Become a "normal" person:
To be good in everything you do and be good to everyone you meet in daily life.
Any teaching that cannot help you become a better person in your "real" life 24 hours a day is questionable ........
Good teaching always brings you back to yourself -- discover the best quality inside yourself.
It is a tool to help you to become "your own Buddha / God...etc."
"Buddhism is in the real world, it is not separated from everyday life, if you seek methods (fa) away from real life, it is like seek "horns" on the rabbit's head"................."
"The "ordinary heart" is Dao" (ping chang xin si dao)
Don't look for super powers, miracles, ESP, magic.....
No power is higher than the power of love, peace, wisdom, and concern for yourself and others. (ci bei xin in Buddism; Faith, hope, and belief in Christianity;
Dao De in Daoism, etc.)
If you don't behave (be good) in this world, which other world will accept you after you here after (die) ........
If you are good in this world, this life...............you don't need to apply, all the "heavens" will compete to invite you with "scholarships", "free air tickets", "gifts" etc. .........!!!
