The Venerable Master Hsuan Hua:
Let me pass on a secret to you today. What secret? In moments of crisis, maintain calm and do not be nervous. Forget about your life and recite Guanshiyin Bodhisattva's name with a singleness of mind. With that, you will definitely turn danger into safety and survive that test.
When you are in the severest of dangers, contemplate, "Since I am going to die soon, I might as will give it my all and recite Guanshiyin Bodhisattva's name before I die. Maybe there is still a ray of hope that way." Think like that and your problems will reduce to something auspicious. -

心隨境转是凡夫；境隨心转是圣贤
To let the circumstances dictate one’s state of mind is human; to let the mind dictate the circumstances is sage. - Ven. Sheng Yen -
