《六度之智慧》
.
所謂不吃虧的是聰明人;而能吃虧的是智者。為什麼??
其實,聰明難,糊塗更難。
因為要想「糊塗得恰當」是需要智慧的。
所以「難得糊塗」我們也可以理解成「難得智慧。」
.
那麼「智慧」究竟是怎樣的一種境界呢?
對我們的生命有什麼好處?
歡迎一起來聽聽我的說法!

The Six Perfections: Wisdom

As the saying goes, “.. those who do not lose out (be disadvantaged) are known as the clever ones; those who can afford to lose are the wise ones”.
Why is that so??
Actually, while it is difficult to be smart, it is even harder to be “foolish”.
This is because it takes a wise person to be “appropriately foolish”. Thus, we can appreciate that it is rare to be “wise” just as it is rare to be “foolish”.

So what kind of state is “wisdom”?
What is the benefit of wisdom in our lives?
I welcome all to listen to my view!

《六度之禪定》 . . 宋朝大學士蘇東坡…

《六度之禪定》
.
.
宋朝大學士蘇東坡,學富五車,才高八斗,更是一位虔誠的佛教徒。他和隔江的金山寺佛印宗師相處得很好,經常談經論道。
.
有一天,東坡突然靈光一閃,隨手寫了一首詩偈:「稽首天中天,毫光照大千;八風吹不動,穩坐紫金蓮。」他再三吟詠,感到非常的滿意,於是派書僮將此偈送去給佛印宗師。
.
蘇東坡非常期待宗師的「佳音」,不久書僮回來了,東坡急忙將信打開一看,只見宗師歪歪斜斜地寫了「放屁」兩個大字。「豈有此理」蘇東坡瞪大眼睛拍桌:「我找佛印理論去」馬上坐著渡船找佛印理論去了。
.
船才靠岸,就看見佛印宗師已站在江邊含笑相迎。宗師哈哈大笑:「我的大學士,你不是說自己『八風吹不動』嗎?怎麼一個屁就把你打過江來了呢」?蘇東坡到此才恍然大悟,只好低頭不語,唯有羞愧而已!
.
咱們修行若想外不著相、內不動心,練就「八風吹不動」的禪定功夫,請給自己一點時間,聽聽我所講述的禪修的重要性,以及堅持禪修能為人生帶來什麼樣的益處!
.
.
(備註:所謂八風,就是我們日常生活中經常所遭遇到的八種境界的風,它們的名稱是:稱、譏、毀、譽、利、衰、苦、樂。)

The Six Perfections – Meditation

During the Song Dynasty, there was a talented and knowledgeable statesman called Su Dongpo. He was a devout Buddhist and was good friends with Master Fo Yin who lived in the Jinshan Temple across the river. They got together very often to engage in philosophical discussions.

One day, Su Dongpo had an inspiration and wrote a poem:
“As I pay my deepest respect to the great Buddha,
His bright illumination lights up innumerable worlds in the universe;
I am seated firmly on the golden purple lotus,
And nothing can move me, including the eight winds.”

He was very proud of it and wanted to share his creation with his good friend. So he wrote down the poem and dispatched his errand boy to deliver it to Master Fo Yin.

When the boy returned, he took the letter eagerly, expecting to see praises for his brilliance. To his dismay, there was only one big word on the letter: “Bullshit!” He was outraged. Immediately he set off on his boat to dispute with the Master.

As the boat approached, Su Dongpo saw Master Fo Yin standing at the shore smiling at him. “My great statesman! Didn’t you say that you are unmoved even by the eight winds? Why is it that with a single word, I managed to move you across the river?” At that moment, Su Dongpo realized his folly and felt ashamed by his arrogance.

Those of us who are aspiring to master the skill of serenity and be able to remain unperturbed by external factors (what is called “unmovable by the eight winds”), please take some time to listen to what I have to say about the importance and benefits of meditation.

(Note: “Eight winds” refers to eight worldly conditions that we go through in our daily lives: praise, blame, fame, disgrace, gain, loss, suffering and happiness.)

————————————————————————–
誰的青春不迷茫?
.
我學菩提大概有三年時間了,這三年中,親身經歷了身體的種種變化,健康狀況大大改善,性格也不像以前那麼閉塞了,脾氣變得溫和,不像以前總看先生不順眼,他也發現了我的變化,不再每天出去喝酒,而是每天回家吃飯,我們夫妻的感情漸漸的恢復以往的甜蜜。

.
三個月後的現在,我一點一點見證著女兒的變化?
女兒對我說話不再那麼尖銳了,開始願意聽我講話、並嘗試去理解、體會我的心情,心思也變得更沉穩了,以往女兒放學回到家,會直直的衝著我對幹,嫌我衣服給她洗壞了、不滿我亂進她的房間,因為打掃不小心碰到她的東西等等…
.
現在女兒放學回家,不再找我發火了,而是待在房裡安安靜靜地看書、做功課。有一天我偶然聽到她不自覺地唱著《六字大明咒》,我心中暗喜,嘴上卻不說,就當什麼也沒發現,持續每天的持咒回向給女兒。
.
期末考試的時候,她的成績竟然比上學期前進十幾個名次。
我真的又驚喜,又感動,其實對一個母親來說,成績並不是最重要的,重要的是女兒身心的變化,越來越積極、陽光、沉穩懂事了。

Inspiration from Six-Syllable Mantra (Part 3)
A simple and easy way to learn the mantra; welcome all to experience it yourself.
Let me share with you a real story for reference!

————————————————————————————
Who is not confuse during your youth?

I have learn Bodhi Meditation for about three years. During these three years, I have personally experienced various changes in my body; my health has improved greatly and my personality has changed for the better. I am more mild temper now. This is a great contrast to my past where I often find my husband an eyesore. My husband has also noticed that my personality had changed and he no longer goes out to drink everyday, but returns home for meals daily. Our relationship as husband and wife had deepened and has gradually returned to the sweetness we shared in the past.

In the past eight years, the only thing that made me very worried and distressed is my daughter who is in her adolescence. Her favorite activity is to argue with me and spot the loopholes in my speech, giving her a great sense of satisfaction. Three months ago, I started chanting the Six-Syllable Mantra at home everyday, visualizing the compassionate blessings and merits from chanting being transmitted to her.

Now, three months later, I have witnessed gradual changes in my daughter little by little. When conversing with me, her tone is no longer as sharp and she is willing to listen to me, understand and empathize with my feelings. Her mind has become calmer as well. In the past, when she comes home from school, she would confront me and complain about being dissatisfied with how I damaged her clothes when washing them, how I intruded in her private space, all because I accidentally touched her things while cleaning her room and so on….

Now, after my daughter comes home from school, she no longer flares her temper at me. Instead, stays in her room and quietly does her homework and read her books. There was once where I accidentally heard her chanting the Six-Syllable Mantra at home. Although my heart was filled with happiness, I did not make any comments and pretended that I did not notice anything. I persisted in chanting the mantra for her everyday.

At the end of her final exam, her class ranking has risen by more than 10 times since the last semester, making me really surprised and touched by her effort. While results might not be the most important thing, what’s more significant is my daughter’s physical and mental changes. She has become a lot more active, happier and sensible.

I am deeply grateful to Guanyin Bodhisattva for her great compassion, and all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas for helping me and my daughter. Through the compassionate blessing gained from chanting the Six-Syllable Mantra sincerely, my daughter’s rebelliousness had mellowed greatly and she has became more sensible and understanding.
I welcome all to try chanting the inspirational Six-Syllable Mantra!

常行佈施 得到富貴 . . 為什麼有的人…

常行佈施 得到富貴
.
.
為什麼有的人天生好命,富貴吉祥,想擁有的,通過一點努力就能夠得到。有的人就算拼命努力,就是得不到自己想要的呢?這就是命運!
.
要想改變命運,就要多做功德、多做善事、多做佈施。如果我們多佈施,自然就會獲得好運氣、好命相。苦命人會變成好命人。一個命相不好的人,通過做功德,都能轉變自己的面相、手相成為好的。
.
所以,多做功德不僅能遇難呈祥,還能獲得事業所需的智慧和能力。
常向下做佈施的人,會得到眾神與佛菩薩的幫助。常向上做供養佛菩薩和修行人的人,尤其供養已成就的修行人,可積累功德,消累世罪業,甚至獲得成就。

Being generous leads to a prosperous life
.
.
Why are some people born prosperous and auspicious and lead a smooth life? Why do some people succeed in life easily with minimum effort while others fail to get what they want though they try very hard? This is because of life destiny!
.
If you want to change your life destiny, you need to accumulate more positive karmic merits through performing charity work and giving generously. If we are generous in giving, good fortune and destiny will come to us naturally. People who are destined for a hard life will find their life transformed for the better through accumulating positive merits.
.
Hence accumulating positive merits can help us avert calamities and transform our life to an auspicious and blessed one and assist us in gaining wisdom and capability, which is essential for achieving career success.
.
People who always give generously to help the poor will gain blessings from Buddha and Bodhisattvas and those that frequently make offerings to Buddha, Bodhisattvas and great enlightened cultivators will accumulate karmic merits, eradicate past accumulated karmic debts and even attain success in life.

在六度:「布施、持戒、忍辱、精進、禪定、智慧。」中
如何真正圓滿「六度」的最高境界,獲得真正的吉祥幸福?
.
傳說在武林之中,有個「傻子」修練功夫,師父讓他每天到城牆邊的每塊磚上點一下。三年之後竟真的煉成了,從此這個人就以「大力金剛指」出了名,很多人都來跟他學。
.
他鄰居想:「從前他是個草包,是個笨蛋,小時候我把他打得鼻青臉腫的,沒有想到他竟能練出這個來,我一定要超過他。」於是鄰居就去拜「傻子」為師,問:「大力金剛指怎麼練啊?」
.
「傻子」說:「你每天也去點一下城牆磚,但是每個磚一天只能點一下。」
.
這人急著出功夫,每塊磚一天點10下,半年之後指頭竟然斷了?這個叫「拔苗助長」,原本想讓秧苗長快點,刻意去拔高它,沒想到一拔就斷掉了,不但秧苗死了,原先預計的收穫也都沒有了。
.
所以,修行的重點不在於快速,而在於堅持、恆心、真誠。唯有修到最宏觀的般若智慧的狀態,把小我、私心的我放下,讓大家更好,才能達到最高佛陀的境界──把小我變成大我。
.
歡迎大家繼續一起和我聊聊,圓滿「六度」的最高境界。
希望今天我傳遞給大家的,都能夠真正地吸收、消化成為自己的法寶,你將會成為一個最早覺悟、最真誠、最慈悲的聖人。
.
祝福大家六度圓滿、健康平安、幸福快樂。

Newly released : Learn About the Six Perfections – Part 2
.
How do we attain the highest level of the Six Perfections: “Generosity, discipline, tolerance, diligence, meditation and wisdom”? How do we truly gain happiness and auspiciousness?
.
According to legend, there was once a “fool” who practiced martial arts. His master instructed him to use his finger to touch every brick of the city wall. He did that diligently for three years and attained mastery. He became well-known for his finger’s enormous strength and many people came to learn from him.
.
His neighbor thought to himself, “He was once a fool. I used to win him in fights when we were young. Who would have guessed that he became so strong today? I must be better than him.” Thus, his neighbor became his disciple and asked him, “How did you manage to train your finger to be so powerful?”
.
The “fool” replied, “You need to touch every brick of the city wall daily. But remember, only one touch per brick.”
.
This neighbor was eager for result. Instead of touching every brick once, he touched each brick ten times. Half a year later, his finger broke. There is a Chinese saying: trying to help the shoots grow by pulling them upward. The original intention was to let the seedlings grow fast for fast harvest. However, the deliberate pulling of the seedlings caused the shoots to die instead.
Similarly, the essence of self-cultivation is not speed but perseverance and sincerity. Only when we attain the highest state of wisdom, letting go of ego and selfishness moving towards altruism, can we reach the spiritual realm of Buddhahood – a transformation of selfishness to selflessness.
.
I welcome everyone to join me in the discussion of how to attain the highest spiritual realm of Six Perfections. I hope everyone can absorb and benefit from our discussion so that you can attain early enlightenment and be a most sincere and compassionate sage.
.
May you attain the Six Perfections and enjoy health and happiness.

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!!

#覺悟的探索之一、#金菩提宗師開示、#週六共修預告、#智慧、#長壽rnrn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》。

喜歡就請分享,多傳多福!!
祝福朋友們智慧、健康、吉祥、快樂!

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!!
