Buddhist-Meditation-Systematic-and-Practical

Dharmakaya is found in freedom from sorrows and false
views.
It is nine o'clock, three hours had sped by from our
beginning. We have finished and prepared to depart.
We had, this evening, noted an outline of the
general terminology to be used but were sorry to
have disturbed Mr. Chen's routine by staying so
long. Normally from seven to eight in the evening he
practices the Mantra-recitation of the Buddha
Amitabha, this out of gratitude to all the countless
parents he has had in different lives, following
which he does the pujas of his many protectors,
reciting their mantras to act as a safeguard in the
hours of the night.
As we returned with brisk steps to our vihara,
carrying another chapter containing the fruits of
practice, we think of Mr. Chen returning to his
meditations, which (as he has written in a letter) are
performed out of compassion; he is devoted to the
good "of all sentient beings, as in different births
they have all been our parents. May they receive the
Buddhas' Teaching of Meditation and practice it!
May they get Full Enlightenment before us!"
