【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？

【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.

聰明反被聰明誤? . . 人總習慣用自己…

聰明反被聰明誤?
.
.
人總習慣用自己的方式去理解他人，誤會往往就是這樣產生的，不但讓自己生出憎恨心，還容易危害到自己。
.
我講一個我過去在中國青海時候的故事：
在青海的路上，我看到一輛大卡車有個輪胎轉得不正常。我出門多有經驗，看那個輪胎有一點搖擺感，就感覺是螺絲鬆了。如果它飛出來的話，第一它沒有輪胎了、第二可能傷到別人。
.
我就給那個司機招手，指指他後面輪胎，要他看一下。那個人卻狠狠地瞪我一眼，罵了一句：「媽的，想搭我的車呀！」以為我要占他便宜。我繼續皺著眉頭喊：「嚴重！嚴重！」他就是不管，繼續開著車走了。
.
沒想到車跑沒多遠，那個輪胎「咻——」就像飛盤一樣飛到前面的山溝裡面去了。他就追著輪胎跑了一公里啊，下到山溝裡去把輪胎抱上來。那個山坡至少有五十米高；輪胎多重啊，至少有五十公斤吧，多難啊！他好不容易給弄上來後，累得一點兒力氣都沒有了！結果還是我幫他裝上輪胎。我說：「怎麼樣？朋友，我是好心好意提醒你。」
.
有些人在決策時，總認為自己想的就一定是對的！不願意參考別人的意見，這樣的態度可能會讓自己無法理性判斷，處理方式因此有所偏頗，甚至傷害到自己和身邊所有的人。

周六就讓我們一起來聊聊《認識六度》（上），探討如何不被慣性思考，影響自己正確的判斷能力，圓滿生活更智慧、更幸福、更得人緣。
最後，祝福朋友們吉祥、自在！

#認識六度上、#謙虛、#客觀、#同理心、#週六共修預告、#金菩提宗師開示rnrnSmart people may be victims of their own cleverness
.
People are always accustomed to understand others in their own way. This often causes misunderstandings and even hatred and dislike for one another. They can also get hurt in the process.
.
Let me share a story that took place in Qinghai province, China:
Once, on my way to Qinghai, I saw a moving truck with one of its tires turning abnormally. From experience, I knew that the screws of the wheel had loosened and if it comes off, it could hurt someone else.
I waved to the driver, pointing to his rear tire and signaling him to look at it. The man gave me a stare and scolded me, “Why, you want a free ride?” Apparently, he thought I wanted to take advantage of him. I frowned and shouted, “It’s serious!” He ignored me and drove driving away.
.
Shortly after, the wheel came off and flew towards the hillside. He had to run almost a kilometer to get the wheel from the hillside that was at least 50 meters in height. By the time he climbed down to pick up the heavy tire that weight almost 50 kg, he was too tired to get up. Eventually, I helped him to fit the tire. I said, “Friend, didn’t I try to remind you of your wheel?”
Some people always assume that they are always right when they make judgement or decision. They are not open to other’s opinion. Such mentality and attitude could cloud one’s objectivity and ultimately lead to a bias decision. In more serious case, such wrong decision might even cause harm to them or others.
.
Today, let’s talk about “The Six Perfections – Part 1” and explore how we can break away from accustomed thinking so that it does not affect our objective judgement, thus allowing us to lead a wiser, happier and more harmonious life.
.
Finally, bless all with auspiciousness and peace!
.
Welcome all to share!
?More sharing, more blessings!?

如何守住福氣，成為世代富有的人？
.
曾經，我在美國遇過一位不到三十歲的年輕人，非常聰明，家教很好。他的父親留給他一筆數目不小的財產，他也在美國經營一家很大的公司，一年的利潤能達到一千萬美金。
.
可是這個小夥子生活卻非常克難，穿的鞋都是帶補丁的，吃飯的時候，哪個地方便宜去哪兒吃。手錶是他爸爸留給他的那種老上海錶，我瞧他的錶裡都進去不少汗了。之後才發現，這麼樸素的一個人，原來幹了一件天大的荒唐事——他每三個月就去一次賭城。他身為一間公司大老闆卻窮得慌，他跑來找我…
.
他說：「師父啊，您能不能贈我一句話？」

我就給他寫了一幅字：「辛辛苦苦為賭城賺錢。」

我說：「你對賭城很忠誠！」

他哭著問我：「如何守住自己的福氣？」

我告訴他：「除了戒賭以外，還需要戒貪，並且為自己多積些福德，這份福氣才能長久，否則富不過三代呀！！」
.
也許，很多人並沒賭博，但是在忙碌的生活中，很多的行為上、言語中，不知不覺卻漏了福德，咱們要會賺錢，更要會「守財」，福氣才能真正是咱們的！
.
那麼要如何做，才能讓這份福氣留下來呢？
.
本週六，歡迎大家一起來聊聊《修行的要點》，探討如何留住福氣、讓世代子孫都成為世代富有的人？最後祝福朋友們吉祥、健康、幸福、自在！
.
讚是一種鼓勵，分享是最好的支持。

How to keep blessing and fortune for future generations?
.
Once, I met a young man less than thirty of age in the United States. He was very smart and had good upbringing. His father left him a sizable fortune and he managed a large organization in the United States with yearly profits exceeding ten million dollars.
.
But this fellow led a tough life. He worn patched shoes and only patronized cheap food outlets. His watch was an old Shanghai watch his father left him. I could literally see sweat in his watch. Later on, I discovered this young man actually did a great deal of absurd things — visiting casino once every three months. He was a company boss, but he was so poor that he came to me.
.
He asked, “Master, can you give some advice?”
I wrote him Chinese calligraphy, “Working hard to earn money for casino” and said to him, “You are very loyal to the casino!”
He cried and asked me, “How do I hold on to my fortune?”
I said to him, “You need to stop gambling and stop being greedy. Try to accumulate merit for yourself so that you can enjoy longer fortune. Otherwise, your wealth will not last beyond three generations!”
.
Perhaps many people do not gamble. But in their busy life, merit is lost unknowingly through their inappropriate actions and words. Though it is important for us to earn money, it is even more important for us to retain wealth. Only then will fortune truly belong to us!
.
So what can be done to keep this fortune?
.
In this Saturday, we will discuss “The Keys to Buddhist Practice” and explore how we can pass on such fortune to our descendants and future generations.
Finally, I wish all my friends — luck, health, happiness and peace!
.
Like is a form of encouragement, share is the best support.
?More sharing, more blessings!?
.

【如何學會歡喜接受】
.
.
所謂:「良藥苦口利於病，忠言逆耳利於行」。
.
「人」都喜歡聽好聽的話，吃好吃的東西，一但聽到有人說你的不是或缺點，就會火冒三丈，恨不得把對方給狠揍一頓，所以大家見了你，只好說說客套話，好聽的話，恭維你一番。因此，人們就再也聽不到真實的話語了。當你看不見自己，究竟會給自己帶來什麼結果呢，我來給大家說個真實的故事吧！
.
戰國時代有個有名的神醫，叫 扁鵲。
有一天，扁鵲去見蔡桓公，說：「王啊，您的皮膚有點小毛病，求桓公讓我給您醫治吧。」
桓侯不悅的說：「我沒有病，你請回吧。」
扁鵲走後，桓公說：「大夫(醫生)總是喜歡給沒病的人治病，以此做為自己的功勞！」
.
過了十天，扁鵲對桓公說：「您的病已經到了肌肉裡，不醫治的話，會更加嚴重下去。」桓公一樣不予理睬。再過了十天，扁鵲見桓公，仍警告地說：「您的病已經到了腸胃，王怎麼就是不信呢？」說完扁鵲嘆口氣踱步離去，桓公還是不理。
.
再過了十天，扁鵲遠遠望見桓公，竟突然拔腿就跑。
扁鵲說：「現在桓公的病已深入骨髓裡，我也無能為力了，為了避免被殺頭我只好逃跑。」
沒多久，桓公果真開始渾身疼痛，派人去尋扁鵲，卻已遍尋不著，扁鵲已經逃到秦國去了。
桓公因為病入膏肓，也就死去了。
.
所以，我們對待逆耳的、打擊的話語和行為，要學會歡喜接受、更需要正向思考。好多逆耳的話，對我們本身就是一種幫助，學習勇敢面對問題，才有機會解決問題。
.
週六就讓我們一起來聊聊《禪修指導》（下），探討怎樣去「學會歡喜接受」，去把慈悲和美好給周圍的人，我們才會得到幸福。
.
喜歡就請分享，祝福朋友們都能夠吉祥、幸福、健康、快樂！

（Learn to accept graciously and happily)
.
As a popular Chinese saying goes: (A bitter medicine cures the disease. Honest advices may be unpleasant for the ears but they are beneficial to our general well-being.)
.
Humans love to listen to nice words and eat tasty food. The moment they hear honest opinions about their flaws, they get angry and may even have the urge to beat the other person up. As a result when people see you, they will only say pleasantries and words that flatter you. You will no longer be able to hear sincere and honest words. When you cannot see yourself clearly, what will be the outcome? Let me share a story!
.
During warring states period, there was a highly skilled doctor. His name was Bianque.
One day, Bianque went to see Cai Huangong and said: “Your majesty, you have some minor skin diseases, please allow me to treat you.”
Huangong said in displeasure: “I am not ill, please leave.”
After Bianque left, Huangong said to himself: “Doctors like to treat people who are not ill so as to gain credits for themselves!”
.
After ten days, Bianque told Huangong: “Your illness had spread to your muscles. If you do not seek for treatment, it will get worse.”
Again, Huangong ignored Bianque’s words. After another ten days, Bianque continued to warn Huangong when he saw him: “Your illness had spread to your stomach, why do you not trust me, your Majesty?” With these words, Bianque sighed and walked away. Huangong continued to remain indifferent to Bianque’s words.
.
Ten days later, the moment Bianque spotted Huangong from a distance, he immediately started running. Bianque said: “Huangong’s illness had spread to his bone marrow, there is nothing I can do to cure him now. To avoid being beheaded, I can only flee.”
.
Not long after, Huangong started to feel aching in his whole body. He sent his guards to look for Bianque but failed to locate hm. Bianque had run to neighboring Qin country to hide. As Huangong was beyond cure, he eventually passed on.
.
Hence when we hear words that are unpleasant to our ears, we must learn to accept graciously and contemplate whether there is truth in them. Sincere, honest advices are beneficial to us and we must learn to face our problems bravely. Only then would we be able to resolve them.
.
Today let us discuss in Guide to Meditation- Part 3 how we can learn to accept happily and graciously. Only then would we be able to rectify and correct our problems. We will only gain happiness when we are compassionate and brings happiness to people around us.

「健康」真的可以很簡單
.
.
曾經有位美國富豪，在他居住的地區裡有1/3的地都是他的，堪稱是當地的首富。可是在他活到了76歲，臨去世之前，他很生氣地說：「我想要長壽，誰能讓我多活一年，我給他100萬美金！我這一生擁有這麼多財富，我希望能再多享福久一些。」可是最後還是沒有人能做得到，沒有醫生能幫他延壽，讓他再活得更長久些。
.
所以，就算你擁有再多的金錢，中西醫學還是無法解決好多的健康問題。
.
其實，有一個非常簡單易學的方法，不需花費你太多的時間與體力，就能夠快速收穫「能量」與「健康」的方法＿八卦內功，它不花你一毛錢，誰都能學會。並且只要有棵樹，就可以走出「健康」和「快樂」。
.
如果你也有健康方面的任何問題與困擾，歡迎本週六與我一起來聊聊，學習簡單快速的方法，就能快速收穫「能量」與「健康」的方法！
.

「Health」 can be easily attainable
.
Once there was an American billionaire. He owned one third of the land in the area in which he lived and was known as the richest man there. He lived to an age of 76 years. Before he passed on, he said angrily: “I want to live a longer life; whoever can extend my life by one more year, I will give him one million dollars! I have accumulated so much wealth in this life and I hope to enjoy for a longer time.” However, in the end, no one could help him and no doctor could extend his life span.
Hence, even if you have a lot of money, Chinese physicians and western doctors still cannot help to resolve a lot of health issues.
.
Actually, there is a very simple and easy method which does not need too much time and physical strength and can swiftly enable a person to accumulate 「energy」and 「health」- Energy Bagua. It does not cost you a single cent and is easy to learn. All you need is a tree and you can easily attain good health and happiness.
.
If you have any health issue or problem, we welcome you to join me this coming Saturday in our discussion to learn a simple and fast method to quickly accumulate 「energy」and 「health」!
.
If you like this post, please share. May all enjoy an auspicious, happy and peaceful life!

這是一個真實的故事！ . . 中國春秋戰…

這是一個真實的故事！
.
.
中國春秋戰國時期，有一位叫「甘羅」的小孩子，他爺爺是宰相。甘羅的爺爺受到奸臣迫害，皇帝為了刁難他，出了一個既特別又非常可笑的難題，要甘羅的爺爺找到公雞蛋；如果找不到，就要殺了他。
.
甘羅的爺爺在家裡非常著急，十二歲的甘羅知道之後就說：「爺爺，這個容易！我代替爺爺您上朝吧。！」
.
早上五更天還不亮，甘羅就等在了朝堂外。
早朝時間到了，皇帝在朝堂外見到這麼個小娃兒要見他，就好奇地應允了。
皇帝說：「小娃兒，你來找我有什麼事啊？」
甘羅：「我叫甘羅，我爺爺是甘老丞相。但是我爺爺病了，所以我來替我爺爺上朝。」
.
皇帝：「你爺爺生什麼病呢？」
甘羅：「他坐月子呢！」
皇帝一聽樂了：「你爺爺是個男人還會生小孩？」
甘羅：「是啊，男人不能生小孩，同樣的公雞也不能下蛋啊！」
.
因此，機智的甘羅，使甘老丞相躲過了這一難。後來，皇帝就允許十二歲的甘羅進朝幫皇帝料理政務。
.
所以，「知識就是力量」，知識多重要啊！
當你有了知識，加上合理運用的話，那就是智慧、就是能量——有時可以改變人的命運。
.
讓我們在週末共修一起來聊聊「德者、智者、能者」。
祝願朋友們都能學會，運用知識去創造更精彩的人生！

#週六共修預告、#德者智者能者、#金菩提宗師開示、#公雞下蛋 、#甘羅rnrnThis is a true story!
.
During China’s Spring Autumn Warring States period, there was a child, Gan Luo, whose grandfather was the prime minister. Due to evil ploys by court traitors, his grandfather fell out of favor and the emperor gave him a special and ridiculous task – to find eggs laid by a rooster. Failing which, he would be prosecuted.
.
Gan Luo’s grandfather became very anxious and worried. When 12 years old Gan Luo learnt about this, he comforted his grandfather, “Grandpa, this’s easy! I will take your place during the imperial hearing!”
The next morning, Gan Luo was already waiting outside the imperial court before sunrise.
The emperor was curious to have a young child attending his morning court and granted him entry.
The emperor asked: “Young child, you come to me for what matter?”
.
Gan Luo replied, “My name is Gan Luo and my grandfather is senior Prime Minister Gan. I am here to represent my grandfather as he is sick today.”
Emperor asked, “What’s your grandpa’s illness?”
Gan Luo responded, “He’s in confinement!”
The emperor was amused, “Your grandpa is a man; how can he bear a child?”
Gan Luo replied, “Indeed! Man cannot give birth just like rooster cannot lay eggs!”
With Gan Luo’s wit, the senior Prime Minister Gan escaped this difficult task. Subsequently the emperor allowed 12 years old Gan Luo to help in his administration.
Therefore, 「knowledge is power」 and knowledge is so important!
When you have knowledge and is able to apply it rationally, it is wisdom and energy. At times it can also change destiny.
.
Let’s discuss 「The Virtuous, The Wise, and The Capable」 during this Saturday’s Group Practice. Let’s learn how it can change our life and destiny.
.
We welcome everybody to share their views. May all learn to use knowledge to create a more splendid life!
If you like, please share. More sharing, more blessing!

為什麼司馬懿的15萬精兵，輸了僅有250…

為什麼司馬懿的15萬精兵，輸了僅有2500人的諸葛亮？
.
.
《三國演義》中有一個很有名的故事「空城計」：
.
三國時期，魏蜀大戰，司馬懿帶著15萬大軍逼近西城，不巧諸葛亮已將兵馬調遣在外，一時難以回來，城中只留著老弱兵卒。危急之中，諸葛亮心想：「我就利用司馬懿，生性多疑的弱點來獻計吧!」
.
於是諸葛亮獨自坐上城頭，傳令士兵把城牆上所有的旌旗全收起來，大開四城門，每個城門僅僅派了20名士兵，喬扮成百姓模樣灑水掃街。諸葛亮自己則披上鶴氅、綸巾，領著兩個小書童，帶上一張琴，燃起香，悠閒自若地彈起琴來。
.
司馬懿兵臨城下，只見城門大開，幾個百姓正在掃地，諸葛亮卻在城樓上焚香撫琴，飲酒歡歌，司馬懿心中開始起疑，心想：「對手必有後援！」因此不敢貿然攻城，自退二十里路觀察。當司馬懿探明實情，想再返回時，趙雲已率大軍趕到城下，司馬懿這才知道中了諸葛亮的「空城計」。
.
可見，我們眼睛看到的、聽到的未必是真相。
我們經常被自己的五官感知給蒙蔽真相，而做出錯誤的判斷和決定。
.
所以，跳脫身體感官的覺知，超越自己的判斷力看待事物，才能夠看清事物的原貌。那如何才能提升自我的決斷力，為自己的生命找到出口呢？歡迎本週六咱們一起來聊聊《覺悟的探索之一》。

Why Sima Yi’s 150 thousand troops lost to Zhuge Liang’s 2,500 soldiers?
.
There is a well-known story “The Strategy of an Empty City” in the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms:
.
During the period of the Three Kingdoms, Sima Yi, the general of Wei’s troops led 150 thousand troops on a battle against Shu’s territory of Xi City. Unfortunately Zhuge Liang had earlier sent his army away and was only left with a handful of weak soldiers. Knowing Shima Yi’s suspicious nature, Zhuge Liang promptly plotted a plan to play against Shima Yi’s weakness.
.
Zhuge Liang ordered his soldiers to remove all flags on the city wall and open the four main gates. He also arranged some soldiers to disguise as civilians to sweep the streets. As for him, he went to the top of the city wall, draped on a crane cloak, lit incense and leisurely played his musical instrument gu-zhen with only two child servants by his side.
.
When Sima Yi reached the city gate, he became suspicious when he saw the gate wide open with some ordinary folks sweeping the floor and Zhuge Liang seated relaxingly at the top of the city wall enjoying his music and incense. He thought, “The opponents must have backup plan!” Hence, he dare not invade the city rashly. Instead, he retreated twenty miles to observe the situation. When he finally realized the truth and returned to the city, General Zhao Yun already led his army back to the city to assist Zhuge Liang. It was then that Sima Yi realized he had been tricked by Zhuge Liang’s strategy of an empty city.
.
As evident, what we see and hear may not be the truth. Be it true or false, we are often misguided by our five senses and may end up making wrong judgements and decisions.
.
Hence, only if we can move beyond our physical senses to make judgement can we see things in their natural form. So how do we have better judgement and be sure that we are on the right path? Let’s discuss further in this Saturday’s “Exploring Enlightenment – Part 1”.
.

May all gain wisdom, health, auspiciousness and happiness!!

「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。
.

#念佛、 #週六共修預告、 #為子女念佛、#為親人念佛、#金菩提宗師開示、#親子教育、#健康、#快樂、#吉祥圓滿rnrn「Parents hold the key to the kid’s future」
.
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!

胸襟越廣大，生命的路也會越寬廣。

.
很多人都有同樣的感慨：「這年頭好人不好當，幫人還要被誤會！」那麼要如何才能真正行善，去幫助人呢？」聽我來說個故事吧！！
.
很久以前，在山東的一個小村子邊上有一片大湖泊，湖邊有一座道觀，道觀裡住著一位老道長。
.
有一年的夏季特別炎熱，傍晚時分，道長在湖邊的涼亭裡乘涼，這時湖面上突然冒出一隻蛤蟆精，這蛤蟆精怪聲怪調的唱著：「讒死了，讒死了，明天四個耳朵的來餵我！」老道長知道這蛤蟆精明天準備要吃人了，於是下決心要救下這有四個耳朵的人。
.
隔天天還沒亮，老道長就一直守在大湖邊。近中午了，地面滾燙滾燙的，太陽照得人滿臉滿身流汗，老道長仍一步也不肯離開。這時，從遠方慢慢走來了一個人，頭上還頂著有兩個提把的炒菜鍋，讓人一眼看到就覺得特別滑稽，顯然他把炒菜鍋當成了遮陽帽。
.
老道長看了，心頭突然一震：「山東人把炒菜鍋的兩個提把叫鍋耳朵，這個頂著提鍋的人不就有四個耳朵了嗎？」老道長急忙上來阻攔他靠近湖邊，對方因為不能理解，氣的把老道長推倒，還狠狠的踹上一腳，才頂著提鍋揚長而去。老道長還笑嘻嘻地，很高興能救下這個四個耳朵的人。
.
說到這兒，我想問問如果你是老道長，遇到對你又踢又打的人，你是否還能有寬大的心，願意搭救這個人？
.
這個故事告訴了我們一個道理：「只有真正慈悲又無私的人，才能救人不問回報，不怕被冤枉，才能擁有廣大的胸襟和肚量啊。」
.
本週六，讓我們一起來聊聊《覺悟的進程》，探討怎樣善用自己的智慧、能力去造福十方大眾，同時也提升我們的人生境界。
.
喜歡就請分享，祝福朋友們都能夠健康快樂、吉祥自在！

The broader the mind, the wider the path
.
Many people share the same feeling, “It is not easy to be a kind person. At times, helping others can lead to misunderstanding!”
So how do we do good deeds and help others?
Let me share a story!!
.
Once upon a time, there was a Taoist temple in a village beside a huge lake in Shangdong. And an elderly Taoist priest lived in the temple.
.
On one particular summer, as the weather was very hot, the Taoist priest strolled to the pavilion beside the lake to enjoy the evening breeze. Suddenly, a toad spirit appeared from the lake and started singing strangely, “Yum, yum, tomorrow I will get to enjoy a sumptuous meal of a four ears!” The elderly priest knew then that the toad spirit was looking forward to his next meal – a human being. He then decided to save the person with four ears.
.
The next day, the elderly priest went early to guard by the side of the huge lake. By noon, the priest was totally drenched in his own perspiration and the floor was scorching hot from the strong sunlight. However, the elderly priest refused to leave and continued guarding.
.
At this moment, he saw a man walking towards the lake from afar. With him, on his head, was a frying wok with two handles. He was using the frying wok as a hat to provide some shelter from the sun.
Suddenly, it dawned on him that the people in Shangdong always describe the two handles of their frying pan as “ears”. He immediately tried to stop the man from advancing towards the lake. However, the man didn’t understand his intention. He pushed the elderly priest to the ground and even kicked him before he eventually left the lake. Though the priest was kicked, he felt very happy as he had saved the life of the man with four ears.
.
At this point, I would like to pause and ask, “If you were the elderly priest and the person you were trying to save kicked and hit you, would your heart be broad enough to want to continue saving this person?”
.
Moral of the story: Only someone who is compassionate and selfless would save others without harboring any hope of return. He will persist even if the person he is trying to save misunderstands him. It takes a broadminded person to do what the priest did.
.
On this coming Saturday, let us discuss “Progress towards Enlightenment” and how we can apply our wisdom and capability to help all people and at the same time elevate our spiritual growth.
.

May all enjoy a healthy, happy, auspicious and peaceful life!
