EXTENSION OF LIFESPAN THROUGH RELEASING TURTLE

Wenda20170604B 34:49 
(Master Jun Hong Lu’s Call-In Radio Program)


Caller:  Hi Master Lu, last time, you mentioned that a Buddhist friend’s life was extended for three years after releasing 200 turtles.  I was amazed. Later we found out that he only releases large turtles, each weighing more than 1 KG or having the size of a small washing bowl. You used to mention that lifespan can be extended through releasing washing bowl-sized turtles.

Master Jun Hong Lu:  Releasing turtles in a smaller size will also help to extend lifespan.  The difference is that smaller turtles help to extend lifespan by days or months, i.e. one may live for a few more days or months, whereas bigger turtles will extend lifespan by several years.
