After the Clearwisdom editors sent out an announcement regarding Teacher's
instructions to change some words in Zhuan Falun, some practitioners have
been concerned about marking up the book and how this can be done. My
understanding is that this question was answered by Teacher in "Teaching the Fa
at the Meeting with Asia-Pacific Students",
"Question: Recently you mentioned that certain words in your writings
need to be revised. Can we directly paste the correct words over the old
ones, instead of scratching the old ones off?
Teacher: Actually it's fine however you do it, as long as you correct
them. The students in Mainland China don't have the means to do this. I know
that in the past, most of the books printed in Mainland China used
newsprint, and it was pretty thick, so it won't be damaged if you scratch it
lightly with a thin blade. I'm just giving you an idea. You don't have to do
it that way. (Audience laughs)"
