Assignment Hints 作业提示




Student A1 - wrote answers to this one. 

1.Back in the early days after you took refuge, what is Smoke offering to you, when you First heard about it?

> the practice that strictly needs abhiseka from guru, smoke offering is another way to do offering beside fire puja offering. If never abhiseka can only hear/read sadhana smoke offering

2. Who taught you about Smoke offering and how to go about practicing?

> maha guru secun give a teaching details. 

Secun said have 4 point important .

a.times : morning 5am : 7am (offering for Buddha), night 5pm : 7pm (offering for karmic debt)

b. who : student must do it by own. Practice offering by own, cant represent by others, because their have their own karmic

c.incense place : offer to Buddha put inside our house, offer to debt karmic put outside our house, so smoke can flow outside home.

d.smoke offering : can change our fate , can change our bad karmic become good karmic, after we sincere willing to apologize to them and not repeat or bad karmic again.




3. How do you know that you need Root Guru to give you Abhiseka or Empowerment Transmission?

Before we take refuge, we got information or dharma teaching at tantrayana every sadhana needs abhiseka from guru.

4. Is Smoke offering easy to learn?

Smoke offering , I didn't learn before. But I read some guru articles step more simple than do firepuja, but if we have resource can do firepuja is better than smoke offering

5. Think: Why do people choose to do Smoke Offering? [I explained this one to all of you during Fire puja.]

Because they want to offer sentient being to pay back their debt karmic , do repentance , ask apologize for our debt karmic,also offering to Buddha to have more blessing.


Thanks fashi, have time to teach us hahahha J

~~~~~~~~~

My dear, this one is for BB's case.
I teach another Student to think and answer questions in Assignment!
Hehe!
Another guideline to do Assignment for BB's case
Good you choose to answer too!
Practice more! :)


These are some of my comments for this Assignment, Subject: BB

Not really this one!
Ø  Because he seeking power to fulfill his needs?
 No really! He is asking for a way to maximise efforts of liberation only!
Most of you DECIDED that he is greedy! 
Have you think of why he wants to do Smoke offering and has been doing for Quite some time.....?


PKV do donation not for own need/personal name or desire to get name or proud of who will donate $$$ and get what what…. Charity goes to PKV is helping you to generating bodhicitta
read his email again. yes. Doing smoke offering didn't seem to help him n he thinks he needs MORE Powerful methods, agree? He thinks Smoke offering alone Not Enough, agree?
So what's the problem with BB, from this angle? 


Ø  To help him to more bodhicitta , and not chasing which method is powerful?
He needs to do charity too, to clear Karmic Hindrances & also to share the benefit with all!

The wenshi is $3000 & I only asked him to donate $800, WHY? 


email goes to personal email lotuschef
Contents of email, my dear. :) this is link to Question 4. 


Ø    Because he have taking refuge with guru , can ask from guru. Or represent from temple

  He has been doing Smoke offering for some time.... So he has taken refuge with some Guru.
 
Someone also taught him Smoke offering.
Then why ask Lotuschef?  

Have you thought of GM trying to help him free himself from lousy teachers like Lian H? Hahaha!


Remember Lian H told RD that since he has cultivated 4 preliminaries for some time, he can now cultivate GuruYoga! Is Time the Essence of One's Success or Failure in Cultivation Advancement? :)
Lian H, claimed to be the most senior of GM's student too!
Sadly, he has nothing to show for it, in terms of True or Authentic Guru Yoga!
He is one that GM said, Have not Yoga with me!


But at this present time, he is not ready for educating, so we wait a while lol! 
I am going to help him soon anyway, because HE WROTE AND ASK!
Affinity Link established! Hahaha!

Buddha Dharma is Great? 
We use wisdom and compassion to help others n $$$ don't matter. 

GM said won't leave out anyone! So do you think I will leave out anyone? :)



Because bb have practice smoke offering before, maybe can ask from his root guru

Yes. Who taught him Smoke Offering? 
Also who taught him to use 6 realms vajra mantra joss paper? 
Pure Karma & Lotuschef didn't teach him, correct? 
So how to advice him on something we didn't teach him? 

Ø  he maybe got abhiseka through temple, I don't have idea about mix with 6realms to do smoke offering,  fashi can give advise  not for that purpose or not yet experience for him to do smoke offering (this one need consultation time hahaha)

 already in my plans to extend help


Ø  bb not willing to test fashi lar hehehe , but give assignment for us to learn
 He found from my blog that his teachers are lousy because of GM sharing Maha Perfection now n also telling all that most VMs have not yoga with GM yet.
Blogspot is under lotuschef.ven@gmail.com 
Many of you tricked by me and went on to suggest all kinds of scenario! 
Simple is the answer lol!


Ya sentient being wants instant answer, don want to search articles posted
Not this, my dear. Read BB's email carefully again. 
Now Grade his standard of understanding of Buddha Dharma, what I teach him will all be wasted as he goes for Maximise Efforts = more powerful! 
So much hype about Joss paper too!
His standards are real low, not worth my teaching him or saving him at this point in time, though in the future, he might develop enough affinity for someone to help him.


Ø  He don't trust his guru, still seeking for more powerful liberation., Not only for this 6 realms vajra mantra,I remember we chant guru mantra long version – at burning incense paper for earth god, other sentient being – mahaguru long version mantra was contained this 6 realms

 actually any method is good & depends on whether individual wants to put effort or not! 

Remember that I advised you to chant 100 syllable mantra, if you don't do, I also can't force you, right? Surprisingly, you listened to me! Hehe! I am not VM, but somehow you believe me! hehe!

Now go see Article One, I put in lots of article with Information about the 6-realms vajra mantra!

Not one of you noticed that I am already helping BB by sharing with him what this mantra is all about! :)

Then the Mind Training articles!

Hahaha! 
I am helping BB!

Article one has lots of CLUES! 

You all didn't bother to look properly, too busy with answering my questions!!! 

Isn't Mind Training wonderful?
Everything in those 2 articles are Clues!

Now, THINK you are satisfied with what you have submitted?
Hehe!
I suggest you try again! 
Cheers 


Dear all,
YES! Not One of you that submitted "answers" on this Assignment really read Both Articles thoroughly!

What GM teaches on Boddhicitta also didn't appear in any of your "answers".

You see what you want to see, & hear what you want to hear! :)

This one, very obvious didn't put in GM's teachings of Mutual Exchange of Status or Personality! 自他互换 !GM has shared this method many times & also in my blogs!

[Well, I don't know this BB, don't know his intention and what living or cultivation path that he wanted to be. Secondly, I also don't know what Lama Lotuschef's view. I have no answer for this.]


This student also have like mentality of "Don't know"! :)
[JJ: - Sorry, I no idea. Because different people have different perception. I don't know whose is BB & what purpose of it.

I suggest to all that have sent in "Answers", please read both articles over & over again.

You can also do Role-play, that is, You are BB now, Read his email 50 times out loud as if you are talking to Lotuschef. Get into the Role properly and you might udnerstand GM's Mutual Exchange of Status or Personality! 自他互换 !

I have expanded much time to comment on each Answer submission, I sincerely hope that All appreciate this Interactive learning and on a One by One basis too!

Dateline for this Assignment, once again, 21st July 2014 @12 Noon.

It is up to Individual to Help themselves and really nothing to do with me. :)

Game to try?

You are most welcome!


Cheers all


Om Guru Lian Sheng Siddhi Hom
Lama Lotuschef
