Looking at 'the reflection of the moon on water', we can see that there is nothing there. Even that is dependently arisen, dependent on the existence of the moon and the water, on the ability of water to reflect. All of these things must come together to enable us to see the reflection of the moon on the water. That is emptiness. — His Holiness the 17th Karmapa To Amitabha reciters who have faith in the Buddha Dharma, my advice is to be more patient. You should know better regarding the meaning of life and the law of karma. Think of the people we have wronged and be repentant. Embrace all of life’s hardships with grace. Recite Amitabha’s name with inner peace and equanimity. Trust in Amitabha Buddha’s deliverance. — Master Jingzong
