Illuminate the darkness with profound compassion and great vows, protect all beings with wisdom and perseverance

Visiting Putuo Mountain to worship Buddha every year has become a habit I have unconsciously maintained for 8 years. The original plan was to start a pilgrimage to the other three major Bodhisattvas' sacred sites after visiting 9 times. However, something magical happened!!! This year, while climbing Huangshan, I met a monk. When I shared this idea with him, the master reminded me that cultivation is in the heart and there is no need to limit oneself. Since I want to visit the sacred sites of the four great Bodhisattvas, I shouldn’t impose restrictions on myself. Letting go of one thought brings boundless freedom. So, I came to Jiuhua Mountain! Here, the temple bell rings melodiously, just in the season of orange, yellow, and green. Isn’t this magical connection a sign from Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva guiding me in the unseen?
