Dharma Q&A with Venerable Guan Cheng (Episode 15)

Dharma Q&A with Venerable Guan Cheng (Episode 15)

In this episode, the Venerable addressed the following questions,

  1. Even though, we work to know ourselves through meditation, what about losing oneself in a group or through dancing? Losing yourself in music or a group of people can also bring bliss. Is this bliss different from that from meditation?
  2. We spend our lives acquiring knowledge. It seems ironic that knowledge would cause us trouble, and how we have to let it go to achieve Nirvana.
  3. It appears that a simpleton has an upper hand in achieving Nirvana, since he's not able to think much or he's not pressing for worldly possessions.
  4. If we are to rid ourselves of all desires all the way to the point of knowing No-Dharma, then are we to rid ourselves of desires to attain Nirvana as well?
  5. It was mentioned that there should be no judgement in mind, yet, deciding whether an action is good or bad requires active judgement. What should be the guidelines for this judgement?
  6. Does sitting with bare feet facing the Buddha's statue show disrespect?
  7. Venerable, can the temple organize cooking lessons so that those interested can learn how to cook temple-style vegetarian dishes?
  8. A friend of mine who has been coming here for many years told me that, when he has to make a important decision, he always asks Buddha by shaking the bamboo sticks in one of the halls here, and he always got the right answer. What is your opinion about this?
