Put Together Again

Question: A shelf above my desk gave way and broke my Bodhisattva image. Can I glue the pieces and continue to pay respect?

Answer: I think this is a very powerful reminder of how life can be very unpredictable, and how we should treasure the moment without attachment. Yes, of course you can glue it together. The image thereafter will be a constant reminder of the lesson above.

Question: It is also a lesson on the compassion of the Bodhisattva for a ‘nobody’ like me, as he vowed to liberate all beings. Must not let him down… From now on, I must strive to be a better person.
