Question asked by Jigme Rabten
Hello dear Pastor!
Have a nice day to you.
I have some questions about sortilege or fortune sticks in chinese temple to seek for advices and instructions.
Do these kind of methods to seek for advices or instructions is accepted in Buddhist's teachings or good for Buddhist or taking refuges vows?
Myself as a Buddhist that i never seek advices or instructions from wordly gods or goddess in Chinese Culture but only taking refuges in Guru and Three Jewels.
So, when i seeked advices or instructions from these methods ( as i had said above) with my family that usually, i prefer them to visit Kuan Yin or Guan gong temple to seek for advices instead vist to other wordly gods chinese temple.
As i knew that Kuan Yin is actually enlightenment Buddha and therefore, It's safe to rely on Him.
As I knew also that Guan Gong also one of Gelug Dharma Protectors and some highly masters also promoted his practices even H.H Tenpai Nyima explaine he was one with Zhanglon Mahakala and Dzongtsen Shenpay and H.H Changkya Roipay Dorje clarify he is one with Begtse and a wisdom Dharma Protectors.
Thank you so much.
All these are mainly caused by human activities which harm the environment. It works in mysterious ways, sometimes which cannot be seen by the naked eye. Human has become selfish and is utilizing the earth’s resources at a instant rapid rate to enjoy privileges however forgotten on the effect of it in long run.
Earth is a privilege given to us by nature and it’s our responsibility to protect it . Our well
being solely depends on this. We should create awareness and start taking action to help our mother nature instead of looking for another earth. However, this is soon going to be our reality if we do not save the earth now.
