Many kings, many great leaders, went to hell. Most of them. I’m not sorry to say that because it is the truth. Only a king who is humble, who serves his people well, with all his good intentions and gives all thanks and credit to God, to Buddha, would go to Heaven. […] Because people who walk tall and talk big, like they are “very religious, very faithful” to God, all that, they went to hell because they abuse God’s Power, they abuse God’s Name for their own ego advantage. That is why you should never mock God. […]
Liang Wu-Ti, the Liang Emperor, was very proud. Because he built many temples and fed many monks to study Buddhism, he thought he’s top. But when he asked Great Master Bodhidharma how much merit does he have from building temples, feeding monks and all that, the Great Master Bodhidharma said to him, “Nothing. You have nothing.” And that’s why Emperor Liang was very angry and did not receive Bodhidharma well anymore after that. He didn’t want to see Him anymore. […] He should thank God, because he has a chance to do it. He has a position to do it. But all the money came from taxpayers. He’d never done anything good to earn it. That’s why he has no merit to begin with.

That’s a sad thing, but humans don’t listen easily to goodness or to the high knowledge or to true wisdom. It’s just so easy to fall into an easy life, tempted by all kinds of things that the maya has arrayed for them and once you’re in there, it’s difficult to get out. But there is still time. As long as I’m here, I will take you in my open arms and teach you, if you are sincere, if you really worship God and want to go Home, in God’s Domain, I always welcome you. Your karma, I will clean all up with no cost, nothing. I’ll never ask you for anything. […]
