Oregon Assembly

9/12/2011

 
Question:

Dear Master,

I have been planning to go to the one week retreat in Oregon with Master Heng Sure starting end of the month, and also combine that with a week or two at CTTB. Though recent spells of low energy and low motivation sometimes make me feel like not going, I do tend to think it would be a good thing to attend. I was wondering, do you have any opinion whether this would be a good retreat for me to go to?

Also, It seems the Medicine Master Buddha Plaque has been of some help for M [my girlfriend] already, as she has been hired to teach one course at CSULB again. Thanks to you, and of course to Medicine Master Buddha, for your support!

Reciting Sutras

9/1/2011

 
​Question:

Emituofo!

Master:

I am Buddhist but know very little about Buddhism. I used to go to the temple but rarely bowed to the Buddhas. I would look inside and half bowed to the images.
​
Two years ago, my mother was upset with work and committed suicide. The master who came to recite for her encouraged me to recite suttras. At first I recited the Earth Store Sutra. Then I recited the Lotus Sutra.
