Zhu fu everyone,
Shi fu emphasized the importance of
opening our hearts. Stress is mainly caused by us living in a small, limited
world. Therefore, I must always repent, practice self-reflection, and continue
moving forward in life.
In order to practice 广修供养,
I need to do so according to my own capability and with sincerity. Shi fu
mentioned that we can even 供养 our clothes. In the
morning, I can offer clothing as a way to fill the space in my life with
positive intention.
This year during Qing Ming, when buying
flowers for my deceased ancestors, I carried a different feeling—representing all beings in making an offering. When offering
a lamp (供灯), it is to bring light to all beings. Only
after this lesson did I truly begin to understand the deeper meaning of 供花 and 供灯.
In this lesson, Shi fu also mentioned an important point: that after marriage, there may be obstacles affecting our practice of 供养, such as interference from one’s partner. Therefore, I feel it is important to discuss this topic with my partner before getting married.
【Great, just continue practicing 广修供养
as you have been. It's wonderful that you can share this with your partner so
you can both do it together.】
