愛出者愛返,福往者福來
.
.
倘若我們心懷善念,就可能為自己、也為這個世界帶來一份美好。
.
和大家分享一個感人的故事:
100多年前的某天下午,在英國一個鄉村的田野裡,一位貧困的農民正在勞作。忽然,他聽到遠處傳來了呼救的聲音,原來,一名少年不幸落水了。農民不假思索,奮不顧身地跳入水中救人。孩子得救了。後來,大家才知道,這個獲救的孩子是一個貴族公子。
.
幾天後,老貴族親自帶著禮物登門感謝,農民卻拒絕了這份厚禮。在他看來,當時救人只是出於自己的良心。
.
故事到這兒並沒有結束。
老貴族因為敬佩農民的善良與高尚,感念他的恩德,於是,決定資助農民的兒子到倫敦去接受高等教育。
.
多年後,農民的兒子從倫敦聖瑪麗醫學院畢業了,他品學兼優,後來被英國皇家授勳封爵,並獲得1945年的諾貝爾醫學獎。他就是亞歷山大•弗萊明,青黴素的發明者。
.
那名貴族公子也長大了,在第二次世界大戰期間患上了嚴重的肺炎,但幸運的是,依靠青黴素,他很快就痊癒了。這名貴族公子就是英國首相邱吉爾。
.
農民與貴族,都在別人需要幫助的時候伸出了援手,卻為他們自己的後代、甚至國家播下了善種。
.
「一花一世界,一念一菩提」,無需驚訝,所有的相遇,都不是偶然。世界很大,也很小。一朵玫瑰折射出整個宇宙,一份善念能讓世界擁有更多美麗。

如何「念佛」可以幫助自己也利於子孫?(2017年9月2日)
.
.
問:「祖先應該要保祐後代子孫,家宅興旺、順利平安?但為何有些人年年祭拜祖先,卻還是家運不好,進而生病.破財.家庭失和呢...?」
我說個故事給大家參考,也許會對許多人有幫助。
.
有一天,一位母親帶她的孩子來見我。
母親說:「我的孩子生下來,全身都是一條一條像刀劃過的斑紋,我帶孩子看遍了所有中、西醫,都沒有辦法處理,也找不出原因?孩子還經常做惡夢,夢到自己全身鮮血淋漓、甚至更夢到自己全身就剩一堆白骨。求師父救救我的孩子吧!」我瞭解了一下才明白,原來女士的父親、爺爺祖輩們全都是廚師,祖傳最擅長的菜餚,就是烹活魚,在活魚身上劃出一道一道口子來烹飪,這就好像她孩子身上的痕跡。
.
我告訴這位母親說:「妳去佛前用真誠的心,為自己的父母、祖先懺悔、念佛,並且需要勤力去作一些善行,好比說「放生、供燈、發心建道場」吧,不然我也沒別的法子了。」她聽完回去做了這一系列事情的一個月後,她兒子身上的斑痕明顯地淡了一半。所以,做功德、懺悔的作用力太大了!因為我們的祖先、父母過去所做過的一切錯事都會遺傳下來,使子孫後代不安,造成種種的疾病和人生障礙。
.
「真心誦念一句佛號,勝過萬兩黃金。」我們通過為父母祖先念佛、供燈,祈請佛菩薩加持。當我們的祖宗能安寧、祥和、自在了,我們才會平安、吉祥、自在。
.
那麼要如何通過「懺悔、念佛」來消除祖宗所遺傳給我們的業力呢?
歡迎大家在本週六,與我一起研究如何《為父母祖先念佛》吧。
祝福大家早日離苦得樂,平安、健康、幸福、快樂!

喜歡就請分享,共同幫助更多需要幫助的人們,願他們也都能獲得光明、吉祥、健康、快樂。

Chanting for parents and ancestors benefits descendants (September 2, 2017) Question: “Ancestors should bless the descendants with prosperity and peace. However, why are some people constantly suffering from bad luck, disease, financial woes and breakups? Let me share a story that may be of some help to many people. One day, a mother brought her child to see me. The mother said, “Since birth, my son’s whole body has knife-like stripes. I took him to see both Western doctors and Chinese physicians but to no avail as none could identify the cause of his problem. He constantly had nightmares of blood dripping from his body and body turning into a pile of bones. Master, please help save my son!” After further probing, I found out that the mother’s father and forefathers were all chefs. Their expertise was cooking live fishes. The cuts that they made on the fishes resembled those marks on his son’s body. I told the mother, “Go before the Buddha, chant and repent sincerely for your parents and ancestors. Not only that, you have to diligently carry out good deeds such as releasing captive animals, offering lights before the Buddha and contributing to the construction of dharma cultivation halls. Otherwise, I have no other way.” She followed my advice and did a series of good deeds. A month later, the marks on her son’s body cleared out almost half. Thus, the force of merits accumulation and sincere repentance is great! Past misdeeds of ancestors and parents would be passed on to the descendants in the form of uneasiness, illness, obstacles and hindrances in lives. There is a saying – Sincere chanting of Buddha’s name is worth more than a ton of gold. Through light offering and sincere chanting for our parents and ancestors, we seek blessings from the Buddha and bodhisattvas. Only when our ancestors attain freedom and peace will we be safe, auspicious and peaceful. So how do we “chant and repent” to eliminate karmic debts and obstacles transmitted to us by our ancestors? Welcome everyone to join me in this coming Saturday’s “Chanting for parents and ancestors” session. May all be free from suffering and gain liberation soon! Online Global Group Practice Schedules:1.

【歡喜功德】 為親人點盞光明燈吧,願你我…
【歡喜功德】
為親人點盞光明燈吧,願你我歡喜、自在、吉祥、健康。
.
.
在《藥師經中》,佛陀指引我們,在藥師佛前,點光明燈,尤其是點49盞光明燈,點49天,49天之中,不滅不斷不絕,就能夠達到解脫煩惱、成就事業、成就願望的功德目的。
.
在農曆七月十五這一天,我們通過真誠之心在佛前供燈、在佛前真誠獻上鮮花、水果、明燈、香、米、水,等一切人生的必需品,祈求佛菩薩,保佑咱們來年不為生活愁苦、衣食富足。並且以此供養修行人、修行大德們的功德,能讓地獄中受苦的祖宗、親人們不再受各種刑罰,不再痛苦、恐懼……;也使活在世間的父母、祖輩健康長壽。並且借助這個功德,還能讓我們曾經傷害過的一切冤親債主,能夠得以解脫,消除我們的罪業,廣種福田。
.
另一方面,我們累世父母的好壞、善惡都會通過DNA遺傳給我們;當累世父母的壞與惡還留在他們身上時,其後代子孫的人生,也會顯現各種不順或不安的狀態;通過我們在佛前替他們懺悔、祈福、供養,佛光普照他們,消除他們自身的業障、業果,後代子孫的生活也會變得順遂、吉祥!所以,當我們的祖宗、親人吉祥自在了,我們也才能夠吉祥自在。
.
因此,學習用一顆「真誠」歡喜心去布施、歡喜供養、就能得到真功德、真幸福!
.
歡迎大家借助這樣一個好機會為祖先、為自己做功德,讓佛歡喜自在,讓我們的祖先吉祥自在,也讓我們自己遠離痛苦黑暗、獲得吉祥圓滿的人生。這也是後代子孫,報答累世父母最好的方法。
.
我先為你點上一盞燈吧,最後祝願大家:
「願慈悲的光明之火,照亮我們內心的無明。」
「願有緣的眾生,能夠遠離黑暗、遠離痛苦、遠離病痛、遠離一切煩惱,一切美好皆能成就。健康長壽、吉祥如意!!」
.
【Joyful Merits】
Offer a light for your loved ones, may all be blessed with joy, peace, auspiciousness and great health!
In the “Medicine Buddha” sutra, Sakyamuni Buddha encouraged us to offer light to the Medicine Buddha for 49 consecutive days so as to be liberated from mental stress, have bright career success and fulfillment of wishes.
On the 15th day of the seventh lunar month, we offer lights, flowers, fruits, incense, rice, water and other daily necessities to the Buddha with sincerity and seek his blessings for a comfortable and prosperous year ahead.
With the merits gained through offerings to the Sangha and other great accomplished practitioners, our ancestors and loved ones would be liberated from suffering in the lower realms. They may be reprieved from punishment, suffering and fear. Our living elderly relatives and parents will enjoy longevity and good health
Our karmic creditors would also be relieved from their sufferings and our karmic debts would clear sooner so that we can start to accumulate good karmic merits and fortune.
We also inherit the good and bad karma of our parents from previous lifetimes through DNA; their wellbeing might affect us as their descendants and can manifest as uneasiness.
By repenting, chanting and making offerings to Buddha on behalf of our parents of previous lifetimes, Buddha will shine compassionate light on them, eradicate their karmic obstacles, debts and we can then be able to enjoy an auspicious life! We can be auspicious if our ancestors and deceased loved ones are at ease.
Hence, when we sincerely and joyfully make offerings to Buddha, we accumulate good merits and lead happy lives!
I welcome everyone to make use of this opportunity to accumulate merits for yourself, your ancestors and loved ones. When Buddha feels joyful from our offerings and bless our ancestors with auspiciousness, our sufferings and darkness dissipates and we enjoy a fulfilling and happy life. This is the best way to repay our parents of previous lifetimes.
Let me offer a light for you and lastly, make a wish for all:
“May the light of compassion shines on us and drives away all darkness from our hearts.”
“May the darkness, sufferings, illnesses and troubling thoughts of all sentient beings vanish
May all enjoy an auspicious and healthy life blessed with longevity!!”

整容會改運嗎? 不用整容 你可以有更有效…
整容會改運嗎?
不用整容 你可以有更有效的選擇!
.
問:「整容」命運會不會也跟著改變呢?
.
答:
無論妳外表多美,沒有了實質內涵就會不自信,一切就會不長久。若想「改變命運」要先「改變真正的自己」,才能兩相吻合。
另一個方面,「整容」,可能會讓命運變壞。
每個人遺傳不同,各有各的吉相,你的骨骼,你的面相是順著你的基因承襲下來的,如果借由整容去改變,造成吉相被破壞,會可能導致運氣、命運跟著變壞。
當然,如果你覺得自己實在不太美,比如需要墊高鼻子,那就墊吧!!!
.
我的美容建議:
試試「禪修」吧!「禪修」會讓人變得自信、有內涵,咱們有內涵了,就不需要去包裝外在,因為咱們憑的是本事。

Can cosmetic surgery change one’s fortune?
Don’t choose cosmetic surgery, there are better options!
Q : Will one’s fate and fortune change with cosmetic surgery?
A :
No matter how beautiful one’s appearance, without substance or sufficient depth of character, self-confidence would still be lacking and thus the effects would not last. If one wishes to improve the fate and fortune, one should first work on him/ herself to reap the collective benefits.
Another aspect of cosmetic surgery is that it may worsen one’s fate and fortune.
We are born genetically different, and we have our own auspicious look. Your bone structure and facial features are inherited. If we change them by going through plastic surgery and destroy our already blessed looks, our fortune and fate may turn for the worse.
However, if you feel that you look very bad, and need to cosmetically elevate your nose bridge for example, then go ahead!!!
My beauty advice:
Try meditation! Meditation helps enhance self-confidence and develop the depth in character. With these qualities, the motivation to enhance one’s appearance diminishes, as one is self-assured and possesses real competence.

【佛前點燈,消除邪氣】
Offering light before Buddha helps clear negative energy
.
世界上有很多事情,是目前的科學無法解釋的。比如有的人睡覺時,朦朧地看到一個黑影進到身體裡,之後就很不舒服;還有的人夢到已經去世的人,醒來後就莫名地生病了,科學上無法解釋,醫學上也查不出病因。那有什麼辦法可以解決嗎?臺灣的昱貢有經驗分享給大家。
———————————————————————————————
我是昱貢,來自台灣。2014年的時候,我妹妹在澳洲居住。有一天晚上,她做了一個夢,夢到死去多年的鄰居,在夢裡拍了拍她的頭,她當下就驚醒了。沒想到從此就開始生病頭痛,一病就是一個多月,多次看醫生也不見任何效果。
.
當時我正好參加菩提禪修健身班,在課堂上聽到了不少師兄姐分享有關供燈的見證,我便抱著好奇想試試看的心理,在沒告知妹妹的情況下,給她點了一盞燈,驗證一下是不是真的那麼靈驗。
.
沒想到,過了兩天她打電話告訴我,說這兩天在沒吃藥的狀況下頭痛突然減緩,也沒這麼疼了。我這才告訴她,我有幫她點燈,她聽了又馬上追加一盞,不久頭痛也就完全痊癒了。
.
她把自己的親身經歷告訴了澳洲的朋友們,從那時起,她的澳洲朋友陸陸續續託我在禪堂點燈,短短幾個月內,我就相繼幫他們點了很多盞燈,可見大家都有受益,才會這般口口相傳、紛紛點燈。菩提供燈果真具有不可思議地神奇能量。

#供燈、#神奇見證、#菩提禪修rnrnOffering light before Buddha helps clear negative energy
Even in modern days, there are still many things that Science cannot explain. For instance, one may see or feel a black image entering their body in the middle of their sleep and start to experience discomfort thereafter; others fall sick after dreaming of deceased family and friends. Medical doctors fail to diagnose the source of their discomfort. What recourse do we have to resolve these problems? Yugong from Taiwan would like to share on her experiences.
I am Yugong from Taiwan. In the year of 2014, my sister was residing in Australia. One night, she dreamt of a neighbor who had passed away many years ago. In the dream, the neighbor jolted my sister up from her sleep and tapped her head. Subsequently, my sister started to fall sick and suffered from bad headache attacks. Her discomfort went on for more than a month and although she sought medical help, her condition did not improve.
At that time, I was attending Bodhi’s meditation retreat and heard from other dharma brothers and sisters many testimonials on the benefits of making light offerings. With a curious mind, I offered a light on my sister’s behalf without informing her, to verify if it was efficacious.
Never did I expect to receive her call two days later. She told me her headaches had been alleviated even though she had not taken her medicine for 2 days. Upon hearing this, I told her I had offered a light to Buddha on her behalf. Since she felt better after one light offering, she asked me to make another light offering. Shortly, she recovered from her headaches.
She shared her experiences with her friends in Australia. Since then, her Australian friends often sought my help in making light offerings. Within a few months, I have lighted 76 lamps at their request. Obviously these people must have benefitted personally and hence spread through word of mouth the miraculous effect of Bodhi’s light offering – this explains why I continue to receive their requests.
This sharing is indeed a testament and reinforcement to the miraculous energy and power of Bodhi’s light offering.

「愛他還是害他?」
.
曾經有兩個父親一起坐長途飛機,一個美國父親、一個中國父親,他們兩個的座位挨著。這位中國父親要到美國看望他的兒子。
.
美國父親就說:「去看望你的兒子,他很好吧?」
中國父親:「還可以,我是來替他買房子、替他找工作、替他找相親對象的。」
美國父親就說:「那你乾脆替他吃飯算了。」
.
那這位中國父親也說:「欸,那你有沒有孩子啊?」
美國父親說:「有啊。」
中國父親又問:「多大歲數?」
美國父親回:「25歲了!」
.
中國父親:「那你不喜歡你的孩子嗎?」
美國父親說:「喜歡呐。因為喜歡,所以我就讓他搬走了,不讓他住我家。20歲的時候還住我家,我就要收房租。」
這位中國父親就說:「你這人太不像話了,你這是剝削你的孩子,你不像一個父親。你一個父親,你怎麼好意思向兒子收房租呢?」
他說:「我還給他打八折呢,他在外面租房子比我的貴一倍,知道吧!」
「那你孩子多難堪呐!」
美國父親:「我也知道,我也很難受,但是為了他能夠去面對這個真實的世界。萬一我突然死了呢?我的房子已經交回銀行去了,那他怎麼面對人生、他怎麼繳房租?誰會給他打八折呢?」
中國父親一聽:「欸,是這麼回事啊。我覺得你這個美國父親說的也有道理。」
無論哪個國家的父親,都是希望讓自己的孩子能夠有一個美好的人生。但如何讓孩子早一點長大、成熟,能夠擔當,去創造自己的人生價值和生活?做父母的要多培養孩子的生活能力和創造能力,這個不是沒有愛,而是更愛。

「Is this loving or hurting him?」
There were two fathers on a long-haul flight – an American and a Chinese – seated next to each other. The Chinese father was on his way to visit his son in America and they had a conversation;
American father: “.. to visit your son, is he well?
Chinese father: “Yes, I’m going to buy him a house, find him a job and a life-partner.”
American father: “You might as well eat for him too.”
Chinese father: “Well, do you have any children?”
American father: “Yes.”
Chinese father: “How old is your child?”
American father: “Already 25 years old!”
Chinese father: “Well, do you not like your child?”
American father: “I do, and because I love him, I made him move out and not stay at home. If he’s above 20 years old and wants to stay at home, I’d charge him rent.”
Chinese father: “This is too much. You are exploiting your child and not behaving like a father at all. How could you have the decency to collect rent from your own son?”
American father: “I have given him a 20% discount. If he rents a place outside, he’d have to pay double the amount!”
Chinese father: “How awkward this is for your child!”
American father: “I know, I’m also uncomfortable about this, but it’s to demonstrate to him the reality of this world. What if I were to die suddenly? My house would be repossessed by the bank, how is he going to face life and pay for the rent? Who’s going to provide him discounted rent?”
Chinese father: “Oh, so this is the rationale. I think the American approach of fathers towards their children also makes sense.”
Regardless of which country you are from, fathers always hope that their children will have a good life. How do parents help their children grow up quickly, mature well, learn to take charge, and create their own values and livelihood? Parents need to nurture their children’s ability to fend for themselves and develop their creativity – this is not merely blind affection, but true love.

【菩提健康百寶箱】—糖尿病的照顧 有…
【菩提健康百寶箱】—糖尿病的照顧
有一種病最怕「甜蜜的誘惑」,它就是糖尿病。糖尿病由於胰島素分泌失常,免疫系統紊亂,經常會伴隨著可怕的併發症,例如:眼睛疾病、腎臟、心臟、血管、神經等…。
.
自然循環,事出皆有因。
糖尿病的成因有很多,「糖份」吃過多也是其中因素之一。
我在緬甸的時候,發現這個國家,他們的飲食習慣就是使用大量的糖,所以不少緬甸人有高血糖的現象。
.
糖尿病在「飲食」上可以注意哪些呢?
1. 盡量不吃葡萄糖、蔗糖、蜜糖等製品,例如蛋糕、糖果等。
2. 少喝果汁、沖泡式復合加工食品;主食改吃小米、小麥、糙米、蕎麥。
3. 豆類的含糖量比麵粉、大米要低許多。
4. 蔬菜中含糖少的有黃瓜、南瓜、番茄、苦瓜、洋蔥、四季豆、包菜、竹筍、白菜、芹菜、豆芽;水果則有芭樂、蘋果、梨子、草莓、木瓜、櫻桃都適合食用。
5. 堅果的含糖量也不高,能量很強,像是腰果、芝麻、核桃、榛子等,適量的食用都非常適合拿來補充營養。
6. 另外,不要飲酒,還有使用降糖藥物的人要注意預防低血糖的發生。
.
想擺脫糖尿病的糾纏,最重要的是必需多健身、運動。
我認識一位女同修,她因為患上糖尿病造成嚴重下肢癱瘓,她癱在床上已經很長時間,除了不能行動走路、眼睛也看不見了,每天只能癱在床上給人侍候,後來經人介紹菩提功法,她修練了幾個月後,竟然可以下床自己運動了,想想當初,她那個身體要是真的不動,可能二、三個月也就走了。過了十幾年,現在還在禪堂當義工服務,帶著大家一起練大光明呢。
.
我在緬甸做過試驗,發現走「八卦內功」對糖尿病,也有著非常卓越的健身效果,許多同修在堅持走八卦一段時間後,再回醫院檢查,都讓醫生非常驚訝于他們的改變,醫生慢慢減藥了,甚至不需要再吃藥,血糖幾乎恢復正常了。
.
所以,歡迎有糖尿病和高血糖的人都來走八卦吧!
願大家一起走出健康、走出快樂,走出重生的生命!

備註:
*禪修的效果會因人而異。
*菩提禪修不提倡自行停藥、減藥,請遵循醫囑。

#糖尿病、#高血糖、#八卦內功、#糖尿病、#養生、#長壽rnrn【Bodhi Meditation Health Treasure Chest】 — Diabetic Care
There is a disease that is most ‘fearful’ of “sweet temptations” – it is diabetes. Diabetes is due to defective insulin secretion and immune system disorders. It is often accompanied by adverse complications affecting the eyes, kidneys, heart, blood vessels, nerves and so on.
When natural circulatory systems are disrupted, there must be a cause.
For diabetes, there are many causes – excessive sugar consumption is one of them.
When I was in Myanmar, I found that their eating habits includes a lot of high sugar content food. As a result many people of Myanmar have high blood sugar levels.
What should diabetics pay attention to and strive for in their diet?
1. Try to limit glucose, sucrose, honey and other products such as cakes, candies and the like.
2. Drink less juice, instant, re-constituted and processed foodstuffs; on staple foods, switch to millet, wheat, brown rice, and buckwheat.
3. Consume legumes that have much lower sugar content to that of flour and rice.
4. Consume suitable greens and fruits. Vegetables that contain less sugar include cucumber, pumpkin, tomatoes, bitter-gourd, onion, four season beans, cabbage, bamboo shoots, Chinese cabbages, celery, and bean sprouts; fruit examples include guava, apples, pears, strawberries, papaya and cherries.
5. Supplement nutrition with appropriate amounts of nuts such as cashews, sesame seeds, walnuts and hazelnuts (except for those with nut allergies). Nuts are high in energy and have low sugar content.
6. Lastly, do not consume alcohol; people who use hypoglycemic drugs should pay attention to hypoglycemia (low sugar condition).
To steer clear of diabetes’ predicaments, it is vital that one builds up the body and also exercise regularly.
I knew a female practitioner who was paralyzed and lying on the bed for extended periods due to diabetes. She was immobile and blind due to the disease. As a result, she had to be attended to for her needs. Subsequently, she was introduced to Bodhi Meditation and after practicing for a couple of months, she could get off the bed and even exercise on her own. Thinking back, had she remained immobile, she could have departed from this world within two to three months. Now after more than 10 years, she is volunteering at Bodhi Meditation Center and also leading a group to practice the Meditation of Greater Illumination together.
I conducted an experiment in Myanmar and found that Energy Bagua has exceptional benefits against diabetes. Several Energy Bagua practitioners who had persevered with their practice for an extended period of time surprised their doctors with their physical improvements during their regular medical checkups. Gradually, their doctors reduced their prescribed medication; some no longer need medication as their blood sugar levels became normalized.
We welcome people with diabetes and high blood sugar levels to join us in Energy Bagua! May everyone practice to obtain great health, happiness, and rejuvenated life!
Note:
* The effects of meditation vary from person to person.
* Bodhi Meditation does not advocate that patients reduce or even stop taking their prescribed medication; they should follow the advice from their doctor.
