HOW TO OVERCOME FEAR AND NERVOUSNESS IN TIMES OF EMERGENCY

(Master Jun Hong Lu's call-in radio program)

Caller: Master Lu, we endeavour to apply what we have learned from ‘Buddhism in Plain Terms’ into our daily life but we still get overwhelmed by fear when faced with challenges. I would like to overcome such fear.

Master Jun Hong Lu: Recite the Heart Sutra (Xin Jing). A wise man is not afraid of anything. Why am I not afraid of anything? Because I have wisdom. Just like a little boy who tells his mother, “Mommy, mommy, something has gone wrong…” He is scared stiff because he does not know how to deal with a particular situation. Conversely, when you have wisdom, you will be able to handle everything.
