زندگی کردن در راه میانه، قسمت ۸ از ۱۰

Our mundane eyes can’t see the brightest (inner Heavenly) Light. Sometimes we must elevate our wisdom to see higher realms. Therefore, if I could show you, I’d have shown you already. No need to talk so much about it. Troublesome. When Shakyamuni Buddha was alive, He had Light. When we paint His pictures now, He is still very bright. But when He was alive, how many people could see His Light? If they could have seen it, the whole of India would have followed Him and been initiated by Him. Why would anyone still have wanted to kill Him? Or debate with Him, or insult Him. Understand? OK. Same with Jesus Christ. There is also Light when we see Him in pictures.

That doesn’t need to change. But you have plenty of karma left over in the store, and that needs to be burnt away, so you don’t have to come back and reap that in the future. Also, I will teach you meditation to clear up some of the present heavy burdens, so your life is more comfortable. And also help you when you cannot carry it during this life. […]
