How do I become Enlightened

How do I become Enlightened

Dear Ones,

In my book Tao II: The Way of Healing, Rejuvenation, Longevity, and Immortality, I introduced the Immortal Tao Text, which consists of 220 sacred phrases. Below I offer a teaching on three of these sacred phrases to prepare you for my upcoming Tao I-V Retreats. I will also lead you in a practice to purify your heart.

35. Chu Tan Chen Chi – Remove greed, anger, and lack of wisdom

“Chu” means remove. “Tan” means greed. “Chen” means anger. “Chi” means no intelligence to distinguish kindness from evil. “Chu tan chen chi” (pronounced choo tahn chun chr) means remove greed, anger, and lack of wisdom.

This is a typical Buddhist teaching. Although I am teaching Tao, at the highest level, Tao and Buddhist teaching are the same. I am just sharing the spiritual wisdom.

Greed has many facets. For example, there is greed for money, greed for power, greed for material possessions, and more. Greed is an extreme desire for something that can never be satisfied. Greed also includes being stingy. Stinginess means a person could have an abundance of something, but does not want to share any of it. In one sentence:

Greed is the source of all evil.

If a person is very greedy and cannot get what he or she wants, he or she could become angry.

Chi, which is lack of wisdom, means that one cannot distinguish between right and wrong or between kindness and evil. A person who lacks this wisdom will often think the wrong thing is a good thing, or think a good thing is a wrong thing. Such a person is very confused.

In order to transform greed, anger, and lack of wisdom, the key is to purify the heart. In Buddhist teaching, it is ming xin jian xing, enlighten your heart to see your true self. In Tao teaching, to purify and enlighten the heart is to see your Yuan Shen.

36. Xiu Miao Ming Xin – Purify and enlighten your heart

“Xiu” means Xiu Lian. Xiu Lian is purification. “Miao” means profound. “Ming” means enlighten. “Xin” means heart. “Xiu miao ming xin” (pronounced sheo mee-yow ming sheen) means purify and enlighten your heart.

Tao creates all things in all universes. Tao is quiet and calm. Tao is pure and profound. Tao has no attachment. Tao flows naturally. To study Tao and to purify the heart, it is very important to follow nature’s way.

will purify. The benefits are unlimited.

37. Wu Si Wei Gong – Serve others selflessly

 “Wu si” means no selfishness. “Wei gong” means for others. “Wu si wei gong” (pronounced woo sz way gawng) means serve others selflessly.

Karma is the root cause of success and failure in every aspect of life. People may ask, “How do I know if I have created bad karma?” or “How do I know if I have created good karma?” The answer is straightforward. You and everyone relates to the world in three ways, through:

• action—what you do

• speech—what you say

• thought—what you think

In one sentence:

If what you do, say, or think is only for you, you create bad karma; if what you do, say, or think is for others, you create good karma.

To have no selfishness is to avoid creating bad karma. To serve others selflessly is to create good karma. Discipline your actions, your words, and your thoughts. You will advance much faster on your spiritual journey and your physical journey.

With love and blessing,

Master Sha
