THE REACTION TO RECITING THE EIGHTY-EIGHT BUDDHAS GREAT REPENTANCE RECITATION DIFFERS WITH VARIANT DEGREE OF KARMIC OBSTACLES

Wenda20160923 30:39 [Master Jun Hong Lu’s call-in radio program]

Caller: Why there are some who recite many times of the Eighty-eight Buddhas Great Repentance without the slightest reaction, while others who will start feeling uncomfortable and having dreams of many karmic creditors when they recite only a few times?

Master Jun Hong Lu: That’s because that person has a lot of karmic obstacles. For example, for a person who is free from any debts, when he says: “In future, should I owe others money, I will surely pay back”. In this case, as there is no one demanding any repayment from him, naturally he won’t feel any discomfort or guilt. On the contrary, when a person faces a group of creditors demanding repayments, even when he has just recited a few times saying: “I will be repaying my debts”. “Bang!” a group of creditors will dash forward. For sure he will feel uncomfortable immediately. It’s that simple.

Caller: For the second scenario, it is not advisable for them to recite too many? Should they slow down their pace in repenting of their mistakes?

Master Jun Hong Lu: That’s right.

Caller: The moment they “over-recite”, they will not be able to manage.

Master Jun Hong Lu: That’s for sure.
