Greetings
Venerable Master Chin Kung's Talk on SARS
" Someone asked me; what is SARS about? Well. it
is a result of unkind thoughts. Greed anger delusion and arrogance caused the
particles in
the air to become turbid arid virulent,
givng rise to virus. All laws are created from the
mind and virus is also created from the mind.
The best precaution therefore starts from the mind.
When the mind harbors greed, anger and
delusion; these thoughts are the deadliest virus. They turn the entire
external physical environment into poison. If the three negative
feelings are absent from within, how can virus
survive on the outside? Compassion can neutralize and
detox~~ poison. Hence the mind must
be pure and compassionate. Buddhists who are pure and
compassionate will not be infected. If
you got infected it is because your practice is not
yet effective. When the practice is effective, you will not get ill, grow old
or die.

There are some regions that are experiencing an
epidemic of SARS (Severe Acute
Respiratory Syndrome); the Chinese called this is a
plaque. Where does plaque come from?
All laws are created from the mind. From the mind
things are created, from consciousness
things are changed. This is the overall principle.
What frame of mind will give rise to this
plaque ? A mind that is not kind and actions that are
not kind. Unkind intentions will yield
unkind actions. The situation is the manifestation of
unkind retributions. If we can repent and
become kind? Cultivate pure actions, all unkind
retributions will disappear naturally.
People are aware that they must sever evilness
and cultivate goodness. However, they can not cut themselves off from vices
entirely and the
goodness that they cultivate is limited.
Hence, since thousands of years ago until now , there
has not been a year without plagues.
Every year plaques will appear. Plaques and infections
occur most frequently at the time before
and after the Tomb Sweeping Day (April). This time
there is no exception. The plaque will
last about one month. Very seldom it will last for two
months. Many students ask me how to
take precaution? The best precaution is to cultivate
purity and compassion. Purity and
compassion can neutralize all disasters. They can turn
the molecular arrangements of our
environment into beautiful crystal formations and
disaster will disappear as a result
We saw a report that when two bottles of water,
one labeled "love and thanks" and the
other labeled "hatred and disgusted" were placed in a
laboratory for a few hours, they yielded
very different forms of crystal arrangements as shown
by the photographs taken under a
microscope. How did the change occur? Different
thinking caused the changes. Love and
and thanks are good and positive thoughts of human.
Anger and hatred are negative thoughts. Actually
symbols that contain the thoughts of human.
Without thoughts the symbols are
empty and they will not be able to give rise to
changes. WHen characters were created, the
creators have given the characters meanings. Hence
when the characters are used, the symbols
are in consonant with our thinking and this thinking
is then transmitted to the water and the
water naturally changes accordingly. "
