Metaphysics- HOW TO DETERMINE IF WE CAN RECITE FOR OTHERS

Metaphysics Q&A 110 – How to determine if we can recite for others

Q110: Hi Master Lu, how do we determine if we have enough spiritual power to perform recitations or perform the transferring of merits for others?

A110:

Saving people is a good deed. However, if you do not have enough spiritual power, then you may potentially become too involved. 

You should only help others if you have enough ability and spiritual power.
A person who has enough spiritual power to help others recite Little Houses generally should have the following characteristics:

Does not frequently have nightmares;

Does not feel fatigued or feel low in energy;

Generally has a smooth career and a good life; and
has good health and physical appearance, and is full of energy.

If you do not have the characteristics listed above, but instead, for an extended period of time, you have issues such as suffering from illness, having difficulties in life, having nightmares frequently, feeling cold constantly, and having too much “Yin” energy, then it would be best for you to recite Little Houses for yourself first before helping others.
If you have no choice but to help others recite Little Houses, then it would be best that you recite more Great Compassion Mantra (Ta Pei Chou) for yourself.
