A very good thread.
Looking at Buddha or Bodhisattvas makes one feel calm, at
ease.
In Amitabha's Western Paradise of Ultimate Bliss, all living and
non-living things serve many purposes; one main purpose to remind
and encourage everyone to Nian fo (Contemplate the Buddha nature,
which is perfect wisdom and compassion), Nian fa (Contemplate on
the Buddha's teachings of 'Emptiness' and buddha nature), and Nian
Seng (Contemplate on the Precepts observed by all Buddhist
followers, be it the ordained or lay man).
May all who get to see even one Buddha or Bodhisattva's image here,
one day be able to have their last rebirth at the Western Paradise
of Ultimate Bliss.
May the merits of all who participated or contributed in any way to
the start and maintenance of, and/or adding helpful comments to
this thread, be shared with all sentient beings. May all be able to
gain early salvation and deliverance by Amitabha Buddha to His
Buddha Land in this lifetime or future lifetimes, whichever is
earlier.
Amituofo.
