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”.
.
If you like this post, please share it. More sharing, more blessings!
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。
.
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~

.
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!

A great recipe for this bright festival
.
There is a Buddha whose wish is to illuminate all sentient beings.
He has a good recipe that allows people not to fall sick and also receive great relief from worries.
.
If you offer a light and pray to the Medicine Buddha with great sincerity, regardless of whether rich or poor, the Buddha will hear you.
.
If you prostrate to Medicine Buddha with utmost respect, not only will illnesses and misfortune be eliminated, you will also receive blessings, gain longevity, rid yourself of worries and have other aspirations fulfilled. You can also help family members and others live in great compassion and brightness. This is because Medicine Buddha is dedicated to giving health and happiness.
.
Offer a light to the Buddha on behalf of yourself and your family members!
A light can illuminate thousand years of darkness and gain wisdom over thousand years of ignorance.
May the Medicine Buddha bless you with an auspicious and successful life.

敞開心扉，迎接陽光。（２０１７年１０月２８日）
.
.
曾經，有一位年輕的姑娘。她來上我的課，要結業時說：「我很感恩師父，我要給您跳支舞。」她跳得相當優美，媲美職業級舞者！結束後我問她：「你為什麼想要跳舞給我作為報恩呢？ 」
.
她說：「這十多年來我一直被憂鬱症所困擾，憂鬱症是小時候我的老師給我烙下的病根。記得小時候我學跳舞，因為身材胖乎乎的，有幾個動作沒做好，老師當著課堂同學的面說：『妳以後不要再跳舞了，像豬一樣笨。』從此我深受打擊，再也不樂意與人群接觸。第一不樂意去學校、第二仇恨老師、第三不願意見同學，我就這麼湊合地活著。」
.
就這一句話，從此她成了憂鬱症。長大不願意談戀愛，她覺得自己是最醜的、也就沒再跳過舞了。所以那個老師一不小心就毀了這孩子一生，而我們誰都可能會不經意間發生這種過錯。
.
所以，我們要懂得去做一個最善良的人、慈悲的人，儘量做到「正心正語」，學習要說慈悲的話、柔軟的話、讓別人能容易接受的話，儘量不要說諷刺的話、挑撥的話、打擊的話、乃至毀滅別人的話。
.
那麼在日常的生活中，如何不斷地提醒著自己成為一個更高尚的人？本週六歡迎大家與我一起來聊聊「覺悟的進程」喜歡就請分享，也請朋友們一起來交流，祝福大家更柔軟，更智慧！

#覺悟的進程、#金菩提宗師開示、#擺脫憂鬱症、#智慧、#柔軟rnrnProgress Toward Enlightenment (Oct 28, 2017)
.
Once there was a young lady who attended my class. Just when the class was about to end, she said to me, “Master, I am very grateful to you and would like to dance for you.” She danced beautifully and I thoroughly enjoyed her performance! On the completion of her dance I asked her, “Why did you dance for me?”
.
The young lady replied, “I suffered from depression for more than ten years and my teacher was the cause of my disease. I started to learn dancing when I was very young. But because I was slightly overweight, I was unable to perform some steps. My teacher scolded me and said that I was clumsy and stupid like a pig. I was badly affected and stopped interacting with people around me. First, I refused to go to school. Subsequently, I grew to hate my teachers. Thirdly, I avoided my classmates. Life was a misery.
.
As a result of this, she became depressed and grew up not wanting to date or enter into any relationship as she felt she was ugly. She also stopped dancing completely. So the teacher accidentally ruined the child’s life and anyone could have made the same mistake.
.
Therefore we must learn to be kind and compassionate and always have the “right intention and right speech”. We must learn to use kind and gentle words that are easily acceptable and avoid using harsh and hurtful words.
.
How do we constantly remind ourselves to be a noble person in our daily life? This week’s discussion will focus on “Progress Toward Enlightenment”. If you like this post, do share with your friends and invite them to participate in the discussion.
Wishing everyone be gentler and wiser!

你也想轉運、改命嗎？
.
曾經，有個中年男子，他生了嚴重的皮膚病_牛皮癬，牛皮癬長在他背上像籃球那麼大，他每天撓啊撓，都撓出血水了，尤其是越到晚上越發奇癢難受，撓了後就落下很多很多像魚鱗一樣一片片的皮屑，不論看過中醫或西醫都沒用，每天痛苦得不得了。
.
後來，有個老中醫告訴他:「您這個病要做功德才行啊」。
因為這個機緣，他跟著一個鄰居來到我們禪堂要求幹活，幫忙建禪堂，裝潢、刷漆等。
.
他每天不間斷的幫忙做苦力，過了一個多月，他兩邊的臉頰都曬黑了，牛皮癬基本上也好了五成以上。之後他更報名參加菩提的八天健身班，十期之後，那個牛皮癬就完全好了。

大家想想，是什麼原因讓他的病好的？
也許是真誠感動佛菩薩，也許是因為大量的運動量，快速了身體代謝排毒的功能？也許是禪堂的健康素食，改變了他不健康的飲食方式，也許是行善的功德，消除了他累世的因果業力？
.
無論答案是什麼，大家要的結果都是健康和快樂。
.
讓我們在這次的週末共修中一起來探討，如何改變自己的「命運」吧！歡迎大家一起來交流，祝福朋友們健康、吉祥、幸福、快樂！

#週六共修預告、#功德與命運、#金菩提宗師開示、#禪修rnrnDo you wish to change your life?

Once, there was a middle-aged man with a severe skin disorder, Psoriasis. The plagues on his back merged and grew to the size of a basketball. These lesions were so itchy and painful that he scratched daily till they bleed and develop pus. When the itch became unbearable at night, he would scratch and cause shedding of scales in sheets. He sought medical treatment from Western doctors and Chinese physicians but to no avail and he continued to suffer daily.

Later, an old Chinese physician told him, “You need to do more good deeds to cure this disease.” He adhered to his advice and followed a neighbor to our meditation hall to help in the renovation and painting.

He worked hard every day. After a month, his cheeks became tanned but his skin condition improved by more than 50 percent. He subsequently attended the 8-day Health and Fitness class. After the tenth session, his pretty much recovered.

Let’s ponder the reasons behind his recovery. Perhaps it was his sincerity that moved Buddha and bodhisattvas. Perhaps it was the strenuous physical activities that expedited his metabolism and detoxification? Perhaps it was the center’s vegetarian diet that changed his unhealthy diet, or his accumulation of merits that eliminated his karmic debts?

Whatever the answer is, everyone hopes for health and happiness.
Let’s explore together how to change our “destiny” in this coming Saturday’s group practice. Welcome everyone to join us.
May all be healthy, auspicious and happy!

為何我們的生活總是不如意？（２０１７年９月２３日共修）
.
.
經常的，我們有意無意間為了個人的利益，給他人帶來了傷害而不自知？

好比說我們買東西，塑膠袋順手就扔掉；還有咱們吃的盒飯，這些幾乎都是塑膠、化學製造成的，我們隨手一扔，風一起，這些白色的盒子、塑料袋隨風飄揚，不腐不化地飄到地球每個角落，很多甚至飄到大海裡，嚴重的汙染海洋生態，多少魚蝦因為這些塑料而喪命。
.
因此，無論我們今天發了善心、善行，如果沒有和我們累世犯下的錯誤進行平衡對比的話，沒有把它抹平，它是不會平等的，當你的基因裡面，過錯多於善行，你的生命要如何順心如意呢！
.
所以，我們若想改變自己，還有下一代子孫、孩子們的命運要怎樣做呢？我想就是減少，甚至不去做傷害他人的行為吧！除了減少傷害的行為外，還有沒有更快速有效的解決方法呢？
.
歡迎本週末，咱們一起來探討「覺悟的起點」吧！
歡迎大家一起來交流，祝福大家更智慧、更健康、更幸福！

#週六共修預告、#覺悟的起點、#金菩提宗師開示、#禪修、＃健康rnrnWhy is our life always unsatisfactory? (September 23, 2017)
.
Do we often cause harm to others intentionally or unintentionally for our own interest without realizing it?
For instance, we conveniently throw away the plastic bags when we buy something; we also discard the plastic foam boxes when we finish our takeaway meals. These items are mainly plastic in nature and chemically produced. When we casually dispose them, these foam boxes and plastic bags flutter in the wind to every corner of the earth including the oceans, causing serious marine ecosystem pollution. How many fishes and prawns have been killed because of these plastic?
.
Perhaps, we do not like pollution, but we are constantly producing pollution. When pollution gathers, it may become the source of respiratory system ailments as well as other kidney, heart or asthma related diseases.
.
In order to change our lives and the lives of our next generation, how do we not go about harming others?
.
You are welcome to join us this coming Saturday to explore “The Stepping Stone to Awakening”!

Welcome everyone to exchange your views.

問：「禪修為什麼能帶來健康的效果呢？」（２０１７年９月１６日）
.
十幾年前，我剛開始在溫哥華傳授禪修的時候，不同文化、種族的人也都問過我這個問題。當時我用了一個很簡單、很粗淺的方法做了一個提示：「用一個透明的桶，到河流裡盛一桶水上來，注意觀察，通常過了兩個小時之後，泥沙等重的東西會沉到水底、輕的東西會漂到水面、而中間的那一層水則相對比較乾淨，我們只要擷取中間的部分，就能得到相對乾淨的水了。」
.
而禪修的最初過程也是如此，因為，咱們大腦的清淨與否，與我們的身體健康有著絕對的關係。但是該如何通過「禪修」，讓身體調整成平衡的狀態，讓身體方方面面都能恢復健康呢？
.
讓我們在這次的週末共修中一起來「認識禪修」吧！
非常歡迎大家一起來聊聊，祝福大家清淨自在、幸福快樂 ！

#認識禪修、#週六共修預告、#金菩提宗師開示、#清淨、#減少煩惱、#水的沉澱、#認識禪修rnrnQuestion: How can meditation benefit our health? (16 Sep 2017)

Ten years ago, when I first started teaching meditation in Vancouver, I was often asked this question by people of different cultures and ethnic groups. I used a very simplistic way to illustrate: “Fill a transparent pail with a bucket of water from the river and observe. Usually after two hours, the heavier particles like mud and sand will sink to the bottom while lighter particles will float to the water surface, leaving the middle layer of water relatively clean and clear.”

The same is true for meditation. When our mind is tranquil, our physical health will improve. So how can we gain health and balance in life through meditation?

Let us come together during this Saturday’s Global Group Practice and “Get to know meditation”!
We welcome everyone to join our discussion. Wishing everyone peace and happiness!

慈悲的根基 (２０１７年９月９日) . …

慈悲的根基 (２０１７年９月９日)
.
你相信慈悲能讓你一帆風順，
而自私會給自己帶來疾病和災難？
幾年前我碰過這麼一個真實故事……
.
有一位懶媳婦，因為不喜歡和婆婆一起住，因此婚後就和老公搬到另一個城市裡去生活，把年歲已大的婆婆獨自一人給留在了老家。有一天，婆婆病倒了，求救電話來了，兒子也希望老婆能回家去照顧母親。但是兒媳婦接了電話卻回說：「媽，您病倒了啊？真對不起，我目前摔壞了腿，正在腿痛，我回不了老家、伺候不了您啊。」
.
其實媳婦本來沒這個事，就為了逃避照顧生病的婆婆撒下的謊言，沒多久，大概兩個月後，媳婦真摔了一跤！莫名其妙地把膝蓋骨給摔碎了，這下真的躺在家裡動彈不得了。
.
大家想想，媳婦兒這個病是怎麼來的？
這是以怨報德，沒有想到對方的恩情啊！當你能夠用慈悲心去愛天下人，愛你的婆婆、愛和你有關係的這些人，想到他們的好處。從這一剎那開始，你的心中有了善的正向能量，溫暖你的心房，當正面能量增強了、負面能量就自動減退，這是必然的！你的疾病也就開始好轉、乃至痊癒了。
.
因此，如果我們想化解自身的疾病，必須要從慈悲心的建立開始，從病源上去化解，這才是解決疾病煩惱的根本之道。
.
在本週六的共修中，我將為大家解說「慈悲的根基」，讓我們一起來學習從病源處去解決問題，從而獲得健康，快樂！
歡迎闔家一起來暢談，分享，祝福大家身心健康、幸福快樂 ！

#週六共修預告、#慈悲的根基、#金菩提宗師開示、#慈悲心、#身心健康rnrnThe Foundation of Compassion (September 9, 2017)
Selfishness brings sickness and disaster, compassion brings health and auspiciousness?

A person had such an experience: her mother-in-law was sick and needed someone to look after. As both were living in two different cities, her husband, the son, hoped that she would go over to care for his mother. When the sickly mother called for help, the daughter-in-law lied, “Mother, so sorry to hear that you are sick. I just had a fall and broke my leg. It’s hurting and I can’t attend to you.” Two months later, she really had a fall and injured her knee. As a result, she had to stay in bed.

How did this injury come about? When we return kindness with ingratitude! Open your heart and love the world with compassion. Love your mother-in-law and those related to you. Think of their good points and your heart will start to warm up. From this moment on, you will start to feel positive energy generating from within. When positive energy rises, negative energy will certainly diminish. Your illness will begin to heal and you may even gain full recovery.

If we want to recover from our illness, we need to cultivate compassion. We need to get to the source to resolve the fundamental cause.
Why is compassion the most important reason to health? Let us explore “The Foundation of Compassion” in greater depth during this Saturday’s group practice.
Welcome everyone to share your thoughts.
May all enjoy health and happiness!

如何「念佛」可以幫助自己也利於子孫？（２…

如何「念佛」可以幫助自己也利於子孫？（２０１７年９月２日）
.
.
問:「祖先應該要保祐後代子孫，家宅興旺、順利平安？但為何有些人年年祭拜祖先，卻還是家運不好，進而生病．破財．家庭失和呢．．．？」

我說個故事給大家參考，也許會對許多人有幫助。
.
有一天，一位母親帶她的孩子來見我。
母親說:「我的孩子生下來，全身都是一條一條像刀劃過的斑紋，我帶孩子看遍了所有中、西醫，都沒有辦法處理，也找不出原因？孩子還經常做惡夢，夢到自己全身鮮血淋漓、甚至更夢到自己全身就剩一堆白骨。求師父救救我的孩子吧！」我瞭解了一下才明白，原來女士的父親、爺爺祖輩們全都是廚師，祖傳最擅長的菜餚，就是烹活魚，在活魚身上劃出一道一道口子來烹飪，這就好像她孩子身上的痕跡。
.
我告訴這位母親說：「妳去佛前用真誠的心，為自己的父母、祖先懺悔、念佛，並且需要勤力去作一些善行，好比說「放生、供燈、發心建道場」吧，不然我也沒別的法子了。」她聽完回去做了這一系列事情的一個月後，她兒子身上的斑痕明顯地淡了一半。所以，做功德、懺悔的作用力太大了！因為我們的祖先、父母過去所做過的一切錯事都會遺傳下來，使子孫後代不安，造成種種的疾病和人生障礙。
.
「真心誦念一句佛號，勝過萬兩黃金。」我們通過為父母祖先念佛、供燈，祈請佛菩薩加持。當我們的祖宗能安寧、祥和、自在了，我們才會平安、吉祥、自在。
.
那麼要如何通過「懺悔、念佛」來消除祖宗所遺傳給我們的業力呢？
歡迎大家在本週六，與我一起研究如何《為父母祖先念佛》吧。
祝福大家早日離苦得樂，平安、健康、幸福、快樂！
.
喜歡就請分享，共同幫助更多需要幫助的人們，願他們也都能獲得光明、吉祥、健康、快樂。

Chanting for parents and ancestors benefits descendants (September 2, 2017) Question: “Ancestors should bless the descendants with prosperity and peace. However, why are some people constantly suffering from bad luck, disease, financial woes and breakups? Let me share a story that may be of some help to many people. One day, a mother brought her child to see me. The mother said, “Since birth, my son’s whole body has knife-like stripes. I took him to see both Western doctors and Chinese physicians but to no avail as none could identify the cause of his problem. He constantly had nightmares of blood dripping from his body and body turning into a pile of bones. Master, please help save my son!” After further probing, I found out that the mother’s father and forefathers were all chefs. Their expertise was cooking live fishes. The cuts that they made on the fishes resembled those marks on his son’s body. I told the mother, “Go before the Buddha, chant and repent sincerely for your parents and ancestors. Not only that, you have to diligently carry out good deeds such as releasing captive animals, offering lights before the Buddha and contributing to the construction of dharma cultivation halls. Otherwise, I have no other way.” She followed my advice and did a series of good deeds. A month later, the marks on her son’s body cleared out almost half. Thus, the force of merits accumulation and sincere repentance is great! Past misdeeds of ancestors and parents would be passed on to the descendants in the form of uneasiness, illness, obstacles and hindrances in lives. There is a saying – Sincere chanting of Buddha’s name is worth more than a ton of gold. Through light offering and sincere chanting for our parents and ancestors, we seek blessings from the Buddha and bodhisattvas. Only when our ancestors attain freedom and peace will we be safe, auspicious and peaceful. So how do we “chant and repent” to eliminate karmic debts and obstacles transmitted to us by our ancestors?

問:「祖先應該要保祐後代子孫，家宅興旺、順利平安？但為何有些人卻總是家運不好，進而生病．破財．家庭失和呢．．．？」

我說個故事給大家參考，也許會對許多人有幫助。
.
有一天，一位母親帶她的孩子來見我。
母親說:「我的孩子生下來，全身都是一條一條像刀劃過的斑紋，我帶孩子看遍了所有中、西醫，都沒有辦法處理，也找不出原因？孩子還經常做惡夢，夢到自己全身鮮血淋漓、甚至更夢到自己全身就剩一堆白骨。求師父救救我的孩子吧！」我瞭解了一下才明白，原來女士的父親、爺爺祖輩們全都是廚師，祖傳最擅長的菜餚，就是烹活魚，在活魚身上劃出一道一道口子來烹飪，這就好像她孩子身上的痕跡。
.
我告訴這位母親說：「妳去佛前用真誠的心，為自己的父母、祖先懺悔、念佛，並且需要勤力去作一些善行，好比說「放生、供燈、發心建道場」吧，不然我也沒別的法子了。」她聽完回去做了這一系列事情的一個月後，她兒子身上的斑痕明顯地淡了一半。所以，做功德、懺悔的作用力太大了！因為我們的祖先、父母過去所做過的一切錯事都會遺傳下來，使子孫後代不安，造成種種的疾病和人生障礙。
.
「真心誦念一句佛號，勝過萬兩黃金。」我們通過為父母祖先念佛、供燈，祈請佛菩薩加持。當我們的祖宗能安寧、祥和、自在了，我們才會平安、吉祥、自在。
.
那麼要如何通過「懺悔、念佛」來消除祖宗所遺傳給我們的業力呢？
歡迎大家在這週六與我一起《為父母祖先念佛》共吧。祝福朋友們早日離苦得樂！
