A Bright Full Moon_ Awaken the Buddha within!

According to Buddha: [All sentient beings possess Buddha nature] This applies to dogs, cats, jackals, tigers and even leopards.

On a bright full moon, an old Zen master awakened the innate goodness of a burglar using tolerance and compassion and this turned the burglar back from his wrong path. The old Zen master believed everyone possesses Buddha nature. He believed that even a burglar had an innate kind nature, it was just that his kindness was blinded by his desire and greed! By giving love and compassion to the burglar, the sleeping kindness in him can be awakened and he may become a Buddha.

This is viewing the world with a Buddha’s heart: Apparently, a Buddha lies in the hearts of all sentient beings!

When you refuse to give up on any sentient being and love the people in your life, your compassionate and kind thoughts will lead others towards an illuminated path and this may create thousands and millions of Buddha.

Set a higher expectation for yourself: [Be strict towards yourself and lenient towards others!]

Supposing you are the burglar and you receive compassion and tolerance from the old Zen master, how would you feel? What would you do?

May we use the compassionate and tolerant light of a bright full moon to illuminate every dark corner of the world.

May all be illuminated, auspicious, wise and happy!

一輪明月_下集

當小偷剛走出屋門時,看到了站在一旁沖他微笑的老禪師,頓時慌了手腳。
.
看到慌張的小偷,老禪師開口道:「山路這麼遠,你來探望我,總不好空手而歸吧!我沒有值錢的東西送給你,但夜裡寒涼,這件外套就送給你吧!」說著,禪師便將自己身上的外套脫下來,披在了小偷身上。
.
小偷披著禪師的外套,慚愧地匆匆溜走了。望著小偷走遠的背影,老禪師感歎道:「可憐的人呀,但願我能送你一輪明月!」
.
第二天一早,老禪師起床後推開自己的屋門,驚訝地發現,昨晚自己送給小偷的那件外套被整齊地疊放在門口。
.
看到眼前的這一幕,老禪師歡喜地說道:「我真的送給了他一輪明月啊!」
.
故事結語:
老禪師以寬容和仁愛之心,喚醒了小偷內心的善良,使他迷途知返,找到了心的方向。
.
生活中,如果我們也能像老禪師一樣,學著用慈悲寬容的心對待他人,並給予對方真誠的關懷,那麼很可能會因為這一份善念,便能使他人,走上一條光明的人生道路。

A Bright Full Moon _ Part 2

As the thief was leaving through the door, he sighted the old Zen master standing by the side smiling at him, and panicked instantly.

Seeing the frantic thief, the old Zen master spoke, “This mountain path is so remote, and since you have come so far to visit me, I can’t have you leave empty-handed! I don’t have anything valuable for you, but since it’s cold here at night, let me offer you this coat!” With that, the Zen master removed his coat and place it on the thief.

Draped in the Zen master’s coat, the thief slipped away in shame. Glancing at the departing thief, the old Zen master lamented, “Poor man! I wish I could give you a bright full moon.”

Early next morning, when the old Zen master rose and opened his door, he was surprised to find the coat he had given the thief the night before neatly folded and placed on his doorway.

Seeing this sight, the old Zen master joyously exclaimed, “I had really given him a bright full moon!”

Moral of the story:
The benevolence and compassion of the old Zen master had ‘awakened’ the thief’s innate goodness, causing him to repent and revert after regaining his life bearings.

In life, if we can also learn to be like the old Zen master – treat others with compassion and benevolence, and care sincerely – then it is likely that such good thoughts would enable many more people to embark on a illuminated path in life.

一輪明月_上集
.
在山上的一間小茅屋裡,住著一位修行多年的老禪師。一天晚上,月光皎潔,禪師在樹林裡散步之後,回到自己居住的小茅屋。
.
到了屋門前,老禪師正欲推門時,發現有一個小偷正在屋裡偷東西。
.
老禪師生怕自己的突然出現會驚嚇到小偷,於是就一直站在門外等小偷自己出來。而小偷在屋裡沒有找到任何值錢的東西,只好不甘心地離去。
.
當小偷剛走出屋門時,看到了站在一旁沖他微笑的老禪師,頓時慌了手腳。
.
你知道老禪師會怎樣處置這個小偷呢?
1.將小偷送衙門查辦。
2.裝作不知道,沒發生過這件事。
3.冲小偷大笑,說歡迎光臨寒舍。
.
如果是你,家中遇到小偷光顧,你會怎樣做呢?
明天,讓我們繼續看下去。。。

A Bright Full Moon _ Part 1

In a small hut on the hill, there lived an accomplished old Zen master with many years of practice. One moonlit night, after a stroll in the woods, the Zen master returned to his little hut.

As he got to the door and pushed it, the old Zen master discovered a thief in his house.

The old Zen master was afraid that his sudden appearance might alarm the thief, so he stood outside the door waiting for the thief to go out. The thief did not find anything valuable in the house and had to leave reluctantly.

As the thief was leaving through the door, he sighted the old Zen master standing by the side smiling at him, and panicked instantly.

Do you know how the old Zen master would handle this thief?
1. Report the thief to the Magistrate for investigation,
2. Feign unawareness, pretend that nothing had happened,
3. Laugh good naturally at the thief, and said: “Welcome to my humble hut”.

If it were you, what would you do if you encounter a thief at home?
Let’s continue with this story tomorrow…
