Everyone is waiting for you to preach the Dharma to them!

So everyone should know themselves and know who they are! Recognize that you are a member of the Lotus Pond Assembly of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and recognize that you are one of the Five Hundred Arhats. I am one of the five hundred Arhats, and I am one of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the Lotus Pond Assembly. So since I am one of them, I should be clear about what my job is. What vows did I make in my past lives? You should recall it yourself. If you can't remember, you can have a good dream; in the dream, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas will tell you what you should do. Then in this country, everyone is waiting for you, waiting for you to preach the Dharma to them! Because in the past few thousand years, we have not seen the Buddha, heard the Dharma, or met a saint. Now is a beginning, and everyone should do good things.
