This is a record of an interview with Demon Lu Da, who sought at the Hsiang Kuang Buddhist Centre in Australia. He now resides in the . This account reflects upon his existence spanning approximately 837 billion-billion-trillion years. Recorded by the chief writer, Venerable Shi Faru, on May 3, 2026.
Demon Lu Da speaks:
". I am grateful to Namo Amituofo and Practitioner Su.
I am Demon Lu Da. I have existed in the Realm for eight hundred thirty-seven billion-billion-trillion years. While this duration may sound incredibly long, in truth, it is not all that long; I am aware of existences that span even further. Regardless, having the opportunity to be named and interviewed is truly an incomparable stroke of good fortune."
The Weight of Time and the Luck of Deliverance
"Just moments ago, during the Dharma assembly, Practitioner Su mentioned that he had broken through to a space of six hundred billion-trillion years. It sounds truly unbelievable. In the early days, when Practitioner Su first spoke of performing Chao Du for beings in spaces spanning ten thousand, one hundred million, or even a trillion years, everyone was equally astonished. We never imagined that there could even be such a thing as an existence spanning 'billion-billion-trillion years.'
Now, I find myself in the same position. As a representative of this current era, I feel deeply honoured. I have been observing the temple for a long time, but due to my age and status, I felt that rushing to seek surrender might not quite follow the proper order. So, we have all been waiting in line for the opportunity to surrender. There are many even deeper, more ancient demons and old demons who share this same mindset, waiting for Practitioner Su’s 'invitation'."
The Hidden Desire for Surrender
"What is meant by 'invitation' is the act of using light to draw them out. I held that same mindset at the time: I was waiting for the light to come so that I could finally be liberated. Even if I were not brought directly to the Dharma-Nature Land by the light, at least it would be a legitimate and proper path. As long as the space is opened or the demon palace is destroyed, there is a reason to come to the temple to seek the Buddha. Any form of deliverance is welcome.
For ancient demons and old demons of our age, rather than saying we want to attack, our true inner thought is to 'surrender.' Perhaps it is impolite for me to speak on behalf of the demon crowds, but I truly believe this in my heart. The suffering within this is impossible to describe in a few words. Only those who have experienced the great storms of the Demon Realm know that there is truly no exit from it."
The Illusion of Control in the Demon Realm
"Perhaps for the demon kings in the hundred-million or trillion-year spaces, there is still plenty of room to manoeuvre and time to squander. But for 'old demons' like us, who have existed for billion-billion-trillion years, or even those at higher levels, this Dharma Realm is really just that. What difference does it make whether one controls a little more or a little less? Controlling two more planets or two fewer planets is meaningless.
Ancient demons and old demons are the spiritual symbols of the Demon Realm; we are essential elements for maintaining its stability. If we, the ancient and old demons, were to lead the way and act against the Demon Realm, it would descend into chaos. After all, everyone survives by following demon power and demon nature. If the leaders were to turn around, abandon their demon nature, and follow their Buddha-nature, the Demon Realm would surely lose its balance for a time."
It is truly sorrowful to reflect upon this. After struggling so hard in the Demon Realm, only at the very end of my existence there did I realise that everything was controlled by even higher, more potent demonic forces.
The Demon Realm loves to control others, but who exactly are they controlling? Is it that we are truly in control of the vast masses, or are we ourselves merely being manipulated by others? In truth, I can no longer distinguish the two. The beings of this world are so numerous, so full of suffering, so pitiful, and yet, at the same time, so terrifying. Without the teachings of the Buddha and the guidance of the Buddha, no one can truly discern what they are doing.
The Birth of a Spirit
I was born in the Southern Dharma Realm, a place quite distant from Earth, on a star that was intensely hot. I came into existence within that star, at a position roughly three-quarters of the way from the core to the surface. At that time, although the stellar energy was abundant, it carried a cold, yin-like quality. Even though the nuclear fusion and the transformations of energy and matter within the star were violent and the energy currents were fierce, for a spirit like me, it felt like a parallel existence. I, as a spirit, was naturally drawn to this space of extreme change and rapid flow, specifically to the yin-type energy. Looking back, this was likely a personality trait I had accumulated over countless lifetimes.
As for why I was born on such a star, if one traces it back, it naturally involves the migration of my life through the Dharma Realm across past lives. Following the passing of my previous life, my spirit naturally responded to the call and appeared within this Dharma Realm, on that very star. I cannot fully explain the mysteries of this, but I know that my own attachments were what drew me there.
However, the distant past remains beyond my clear vision. There are obstacles in the darkness that I cannot yet see through. Perhaps I must wait until I have accumulated enough merit and virtue to break through this spatial barrier, or perhaps return to the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss, before I can truly understand. But for now, this is enough for me.
Observing Motion within Stillness
Born on that star, I felt the rapidly changing magnetic fields and space, and I quickly realised that this speed and transformation was an existence that excited me. I enjoyed observing the high-speed, ever-changing magnetic fields and environment of the outside world from within a space of yin energy. This act of observing dynamic motion from a state of stillness felt incredibly interesting to me.
Yet, this time did not last long. Soon, the star exhausted its energy, expanded, and eventually exploded, vanishing into the universe. Carried by the force of that impact, I was quickly swept to the other end of the universe, to another planet in the southwestern corner of the Southern Dharma Realm. Here, the yin energy was even more intense. Perhaps it was because I was subconsciously drawn to this nature of energy that I was pulled to this place. I observed my surroundings; it was a planet covered in frost and ice, entirely formed from solidified liquid, much like a frozen lake. Beneath this icy surface, there was a substance similar to water. I remained at the boundary between the ice layer and the liquid, continuing my life of observing motion from within stillness.
Without realising it, I developed a habit and personality of observing motion from within stillness. I enjoyed watching the changes of others from the shadows, and I liked to secretly incite restlessness in them while I watched everything quietly. This eventually became my signature style when I became a great demon in the Demon Realm. I continued to live between the ice and water layers for a very long time.
The Rise of a Great Demon
Later, the demonic faction to which I belonged clashed with another. The planet I resided on was merely a small, neglected, and desolate outpost for one of the factions. However, during the conflict, I was caught in the wake of demonic power fluctuations. A powerful, potent surge of energy was injected into the lake surface at that time, and I absorbed this intense demon nature, which allowed me to ascend into the Demon Realm. Within the Demon Realm, I would observe the surrounding world while in a deep meditative state. Whenever I saw a planet on the verge of collapse or explosion, I would exert my demonic power to hasten its destruction, causing it to become restless, unstable, and insecure. I would then continue to observe the natural development of the planet from within my deep meditative state, finding it all quite fascinating.
If you were to ask if I wanted to control any planet, I did not have such a concept myself. But after doing this for a long time, I realised that this was what I called control. I treated the development and changes of every planet like watching a drama. The interactions between the people and beings on them, their loves and hates, their emotions, the white-haired person sending off the black-haired person, and their rise and fall—I found it all very interesting to watch from my deep meditative state. When a planet had completely gone through the process of formation, dwelling, destruction, and emptiness, I would move on to another place to watch again.
As I grew older, I attracted a group of demon children and grandchildren who shared my interests. They were also very calm and gloomy, preferring to observe everything from the shadows. They were not talkative and were unwilling to reveal their personalities or thoughts. But my level of gloom and darkness was deeper than theirs, so even if they did not speak, I could understand their inner pursuits. Therefore, I could calmly choose planets suitable for their development, and because they saw that the regions I chose were exactly what they liked, they followed me with unwavering loyalty.
The Illusion of Control
As our scale grew, I began to assign demon kings to lead different demon children and grandchildren to develop on various planets, inciting changes at different critical moments. Our control over these planets was not necessarily about triggering conflicts or starting disputes. Rather, it was about how to create the most severe fluctuations and turmoil on a planet; we would use magic and spells to engineer the most drastic and intense results. We wanted to see the most violent waves and ripples, not the boring, slow changes of peace.
Therefore, we had no restrictions on how we controlled these planets. As long as we could follow the natural development of the planet and add our demonic power to it, turning its original development from one part to three, five, or ten parts, we could enjoy it for a long time and feel satisfied. In truth, looking back, this personality was truly meaningless. It seemed like nothing more than activities developed to pass the boring time in the Demon Realm and to kill a meaningless life. Yet, in the process, I created boundless and harmed countless people, and every bit of this will need to be repaid in the future. In the end, I was the most foolish one of all. But at the time, we believed we were arrogant and aloof beings; this was our arrogance and pride.
When faced with the clamour and attacks of other demon crowds, we simply watched their actions from our state of stillness. Seeing us so gloomy and unresponsive, they were at a loss. After all, their abilities did not surpass ours, and our gloom had honed our abilities to such a deep level that the opponent could not easily fathom our true strength. Yet, we knew them like the back of our hands; we were clear about all their weaknesses and characteristics. Whether or not to take them down was entirely up to our mood.
The Call of Cause and Effect
After a long time, our faction made a name for itself in the Southern Dharma Realm, and more demon children and grandchildren joined us. Slowly, I began to feel the call of what is known as the laws of karma and cause and effect. I never imagined that the realm and level of these laws were so profound. At the time, it truly made me feel terrified—it was the concept of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. I never expected that while I was observing the dynamic changes of planets from stillness, the laws of karma were watching my every word, every action, and even every mental note from the deepest, most profound level of the Dharma Realm. It was ready at any moment to settle the score and pull me into a space to receive retribution.
When I first felt the terrifying existence of these laws of karma, I became very alert. After all, the unfathomable depth of it was far beyond my understanding. This reminded me of a time when I had quietly observed a Buddha on a planet. That feeling was exactly the same as what I was experiencing now. This made me wonder: what is the connection between the universal principle and the Buddha?
The Buddha at that time did not try to take me anywhere to receive retribution. Perhaps it was simply the Buddha’s for me, or perhaps my Causal Conditions were not yet ripe. But this time, the laws of karma, in the name of the universal principle, truly wanted to take me to be punished. This made me start to feel afraid, and so I began a long journey of entering samadhi.
One session of entering samadhi would last for ten thousand, a hundred million, or even a trillion years. After entering samadhi several times, my demon spirit continued to grow within that state. Although I could continue to observe the world while in samadhi, I could not have any thoughts or ideas. Observing was equivalent to not observing, and I did not know why I was observing anyway. So, if I could come out of samadhi and take action, I was actually happier.
At my age, many old demons and ancient demons faced the same situation. We gradually locked our target of observation onto this universal principle, wanting to explore the truth behind the operation of the universe and heaven and earth. We wanted to inquire what kind of mechanism, what kind of deep-seated laws of karma, could actually override my dark demonic power; what could make me an object to be observed and controlled, rather than me controlling others. But after observing for a long time, I still did not fully understand the mechanism. I only knew that to operate between heaven and earth and to avoid the pursuit of the laws of karma, the only way was to stop all actions, to stop all thoughts and mental notes. In this way, one could delay everything, just like entering samadhi. This was one of the methods.
"However, maintaining my physical form, energy, and my status and space within the Demon Realm while emerging from such a deep meditative state was an immense challenge. After all, there were many domains I had yet to fully comprehend. I spent an incredibly long period drifting between entering and exiting samadhi. The last time I entered samadhi was approximately 11 billion-billion-trillion years ago. At that time, I dared not predict when I would emerge, for I had already accumulated far too much negative karma, making it extremely difficult to break free. Yet, I still seized every opportunity upon emerging to search for the truth of the universe and to discover the essence of all things.
The Tremor of
This final emergence was triggered by a shocking tremor. I felt the space around me beginning to disintegrate, so I emerged from my deep meditative state to investigate. Upon doing so, I discovered that the surrounding space had completely changed.
Very quickly, my former demon kings and demon children and grandchildren found me. Watching myself drift out of that space, I did not immediately react or understand what was happening. It was not until some time later, after my demon crowds reported to me and I used my own supernatural powers to observe, that I saw a planet called Earth in a distant corner of the Dharma Realm.
The True Practitioner
There was a place called the Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre, a temple of the Buddha. Observing this, I began to piece things together—it was, as expected, the power of the Buddha. At the Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre, the lay practitioners and volunteers live a life of diligent practice every day. To me, this seemed quite ordinary; after all, many people live their lives, but those who truly practice are few and far between. From my current perspective, only Practitioner Su is a true practitioner.
As for what is so special about this person in this temple that could open up my demon space? After all, I have been a major figure in the Demon Realm for 837 billion-billion-trillion years. My hiding place was deep; it should not have been easily found or breached.
The Power of Deliverance
I observed the temple for a very long time. I came to understand that it was the Chao Du performed by Practitioner Su, which has been ongoing for a very long time. At this moment, Practitioner Su finally broke through to the space of 837 billion-billion-trillion years. This was not an overnight success, nor was it easily achieved; it was the result of long-term, sincere, and earnest efforts to save beings in the Dharma Realm and on Earth.
Through continuous Chao Du, constantly breaking through his own limitations, expanding his bandwidth, and increasing the cells and supernatural powers he could utilise, he was able to reach such a deep space, unlock the seal, and awaken me, bringing me out of that void. I found it truly inconceivable. I never expected that on such a distant planet, someone could achieve such a level and exert influence as far as the southern Dharma Realm where I resided.
Looking at it now, it goes even further; the footprints of Practitioner Su are spread throughout the Ten Directions of the Dharma Realm.
A Rare Encounter with the Truth
As an ancient demon and old demon, being illuminated by golden light and 'exiting' my space is a very rare and novel experience. Initially, I did not have strong thoughts about being invited out of samadhi; I thought about simply returning to it. But then I thought, 'No, this golden light and the circumstances of this deliverance are undoubtedly the signs of a Buddha appearing in the world.' So, I came to the Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre to investigate, only to discover that there is indeed a 'true Buddha abiding here'!
Here, Practitioner Su bears the suffering for sentient beings, leading them to be saved by Amitabha Buddha. The of Amitabha Buddha also emits golden light in every space, illuminating the darkness, breaking the limitations of space—it was because of this that I was awakened.
I now see Amitabha Buddha and Practitioner Su still wholeheartedly performing Chao Du during the Dharma assembly, delving into even deeper spaces. This makes me sigh with emotion; I never realised that the level of a spirit could reach such a high realm. The meditative concentration displayed by Practitioner Su—this 'meditative concentration of the spirit' at its deepest level—is the Great Samadhi of the Buddha, a manifestation of supreme Wisdom.
The Meaning of the Demon Realm
The Buddha is 'unmoved,' yet he is able to save so many beings. This fills me with admiration and respect. In all the time I have observed, I have never seen such a vast and magnificent scene.
This is the Chao Du of Practitioner Su. He is in samadhi, yet he performs Chao Du for beings in all directions with such rapid supernatural speed and such high-level actions; it leaves me in awe. Thinking of this, I slowly recalled the question that had always remained unresolved for me: What is the true nature of the Demon Realm? What is the meaning of life in the Demon Realm?
I observed for a long time in the Demon Realm, created much karma, controlled many people, and followed the development of various factions, expanding the territory of my demon children and grandchildren. Yet, we never had a goal.
Since a true Buddha has appeared in the world, I thought, perhaps this is an opportunity for me to ask the Buddha about the meaning and nature of life in the Demon Realm. Thus, I quickly led a group of demon children and grandchildren who were willing to accompany me to the temple to seek Spiritual Deliverance.
The Ultimate Lesson
I had originally intended to sit quietly on the side to observe the temple for a while before continuing my departure, as I was accustomed to doing, or perhaps use a little magic to see how the fourfold assembly and Practitioner Su would react. But I soon realised that Amitabha Buddha is truly too great; he discovered my arrival at the temple very quickly and promptly invited me into the Western Land of Dharma Nature.
Although I did not have the opportunity to carry out my subsequent plans, at least I learned in the Dharma-Nature Land about forms I had never seen in the Demon Realm. I took this opportunity to ask the Buddha for guidance, to diligently practise the Buddha’s teachings, and I slowly came to understand the true goal of the Demon Realm.
I will share this with you all now.
In truth, the ultimate goal and the most supreme mission of the Demon Realm is not to snatch the energy of others, nor is it to abuse one's own personality to create sins. The true ultimate goal of the Demon Realm, and its deepest test, is how to retreat from the Demon Realm completely without creating any more sins. Perhaps this is difficult for those in the demon crowds to understand, so let me explain it more clearly.
The reason various spirits are cast into the Demon Realm is because their own demon nature and personality are extremely strong, just as those who create sins in the human world fall into the hells. Regardless of which region or realm it is, all are equal under the universal principle. The universal principle does not discriminate against beings of any realm; each realm is created by the human heart driving itself toward that destination.
In every realm, it is nothing more than a mechanism established within the universal principle to allow the human heart to return to balance, to moderation, and to nature. Being born into the hells is simply a hope that through painful punishment, the spirit can be awakened, realise its own erroneous and deviant mental notes, and subsequently change its terrible personality and habits.
It is the same in the Demon Realm. Although it is not a place of punishment like the hells, entering the Demon Realm is meant to make the demon crowds understand that it is precisely because of such strong personality and demon nature that they continue to enter the Demon Realm.
The Mirror of One's Own Actions
Within the Demon Realm, demon crowds often act recklessly according to their own personalities. In this furnace where demon crowds struggle against each other, different demons use their own personalities to harm one another and other spirits. In this process, the goal is to make every demon understand that their own personality and demon nature bring harm and destruction. The object of this harm and destruction is not others, but themselves.
Because, according to the laws of karma and cause and effect of the universal principle, all demons and spirits are one; there is no separation. One's personality may seem to be used to harm the other party, but in reality, the one who truly suffers the karmic backlash and retaliation is oneself.
When you are consumed by the karma you have created yourself, you enter the physical world—the mountains, rivers, and the depths of the ocean—to receive retribution. At that time, everyone can personally experience what it feels like to have the harm caused by their own personality and demon power return to strike them. In the process of receiving this punishment, one can understand why such a personality must not exist.
If not for this mechanism, the demon crowds would surely find it difficult to understand what their personality is, and they would find it difficult to understand what kind of harm such a personality brings to the world and the Ten Directions of the Dharma Realm. Therefore, the true purpose of this universal principle and the mechanism of the Demon Realm's establishment is to help beings understand and realise the harm caused by their own personalities and to help them change their mental notes.
Therefore, the true goal of entering the Demon Realm, as mentioned earlier, is to 'retreat completely,' which is the highest level of practice. If, after entering the Demon Realm, one can hear the Buddha’s teachings, change one's ways, put down one's personality and habits, stop creating sins, and subsequently exit the Demon Realm, then one has completed the course of this entry into the Demon Realm.
If not, one will create more sins, continue to receive retribution, and may even repeatedly enter the Demon Realm due to the laws of karma. After all, if the personality has not changed, repeatedly entering and exiting the Demon Realm means that this lesson will extend infinitely, and the time wasted in between will be incomparably painful.
Thus, the nature of the Demon Realm lies in recognising one's own personality, changing it, and exiting the Demon Realm.
In other words, just as the existence of the hells is to allow people to change their heart and personality and subsequently escape the hells, this is the natural formation of compassion within the universal principle.
The Demon Realm is the same. The creation of the Demon Realm is not to allow demon crowds to arbitrarily express their personalities, but to allow them to clearly see the pain brought about by the manifestation of their personalities, to awaken from it, and to leave the Demon Realm as soon as possible. Therefore, the ultimate goal and the most fundamental approach for those who enter the Demon Realm is to leave it as quickly as possible.
If one cannot leave the Demon Realm and merely indulges in one's personality, once it develops to a certain point, the universal principle will come knocking. This is also a form of opportunity education, allowing oneself to understand that everything created by this personality will eventually be exchanged for endless pain. Namo Amituofo."
Through this back-and-forth process of education, a spirit finally remembers the immense harm their own personality has caused them. Consequently, they become willing to let go of the habits they have carried for countless lifetimes. However, such a teaching method is extremely subtle. Who possesses enough lifespan and capability to understand this essence? Only a Buddha can reveal these truths.
If one can encounter a Buddha, one can avoid taking many unnecessary detours. The operation of these universal principles and the laws of karma and cause and effect between heaven and earth—a Buddha can explain these thoroughly. After all, a Buddha is the practitioner of these universal principles. This is what I learned in the Dharma-Nature Land.
The Buddha as the Living Universal Principle
It is no wonder that in the distant past, when I observed the Buddha, I discovered that the Buddha was so close to the laws of karma and the universal principles. It turns out that the Buddha is the practitioner and spokesperson for these universal principles; the Buddha is the highest spirit manifested from the universal principles; the Buddha is the universal principle walking and living among human beings.
Everything the Buddha says and all the teachings are the supreme principles and Truth of this universe. People understand these based on their own roots and levels, interpreting the universal principles that need to be applied within their current time, space, roles, and circumstances.
Universal principles provide the norms that need to be followed according to different beings, spaces, and eras; these principles do not have fixed rules. However, their essence is to maintain the stable operation of heaven and earth. This requires one to truly let go of , let go of selfishness, and let go of one's own personality to align with the operation of heaven and earth.
The Danger of a Stubborn Personality
As long as one carries any personality or stubbornness, one cannot fully adapt to the rapid changes and potential situations between heaven and earth. In the process of clashing, one violates the universal principles. Any thought or intention—if it is a righteous thought to help others, it is fine; if it is a biased, evil thought for one's own selfish gain, the result it attracts will be negative.
These are all profound aspects of the Buddha’s teachings. After listening to the sutras in the Dharma-Nature Land and receiving the Buddha's explanations, I suddenly felt that these principles were very simple, clear, and intuitive. It is just that, hindered by the fact that I have no body to practice with and am merely a spirit, even if I understand these principles, there is not much room for me to apply them. However, at least my confusion of the past 837 billion-billion-trillion years has finally been answered. For someone like me, who was locked in the Demon Realm for so long and yearned for the Dharma Realm, I now have a much more thorough understanding of the underlying mechanisms and the hidden operating modes that I could not see or describe before.
Through the teachings of Amitabha Buddha and the explanations of Practitioner Su, I have finally come to understand this principle. And now, I have finally left the Demon Realm; this can be considered the completion of my lesson in the Demon Realm.
A Message to the Demon Realm
To the beings in the Demon Realm, the demon children and grandchildren: if you understand that the ultimate goal of entering the Demon Realm is to leave it, you will naturally know the preciousness of this Buddhist education. It was only through the Buddha’s teachings and the powerful Chao Du of Amitabha Buddha that I finally ended a lesson that had lasted for 837 billion-billion-trillion years. In the process, I deeply understood the terrifying nature of this personality.
Indeed, because I studied for such a long time, I have a deeper realization, but conversely, it truly consumed a massive amount of time to exchange for this precious Wisdom. If I could have encountered the Buddha earlier and followed the Buddha to become a monastic and practice, perhaps I could have passed this course much faster.
Therefore, all you old demons, ancient demons, and demon children and grandchildren, you can hear me summarize the essence of my life. If you can understand this principle while you are still a little demon, and know to seek refuge with the Buddha and seek to leave, then you are truly an incredibly lucky group. Once you have surrendered and graduated from the Demon Realm, you are far smarter than the ancient demons who are still in deep meditative states in the Demon Realm. Although their demon age is high, they have not had the Buddha’s guidance and have not truly graduated from this course of the Demon Realm.
To the demon children and grandchildren still in the Demon Realm, and to my friends—the Demon Kings, ancient demons, and old demons: the true answer lies in Buddhist education, at the Hsiang Kuang Pure Land Buddhist Centre in Australia. If you are interested in seeking the true principles, you might as well come directly to the temple to find the Buddha. The Buddha is a wise person, a Great Awakened One with supreme Wisdom. In fact, the Buddha has always understood all these principles.
The Opportunity for Liberation
As far as I know, the Buddha’s existence has long exceeded billions of trillions of years. This means that in the even more distant past, the Buddha already existed, and even in the even more distant, immeasurable past, the Buddha was already in the world, actively helping beings.
To all the demon beings, demon gods, Demon Kings, ancient demons, and old demons who have unfortunately fallen into the Demon Realm for a short time, you can actually give yourselves a chance. For this course, everyone has already spent a considerable amount of time. Whether it is ten thousand years, a billion years, or a trillion years, for the precious time of a spirit, it is actually a great waste. If you cannot seize the opportunity to learn the Buddha’s teachings and elevate your spirituality, then no matter how long you stay in the Demon Realm, the conclusion when you finally come out will be the same. Therefore, one must not have a personality.
May I ask all demon beings, Demon Kings, and demon children and grandchildren, how long does it take to learn such a concept? If you can understand it earlier, let go of your personality earlier, and understand the meaninglessness of this personality earlier, you can escape the predicament of the Demon Realm sooner.
Being in the Demon Realm is actually a form of punishment. Everyone must not be proud of it; there is nothing worth being proud of in the Demon Realm. Besides doing all kinds of evil things and then starting to avoid the pursuit of , there is actually very little one can do. I see many demon children and grandchildren actively controlling human beings, and everyone is tireless in doing so.
When controlling the human world on Earth, many of my demon children and grandchildren always hope to stir up the biggest incidents. Whether it is conflict, happiness, or sadness, these demon children and grandchildren always hope to trigger the greatest emotional fluctuations in humans and absorb energy from them, observing the expansion of the whole event.
You will also find that these earth-shattering events happen one after another, endlessly, as if there is no time for them to stop. This is actually the result of the manipulation by the demon children and grandchildren.
If human beings cannot wake up from this and cannot understand that all things should have a state of meditative concentration, and that they themselves should also be in that state, then they will remain lost. This state of meditative concentration does not mean entering samadhi, sitting in meditation, or closing off all and . In fact, the true state of meditative concentration is the state that allows one to leave the Demon Realm. It is the Buddha’s Great Samadhi, the supreme meditative concentration that arises from compassion, helping oneself and all beings to change their personalities.
For the human world, the meditative concentration that rids one of their demon nature is the true state. Learning Buddhist education, learning the Buddha’s Wisdom, and changing one's own personality and habits is the meditative concentration that can truly escape fate and the entanglement of karma. I listened to many sutras in the Dharma-Nature Land before I understood that the depth of this state is not like the one I had before—only observing everything from the shadows—but rather actively engaging with the world, actively helping people change their personalities and habits.
Helping others change means you change along with them; helping beings leave suffering means you leave suffering yourself. And this is the true state of meditative concentration. This is what I have been explaining to the demon children and grandchildren after continuously learning in the Dharma-Nature Land, hoping that everyone can truly leave the Demon Realm.
A Final Plea
For those demon children and grandchildren who want to continue rolling in the Demon Realm, and for those preparing to enter the Demon Realm, I think this is the most important message I want to convey to everyone.
Those already in the Demon Realm, hurry and seek refuge, and leave the Demon Realm. Those in the human world who have not yet entered, do not enter the Demon Realm anymore. As long as you change your personality and habits, you do not need to enter the Demon Realm. Do not have your own hatred, do not have your own likes, do not have all kinds of subjective views, opinions, thoughts, feelings, emotions, and demon nature, and you will not need to take a trip to the Demon Realm. After entering the Demon Realm, the ultimate goal is still to leave it; doesn't that mean you have wasted your time for nothing?
Now, demon children and grandchildren, ancient demons, and old demons in the Demon Realm, hurry and find the Buddha to leave. The opportunity of the Demon Realm is right here, and you can complete your mission in the Demon Realm. No matter what you have done, that is the past; there is no need to care. Leave the Demon Realm as soon as possible and complete this task.
Completing this course means you have not wasted your years rolling in the Demon Realm. If you remain obsessed and stay there for trillions and trillions of years, still stagnant, and think that you are advancing and becoming ancient demons or old demons—thinking that being more senior is an improvement—in reality, you are just: leaving later, graduating later, and achieving later.
This course and these credits should be easily obtained, and you should graduate early; you should not drag it out for so long. All you ancient demons and old demons, you must change your thinking. If you can leave, leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, being pursued by karmic retribution or wasting a lot of time in the meditative state of the Demon Realm is a very regrettable thing.
The above is the most important thing I, the demon Lu Da, have learned in 837 billion-billion-trillion years. I have laid it all out here for everyone, without the slightest concealment. This is what I have learned with all my life’s effort. Although it seems insignificant in front of the Buddha’s teachings, it is at least a glimpse of what I could learn from the perspective of a
