【天地有情,生養萬物!】
.
.
很多年前,有一部日本的影片,內容在追蹤拍攝一個狼群的家庭。
.
這群狼生活的地區 ,附近有一些獵戶根本不出門打獵,就在自己家裡養了一些雞,和羊讓狼知道,並且設下了不少的捕獸夾和陷阱要來捕捉狼。狼心中可是一清二楚。別看狼是動物,其實牠什麼都知道,某些時候比人還聰明。
.
在一個下著大雪的冬天,大雪封山,有個狼爸爸的小狼崽得病了,奄奄一息,沒有食物。那個狼爸爸,就在獵戶家門外徘徊了幾個小時,你可以看得出牠的身體語言:「哎呀,我知道危險重重,我不能往前踏一步。」那個爪子拿起來,落,不能落,來回溜躂溜躂,反復徘徊徘徊。
.
最後想想牠的狼孩子那種痛苦和饑餓,狼兩行眼淚流出來了,開始小心翼翼地往前走。牠進去不是自殺,只是希望把那只雞偷出來餵牠的孩子。結果雞是咬到了,往回衝的路上,因為找不到自己的腳印,慌不擇路,竟被一個大夾子給夾住了牠的一條後腿。牠拼命掙扎地把那條腿拽下來,其實,牠根本就不可能掙脫開那沉重的大夾子。牠的一條腿因此沒了,牠拼著最後一口氣用前腿爬著,爬回去,想著孩子還在家裡等著,可惜爬到半路失血過多就死了。
.
真是很感人的故事,很多動物我們雖不瞭解牠們,但誰能說只有人有情呢?
.
讓我們在本週六,一起來探討「慈悲的力量」吧!

【Love from Heaven and Earth, Birth and Nurtures All Life! 】

Many years ago, there was a Japanese film which tracked a family of wolves.

In that region where the wolves lived, some hunters did not go out hunting. Instead, they kept some chickens and sheep at home and let the wolves know about them. They then set up traps to capture the wolves. However, the wolves were aware of the trap. Do not view the wolf as just another animal. In fact, it knows everything. Sometimes it is smarter than people.

In a snow-covered winter where the snow was so heavy that it was impossible to leave the mountains, a father wolf had a sickly little wolf who was dying from hunger. The father wolf hesitated for a few hours outside the hunter’s house. You could read its body language: “Oh dear, I know that danger lies ahead. I can’t step forward.” He lifted up his paw wanting to take another step forward but did not, continuing to pace back and forth repeatedly.

Finally, when he thought about the pain and hunger of its little wolf, two lines of tears flowed out his eyes and he began to move forward with caution. His intention was not suicidal but to steal a chicken to feed his children. In the end, he managed to catch a chicken in its mouth. However, on the way back, because he couldn’t retrace his own footprints, he took a wrong step and his hind leg was caught in a big leghold trap. He struggled to free that leg. In fact, it is impossible to break away from that heavy grip. As a result, its leg broke on the trap. With his last breath, the wolf tried to crawl back on his forelegs while thinking of his child who was still waiting at home. Unfortunately, he died on the way back due to excessive blood lost.

It is a very touching story. Although we do not understand many animals, who are we to say that only people have feelings?

Let’s discuss “The Power of Compassion” this Saturday.

《六度之二:持戒》
.
什麼是「戒」,對我們有甚麼幫助呢?
「戒」就像是一個國家的律法。對於一個守法的人來說,再多的規定都是多餘的,因為他根本不會去觸犯到,反而因為有了律法的保護,更能心安理得的生活。
.
那麼修行中的「持戒」,和遵守國家律法,有什麼異曲同工之妙呢?
一起來聽聽我的說法吧!!

The Second of the Six Perfections: Morality
.
What are “precepts”? How do they help us?
“Precepts” are like law of a country. For a law-abiding person, no amount of rules is superfluous as he will not offend it. Instead, he will live a more comfortable life because of the protection the law provides.
.
So what is the difference between observing precepts in our cultivation and obeying the law of a country? Let’s listen to what I have to say!

不怕路途遙,就怕你堅持!!
.
從前有個年輕人,他想去遠方跟隨一位有名的大師學習,可是遲遲決定不了。
他的父親覺察到他的心情,就問他:「你為什麼猶豫不決啊?」
.
年輕人回答說:「我擔心我離開太遠,萬一您和母親生病了,我不能在身邊照顧您們。」
父親伸手指指窗外說:「你看大樹上的那隻大鳥,當小鳥長大一些的時候,大鳥就把小鳥踢出鳥窩。如果你在我跟前一直猶猶豫豫,我只能也把你踢出家門!」
.
年輕人還是猶豫不決:「學習的路途這麼遙遠,我怕路途艱險,還沒有到達,就碰上強盜或是誤入黑店……。」
.
父親說:「你再看天空中翱翔的大雁,從來沒有想過路途上會不會有暴風雨,所以不要為未來擔憂,如果你此刻不敢上路,就永遠看不到真正的未來!」
.
年輕人似乎堅定一些了,但還是有些擔憂。他弱弱地說:「我還怕我自己太笨,不能學有所成,會很丟人……。」
.
父親繼續鼓勵道:「你看池塘裡的王八(鱉),牠們一旦咬到什麼東西,就絕不鬆口,對自己堅持的東西鐵了心,從不輕易放棄。」
.
最後父親告訴他:「這個世界上聰明人很多,但是能將自己立下的目標堅持到底的人卻不多,真正成功的往往是那些一諾千金的人。所以堅定信念,就沒有什麼是學不好的。」
.
想獲得成功,需要一份勇氣和堅持。
尤其是當面對挫折和困境時,只有不畏艱難,堅定信念,不輕易放棄,才能達到成功的彼岸。
.
「心」是這個世界最難穩定的東西。
「禪修」就是要將最容易變化的東西,修成穩定。
一個「穩定、堅持」到最後的人,做任何事情就容易成就。
——金菩提禪語

Worry not about the long journey. Persistence will bring you to your destination.
.
Once there lived a young man who wanted to travel to faraway lands to learn from a great Master. However, he remained undecided about making the trip.
Sensing the young man’s hesitation, his Father asked “Why have you not made up your mind?”
.
The young man replied “I am worried that if I am away and either you or Mother falls ill, I will not be around to look after you”.
Father pointed outside the window and explained “Look at that bird on the tree. When the chicks are grown, she will set them free from the nest. If you continue to hesitate, I will have to boot you from my house!”
.
The young man continues to hesitate “The road to travel is far and treacherous. I am worried that the journey will be difficult and I will meet with many obstacles”.
.
Father said with encouragement “Look up at the wild goose flying high up in the sky. He does not worry about meeting a storm during his flight. So do not worry needlessly about the future. If you do not start you journey, you will never know the real future”.
.
Although the young man was more determined after hearing his Father’s words, he still had some reservations. “I am worried that I am not smart and will not be a good learner. It will be so embarrassing if I fail”.
.
Father continues to encourage him “Look at the tortoise in the pond. When he latches onto something, he will never let go. Likewise, strengthen your resolve and do not give up easily!”
.
In his parting words, Father said “There are many smart people in this world but not many of them have the resolve to follow through with their commitments. The successful ones are those who are true to their words. So strengthen your resolve and nothing will be insurmountable”.
.
If you want to succeed, you will need courage and resolve. These are especially important when you are besieged with difficulties and obstacles. As long as you do not back down and stand firm to your beliefs, you will eventually emerge as the winner.
.
Your heart is the most difficult to hold steadfast.
Meditation is best suited for stabilizing such fluidity.
A person who is full of resolve and determination will always prevail and be successful in all his endeavors.

【新視頻發布】╴看破才能放下
.
當我們經歷了坎坷與挫折,不一定是壞事。怎麼說呢?
.
在我很小的時候,在中國北方都種╴小麥,通常是在秋天播種!播種之後,小麥就開始生根、發芽,當長出十公分高的時候,嚴酷的寒冬就來了,天氣很冷開始下雪,當雪把小麥全給覆蓋了。我擔心地問長輩們:「這樣會不會把小麥凍死啊?」長輩們說:「不用擔心,就是要讓這個冰冷去刺激它,明年開春之後,小麥才能更加茁壯地成長,而且這樣的小麥磨成麵粉才是最香的。如果小麥沒有經過嚴酷霜雪的歷練和刺激,吃在嘴裡就感覺不那麼香、就不好吃啦。」
.
所以,我們人體中其實還有好多潛在的能力,是可以被生活環境激發出來的。只有清淨下來,修到隨遇而安、不起煩惱,煩惱才可能開始消失,疾病也開始消失,得到真正的健康快樂。
.
今天,不管你是學佛還是學道,或者是這兩個都不學,而是真想讓自己的生命不被壞事給捆綁住,想要一生都過得幸福快樂的,這一段聊天內容,大家可以多聽幾遍、多看幾遍,相信大家會對事物的本源有所認識。
.
現在,請和我一起來聊聊《看破才能放下》,學習改變自己的生活,創造生命更高的境界。
.
喜歡就請分享,祝福大家吉祥如意!.

[Newly released]_Seeing through: The Only Way to Letting Go

Experiencing setbacks and obstacles may not be a bad thing. Why is that so?

In the place where I grew up in Northern China, wheat was the predominant crop. The adults would plant them during the autumn season, which was strange because winters were quite harsh there. It would usually start snowing when the seedlings were about ten centimeters tall. Before long, all the seedlings would be buried in the snow. Once, I asked the adults, “Won’t the seedlings freeze to death?” They replied, “Don’t worry. The cold is good for them. The iciness acts as stimulus to the seedlings, and they would grow even more robustly when spring arrives. From experience, the most fragrant and delicious wheat flour is derived from plants that have survived through harsh winters.”

Similarly, a tough environment can trigger the development of latent abilities in us – abilities which would otherwise have remained hidden. Troubles and illnesses will start to fade from our bodies when we are at ease. We can achieve happiness and health when we have mastered the ability to remain unperturbed no matter what happens.

Today’s discussion is for those of you who are learning dharma or following the Way. Even if you are doing neither, and your desire is simply to lead a carefree and happy life filled with good fortune, today’s discussion will benefit you too. Listen to it a few more times and you will gain a better understanding of the universal truth.

Please join me in the discussion of 【Seeing through: The Only Way to Letting Go】, as we learn to transform our destinies and attain higher spiritual realms in our lives.

I welcome you to share this post. May all enjoy good fortune and great auspiciousness!

樂高房屋
.
大家都玩過樂高積木,利用凸粒和凹洞的小方塊組合在一起,經過設計者的奇思妙想,拼接組合成各種不同的形狀。人們把這種思路帶到建築中,打造出了可以變換形狀和空間佈局的房屋,是不是挺有意思的呢?
