真誠,能夠驚天動地

母親曾經跟我去青海一個寺廟,她那時候的腿和手都受傷了,我記得。

青海有一個寺廟,他有個規矩,就是要繞著院外走最少一圈。當時的寺院建在山坡上,又大又莊嚴,繞寺院走一圈要兩個半小時。

我們幾個是二十多歲的小夥子,母親五十多歲了,途中有一尊觀世音菩薩塑像,她合十頂禮說:「我感覺觀音菩薩對我微笑,感覺菩薩真靈驗呐!」怎麼靈驗呢?我們都必須花上兩個半小時繞著寺院走一圈,母親竟然僅僅花了一個半小時,母親是用跑的。

年輕小夥子各個都很累,我問母親:「媽,您累嗎?您跑那麼快?」她望著我們說:「怎麼會累?菩薩托著你的腳走呢!」我們聽了好慚愧、好慚愧。

靈驗的秘訣,不是因為你供養了多少錢、供養多大的權利,才能夠得到菩薩的加持護佑。
是「真誠」,唯有用最「真誠的心」就能驚天動地。

Sincerity could have an efficacious impact.

My mother once visited a temple in Qinghai with me. At that time, I remember her legs and hands were injured.

At that temple in Qinghai, there is a rule that requires everyone to circumambulate the exterior of the temple grounds. As the magnificent and enormous temple is built on a hillside. Hence it will take at least two and a half hours to walk around the exterior temple grounds.

My mother, in her fifties then, was walking together with a few of us still in our twenties. On the way, we saw a statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva. My mother greeted Guanyin Bodhisattva respectfully with her palms together and said, “I feel Guanyin Bodhisattva smiling at me and I can sense her presence!” How is it so efficacious? It took us young men two and a half hours to circumambulate the whole temple, whereas my mother merely took one and a half hour to do the same! She was literally running!

All the young men were exhausted. I asked mother, “Mom, are you tired? You were running so fast!” Mother replied, “How could I be tired? Bodhisattva is supporting our legs as we walked!” We felt immensely guilty after hearing it.

The Secrets of efficacious blessings from Buddha and Bodhisattva is not a matter of how much money or power you offer. It is through utmost sincerity that one could move heaven and earth, and receive Buddha’s blessings.

【至誠感恩觀世音菩薩】
.
.
今天是一個非常吉祥的好日子,是大慈大悲觀世音菩薩的聖誕。這裡我先和大家分享一則歷史上和觀世音菩薩感應的故事:

元魏時,有一個叫道泰的人,住在常山的衡唐精舍,曾經夢見有人告訴他說,他的壽命只有四十二歲。果然到了四十二歲的時候,他生起很重的病來,他憂慮自己必定如夢中所提示的會死,於是將他所有的衣食資產廣為佈施積福。有位朋友對他說:我聽過供養六十二億菩薩,和念一聲觀世音的人,得福報是一樣的,您何不皈依誦念觀世音菩薩?道泰猛然感悟,虔誠歸依誦念,不分日夜。精誠勤奮四天四夜後,忽然看見一道白光從戶外射進來,非常的耀眼,光芒中看見觀世音菩薩的金色雙腳,令全屋金光朗照。道泰馬上扯開帳子出來叩頭頂禮,一會兒光就消失了。他又悲又喜,周身流汗,全身輕鬆,所生的病也就一次都全好了。( 續高僧傳 第25卷)

那像這樣菩薩慈悲顯像來幫助眾生的神跡,是經常發生的。在我小時候修行和成長的過程中,觀世音菩薩就時常伴隨著我,幫助我修行,給我指導。我對佛法的認識,以及後來對很多事物的認識,都是觀世音菩薩直接教導給我。在我傳法的過程中,當重大的活動或是事件發生時,菩薩也都會慈悲化現、護佑一切順利吉祥。
.
觀世音菩薩的慈悲,我自己的感悟,就像一位為孩子付出一切、想盡一切辦法的母親:我們小時候不愛吃飯,或是身體不舒服,母親怕我們餓壞了,會唱著歌、做著遊戲,想方設法哄著我們吃飯,或者是哄著我們吃藥,而自己可能完全忘記吃飯、睡覺,一心只為了讓我們早點獲得健康。這種慈悲啊,只有母親才有。而觀世音菩薩這樣一位母親是對天下眾生的。這種慈悲心實在令我敬佩。
.
菩薩這麼慈悲對我們,我們要做的是什麼呢,概括起來只有兩個字:真誠!
.
那麼,在這樣神聖的日子裡,如何表達真誠呢?
1. 沐浴更衣,真誠誦念觀世音菩薩聖號。
2. 在家裡或是道場的觀世音菩薩像前,真誠供養、獻花、獻果、獻禮。
3. 參與共修誦念。因為共修的能量與感應是更強的。不在禪堂附近的同修可以晚上在我們約定的時間裡選一個時段一同誦念(晚上8:30-臨晨1:00)。

正如觀世音菩薩願望中所說的——「一切正在有苦、有難、有貧窮、有疾病的眾生,如果你所求的,但願我能幫你」,希望大家把握今天的機會,真誠感恩,得到佛光普照,實現心中願望!

Deepest gratitude to Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Today is a very auspicious day, the birthday of the most compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva. Let me share with you a story from Chinese history in relation to Guanyin Bodhisattva:

During the Northern Wei dynasty there was a man named Dao-tai(道泰) who lived in the Changshan county. He had a dream in which he was told he had a lifespan of only forty-two years. True enough, he fell very sick on his forty-second birthday. Thinking that he was going to die, he donated all his wealth to the poor to gain karmic merits. One day, he heard from his friend that the karmic reward of calling out the name of Guanyin Bodhisattva with great sincerity is equivalent to making offerings to 6.2 billion Bodhisattvas. This inspired Dao-tai to chant reverently day and night. Suddenly, on the fourth night, he was enveloped by bright light shining in from the outside. In the blinding light, he could see the legs of Guanyin boddhisattva and immediately prostrated at the bodhisattva’s gold-sheathed feet. The light disappeared as fast as it came and Dao-tai found himself covered in perspiration. Amazingly, he was cured of all illnesses after that. (Continued in the 25th chapter of the Biographies of Eminent Monks).

Such miraculous blessings from Guanyin Bodhisattva are not uncommon. While I was growing up, Guanyin Bodhisattva was always by my side; holding my hand as I walked the path, giving me guidance on my practice. She taught me all about the Buddha dharma and the natural way of things. Till today, she is there at all the key events of my life, watching over me, bestowing blessings to all as I spread the Dharma.

The Bodhisattva’s compassion is like that of a loving mother who gives unconditionally: She will go through all means to ensure that we are safe and healthy, even at the expense of herself. Such deep love is what a mother will bear towards her own child. To the benevolent Guanyin Bodhisattva, all of us, all sentient beings are like her children. Such compassion and love are truly admirable!

The great compassion that the Bodhisattva bears for us can only be repaid with the deepest respect and sincerity. How do we express that on this sacred day?
1. Freshen ourselves and sincerely chant the name of Guanyin Bodhisattva.
2. Make sincere offerings of flowers, fruits and gifts to the benevolent Guanyin Bodhisattva.
3. Join the group chanting practice at the Bodhi Meditation Center. If you stay far away from the center, you can chant together with us in your home, anytime between 8.30 in the evening to 1 in the morning. Group practice is beneficial as it yields much stronger energy and builds a stronger connection with the merciful Bodhisattva.

Guanyin Bodhisattva has vowed to help all sentient beings who call out to her, freeing them from suffering, pain, poverty and sickness. On this auspicious day, let us offer our sincerest gratitude and receive the blessings from the most compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva!

拾金不昧改變一生

幾年前某個鎮上有位流浪漢,他每天在街上乞討,從沒有人去注意他。直到有一天,一位好心姑娘把零錢倒進乞討杯後,他的命運開始有了轉變。

那一天,流浪漢要準備回家休息,正檢查杯中一天下來的成果,赫然發現杯裡有個閃閃發亮的戒指。他懷疑是假的,於是就帶到珠寶店請老闆鑑定,老闆看了後告訴他,這是枚真鑽戒,而且價格不斐。

流浪漢得知後內心非常掙扎,因為賣了戒指,他就可以吃喝一整年不用愁了。但他轉念一想,戒指的主人一定是不小心把戒指丟到他杯子,而且這麼重要的東西一定非常著急,最後他決定不賣戒指離開了珠寶店。

隔天他回到原來的地方乞討,過了一陣子果然有位姑娘跑來,問他是不是有見到一枚戒指?他說:「有的,我為你好好的保存著。」並把戒指交給她。姑娘非常感激,但也沒多餘的錢可以幫助他,於是姑娘回去後,就把流浪漢的故事發佈在網路上,並為他申請了一個善款帳號。

流浪漢誠實的故事,在網路上引發了極大的討論,有記者得知後也來訪問他,受感動和同情的人們紛紛慷慨捐助,最後帳號共收到幾千筆款項,加起來高達十幾萬美金。電視的報導後,還讓誤以為流浪漢失蹤了的家人找到了他,他們全家也因此得以團聚了。現在流浪漢不僅有舒適的房子可以住,重要的是還能和家人在一起。

這個拾金不昧和善有善報的故事,讓我們看到人性的善良與溫暖。當今社會,有的人選擇欺騙,但也在無奈中被欺騙,用欺騙的手段待人,賺了一時的利益,但最終除了被騙,還會一無所獲。

如果做事的心態是善的,所希望的結果將會出現,所獲得的就是善果。做一個有情有義、知恩圖報和慈悲善良的人,才能消除罪業,積累深厚的功德資糧,讓我們現在和未來、乃至子女和親人都吉祥如意。

There was a vagrant in the streets who begged for handouts some years back. No one paid much attention to him. Until one day, a kind-hearted lady donated some pennies. Thereafter, his life and fortunes changed.
.
As he prepared to set off later that day, he tallied his “takings” in the begging bowl habitually. Amongst money, there lay a glistening ring. He had low expectations of the ring, but decided to have it examined by a jeweler anyway. To his astonishment, it was a genuine diamond ring, and was valuable.
.
Upon realizing the value of the diamond ring, the vagrant struggled consciously. On the one hand, he knew that he would not have to worry about his meals for the next year or so should he trade off the diamond ring. On the other hand, he thought about the owner of the ring, who must be panic-stricken upon realizing the loss. Eventually, he decided against selling the diamond ring.
.
The following day, he returned to the same spot to beg. After a while, a young lady indeed hurriedly came up to him, inquiring about a diamond ring. Without hesitation, the vagrant nodded and handed the diamond ring over, urging the young lady to keep it safely. This lady was immensely grateful, but did not have extra cash to assist the vagrant. So after she returned home, she subsequently posted her positive encounter with the vagrant on the internet. At the same time, she registered a charity account on his behalf.
.
The young lady’s encounter with the honest vagrant sparked off an internet sensation, leading to meaningful online discussions. Reporters interviewed him. Many were touched by his honesty and sympathetic toward his plight, and donated generously to his charity account. Soon, funds in the account rose from a few thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Further, the news coverage allowed the vagrant’s family to locate him successfully. Soon, he was reunited with his family, and had a nice, warm home to return.
.
This story of honesty, and in not taking other’s belongings illustrate the kindness and warmth of human nature. In today’s society, there are some who resort to defraud others, and in the process, suffer a similar fate. It is obvious that the immediate gains through dishonesty would eventually be lost.
.
We should note that with kind intentions and thus actions, positive results would manifest. A considerate, grateful and compassionate person can reduce poor karma and accumulate deep virtues. In this manner, such a person and his loved ones can enjoy sustained blissful and smooth lives across generations.

【請跟我一起真誠念佛、得美好祝願】

2017年3月16日(農曆2月19日)是大慈大悲觀世音菩薩聖誕日,是所有佛教信仰者都會來紀念的好日子。觀世音菩薩是尋聲救苦的大菩薩,只要苦難的聲音傳到祂耳邊,祂就會來幫助大家,甚至化現各種不同的相貌來幫助眾生,用行動體現著佛陀的大慈大悲。
.
有很多人希望過的更好或是轉變眼前的近況,比如說有人失業了,祈請菩薩希望找份工作,能夠養家糊口;
還有人老大不小了,都40歲了,希望找一個結婚的對象;
還有人希望能夠開發智慧,考上好的大學;
還有人正在選擇一個房子,祈請菩薩指導房子在哪個方向;

還有人希望事業能夠得到擴展等等,
這一切,觀世音菩薩都可能會給你靈感、給你智慧,護佑你的願望早日達成。

還有些人,可能遇到危急狀況、或者麻煩事情和意外等等,希望菩薩幫助解決,那就趕快去誦念、憶念觀世音菩薩的名號和形象,事情就可能立即得到解脫,危險就一瞬間過去了。
.
每個人所求願望不同,佛菩薩帶給我們的受益也會不同。佛菩薩會根據我們的需求、定力、承受力一步一步地給我們,是這樣引導著我們走向一個真正智慧、圓滿的人生。所以我們要懂得供養、懂得去恭敬,就從懂得誦念開始,每誦念一句都有效果。
.
那麼從3月11日晚上開始,我會從20:30左右開始一直到凌晨01:00誦念《觀世音菩薩聖號》,大家可以跟著我一起誦念。一共 12個晚上。每晚最少20分鐘,少了也都可以,我相信只要恭敬誦念都會有效果。如果在觀音菩薩聖誕附近這段時間裡,我們能常常有恭敬、誦念、觀想、供養等行為,是非常吉祥、非常殊勝、非常有功德的事情,希望大家都試著去做,或許會有不可思議的奇迹發生。

歡迎大家12天之後來分享你的受益!

There is an ancient saying: our human body is scarcely available and Buddha dharma is difficult to chance upon. Now that we have the opportunity to listen to Buddha dharma as a human, we should treasure this rare opportunity and cultivate diligently.
.
My advice to my disciples is to cultivate diligently and clear your karmic debts so that you can attain liberation and enlightenment in this life. At the same time, you will be able to experience the fundamental state of meditation as described in the Heart Sutra. It is only then will you truly realize the Law of Nature and its inter-connectivity with body and mind.

Absolute Sincerity Begets Bliss and Happy Outcomes

The realization of your aspiration depends on timing, place, and even its suitability for you.

You have to genuinely believe you have attained your aspiration, as bestowed by the Bodhisattva.

Though it may not yet be fulfilled, you must focus with a respectful heart on: “I have attained, I have achieved.”

A gift that comes to you is what you deserve. Initially, you may not sense the receiving of it. When the opportune time arrives, it will be presented to you.

[ Facebook Live Broadcast ] March 11th, 2017

In a few days’ time, it is the birthday of Avalokitesvara, the Bodhisattva of Great Compassion.

The revered Avalokitsesvara tirelessly looks out and hears the cries of all sentient beings who call upon his name, relieving their suffering with his heart of compassion, bestowing them with peace and happiness.

In this Saturday’s Live broadcast, I shall bring you to form an affinity with Avalokitsesvara. You can prepare some water, rice, mala or item you wish to be blessed upon by Avalokitsesvara.

Let’s partake with a peaceful mind, utmost sincerity and a respectful heart. May all be blessed with auspiciousness.

幸福是什麼? . 有人說,幸福不在於吃得…

幸福是什麼?

有人說,幸福不在於吃得多好、穿得多美,而在於擁有健康的體魄;還有人說,幸福非關房子有多大,而是房子裡的笑聲有多甜。

在挖掘機司機溫謹荃大叔的眼裡,幸福又是什麽呢?讓我們一起走進阿荃的生活,聽幸福來敲門。

What is happiness
.
Some people say happiness is not about what we eat or wear, but about having good health. It is also not about the size of your home but how much laughter it holds within.
What is happiness to Uncle Chuan, an excavator driver? Let us walk in his shoes to understand how he found happiness.
