Build Foundation - Four Preliminaries Practice 建基础 － 四加行法

Terjemahan Bahasa: Bangun Fondasi – Sadhana Empat Prayoga 建基础 － 四加行法

Above: GM Lu holding out a mobile phone with photos showing the Sariras from the late VM Lian Xin 蓮信上師, who was cremated the same day as yesterday's event in Caotun Temple, Nantou.

Quoting from 5-7-2011 The Importance of the Four Preliminaries:

`What is the most important practice?`
`The Four Preliminaries` I replied.
`Why?`
`The Four Preliminaries Practice is the very foundation of Tantric Buddhism. If the foundation is weak, all cultivation is simply like building castles in the air.`

When we begin our cultivation of the Tantric practices, we must first build the foundation, as it is required for preparing the ground of cultivation, hence, the Preliminaries.

The Four Preliminaries are each embedded with profound significance.

蓮生活佛讚揚「蓮信上師」是「真佛宗第一位功德主」，功德巍巍！，

蓮信上師也是協助「台灣雷藏寺」建寺，弘法不遺餘力尊貴的上師。

GM Lu enumerated VM Lian-xin's various meritorious deeds, like being instrumental in the success of erecting Caotun Temple.

在火供時，蓮生活佛清楚的看見蓮信上師立於火上，直接成佛！

坐在蓮花上，様貎如阿羅漢，非常真實清楚！
During the event, GM Lu has a very clear sighting of VM Lian-xin in the Homa fires, directly attained Buddhahood!

He was sitting on a lotus flower, appearance like Arhat, very true and clear!

這是「中陰成佛」，是第二等的成佛，是非常非常難能可貴！

This [Bardo attain Buddhahood] is the 2nd class Buddhahood attainment, very very rare and precious!

蓮生活佛感謝蓮信上師！

並作為真佛宗的見證，是真佛宗的光榮。

 

蓮信上師是「敬師、重法、實修」，在今天火化後，燒出了「金剛舍利」如姆指大，非常稀有珍貴；而且還有各種顏色的「舍利子」、「舍利花」。

VM Lian-xin practiced [Respect Guru, Value Dharma, Diligent Cultivation], and upon cremation today, sarira the size of thumb, [Vajra Sarira], resulted, these are rare and precious; and there are various types of sarira in various shapes too.

Dear all,

During his Dharma speech yesterday, GM Lu brought up the topic of authenticity of Dharma shared by him.

The resulting sarira from cremation, proved that what GM Lu taught and shared are authentic and can lead a diligent student to eventual Buddhahood if adhered too steadfastly!

Hahaha!

It is not Dharma that is no good, but dependent on the student practicing Dharma!

Yet another good motivation for all to start as per GM Lu "From the beginnning" and "Step by step" too!

A word of caution: Do not attempt to jump before you can even stand erect to walk!

Think that you have ample foundation or did enough Ground works?

Chat: 

A: One must feel drawn by the person, a guru, VM, true yogi, - its an unconscious kind of charisma :) 

B: even the esoteric moslems said that charisma was the kind of invisible light

A: its a homing signal lol
u want to be a part of this circle or family n wants to abide within

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the above CHAT, I am sharing how to distinguish a True Yogi or one in the making already! :)

Now look at GM Lu's and VM Lian-xin's photo, do both of them draw you?

Does both shine with welcoming warmth and give you a sense of belonging?

Cheers all
