel a little sad inside and also would feel guilty, especially whenever I look at the Buddha statues.
