風水師不敢說的秘密 . . 我給大家講一…
風水師不敢說的秘密
.
.
我給大家講一個真實的故事。
.
一個富豪買了塊地，建了獨棟別墅，寬廣的院子裡還種了許多棵百年的荔枝樹。他的朋友就勸他找個有名的風水先生看看。原本不怎麼信風水的富豪也接受了朋友的好意，專程去請個很有名氣的風水大師來看房子。
.
富豪在火車站接到大師後就直奔別墅而去，一路上，只要後頭有車要超車，這富豪都會避讓。大師笑道：「開車挺穩當呢！」富豪和氣地回：「會超車的多半有急事，我們可不好再耽誤他們。」
.
車子開進鎮上後，街道更加狹窄，富豪也放慢了車速。突然，前面有一名小孩嬉笑著從巷子裡衝了出來，富豪的腳穩穩地踩住刹車，小孩笑嘻嘻地跑過去以後，他並沒有立刻踩著油門前行，而是繼續停在原地，不多久，又有一名小孩衝了出來，追趕著先前那名小孩而去。
大師驚訝地問：「你怎麼知道後頭還有小孩？」
富豪說：「小孩子都是追追打打的，光他一個人可不會笑得如此開心。」
大師聽後也豎起了大拇指：「您真有心哪！」
.
到了自家的別墅，豪富下車後拿著鑰匙準備開門時，後院突然飛起了幾隻鳥，還聽見了一陣笑鬧聲，見狀，富豪便停在了門口、表情歉然地向大師說：「麻煩大師在此稍待一會兒。」
大師：「有什麼事嗎？」
富豪：「現在我家後院肯定有小孩在偷摘我們院內荔枝樹上的荔枝，我們現在若開門進去，小孩們自然會驚慌逃跑，萬一掉下來出事就不好了，先讓他們摘一會兒。」
大師靜默片刻後，回了：「你送我回火車站吧，這房子的風水不用看了！」
這次輪到富豪訝然了：「大師何出此言？」
「先生，有您在的地方，都是風水吉地。」
.
其實，一般的風水方法並不能使人們的運氣、命運得到根本上的改變。聽我這麼說，你一定會想問我怎樣才能改變我們的這個運氣或者是命運呢？那應該就是慈悲的能量與功德，才能使一個人有好運氣。因為，慈悲的能量可以化解一切災難、改變命運、迎來吉祥，所以我們要多多行善。

#風水、#慈悲、#富豪、#命運rnrnThe undisclosed secret of Feng Shui masters
Let me tell you a true story.
A wealthy man bought a piece of land and built a detached family villa. His large courtyard was also planted with many hundred-year-old lychee trees. His friend persuaded him to engage the services of a famous geomancer. Originally not receptive to geomancy, the wealthy man nonetheless appreciated his friend’s kind intention and paid a special visit to invite a very famous Fengshui master to read the feng shui his house.
After receiving the master, they both went straight to the villa. On the way, the wealthy man would always give way to an overtaking car. The master smiled, “Your driving is most steady!” The wealthy man replied cordially, “.. well, let’s not delay these overtaking drivers, as they could be experiencing emergencies.”
When the car entered the town, the streets were narrower and the wealthy man had to slow down. Suddenly, a child who was laughing dashed out of the alley in front of them. The wealthy man pressed firmly on the brakes. The child smiled and ran past. Thereafter, the driver paused slightly instead of stepping on the gas. Soon, another child sprang out in pursuit of the earlier one.
The master was surprised, and asked, “How did you know that there were children behind?” 」
The wealthy man replied, “Children are typically chasing and playing, otherwise they would not be laughing so happily.”
After hearing this, the master agreed with a thumb-up, elaborating, “You really have a kind heart!”
Upon arriving at the villa, the wealthy man alighted with the key, ready to open the door. From the backyard, a few birds suddenly flew up, accompanied by a burst of laughter. The wealthy man saw the situation, and decided to stop at the gate. Apologetic, he turned to the master, and said, “..(may) the master stay here and wait for a while.”
Master asked, “What’s the matter?”
The wealthy man responded, “Now, there must be kids at my backyard stealing lychees from our orchard. If we open the gate now, the children will panic in a bid to escape, and it will not be good if they fall, so let them have a moment to pick the fruits.”
After some silence, the master said, “You can just send me back to the railway station. There’s no need to read the Fengshui of this house!”
The wealthy man was taken aback. He asked, “Why is that so, master?”
“Sir, wherever you are, the place will enjoy auspicious Fengshui energy” was the reply.
In reality, the general geomancy approach does not allow people’s luck or destiny to be fundamentally changed. Upon hearing this, you must be curious to understand how then can we change our luck or destiny. That should be premised on the energy and merit of compassion in order for a person to enjoy good luck. This is because the energy of compassion can resolve all calamities, change the destiny and usher in good fortune; hence we must perform more good deeds.

狐狸與甘露 . . 前幾天有位同修和我說…
狐狸與甘露
.
.
前幾天有位同修和我說：「在念佛班時跟著大家念佛念的特別專注，還一度專注到進入禪境，突然就感覺到嘴裡的唾液好甘甜，當慢慢咽下去時感覺特別清涼，非常美妙。」這位同修問這是怎麼回事呢？
我說，那我來給你講個故事吧：
有一位修禪的師父，人們都稱他為「渾元禪師」。他住在一個遠離村莊的山裡頭，曾獲得有修為的老禪師指點坐禪的方法。
.
他起初打坐時，可以數小時不下座，到後來一坐就是十天、二十天。常常發生有供養的人來給禪師送飯，半個月過去供養人在拿新的飯菜來時，發現舊的飯菜仍在碗中，碗裡面的飯菜已經乾了、放壞了，但禪師依舊還沒睜眼醒過來。
.
有一次，供養人又來替換新飯了，他看到這個禪師不是正面打坐，而是側面彎著頭，嘴角也撇著，口水就這麼流了出來。有一隻狐狸，就躺在下面張嘴接禪師流出來的口水。那供養人自然是趕快找一根小棍子把這個狐狸趕走。等狐狸跑了，這個禪師才慢慢醒過來，才知一個多月過去了。
.
這個供養人就說：「禪師啊，我看到一隻狐狸，在您坐禪的時候張著嘴去接您嘴裡流出來的口水，剛被我趕跑了，您坐禪時可要小心，要不我找幾個鄉親來保護您？」
.
禪師說：「哦，不用。」禪師假裝不知道，其實心裡是知道的。
.
這一天晚上，接口水的狐狸托夢給這位供養人。他在夢中看到一隻狐狸跑到他家裡來，這只狐狸一晃身——哇！就變身成一個很帥的帥哥：「你不要找人害我，我並沒有去傷害渾元禪師，我是在借他的修行來圓滿我的修行。反正他的口水流出來也是浪費掉了，我就接他的口水來增加修為。」
.
在夢中，那個供養人就問它：「那你接那個口水對你有什麼好處嗎？」
.
狐狸說：「那當然了，我從動物修成人形已有一定的修為境界，當我再吃到修行人口中流出來的甘露，我的修為不但不會退轉，還能再往上飛升，使我修行的境界可以超越肉體，隨時能隨心幻化。」
.
這類型的筆記小說在古代不少見。那渾元禪師嘴裡流出來的甘露，是因他的真誠所致，觀世音菩薩賜甘露給他，這在我們中國古代的傳說故事裡被稱為「還魂丹」、「繼命丹」。
.
所以，當真誠地修行時，我們嘴裡也能產生甘露，使身體的一些病痛消失，讓我們獲得健康長壽。

狐狸與甘露
Fox and nectar
A few days ago, a fellow practitioner mentioned to me: “I was really focused while chanting in class. At one point, I was so focused that I entered the zen state, and my saliva tasted sweet and cool. It was a wonderful feeling.” He wondered what this was about.
In reply, I told this story:
There was once a meditation master called Hun Yuan. He lived deep in the mountains, far away from civilization. When he was younger, he received pointers on meditation from an accomplished meditation master.
In the beginning, he could remain in the seated meditation pose for a few hours. Eventually he could meditate non-stop for ten, even twenty days. A person who regularly offered food to the meditation master often found the food that he had brought a fortnight ago remained untouched. The food had dried out and turned bad, but the master had not opened his eyes.
One day, the person arrived as usual to deliver food to the master. This time, the master was not sitting in his usual upright meditation posture. Instead, his head was bowed, his mouth was open, and saliva was dripping out. A fox was lying on the ground with his mouth open to receive the dripping saliva. The person quickly grabbed a stick and chased the fox away. Eventually the master regained awareness and realized that a month has passed.
Immediately the person told him what happened with the fox, and advised him to be careful. He even offered to get a few villagers to stand guard over the master while he was meditating. The master politely declined. He did not say anything, but he knew very well what was going on.
That night, the fox appeared in the dreams of the person who had chased him away. The fox ran into his home and transformed into a handsome lad. The lad spoke: “Please don’t get people to hurt me. I was not going to harm Master Hun Yuan. I was just leveraging on his cultivation to improve my own. His saliva was going to be wasted anyway, so I swallowed his saliva to help me reach the next stage of my cultivation.”
The person asked the fox in his dream: “What benefit do you get from swallowing his saliva?”
The fox replied: “My cultivation is already at the level that allows me to take the human form. When I swallow the nectar that drips out of an accomplished practitioner, not only will my cultivation not deteriorate, it will improve by leaps and bounds. I will then be able to progress beyond physical form and transform into anything by using the power of thought.”
Such stories were common in the olden days. The nectar was a result of Master Hun Yuan’s sincerity, which had moved Guanyin Bodhisattva into bestowing upon him the nectar. This is also commonly referred to as the “pill of revival after death” or the “pill of longevity” in Chinese legends.
Hence, when we cultivate with sincerity, we will also be blessed with nectar in our mouths, and this has the ability to cure diseases in our bodies and bless us with good health and longevity.
