師佛這趟返台弘法行程已經圓滿畫下句點了,感恩諸佛菩薩加持保佑,沒有因為太多餐會裡不健康的食物而影響到佛體的健康,阿彌陀佛!

記得去年師尊返美前,在網路上許多同門都心痛師尊在台期間每天飯局不斷,每餐兩、三個小時,累又對身體不好,大家都擔心師尊身體是否受得了。當時大家共識是〝不能讓師尊他老人家這麼累〞。結果一年過去了,看來今年在台期間飯局好像也沒少,似乎還更多了,各單位團體也卯足全力,把握師尊最後在台的每一天,輪流幫師尊慶生,也讓來自世界各地的同門有機緣來親近根本上師。

我完全了解大家想親近根本上師的心情(因為我也想),但大家有沒有想過,這樣對師佛的身體好嗎? 師尊是佛,師尊知道弟子想親近祂,師尊慈悲、祂順大家的願,但我們身為弟子是否也該為根本上師身體著想呢?


相信所有同門都希望也祈願師尊佛體安康、長住世間、長壽自在、永轉法輪。
在此懇請大家愛護師尊的身體不要讓他老人家太勞累。

我們身為弟子無權要求師尊可以做什麼、不可以做什麼,但我們可以以身作則,不要再一個分堂、一個分堂的輪流辦餐會,不能聯合起來辦嗎?[can't they combine and arrange dining functions?]

希望大家都來為我們根本上師的身體健康盡自己一份力量。

在這兒,我也祈求諸佛菩薩加持保佑我師佛,身體健康,長壽自在!


This one above, I am sure many fellow students that TRULY Care for Grandmaster Lu have like sentiments. That is do not exhaust Guru or wears him down with private agendas.

Hahaha! Many students proclaimed their love and respect for our Root Guru.
But many students also selfishly THINK that they need to grab the chance of dining with Guru before he retires.

The author of the above has a good point in saying because of "guru's pending retirement" , the dining functions increased despite Guru announcing his displeasure of these functions which infringes on his leisure time and tiring him out.

Pending Retirement - No fixed date yet! 
Hahaha! 

Now lets look at this matter Objectively and with your knowledge of Buddha Dharma too. :)

Employing the Four Noble Truths

Think: Why does One thinks that they need Guru's Physical Presence?

Reflect: Guru said those are cultivate diligently and well are just beside me and those that don't are very far from me, even though they are physically beside me or in close proximity to me.

Cause: The Truth about Cultivation of Buddha Dharma & Tantrayana's concepts are lacking in most that go for the Physical or Forms that they can See; Hear; Touch!

Solution: Learn and armed Self with authentic Buddha Dharma and practice accordingly in One's everyday life.

So the solution is Education! 
However, in this case, Buddha Dharma can only be accepted and utilized by those with Affinity with Buddha and Affinity also varies with Individual's karmic influences!

Sounds pretty contradictory? 

Hahaha! 

However, it is good that there are students that continue to voice their concern for Grandmaster's well being. I also hope that more students will come forward and voice and also put into action their love and care for Grandmaster Lu and halt the exhausting and frivolous functions that benefit the organizers' or Grandmaster's care-givers' pockets only!

** please go watch the video of 17 May 2014 event.
Notice that GM is very tired looking at the start of the event but he brightens once into the cultivation. The large amount of books to sign and acceptance of individuals' hada offering, probably after yet another "Lunch" entertainment arrangement (GM arrived at about 2pm.) surely wears any healthy individual out!


Cheers all
