Lotus Sutra
A Commentary by the Venerable Master Hsuan Hua
As long as you can chant Namo Guanshiyin Bodhisattva, all these resentment will all be eliminated and disappear. What kind of resentment? It's about lawsuits and wars.
What are the reasons for lawsuits and being in the army? It is because of the excessive resentment accumulated over many lifetimes that they have come together; they have gathered together to settle their resentment and to repay each other for the retribution. But if you can recite the name of Guanyin Bodhisattva, all these retributions will be alleviated, the serious ones will become light ones, and the light ones will become nothing. How come it's gone? Because you chant Guanyin Bodhisattva. If you don't recite the name of Guanyin Bodhisattva, these problems will become serious; if you recite the name of Guanyin Bodhisattva, they will be alleviated. Therefore, Guanyin Bodhisattva has an incredible state that cannot be understood by ordinary people.
