練習快樂，才會健康！
「所謂的業力就是過去所有錯誤的積累，業力一旦出現，有很多關就跨不過去，但如果功德具足，就能跨越障礙。」
.
人生，是不容易的，每個人都為了三餐溫飽勞碌奔波，還要面對生、老、病、死折騰人的重重關卡，而修行禪法、學佛，可以幫助我們用正確的態度來面對這一切，可以給我們帶來解脫的「智慧」和「能量」。
因為，人生只有這一次，我們需要更認真來學習如何快樂？然後變得健康又幸福！讓我們一起來聽聽「李小妹」的感人故事。。。

來自溫哥華的李小妹:
過去我與父親之間有些不愉快，心中對父親有過埋怨。身體也因為常常積累情緒而變得不好，有些內出血的症狀。
一次的機會，我來報名禪修課程，聽到了師父說:「對父母知恩不圖報會有惡業伴隨你的。」我很震驚，才驚覺到自己這些日子對父母的態度，從小我的父母親非常疼愛我，他們千辛萬苦把我養育成人，並將我培養成一個醫學博士，而我不但沒感恩父母，還對父親心懷成見，常與父親頂撞。現在想想，簡直就是一個小人。
.
後來又聽到師父說:「我就是來幫人的，要幫小人變成大人，幫大人變成聖人。」我想師父沒有放棄我，我要改正，要好好修行。
一回到家，我就給遠隔重洋的父親打了個問候的電話，父親非常欣慰，感動得熱淚盈眶，我的淚水也止不住的流，父女倆多年的心結終於解開了。
.
心結解開了，心情也隨之改變了，每天出門，我看到的天空是份外的藍，份外的潔淨與清新，花兒是如此的美艷，小鳥的叫聲也是格外的悅耳動聽。
.
最重要的是，通過「念佛」和修練「大光明」，我的大出血好了。原來身上被包裹著的一層硬殼，也一層層地剝落了，渾身輕鬆柔軟了。
感動、感恩，與輕鬆，這樣的狀態是我從未有過的體驗，我也要學習將這份喜悅繼續傳下去，引領更多正受著身心疾病折磨的人，也與我一樣變得快樂又健康。

Saw a Face of Happiness…
Practice being happy in order to be healthy!
“What we know about karma is that’s its an accumulation of all the mistakes we have made in the past. The moment karma manifests, there will be a lot of obstacles obstructing our way forward. However, we can easily overcome these obstacles if we have accumulated sufficient merits and virtues.”
Life is never easy. Not only do we have to toil to feed ourselves, we also have to worry about the challenges faced during the four stages of life – birth, old age, sickness and death. Practicing dharma and meditation brings us the wisdom and energy to liberate ourselves and to face those challenges with a positive mindset.
We only have one chance at this life. We should use this opportunity to learn to be happy, which will help us become healthy and blissful! Let us listen to the touching story of how Xiaomei Li found her happiness…
Xiaomei Li from Vancouver:
I used to bear resentment towards my father due to the quarrels we had in the past. The accumulation of negative emotions in my body caused my health to take a turn for the worse some time back and I began to show symptoms of internal hemorrhage.
One day, when I was at the center to register for meditation class, I happened to hear Master say: “Ingratitude towards your parents will cause bad karma to befall you.” This astounded me and made me realize how poor my attitude has been towards my parents. They love me a lot. They have gone through a lot of hardship to bring me up and put me through school to get my medical doctorate. Yet I have never felt gratitude towards them. I even harbored prejudices against my own father, and rebutted him frequently. Come to think about it, I have been really petty.
Not long after that, I also heard Master say: “I am here to help people; to help petty people become magnanimous, and to help magnanimous people become saints.” Knowing that Master will not give up on me gave me the determination to correct my wrongdoings and to persevere in my practice.
The moment I reached home that day, I made a long distance call to my father. He was gratified by my concern, and was so touched that tears filled his eyes. I couldn’t stop my own tears too. The unhappiness that has lived in my heart for so many years melted away in that instant.
From then on, my mood improved. Whenever I am out, I cannot help but admire the sky that is so blue. The air smelled especially clean and fresh. The flowers are so vibrantly beautiful. Even the birds’ songs are especially pleasant to the ears.
Through chanting and practicing the Meditation of Greater Illumination, my internal hemorrhage was cured. The hard shell that has wrapped around me felt off layer by layer and I became more relaxed and at peace.
I have never felt so touched, grateful and relaxed in my life. I realized there are many other people who are suffering from mental and physical ailments in this world. I would like to learn to spread this joy to them and help them achieve happier and healthier lives.
