If a person has never experienced the feeling of being filled with Dharma joy, he should not mention it in this life.
1: It was the first time in my life that I experienced the joy of Dharma.
When I was forty years old, I took refuge in the Three Jewels. I was very excited that day. In the past few months, I had been listening to my master's sermons, and I had understood some Buddhist principles that I had never encountered before. I knew that the merits of life release were incredible, so I decided to go for life release after the Three Refuges ceremony was completed. .
This is my first experience in life. It rained heavily that day until four o'clock in the afternoon. I thought it would be more convenient to release the bucket of loaches eels before going out after the rain stopped. Unfortunately, it kept raining, and it was about to get dark. I guessed it wouldn't stop raining before dark, so I decided to ride on a small electric donkey without bringing an umbrella and set off. Two miles away there was a relatively wide stream upstream, and I completed all the release rituals.
Only then did I realize that I was not wet at all, not even a little bit. I couldn't help but look up. I don't know when the rain stopped. The sky in the west was covered with sunset, and there were countless beams of light, emitting colorful colors. It was really beautiful!
Oh, my God! Isn’t this the legendary Buddha’s light shining everywhere? For a moment, it felt like a lifetime ago. I stared blankly at the highest point in the western sky where the Buddha's light shone. I seemed to see Amitabha Buddha nodding and smiling at me. In an instant, a nameless sense of joy filled my whole body. It was as if my whole person had been directly instilled by the Buddha's light. Infinite energy, full of vitality in an instant.
2: I also experienced several similar Dharma joys later on. They all come after doing things that are helpful to others. At this point, I truly realize that only when a person sincerely helps others without asking for anything in return, can his heart be truly filled with the supreme joy of Dharma. And this joy is incredible!
