WORDS OF THE FOUNDER
|
|
|
|
"A reporter once asked me why I loved writing. I replied, because words are never-ending and can act as a mental nutrition for propagating the Dharma. Words can be passed on even when humans die. If a person is inspired by some words, their good impression of Buddhism lasts this liftetime, and may even be passed onto the next life. Through words, people of different eras or regions can learn about the magnificent teachings of the Buddha. Even as time passes, whether it be thousands of years on, sentient beings on this planet, or even other planets, would be able to realize Buddhist wisdom through words." ─ Venerable Master Hsing Yun
