The 《 FILIAL PIETY SUTRA 》was translated into Chinese from Sanskrit By KUMARAJIVA .

Thus I have heard, at one time, the Buddha dwelt at Shravasti, in the Jeta Grove, in the Garden of the Benefactor of Orphans and the Solitary , together with a gathering of great Bhikshus, twelve hundred fifty in all, and with all of the Bodhisattvas, thirty-eight thousand in all.

At that time, the World Honored One led the great assembly on a walk toward the south. Suddenly they came upon a pile of bones beside the road. The World Honored One turned to face them, placed his five limbs on the ground, and bowed respectfully.

Ananda put his palms together and asked the World Honored One, " The Tathagatha is the Great Teacher of the Triple Realm and the compassionate father of beings of the four kinds of births. He has the respect and reverence of the entire assembly. What is the reason that he now bows to a pile of dried bones ? "

Π. The Heart Sutra------Translated into Chinese from Sanskrit by HSUAN TSANG The both books that was Trenslated into English from Chinese Version by UPASAKA LU KUAN-YU . ( CHARLES LUK )

《 THE DIAMOND SUTRA 》------Thus have I heard. Once upon a time, the Buddha sojourned in the Jetavana park near Srevasti with an assembly of twelve hundred and fifty bhiksus.

One day, at mealtime, the World Honoured One put on His robe, took His bowl, and entered the great town of Sravasti to beg for His food. After He had begged from door to door, He returned to His place. When He had taken His meal, He put away His robe and bowl, washed His feet, arranged His seat and sat down.

At the time, the elder Subhuti who was in the assembly, rose from his seat, uncovered his right shoulder, knelt upon his right knee, respectfully joined the palms of his hands and said to the Buddha : " It is very rare, O World Honoured One ! How well the Tathagata protects and thinks of all Bodhisattvas; how well He instructs all the Bodhisattvas. "

" O World Honoured One, when virtuous men or women develop the supreme-enlightenment mind.....

《 THE HEART SUTRA 》------When Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara practised the profound Prajna-paramita, he investigated and perceived that the five aggregates ( skandhas ) were non-existent thus securing his deliverance from all distress and sufferings.

Sariputra ! Form ( rupa ) does not differ from the void ( sunya ), nor the void from form. Form is identical with void (and) void is identical with form . So also are reception (vedana), conception (sanjna), mental function (samskara) and consciousness (vijnana) in relation to the void.

6] Title : 《 The Letter from Home 》( 皇申家書 )--(英文)

PRICE (Fix) S $ 5.10

INTRODUCTION ( 內容介紹 )：

What is the " Home "? That is the Home of souls is the destination for a person to return to the root; the Homeland of souls is the origin for a person to restore Life ; the word Faith means to be truthful. Thus, there is an ancient proverb " Faith is the origin of Tao, virtues, and merits. "

This book 《 The Letter from Home 》is the path of returning Home. The key secret of returning Home and restoring the True Self in the human body is the Right Portal.

The formless and shapeless True Self and the physical body are of no difference . Nowadays, few of the followers of the three great religions really comprehend this Truth. The essence of the three religions is verbally passed on from one Patriarch to the next and is continued without alteration. Since the genesis, Tao is passed on in single heritage; this is why the ancient Sages and scholars could excel in only one segment, and among numerous factions, none has this essence.

INTRODUCTION ( 內容介紹 )： It is very important for grateful to the grace of Heaven , virtues of Holy Teachers .
However , not many of the Dao receivers are true cultivators . Why ? Some cannot really understand Dao; they cannot realize the true essence. Some encounter difficulties when cultivating but receive no help from any one .

Some fail to overcome obstacles when propagating Dao; they all need assistance. Others, without good spiritual foundation , retreat due to severe trials and frustrations .
All these various reasons make the journey of Dao receiving , cultivation , and accomplishment long and difficult to the extent that few cultivators succeed in reaching Buddhahood . All Buddhas are upset with this , to speak nothing of the Almighty God .

Now , Merciful Almighty God and compassionate Buddhas have been stepping to this secular world and channeling the Holy Mediums to give Holy revelations . In every Dao seminar , they preach and enlighten the confused pertinently , in spoken language or in written form . However, they teach and admonish the sentient beings so that they will be enlightened and build up the faith . Then they can cultivate and practice truly and diligently to regain the original nature .

It is very problematic about " Search for Truth " , Because The perceptions of truth that we each perceive the world from our different perspective , we tend to form opinions and conclusions about the nature of truth and reality . Thus people often argue about what is true or untrue .

We know the basis of science , of establishing truth , is empirical facts , which are facts that must be established by means of experimentation and physical evidence . If scientists cannot substantiate a fact through any physical means or scientific experiments or tests via hypothesis , it is considered to be untrue .

However , there is a problem in using such way of substantiation when it comes to the understanding of human spirituality , which is the very basis of what truth is about . It is extremely difficult and almost impossible to substantiate the existence of spirituality through empirical means . It is like trying to detect the existence of wind with a microscope or a telescope.

People with their different inclinations will perceive truth differently .To a person who is very materialistic, his perception of truth might be different . His version of reality is that one can only enjoy life by indulging in the pursuit of materialism. To a compulsive gambler, his reality is that one can only acquire wealth and be rich by taking chances. Because people can be so attached to their own points of view...
