Gateway To Infinite Dharma Treasure: The Secret Formulas of Sheng-yen Lu
No one can avoid death. Fame, status, power and beauty all change ownership at the moment of death. Where there is life, there must be death. This is the immutable, universal truth. Life is merely a drama playing out. A practitioner should observe the drama as a bystander. No matter what happens in the drama, one should constantly remain a bystander.When one reviews one's own life from birth to death, is it not a drama? One must aweken from this drama. By always observing as a bystander, one will attain realization.
