– From an old disciple who wonders
Wu Youlin
On January 20, 2023, Li Hongzhi, the “Master” of us believers, released a scripture entitled “Why Are There Human Beings”, in which he continued to claim that he is the “Creator” and also made some remarks about “Earthlings”. Instead of the disdainful attitude of calling earthlings as trash, he said, ” Gods came down to earth to be human beings in this environment”. I am puzzled by the fact that “Master” has gone back on his word and elevated “earthlings” in such a way:
– What is the human being on earth, ” trash” or “God”?
Master, you said in your “Dharma Talk at the Eastern U.S. Dharma Conference” that Earth is the center of the universe and Earth is a dumping ground for the universe; in “Turning the Law Wheel” you said, “The earliest human life originated in the universe. It is only because human beings are selfish and commit evil deeds that they fall down layer by layer, and finally they fall to the level of the earth, the dumping ground of the universe. In “Law Wheel Buddhism – Lecture at the First North American Dharma Conference,” you also mentioned that humans are seen as trash by highly advanced beings. For this reason, “Buddhism disciples” like me, who did not want to be a “trash”, followed you. Now you say in the scripture “Why Are There Human Beings” that some gods came to the outermost layer of the celestial bodies (collectively called the outside of the Dharma world) where there is no god, and created the earth; and that the Creator sent all the gods and goddesses down to be human beings in this environment. Thus, it seems that the people of the earth, whom you used to call “trash”, are now “gods” descending to earth. Due to your inconsistency, I am not only unable to determine whether “earthlings” are “trash” or “gods”, but more importantly, I suspect that you are a fraud!
– People on Earth are more powerful than “God”?
Master, in your recent scripture “Why Are There Human Beings”, you talked about “God” coming to earth as a “human being”, which is already baffling to me. It is even more bizarre that you said in this sermon that the Creator told God to create man for the purpose of saving all beings in the heavens, including all gods, at the end of time. Since “people on earth” will save “God”, doesn’t that mean that people on earth are more capable than “God”? This is very different from what you said before. Leave other “gods” aside for now, let’s talk about you. You once told us that you are the “Lord Buddha of the Universe” who is omniscient, omnipotent and omnipresent and could save us “Buddhism disciples” to enter the “Celestial World”. Yet now you are asking people on earth, including us “Buddhism disciples” who have not yet completed our training, to save you. Even if they could, where could they deliver you and other “gods” to? Besides, according to the statement you made, there are many “gods” on earth, and earthlings including “Buddhism disciples” will never be able to save them all! It seems that you are fooling us, Master!
– Is our “master” a fraud?
Master, you have said, “I am the only one who can lead you to heaven,” and you have “left us a ladder to heaven” (“Turning Law Wheel”), and you have also described the heaven that we will go to after we have completed our practice as the “World of Law Wheel” (“The Interpretation of Turning Law Wheel”), “So in the future, when he has completed his practice, he will be able to get whatever he wants, and he will have whatever he wants, and he can do whatever he wants. In his world, he will always have everything. ” (“Turning Law Wheel”). In addition, he promises, “When practitioners of Law Wheel Buddhism accept my teachings and truly commit to practice, they will be protected by my spiritual body. As long as you keep practicing, the Body will protect you until your practice is complete. If you stop practicing in the middle, my body will naturally leave. ” (“The Interpretation of Turning Law Wheel”). You even told us “Buddhism disciples” that “you signed a contract with me when you came to this world” (New York Dharma Talk 2016). However, this time “Master” said that “there is no way to be good or bad to any life”; “the end has come, the gates of the three worlds have been opened, and Creator has been choosing such people for salvation. ” You have forgotten all about your “promises” and “contracts” and not only do you fail to “protect” and “save your “Buddhism disciples”, but you are also choosing those who will be “saved”! Li Hongzhi, “Master” of us “Buddhism disciples”, is a fraud, isn’t he?
If this is true, you have done a lot of harm to people, Master! I am the veteran disciple who started practicing Law Wheel in 1995. For nearly 30 years, I have followed you religiously and strictly followed your request to “put aside fame and fortune, and to achieve perfection in the heavenly realm,” at the expense of everything in this world – divorcing my wife, giving up my job as a journalist, and even nearly losing my life when I contracted the New Coronavirus. In the end, it was all for naught! It is you, my dearest Master, that ruined my entire life!
I am not the only Buddhism disciple who has been victimized by you, Master! There are even more people who have suffered greater harm than me! Chen Guo, a university student in his prime, burned himself to the ground and became a puppet who could not take care of himself for the sake of “perfection”! Guan Shuyun, who was obsessed with Law Wheel, strangled her 9-year-old daughter to death as if she were a “demon”! According to incomplete statistics, as of 1999, when Law Wheel was legally banned by the state, as many as 1,404 people had been killed by your practice!
Master, you’ve killed lives, destroyed families and endangered society, and you never deserve to be a teacher! You are a genuine fraud!
