"Whatever spiritual messages we have today are left over by the ancient masters, and we owe to them a great deal. Whatever we know, even whatever little is leftover today, we owe it to all the great masters of the past. That's why, perhaps, people like to build temples, churches and mosques in order to remember the great masters, in order to express their gratitude to these great masters who risked everything for the sake of the well-being of the world. But, to build temples and churches is not enough. It's not enough that we are grateful to the masters, but we must make use of the messages that they left behind for us; because that was the purpose of their coming to this world, that is, to remind us of the Buddha nature (God nature), of the wisdom, of the Kingdom of God within ourselves, and that we must, by all means, use all our strength to find it.

Because the masters did not come here to enjoy the reverence, the respect, the worship of the worldly people, they came to make them also become masters, to remind them of their greatness within themselves. That's the purpose of the masters. The Buddha had said: I come to make you understand your Buddha nature. He said that the Buddha and the sentient beings are equal, there is no difference. Even if we believe the Buddhas, we still don't know what the Buddha nature is; because no one taught us, or maybe we have not tried enough to understand it ourselves. For the lucky people who have found it themselves, that is all right. For the majority of the people who have failed many times over the past, numerous lifetimes, it becomes more and more and more difficult each time.

Some of the clairvoyant persons who have their third-eye opened and have the gift of heavenly sight, they have seen that the world is full of old souls. That means, the people in this world have come back again, again and again to the same planet, in same the situations, same existence. It is because we have failed the first time to go back home, and we failed the second, the third, the fourth and for thousands of times, to remember where we came from. Because we have forgotten our Buddha nature doesn't mean we've lost it. We can still find it anytime. Hundreds of thousands, and millions of people in this world have already found their treasures, including myself. So can you."
