人生怎樣不虛度?
.
.
記住,要設定一個光彩的目標。你的目光要博大,心胸博大,生氣就少了;知識淵博,才能讀懂別人。所以我們的世界、我們的心胸可能從這一刻就開始改變了。
.
因為心中的自在、對世界的認識,能夠融於這個世界,融於自然,善待萬物,你到哪裡不成功啊?你心中有「愛」,拈草就能為藥,拿起石頭來就能幫人。這需要慈悲加博學,就是這樣。

How do we ensure our life is purposeful?

Bear in mind to set a glorious goal. Have foresight and be broad minded; hence, you will not be prone to anger. A learned person is naturally more understanding. Thus our world and our mind may start to change from this very moment.

With a peaceful mind and deep understanding of the world, you will be able to blend in perfectly with nature and the world, you will be kind to one and all, thus you will be successful wherever you go. If you have nothing but love in your heart, even a bunch of grass can become medicine, and stone, your best healing instrument. The key is in great compassion combined with vast knowledge. That, is the truth.

台湾的大蒙子!

The big cheat in Taiwan!

To increase safety, many consumers now choose to use fire-retardant paints.
However, one such supplier, En Chi Industry Co. from Taipei who claimed that they are the sole authorized dealer of UK-based Phoenix Precision Paints sold counterfeit fire-retardant paint made from low-grade materials and cheap chemical ingredients at one-third of the original price.

Tests showed that their products did not have fire-retardant properties.

Several major projects that were affected include the National Palace Museum, Taipei Basketball Gymnasium at Heping Elementary School and the Taipei Performing Arts Center.

【春季養生系列──菊花枸杞茶】
.
根據中醫理論,人的五臟與四季對應。四季之中,春天屬木;而人體的五臟之中,肝臟也是木性。因此春季易使肝火旺盛,春天肝病也極易復發。所以,春天養肝恰好是順應氣候變化養生的選擇。
.
菊花,具有養肝、清肝、明目的功效;枸杞、山楂,均能滋養肝腎 。菊花,加上枸杞、山楂、冰糖一起泡來飲用,可以起到清熱排毒、明目養顏的作用。
.
需要注意的是菊花茶性偏苦寒,體虛之人不宜多飲用;胃寒胃虛的人也要少用菊花茶。孕婦也不宜喝。

在選材上,因菊花的種類很多,不懂門道的人會選擇花朵白晰且大的菊花,其實又小又醜且顏色泛黃的菊花反而是上選。「養生枸杞菊花茶」的材料與作法如下。
.
材料:
菊花20朵、乾枸杞10粒、山楂3片、冰糖150克、水1000ml。
.
作法:
1. 將菊花、枸杞、山楂、冰糖倒入茶壺;
2. 沖入90-100℃沸水;
3. 加蓋燜泡10分鐘左右;
4. 倒出即可飲用。

【Spring Health Series ─ ─ Chrysanthemum wolf-berry tea】

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, the five internal organs correspond to the four seasons. Among them, spring is categorized under the wood element, same as the liver in the human body. Thus, in spring, liver-fire is strong and so spring is also the season for frequent recurrence of liver illnesses. Therefore, to nourish the liver in spring, we need to adapt to seasonal changes to keep it in good health.

Chrysanthemum has the effect of nourishing and cleansing the liver as well as improving eyesight; both wolf-berries and hawthorn help to nourish the liver and kidney. Chrysanthemum, with wolf-berry, hawthorn, and rock sugar can be steeped into a drink which has cooling and detoxifying effect. It also helps to improve eyesight and promote younger-looking skin.

It should be noted that chrysanthemum tea is of bitter-cold nature, thus unsuitable for people with weak physical conditions. Those with stomach problems should limit the intake of chrysanthemum tea. Due to the large varieties of chrysanthemum available, many people do not know how to choose them. They tend to pick the big, white flowers. In fact, the small, unsightly yellowish chrysanthemum flowers are the best choice. The ingredients and process for making healthy wolf-berry chrysanthemum tea are as follows.

Ingredients:
Chrysanthemum, 20 pieces
Dried wolf-berries, 10 pieces
Hawthorn 3 pieces
Rock sugar 150 grams
Water 1000ml.

Methods:
1. Put chrysanthemum, wolf-berry, hawthorn and rock sugar into a teapot;
2. Pour 90-100 ℃ boiling water to it.
3. Cover and steep for about 10 minutes;
4. Enjoy.

【念佛能修智慧與穩定的心】
.
在修佛法之中,不光是我們為母親(親人)念佛,到底我們在修佛法之中,修到的是什麼呢?第一個就是智慧,第二個就是穩定。穩定的心就變成真心。你做人穩定應用在家庭上,就能有穩定的家庭,夫妻不能說一不高興了就離婚;應用在工作上,就有穩定的工作,你不會因為一點點的情緒變化,就提辭職。
.
如果不穩定會怎麼樣呢?工作不穩定就會帶來家庭的不穩定,家庭的動盪會導致婚姻不穩定。婚姻不穩定的人,孩子吃苦吃大了!很多父母一離婚,在很多孩子的個性之中就埋下了仇恨、扭曲,不能正常地看待人生,所以長大不敢結婚。
因此修一個穩定的心,對我們人的一生,方方面面幫助特別大。

Chanting brings wisdom and stability

The practice of the Dharma refers not merely to chant for our mothers or our loved ones. In reality, as we conscientiously practice the Dharma, we actualize real benefits. First, we gain wisdom. Second, we achieve a sense of stability, and with it, a pure heart. The benefits of such stability are twofold: at home, couples for example, become sensible and do not threaten to divorce due to disagreements; at work, employees do not rashly resign owing to challenges and emotional episodes at the work place.

If the converse is true, what are the implications? Where there’s instability at work, family life invariably deteriorates. This would then have adverse implications on marriage stability. As a consequence, the children inordinately suffer. In extreme circumstances when the parent’s marriage break down irretrievably, the offspring could bear the hatred and develop a biased view of the world. They may no longer view life positively and wholesomely, and many choose not to marry eventually.
Therefore, it is critical that we practice towards a stable and pure heart. This will have tremendous benefits to all aspects of our life.

人生怎樣不虛度?
有一條路,辛苦又漫長,是成長的道路;
有一株草,需要辛勤翻土與灌溉,才能收穫纍纍的果實,那就是每一株初入新土的嫩草__青春與年少。

每一株嫩草的成長,有著些許的賭注,些許的不安份,更多的是新奇與疑問。「衝撞式成長」是每一株新綠必經的旅程,才能向下穩穩扎根,並且突破覆蓋層層充滿養分的土壤,過程中難免會傷痕累累,汗水也可能白流,但除了此路,再無捷徑。
因為每一次成長的旅程,唯有腳踏實地往下扎根,不斷地付出才可能有收穫。

人生怎樣不虛度?要如何突破與收穫呢?
「其實,你就是改變你的起點!!」

本週六歡迎許多青年才俊,以及身為父親、母親的你(妳),都能共同來學習研究「給青年人」這堂課,共同幫助這些新苗的成長與茁壯。

【師父愛吃爛蘋果】
.
在中國有一對夫妻是我的弟子,他們失業了,生活的很艱苦。他們拿我的相片放在家裡,點個破蠟燭,上一炷香,又撿來的三個爛蘋果,當做供品,因為他們入不敷出,所以也捨不得多放。
.
這對夫妻只有一個孩子,是他們唯一的希望,期望孩子一定要考上大學,但孩子偏偏不聽話,媽媽天天祈求師父、祈求佛、祈求菩薩:「我這個孩子非常調皮,十六、七歲快要考大學了,但功課卻很差,師父,求您發發慈悲啊!」
.
就這樣天天供養,過了三個月,孩子考完大學後,告訴父母自己應該能考上,因為題目都會寫。他說:「我考試的感覺就像在公園散步一樣輕鬆,功課比我好的同學,有的緊張得都快休克了,手不停的抖,但我都沒有事,一點都不緊張。媽,這是怎麼回事呢?考試的題目我都答的出來,我覺得自己應該考得上才對。」
.
媽媽聽了也是半信半疑,等到放榜後,發現兒子真的考上大學了!父母都感到既快樂又欣慰,之後媽媽還到處跟人家說,師父愛吃爛蘋果!事實上,是父母的真誠和不間斷的祈福感動了天,並非我有求必應。大家知道嗎?供佛一份心,獲得千百萬。

Master loves to eat rotten apples

In China, there’s a couple who are my disciples. They had lost their jobs, and life was challenging. Living in austerity then, they could only pray to the Gods with a simple picture of mine, a broken candle, a joss stick and three rotten apples as offerings.

The couple pinned all their hopes on their only child, and wished he could make it to the university. However, the child was not motivated and would not listen. His mother earnestly prayed to Buddha, Bodhisattva, and I, “My child is almost 17 years old and is due to enter the university; yet his studies is weak and he’s playful. Master, please show mercy and shower your blessings on him so that he can make it to the university!

The couple devotedly made the same offerings daily. After three months, the child sat for his examination. He felt confident and assured his parents, “When I sat for the paper, it felt like a walk in the park. Friends who had previously done better than me were nervous. I could see that their hands were trembling, while I remained calm. Mum, why was that so? I could answer the questions with ease and felt confident about passing the exam.”

The mother half-believed his words. When the results were released, the child managed to gain admission into the university, and both the parents were elated and relieved. Since then, the mother spread the word that Master loves to eat rotten apples! Well, the fact is; it was the sincerity of the parents and the conscientious prayers that moved the Heaven. Do you know – when we pray to the Buddha single-mindedly with a sincere heart, we can receive innumerable blessings.
