使用嬰兒背巾需注意！
.
.
很多家長都會用背巾背裹嬰兒，但是這樣做有可能會傷害到嬰兒，怎麼回事呢？原來，2歲以下的嬰兒腦部發育不完全，如果過度搖晃，就可能造成頭部受損或腦出血。家長在用背巾背嬰兒的時候，如果用力顛簸、劇烈搖晃，會導致孩子顱內損傷。不止是背巾，大人在逗孩子的時候，也不能用力猛烈地晃動孩子，或者是拋舉孩子，這都是不安全的。

「孩子的未來在於你？」 . . 有個同修…
「孩子的未來在於你？」
.
.
有個同修給我寫信，說她們夫妻倆都失業了，孩子已16、17歲，很貪玩，讀書分數較差。她為了要讓孩子考上理想大學，每天在佛菩薩像前獻上一柱清香、供兩三顆蘋果，每天堅持的念佛祈福好幾個小時。
.
大概過了三個多月，孩子高考放榜，果真高中榜首了。他給媽媽拿著那個金榜題名的錄取單。哎喲，他媽媽：「哇」一聲就歡喜地哭了出來，因為她生命中的希望啊，終於看到了！她終於等到了這個希望。
.
兒子告訴父母親：「我考試的時候，看著考題怎麼感覺我都會，也不覺得害怕，我考試從來沒這樣輕鬆過，這回應該能考上了。」
.
所以，為了讓你的後代更好，最直接的方法就是在佛前真誠地去祈請、去供奉，為孩子念佛。
.
今天，在吉祥的藥師佛誕日子前後，讓我們一起來《為子女念佛》，也為自己最愛的親人一起念佛祈福吧，共同探討如何讓自己，和子女的人生更精彩、更吉祥。

喜歡就請分享~
祝福朋友們都能夠吉祥、自在、幸福、快樂！

.
A fellow practitioner wrote to me that they, husband and wife, were both unemployed. Their child was already 16 or 17 years old but very playful and poor in studies. Hoping that her child would be accepted into an ideal university, she offered incense and apples before Buddha and bodhisattvas on a daily basis and adhered to daily chanting ritual for several hours.
.
When result was released three months later, her son topped his cohort. The mother was happily surprised and burst into tears. She finally saw hope in life.
.
The son told his parents, “I was not nervous during the examinations because I was able to answer all the questions. I have never felt so relaxed before. I think I should be able to gain admission into university.”
.
So, in order for your descendants to have a better future, the most direct method is to chant sincerely and make offerings on their behalf.
.
Since today is near the auspicious birthday of the Medicine Buddha, let us chant for our children as well as for our love ones. Let us also explore how we and our children can lead a more wonderful and auspicious life.
If you like this post, please share it with your friends.
May you enjoy auspiciousness, peace and happiness!

煩惱問與答！！ . 最近有個同修提問： …
煩惱問與答！！
.
最近有個同修提問：
「人們煩惱的問題如何解決？」
.
答：「無論修行多麼好，煩惱還會繼續。」
其實，人類百分之八十的煩惱來自於情感。
而這些煩惱也源於人類複雜的智慧，如果智慧沒有一個選擇方向時，就容易精神錯亂。
.
那麼該如何面對和對治煩惱呢？
對於大多數人的精神煩惱，有一個特別好的方法：
「第一，知足，第二，感恩。」
.
當這樣的意念重複的時候，原本堅持的某些想法會漸漸變淡，當你不再堅持某些想法時，智慧自然就出來了，當問題解決了，煩惱自然也沒有了。
.
Problems – Q&A
.
Recently a fellow practitioner asked me: “How can we resolve our problems?”
.
My reply: “Regardless of how accomplished a person is in his or her practice, there will always be problems.”
In fact, eighty percent of a human’s problems arise due to emotions. These problems also stem from the complex intelligence of mankind which, when bereft of a direction, will go into confused state thereby causing the person to become mentally disturbed.
.
So how do we face our troubles and resolve them? I have a very good way that can handle most people’s problems:
.
「First, be content. Second, be grateful. 」
When you keep repeating this thought to yourself, you will find that certain ideas and opinions which you held on very tightly previously will begin to fade. When you begin to let go of certain thoughts, wisdom will naturally arise; once problems get resolved using that wisdom, troubles will naturally disappear.

一輪明月的故事。 . 有一位小偷在夜晚悄…
一輪明月的故事。
.
有一位小偷在夜晚悄悄的跑進了廟裡，這間廟平時香火鼎盛，小偷心想這廟香香火如此鼎盛，裡面的香火錢應該也不少，廟裡的寶貝應該也很多。現在社會景氣這麼差、失業的人有這麼多我進去偷一點寶貝、香火錢菩薩應該會原諒的。
夜深人靜，夜晚的地靈特別靈敏，此時小偷進入廟裡的聲音已經驚動大德住持，廟裡的住持知道，廟裡根本無東西可偷啊⋯⋯⋯，因為我們的廟是不設功德箱、我們的菩薩也不掛金牌，小偷你根本就是走錯廟了。
.
小偷走遍了寺廟找不到功德箱，也找不到金牌、找不到任何的寶貝很失望的正想要離去，走到廟的大門時赫然發現住持站在門口，住持拿著袈裟對著小偷說：孩子夜深了小心著涼，廟裡沒有什麼東西可以送你，這袈裟就送給你讓你取暖吧！
.
小偷拿著袈裟頭也不回趕緊往外跑，此時夜晚的月亮又圓又亮，住持抬起頭仰望著皎潔的明月，嘆了一口氣說：真希望把這一輪明月送給你。
.
天亮的時候禪師開啟廟的大門時，發現地上昨晚送給小偷的袈裟已經整整齊齊的摺疊放在門口，禪師微笑的說了一句：終於把一輪明月送給你了。
.
人生何嘗不是如此，有人正向思考跳脫漩窩，有人卻從此一蹶不振，成了趴趴熊，任憑「慾望」就像小偷一樣，偷走我們如月亮般透亮的心；而貪、嗔、癡就像鳥雲一樣吞噬了月亮的光芒。
.
因此，唯有持續不間斷用真理灌溉，才能找回心中的明月啊。

#一輪明月、 #禪宗公案、 #透徹、 #良心rnrnThe story of the veritable moon
.
A thief quietly sneaked into the temple in the night. The temple is usually filled with thick incense offered by its followers. The thief thought that this temple must also be rich in donations, and contain bountiful treasures. As the social economy was in a downturn with many unemployed people, the thief felt that even if he stole a little of the donations, the Bodhisattva would forgive him. It was the dead of the night, and the spirits of the earth were particular sensitive. At that instant, the sound of the thief entering into the temple premise alerted the Abbot, who was well-aware that there was actually nothing in the temple that was worthy of theft.., because there was no donation box, no jewelry that adorns the Bodhisattva, so the thief had targeted the wrong temple.
.
The thief trespassed the entire temple grounds, yet unable to find the donation box, the gold jewelry or any treasure. Disappointed, he decided to abandon his mission and leave. As he headed to the temple entrance, he was astounded to find the Abbot by the door, clutching a set of Buddhist robe. The abbot said to the thief, “child, the night is cold, we do not have anything of value at the temple for you, may this robe keep you warm!”
.
The thief grabbed the robe, and dashed out of the temple without looking back. At that moment, the night was illuminated by the round and bright moon. The Abbot looked up at the luminous moon, sighed and remarked, “how I wish I can give you this veritable moon”.
.
At daybreak when the Abbot unlatched the temple door, he found the same robe that he had given the thief the previous night neatly folded by the doorway. He smiled, and made the statement, “I’d finally given you the veritable moon”.
.
Isn’t our lives often mired in such predicaments? Some people contemplate escape from their whirlpool; some are paralyzed and limp like a stricken bear. The luminous moon that we all once possessed, are unconsciously and slowly being obscured by the dark clouds, and eventually being swallowed completely. Desires are like thieves that steal our hearts; greed, anger, and delusion are like clouds of birds that devour our mind, and only through conscientious cultivation of the way/ truth can we re-discover the veritable moon in our heart.

其實佛法說的，首先是「生存之道」，之後才是「解脫之道」。
.
要想活得好，心胸要開闊，要跨越自己這個小我；要跨越空間來做事情，跨越時間來想事情，才能更完整、更長久地獲得利益，獲得一切美好、富貴、吉祥、長壽、健康。

Let go of greed and unlock your wisdom
.
Buddha Dharma is primarily about “The way of life”; followed by “The way to liberation”.
.
In order to live well, we must be magnanimous and overcome self-centeredness. We should analyze and do things irrespective of the constraints of space and time. Only then, can we access to wholesome and long term benefits, attaining beauty, prosperity, auspiciousness, longevity and health.

秋冬怎麼吃出好體質？
.
.
立冬過後，天氣轉寒，很多人都變成了「起床困難戶」，這對冬季養生是很不利的，人體要保持適當的運動量，以增強身體的抵抗力和禦寒力。民間有「立冬蘿蔔賽蔘湯，不勞醫生開藥方」的說法，今天我就來給大家奉上一桌蘿蔔宴。
.
一、 泉水蘿蔔：白蘿蔔去皮切厚片，用礦泉水（可用純淨水代替）煮軟煮透，瀝乾水份，在醬油中蘸一遍，在平底鍋中用油雙面香煎，清口又軟爛。
二、 拌蘿蔔皮：把蘿蔔洗淨後，皮削成約3至4毫米厚的小片，放入醬油、醋、鹽、辣椒油、香菜末，拌勻就行了。
三、 炸丸子：紅皮白心的大紅蘿蔔，含水量較少，適合用來做餡，也可以與麵和在一起，添加五香粉等調味料，炸成蘿蔔丸子。
四、 青蘿蔔粉絲湯：青蘿蔔切絲，粉絲泡發，油鍋放入蔥、薑爆香，倒入熱水（注意水是熱的），水開後，放入蘿蔔絲、粉絲，煮熟後加鹽、胡椒粉，大冷天的喝上一碗，渾身熱乎乎的，好舒服。
五、醬燒蘿蔔：紅蘿蔔切小塊，炒鍋倒入少量食用油，薑末、蔥末爆香，倒入蘿蔔略炒，再倒入用水稀釋的黃豆醬，翻炒後稍燜一會兒，燜透入味後就可以起鍋了。
今年陽曆的11月7日，為立冬節氣，也預示著冬季的開始，想要在冬季前補足身體所需的元氣，就來吃些蘿蔔做的料理吧！大家還有什麼蘿蔔美食，一起分享上來吧！

At the start of winter (Lidong solar term), the weather turns cold and many of us have difficulties getting out of bed. This is unfavorable for maintaining good health in winter. The body needs some appropriate exercise to enhance its immunity system and resistance to coldness. It is a common saying among folks, ” when radish soup is served at the start of winter, doctors do not need to prescribe medicine”. Today, I present a table of radish banquet for everyone.
1) Spring water radish: peel the white radish and cut into thick slices. Use mineral water (or pure water) to boil till soft. Drain the water, dip in soy sauce and pan -fry both sides of the radish, giving a refreshing and soft taste.
2) Mixing of radish skin: Wash the radish, peel the radish skin into small pieces of 3 to 4 mm thick each. Add soy sauce, vinegar, salt, chili oil, parsley and mix well.
3) Fried radish ball: The red radish which contains less water , are suitable to make fillings. It can be mixed with flour, spice powder and other seasonings to make fried radish balls.
4) Green radish soup with vermicelli: shred the green radish, soak the vermicelli ( the transparent noodle). Heat the oil and stir fry the onion, ginger to bring out the fragrance. Then pour in hot water. When the water is boiling hot, add radish, vermicelli. When cooked, add salt and pepper. Having a bowl of boiling hot soup during cold weather helps to keep the body warm and comfortable.
This year, Lidong falls on November 7 of the Gregorian calendar and it indicates the beginning of winter. If you are thinking of strengthening your body before winter, have some radish dishes. If you have other recipes of radish cuisine, please share it!

空間魔法師教您改造居家
Space wizard teaches you to transform your home
In a land scarce big city, young people are unable to afford big houses. Thus, they have to settle for smaller ones. In Hong Kong, there are small houses that are only 8 square meters in size. Fortunately, there are people who design space saving furniture that can be “hidden” away when not in use and “transformed” back when you need it.

要吃食物，不要吃「食品」！ . . 近年…
要吃食物，不要吃「食品」！
.
.
近年來，食品安全問題連環爆出，過多的食品添加劑造成了人體的危害，讓許多人開始反思，我們到底怎麼吃才健康呢？在這裡我要給大家一些建議：我們要吃「食物」，不要吃「食品」！
.
「食物」，就是保持天然樣貌而未經加工的東西；而「食品」則是經過人為加工、添加了其他東西的，比如罐頭、醃漬物、飲料、乳製品等等。
.
許多食品為了方便保存、增添風味及視覺美觀，往往會放入化學添加物，如 ：香料、糖精、防腐劑、漂白劑、色素等等。
.
像是人造飲料、人造果汁，第一個裡面有防腐劑、第二個可能添加了一些我們不知道的東西，比如塑化劑等等，商人們希望這個果汁做出來像糖漿一樣那麼黏糊糊的，就特別容易致癌。
.
還有的小孩子喜歡飲料瓶裡出來很多泡沫，泡沫像一座小山一樣在手裡，覺得很好玩。但這到底是什麼東西啊？有沒有想過，飲料當中添加了什麼，沒人清楚，只有老闆知道。
.
包括今天吃的罐頭也好、玻璃瓶中的鹹菜也好，是不是都如實的標示出它所放的添加劑？還有一些火腿腸，有的商人為了經濟利益，放的是病豬、死豬，什麼東西都可能往裡頭放。包括今天去餐館，你真的就那麼放心的吃啊！
.
所以，我提醒大家，為了不因吃造成自我毒害，我們自己要多勤快點，盡量在家自己做飯，少吃外頭加工的食品和飲料，多吃天然的蔬果最安心、最健康。
.
#食品安全、#食物、#果汁、#飲料、#加工食品rnrnEat natural food and not processed food!
In recent years, there have been several shocking revelations about food safety issues. This has create awareness on the dangers of processed food and the damages that additives can cause to the human health. People start to wonder: What should we eat in order to be healthy? Let me share some suggestion with all of you: Eat natural food and stay away from processed food!
Natural food refers to those which retain their natural look and have not been processed; “processed food” has been artificially processed with artificial additives added in them. Examples of processed food are canned food, pickled food, soft drinks and milk products.
Chemical additives are usually added to food for preservation, to intensify the flavors or to improve their aesthetic appeal. Examples of additives include: flavoring, artificial sweeteners, preservatives, bleaching agents and colorings etc.
Artificial beverages and artificial fruit juices, for example, usually contain preservatives. They may even contain additives that we do not know of, some of which – such as plasticizer which may have been added to increase the viscosity of the fruit juices – are carcinogenic.
Some children also like drinks with lots of bubbles in the containers. They find it fun to see the bubbles overflow from the bottles onto their hands like a tiny hill. What is it that actually caused these bubbles? Have you ever wondered what has been added into the drinks? Nobody seems to know; only the creator of the drink does.
What about canned food or pickled vegetables in glass bottles – are the additives spelt out clearly on the food labels? There are also ham and sausages – some of the business owners even add in pork from diseased pigs to increase their profit margins. Even those respectable-looking restaurants; can you really eat with confidence?
Hence, I would like to remind everyone to put in more effort to have more home-cooked meals instead of consuming processed food and drinks in restaurants. Eat more naturally-grown fruits and vegetables – as these are the safest and also the healthiest.
