ing, we often hear words such as motivation, support, and eradicating suff erings be-
cause Buddhism teaches us to perform good deeds and to foster various kinds of good
karma for the people and the environment around us. The Buddha told us that everyone
of us has the Buddha nature; however, we need to perform goodness continuously to

benefit others and ourselves until we attain Buddhahood. The Four Universal Vows, the
Four Methods of Guidance, and the Six Perfections in Buddhism remind us to inject
more positive energy into our society, working and purifying the human’s heart and
mind, and building a peaceful society and a prosperous country. The Four Universal
Vows encourages us to aspire to liberate all sentient beings, to eradicate all suff erings,

and to master the immeasurable dharma doors in order to benefit all sentient beings and
fi nally attaining Buddhahood. The Four Methods of Guidance and the Six Perfections
additionally teach us various ways to give and offer our help to those in need, to benefi t

the public through kind words and actions; as well as to observe the precepts, be toler-
ant, diligent, and remain steadfast, whilst being guided by the wisdom of the Buddha

Dharma, continue to learn and benefit all sentient beings.
Right now, I would also like to call upon all Buddhist organisations, temples and
every devotee to work diligently together in the sectors of education and social welfare,
for the benefit of respective regions and people around us; let us all bring forth our

Bodhi mind together, perform altruistic Bodhisattva acts hand in hand for the harmony
and well-being of the society, thus creating Pure Land on Earth.
