GM Lu on Lineage 鲁师尊讲传承




2016年5月29日聖尊蓮生活佛盧勝彥開講「道果」-彩虹雷藏寺
05/29/2015 Teachings of Lamdre by Grand Master Lu-Rainbow Temple
Yesterday, GM Lu talks about Lineage Transmission. :)

And, Cautioned all about loosing the Lineage Transmission Empowerment!

Today?

He brought up the poor attendance by US students as compared to those in Asia.

Hahaha!


The above is attendance of TBS' elite on 28 May 2016 in Seattle Temple.

Today's attendance?






Hahaha!
A real poor show of attendance or support from TBS' elite?

After Maha Perfection, Why is GM Lu bringing up "Forms" ?

Absence in physical Form, doesn't mean anything to GM Lu, a Living Buddha, agree?

Hahaha!

GM Lu cautioning those that even "Absent in Spiritual Form"!

Are you unhappy with the "Take Over Arrangement" announced by GM Lu recently in Taiwan Temple?

Do you think that you are completely nullified of any Say in the future of TBS?

Do you think you need to have your Say and have it "Materialised"?

If you read the Lamdre - Dawn of Enlightenment, you will realised that you are also given EQUAL Opportunities to [Experience and Void] and Attain "Pure Vision".  :)

Extract from page 52
<<The Lamdre teachings are divided into two sections — first the preliminary section and then the tantric section. 
The preliminary section focuses on the Three Visions. 
The ‘three visions’ referred to are the impure vision, the vision of experience and the pure vision. 
One may have three different perceptions of the same subject, depending on the state of one’s mind.>>
Hahaha!

GM Lu kept stressing that Nothing Is Important, All Illusionary and Everything is the Best Arrangement!
These are important Keys to Pure Vision!

Please don't loose your Lineage Transmission Link with GM Lu, your Root Guru!

With Metta,

Lamdré 道果 [1A] - Origin & Lineage 起源和传承

Hevjra
Drokmi Lotsawa

The Lamdré (Skt. mārgaphala; Wyl. lam ‘bras), 'Path with the Result' instructions, related to the deity Hevajra, are the highest teachings within the Sakya school. 

They developed into two major lines of transmission:
the general presentation known as Lamdré Tsokshé (Explanation for Assemblies) and
the secret presentation known as Lamdré Lopshé (Explanation for Private Disciples).


Name
As H.H. Sakya Trizin explains: "The term lamdré means 'path and result'. 
This term indicates that this sacred system of teachings encapsulates the core Sakya philosophy and practices resulting in the realization of the indivisibility of samsara and nirvana."
History
As H.H. Sakya Trizin explains: 
"In the early Sakya tradition, Lamdré was actually one teaching. 
Later, during the time of Müchen Könchok Gyaltsen, when he gave Lamdré teachings, he gave the most esoteric, essential, and important teachings to his innermost disciples in his private room, whereas for the assemblies he gave the common teachings. 
Since then there have been two Lamdré.” 

Tsarchen Losal Gyatso (1502–67) was an important master of the Sakya tradition, the founder of the Dar Drangmo Ché Monastery and the Tsar school of the Sakya order and holder of the Lamdré Lopshé transmission. 

A number of his writings survive, especially his compositions on the Hevajra visualization and on the Vajrayogini teachings. 
His biography was written by the Fifth Dalai Lama
His chief disciples were Mangtö Ludrup Gyatso, Yol Khenchen Zhönnu Lodrö, the Third Dalai Lama Sonam Gyatso, Zhalu Khenchen Khyentse Wangchuk, and Bokarwa Maitri Döndrup Gyaltsen.
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Eight Practice Lineages aka the Eight Great Chariots of the Practice Lineage (Wyl. sgrub brgyud shing rta chen mo brgyad) — 
the eight principal traditions which 'transported' the Buddhist teachings from India to Tibet. 
They are:
[1] Nyingma—the teachings of the kama, terma and pure vision traditions within the Nyingma School of Ancient Translations, which had come down in an aural lineage transmitted by countless learned and accomplished masters, all thanks to the kindness of Khenpo Shantarakshita, Guru Padmasambhava and the Dharma-King Trisong Deutsen.

[2] Kadam—the divine teachings of the Old and New Kadam traditions, founded by the incomparable and glorious Lord Jowo Atisha and further developed through the magnificent efforts of Lobsang Drakpa, who was Manjushri in person.
[3] Lamdré/Sakya—the essential instructions of the 'Path with its Result' (Tib. Lamdré), the heart-essence of the mahasiddha Virupa, which came down to the glorious Sakyapa founders and their heirs, and were then passed on by the various lineages including those of Sakya,Ngor and Tsar (Wyl. sa ngor tsar gsum).
[4] Marpa Kagyü—the four streams of teachings within the Kagyü tradition that stems from Marpa, Milarepa and Gampopa, and branched into the four major and eight minor Kagyü lineages.
[5] Shangpa Kagyü—the golden doctrine of the dakini Niguma from the glorious Shangpa Kagyü, which comes from the learned and accomplished Khyungpo Naljor.
[6] Kalachakra/'Six Branch Practice of Vajrayoga' (Tib. Jordruk; Wyl. sbyor drug)—the 'Six-Branched Application', which emphasizes the Vajra Yoga of the perfection stage of the splendid Kalachakra, and which came to Tibet from the noble Dharma-kings of India and others such as Kalapada in early, intermediate and later phases, and developed into seventeen traditions, which were then brought together and passed on by the renunciate Tukjé Tsöndru and others.
[7] Shyijé and Chö—the noble teachings of the 'Pacifying of Suffering' Tradition coming from Padampa Sangyé together with the profound teachings on the objects of severance, or Chö, which were passed on by Machik Lapdrön and others.
[8] 'Approach and Accomplishment of the Three Vajras'—the teachings bestowed on the mahasiddha Orgyenpa Rinchen Pal by the mother of the buddhas, Vajrayogini herself.

Note: the Jonang and Gelug schools are not part of this list because they formed within Tibet.

    Invoke GM's presence & visualize he is smiling at you. This part is easy as we watch GM Live Broadcast all the time and there are plenty of him smiling and laughing too.
    Then visualize GM empowers you with Brilliant White Light. Then chant Guru's mantra and visualize he is sitting upon a lotus in your Heart Chakra.
    You should feel secure; care for; at ease and peaceful after a while if you maintain the visualization.
    Then talk to GM like you would your parents or any one dear to you.
    That's all.
    After a while, you can do this as you are going about your daily routine like walking, sitting in a car/bus/train......

    GM said, if the one that is giving the blessing & or whatever, can not invoke the presence of the Divinities, then he has "No Power" to deliver his promise!

Lamdre 道果 [1]


Above: GM Lu with book [道果] in hand.

Extracted from: 



LAMDRE — DAWN OF ENLIGHTENMENT is a unique work which describes the actual teachings disciples will receive. 

Special features of this work include:

— The origins of the lineage and the special characteristics of the Lamdre system.

— An integrated perspective on the three vehicles: Theravada, Mahayana and Vajrayana.

The respective roles of teachers and disciples within Buddhism, with particular reference to the Vajrayana.

How disciples can benefit by incorporating the Lamdre approach into every aspect of their spiritual practice and their daily lives.

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

Dear all ,
You can look through the above and compare with what GM Lu has already shared this past 40+ years, should Lamdre be a BIG Problem to understand?

Hahaha!

You can actually make things easy for yourself if you do some research and 'Homework" on Lamdre, then you will be able to understand what GM Lu is trying to simplify for all!
There are Chinese and English books published on Lamdre, so put in due efforts if you truly want to learn and make a difference to your life as well as that of others!
Remember: Always bring Boddhicitta with you!

2016年5月28日聖尊蓮生活佛盧勝彥開講「大圓滿九次第法」及「道果」-西雅圖雷藏寺05/28/2015 Nine Stages Dharma of the Great Perfection Dzogchen and Teachings of Lamdre by GM Lu

Speeches by the following two VMs...




2016年5月28日蓮花德輝及蓮印金剛上師致詞-西雅圖雷藏寺
In today's speech, GM Lu said again: 迷是众生,悟是佛!
When Lost is Sentient beings or mortals, when Enlightened is Buddha!
~~~~~~~~~
Excerpts of the speech:

因为佛法无尽才叫圆满!
Because Buddha Dharma is infinite thus termed Maha Perfection!

大圆满最后的修法是把, 从顶轮,眉心轮,喉轮,心轮,脐轮,秘轮,海底轮,七轮的脉全部打开,迎外面的光进到里面来。
还有自己的拙火跟明点互相融合产生的光明。
把七个轮全部打开,然后七个轮全部放光。
到了涅般的时候就变成虹光化身。。。。把这个人的躯壳丢掉。
化为一道彩虹上升天际。
无穷无尽。
每一个祖师都是这样子。
[The above is GM Lu's description of Rainbow Body Attainment Dharma]

在宇宙之间,没有前后。
人间本来是虚幻。
In the Universe, there is not before or after.
Human realm is originally Illusionary.
[This is mainly on the Perception of Time. Hehe! Important to understand fully.]

[At 25:00/52:15]
.....你的身体是幻虚.......由不得你....不想生病.....还会病.

还好,瑶池金母叫地母给我一杯水。
Still good that Yao-pond Golden Mother instructed Earth Mother to give me a cup of water. - (So we now know for sure that Jin-mu didn't desert GM Lu at all, agree?)

虽然,三际一如,全部都是虚幻。
Although the 3 Times is As One, all are illusionary.

大家要懂得全部是虚幻,才会有平等心。
We all must understand that all are illusionary, then will have Equality Mindset.

因为有了平等心,你才会产生菩提心
With existence of Equality Mindset then we can develop Boddhicitta.
[GM Lu stressed the importance of Boddhicitta again, and its an Important ingredient in attainment of Buddhahood.]


...[Time 46:24/52:15]
所以,刚才大家这个跟我讲健康啊,长寿啊,要这个永远的住世啊,要可以到处啪啪走啊,到处去游山玩水啊,非常虚幻。
刚才德辉讲的[非常虚幻]。
Thus, what you all said to me about health, long-life, and must abide forever in this realm, must go around and play,...... All very illusionary.
Just now, what De-hui said [All very illusionary].
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hahaha!
Whats my point in the above Title for this post?

The speech by De-hui as GM Lu said: All very illusionary!

At the point when GM Lu wraps up Maha Perfection and moves on to Lamdre,
the contents of De-hui's speech is truly out of context in time and level!
AND yet, he quoted GM Lu's words - [The Best Arrangement]!

So, GM Lu played with him! :)

The other speech by Lian-yin fared better in my humble view, as he incorporated the necessaries for Cultivation from Ground Zero to Fruition. :)

As GM Lu said, the talk on what health, long-life, leisurely pursuits, abide forever in this realm,..... are All Very Illusionary, especially after his recent bout of Cellulitis!

Tip: If GM Lu wants to go and play, does he need to do so "Physically"?
OR, Visible to Human Eyes?  :)


Listen carefully to this speech again and if necessary, repeatedly.

GM Lu gave you keys to Let Go, Break Free, Rainbow Body Attainment,.....

The Verse of Praise to Virupa!
Don't miss any!

GM Lu is Well & Commenced Sharing Lamdre 道果 today! YAY!







GM Lu said that Maha Perfection engulfs everything!

??? Hehe!
This leads to Lamdre to help you!

Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamdre

Lamdré is a meditative system in Tibetan Buddhism rooted in the view that the result of its practice is contained within the path. 
The name "lamdré" means the “path" (Wylie: lam) with its fruit Wylie:‘bras).

lamdré as Practice

The lamdré system is rooted in a very specific view, that the path and its result are contained within each other. 
All beings have an inherently enlightened nature; however, due to afflictive obscurations, they are prevented from recognizing this nature. The path to Buddhahood, then, aims at removing these obscurations and experiencing the liberated existence of nirvāṇa.

Jetsün Dragpa Gyaltsen summarized the path into five stages: 
1. initiation 
2. the creation stage 
3. the completion stage 
4. training 
5. concluding practice with tantric seals

The view that saṃsāra (cyclical existence) and nirvana (liberation from suffering) are indivisible illuminates the Lamdré teachings. 

To enter the path, a student must be consecrated (Skt. abhiṣeka) by an authentic mentor (Skt. [guru]], Tibetan lama), who instructs the student on how to recognize his or her own buddha-nature

Initiation into the system of practice is crucial because it shows the Lamdré practitioner the result of the path, the wisdom of a buddha.

After being consecrated, the student then engages in the practices of the path. The path includes specific meditations and yogic exercises that aim to remove the adventitious obscurations that are the cause suffering. 

As with most Anuttarayoga Tantra systems, the Lamdré practitioner will engage in two stages of meditation
the creation stage (Wylie: bskyed rim), where the meditator attempts to embody the awake nature of a buddha, 
and the completion stage (Wylie: rdzogs rim), which includes yogic meditations on various parts of the tantric anatomy. 
These practices directly purify obscurations.

In the lamdré tradition, the instructions for mediation are passed orally from mentor to student. 

As with all tantric Buddhist lineages, in the lamdré tradition, maintaining the secrecy of the teachings is extremely important. 
This is a reason why the consecration and initiation of the student into the tradition is strongly emphasized. 
Although eventually teachers like Sachen Künga Nyingpo wrote down oral instructions, originally, the important texts were memorized by the students. 
This tradition continues to the present day, where some oral teachings remain unwritten, known only by lamdré lineage holders.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hahaha!

Dear all, any of you realised that Lamdre 道果 , is yet another approach or alternative Route to Nirvana for those with affinity to these method?

As GM Lu progresses with the sharing of Lamdre, hope you don't find that you lack Fundamentals to comprehend and walk in step with GM Lu!

I am real happy that GM Lu is well!

:) :) :)  Yay! Yay!

誰放誰的假?Who Gives Who Leave/ A Break?

 

Selective Translation into English by Lotuschef.
Do your own if you so please, for a version that You can truly understand.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

蓮生活佛 > 師尊文集 > 232_笑話中禪機 > 誰放誰的假?

笑話一則:A joke:
數學課的時候。  
老師見學生一個個無精打采,老師說:「只要有人能解出這道難題,我就放你們假。」
During Mathematics lesson, teacher upon seeing that students are listless, said: If have anyone that can solve this difficult problem, I will let you all have a break.

學生一聽放假,大家精神就來了,台下異口同聲的回答:「好!」
Students upon hearing these, all spruced up, and unanimously replied: [Good!]

老師接著又問:「要是沒有人能解答出來呢?」
Teacher followed by asking: If no one can solve then?

小明突然冒出一句:「解答不出來,我們放老師的假。」
Xiao-ming suddenly said: If can't solve, then we give teacher a break.

台下學生,掌聲不斷。
Students below the stage all clapped non-stop.
哈!哈!哈!
Hahaha!
  
盧師尊解析:GM Lu clarified:
學生喜歡放假。Students like to have breaks.
老師也喜歡放假。Teachers also like to have breaks.
這是相對的。This is comparison.

如果你了解了人的心理,很多事情會迎刃而解的,不會打了一個死解。
If you understand people's mindset, many matters can be solve like the bamboo splits off when it meets the knife's edge, won't form a dead knot. 
禪也是一樣的,你可以用反面的思考,解決一切的難題。
Zen is also similar, you can use the opposite side to ponder, to solve all difficult problem.

龍穴山和尚。  
僧人問:「如何是祖師西來意?」
山和尚答:「騎虎唱巴歌。」
如果我來答:「放假了!祖師放假了!」
僧人問:「既然是大善知識,為什麼給土地公燒紙錢?」
山和尚答:「彼上人者難為酉壽對。」
如果我來答:「拿著錢,好好放假去旅行。」

大乘山和尚。
僧人問:「枯木逢春時如何?」
大乘山和尚答:「世間希有。」
如果我來答:「閒花放大假。」
僧人問:「如何是四方八面事?」
大乘山和尚答:「升子裏 跳,斗子內轉身。」
如果我來答:「環遊世界八十天。」

延慶歸曉禪師。 
Zen master, Yan-qin Gui-yao.
僧人問:「言語道斷時如何?」 
Monk asked: what happens when speech and language path breaks/exhausted?
歸曉禪師答:「兩重公案。」
Zen master, Gui-yao replied: Two type of Koan.

如果我來答:「夏威夷海灘曬太陽。」
If for me, I would answer: Sunbathing at Hawaiian sea-shores.

僧人問:「如何是境中人?」
歸曉禪師答:「識嗎?」
如果我來答:「放他假去!」

(盧師尊提示:沒有想到一個放假的笑話,給我這麼多的靈感。
但,聖弟子想一想,我本如來佛,到這人間本是放假,又何必勞勞碌碌?大家放假,高高興興去玩)
GM Lu's pointers: Didn't think that a joke on taking a break, gave me so much inspiration.
But, saintly students, think on this, I am originally Buddha, came to Human realm for a break/holiday, why need to be tiring and buzzing busy?
Lets all take a break, happily go and play.

~~~~~~~~~~
Research:

言語道斷 心行處滅
Link: https://tw.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110523000016KK02249
最佳解答: Best explantion:
佛陀所徹悟出來的實相,超過人類所能理解的程度,無法用人類的語言和文字來解說。
Buddha's realisation came from Truth, surpassed Human race level or degree of understanding, can't use Human's language or written words to explain.

最好的辦法,是親身實證,大家都依照佛陀實驗成功的驗證方法,親自去實驗,等自己進入三昧(或稱三摩地)的深層禪定狀態,就能知道實相究竟是什麼。
The Best method, is to self affirm, through experience like Buddha, await when self enters Samadhi or Deep Zen meditative state, then will realise the Truth.

In the above clip: Zen is another word for Path!

Another example is Buddha picked up an Udumbara flower and a smile appeared on Maha Kassapa's face.
A silent transmission without speech!
 

Hahaha! Can you read from the above and figure out what story each one shared?


Buddha Dharma is a massive web of links with infinite pathways!

Realise that from a joke of taking a break or holiday, lots of interesting Dharma concepts can come together?

暈眩症來的時候 When Dizziness Come




Translated into English by Lotuschef.
You can also do your own if you so please, for a version that suits and represents you! 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
蓮生活佛 > 師尊文集 > 254_至尊的開悟 > 暈眩症來的時候


在很多很多年前。
Many years ago.

我曾患過「暈眩」的毛病,那是很不好的回憶,毛病是這樣的:
I had [dizziness] problem, that is not good memories, the problem is like this:

我與友人在泰式餐廳吃飯,突然來了一陣暈眩,我把吃的東西,全吐了出來。
I was dining with friends in a Thai-food restaurant, suddenly felt dizzy, I vomited all the food I ate.

後來,愈來愈嚴重:
Later, became more and more serious:

躺床上,整個床在旋轉。房子在旋轉。
Lying in bed, the whole bed spun. House is spinning.

走樓梯,鞋子都不能踩得很準,東倒西歪的,重心不穩,只能扶著樓梯走。
While walking on stairs, shoes also can't step accurately, swaying to both sides, center of gravity not stable, only can hold on to the stairs and walk.

人虛脫了!
I became dehydrated!

洗臉的時候,突然失去了方向感,眼前一片漆黑,身不知何處?
While washing my face, suddenly lost sense of direction, see darkness only and body do not know direction?

聽說:I heard that:
有人就溺斃在臉盆裡。
Some people drowned in the face basin.

有人頭撞上水龍頭,血流滿面。
Some people knocked against the tap, bled all over their faces.

暈眩時,吃什麼,吐什麼。
When dizzy, whatever I ate, I vomited.

人暴瘦。I suddenly became very thin.

有時候的感覺,人如同在虛空中旋轉,一切的東西全在旋轉。
Sometimes felt as if I am spinning in the Illusionary void, everything also spinning.

身子不由自主的傾向一邊,在走路的時候,要扶著牆壁走。
My body unconsciously veered towards on side, when walking need to hold on to the wall.

全部的生活,完全變調了。
All my living activities completely changed tune.

(醫師說,我是耳水不平衡,而且是嚴重性的,要吃藥,等候慢慢的恢復)
(Doctor said that the fluid in my ears are not balanced, and very serious, must take medication, and wait to slowly recover)

簡而言之── To simply put it ---
平衡的機器壞了!(此症在一個月後,才痊癒)
Balance mechanism spoiled! ( This illness took a whole month to heal)

在二○一六年的二月二十五日。It's 15th February 2016.

我遇見了韓佳良先生,他想皈依我,但,他還不是皈依的弟子。
I met Mr. Han-jia-liang, he thinking of taking refuge with me, but, he is not a student yet.

他說:「他得了暈眩症!狀況也是嚴重的。」
He said: He has dizziness problem! And very serious state.

我問:「怎麼好的?」
I asked: What to do?

韓佳良說:我沒有皈依盧師尊,卻夢見盧師尊,夢見時:
盧師尊坐在正中央,右左各有二個人。
Han-jia-liang said: I have not taken refuge with GM Lu, but I dreamt of GM Lu, at the time of the dream: GM Lu was sitting in the middle and there are 2 persons on each side.

只見盧師尊不知用什麼手法。
讓我在虛空中翻滾。
Only can see GM Lu don't know use what method, making me turn round and round in the illusionary void.

如同太空人,在沒有地心吸引力之下,在大氣中旋轉身子。
Like astronauts, spinning in space without gravitational pull to angle them.

轉了一些時候。
夢就醒了!
After spinning for a while, I woke up!

怪的是,夢一醒,暈眩症就好了!
The funny thing is, upon waking from the dream, my dizziness problem healed!

我聽了哈哈大笑。
Hearing these, I laughed loudly.

我說:「旋轉再旋轉,就把平衡轉正了!」
I said: Spin and spin again, then Balance spun and righted!

我覺得:I feel that:
這世間上的人,都是不平衡的人!因為有缺陷的人,才會留在這虛幻的世間。
People in this sentient realm, are all unbalanced! Because all have faults, then have to stay in this illusionary sentient realm.

身子暈眩的少。Dizziness of body not many.
心的暈眩才多呢!Dizziness of Heart then alot!

有些人,一面說著很有學問的話,但,行為上卻有很大的偏差。
Some people, on one hand speaking very learned words, but, their behaviour have great differences.

很有學問的人,嫉妒更有學問的人。
Very learned people, jealous of those more learned.

吃醋。Jealousy.
鬥爭。Disputes and fights.
瞎掰。Blind or false theories/statements.

做出違背天理的事!
Perpetuating deeds against the Heavenly rule!

走入失去平衡歧路的人非常多,而且比比皆是。
Many walked into unbalance road forks, and most are like this when comparing around.

所以這個世間是失衡的世間。
Therefore, this world realm is one that has lost balance.

唯有修行:Only with Cultivation:
空性,才能得到完美與永久的平衡,這也是行者的目的了!
Void nature, then can be perfect and forever balanced, this is the target of cultivators!

(自知眾生皆吽字)
(Self knows that sentient beings all are Hom syllable)

Anti-Inflammatory Foods for a Healthier Body



http://bembu.com/anti-inflammatory-foods

Eating an anti-inflammatory diet can help reduce inflammation in the body and help with certain conditions that are caused by or worsened by inflammation. This can include diseases like heart disease, Parkinson’s disease, and Crohn’s disease, to conditions like eczema, asthma, and arthritis. 
The great part about eating anti-inflammatory foods is that many are also Superfoods, and good for you for a host of other reasons, including warding off cancer, losing weight, and having more energy.

The following are some examples and I selected those that I eat frequently. :)

16. Carrots
Carrots get a lot of respect from health food circles, and it’s pretty easy to see why. The beta carotene levels are impressive, and it also ranks highly in Vitamin A. One of the most popular ways to get more carrots is by drinking carrot juice. This is because it can be rather monotonous to chew up a carrot, and it’s hard to chew it up enough to release all of the nutrients. By blending it up and drinking the juice you’re unlocking all of that goodness. Add a carrot to your next smoothie for an anti-inflammatory upgrade.

17. Cauliflower
Cauliflower often gets paired with broccoli, both on the plate and during nutritional comparisons. They’re both cruciferous vegetables and their nutritional profile is quite similar. But the taste and texture is much different if you stop and appreciate each for what it is. Cauliflower contains the elusive Vitamin K, and a heaping dose of Vitamin C, powerful antioxidants that alone make it worth eating. But it’s the anti-inflammatory properties of cauliflower that are perhaps just as impressive, so it deserves a spot on your regular menu.

21. Cucumber
Cucumber is one vegetable that deserves more of the spotlight. It’s an alkaline-forming food, plus it’s ultra-hydrating, contains antioxidants, and has shown to be an anti-inflammatory food. The best part is that you can add it to a salad that is loaded with other anti-inflammatory vegetables and do yourself a huge service. It’s also great blended up in a green smoothie. Cucumbers are often used in the detox process, both eaten and used on the body such as in soaps and shampoos and also to help with puffiness around the eyes. It’s a very handy vegetable!

25. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) is an oil you’ll want to keep by your side in the kitchen due to its particular anti-inflammatory properties. It can easily become your go-to oil for use when cooking certain foods, but also as a great salad dressing, or used to top any dish that is a little dry and needs something to help its texture. It has a light flavor and simply can’t be overlooked because it has anti-inflammatory effects akin to taking certain drugs to treat inflammatory conditions. It actually contains a natural ingredient that is particularly effective at fighting inflammation, so you shouldn’t overlook this important oil.

31. Green Tea (and other teas)
Green tea has plenty of health benefits, including being able to help prevent cancer or even fight it if you have it. The antioxidant value is often trumpeted as the reason why it’s something to add to your daily routine. There are several other herbal teas that are good for an anti-inflammatory diet, and you’ll want to opt for ones that have flavonoids, as this is what gives them their anti-inflammatory benefits. What’s interesting is that many of these herbal teas are easy to prepare, and simply involve adding hot water to an herb or a tea bag full of an herbal mix.

38. Oats
Go for the steel-cut variety of oats, and opt out of the instant oatmeal packs you find on store shelves with added flavors and sugars. You’ll appreciate this anti-inflammatory food because it will give you plenty of energy and keep you full for several hours if prepared correctly and eaten in the right portion. Oats consistently rank as one of the healthier foods you can eat, specifically as a way to keep your heart healthy and maintain a proper weight. A breakfast of oatmeal is one way to stabilize blood sugars, and provide yourself with sustainable energy and no crash.

40. Oranges
Oranges are packed with broad spectrum of phytonutrients and and flavonoids, and this gives them their status as a super-healthy fruit. Of course we all know that they’re full of Vitamin C, and can give you a needed boost of energy when you need it, they’re also anti-inflammatory. Some might have trouble eating fruits that contain citric acid, but if you are not one of them this is something to start eating daily if possible. Oranges are a great fruit that is always available in both conventional and organic options at most grocery stores.

41. Papaya
Papaya is not a top-selling fruit in most parts of the United States, but it is one of the healthiest fruits you can eat, especially if you are trying to follow an anti-inflammatory diet. That’s because there are ingredients in papaya that aren’t found in other fruits that particularly gives it the edge on inflammation. Papaya is often made into a fruit salad, and it tastes great when mixed with other similar fruits. Once you get the knack for how to prepare papaya you’ll be happy you did, since you can enjoy it when it’s in season.

42. Pineapple
Pineapple gets mad props for its anti-inflammatory benefits, and you can enjoy it any way that you can, either by preparing it fresh, or finding it frozen or canned. It does have a large amount of sugar, so those that are watching their blood sugar levels to prevent or manage diabetes should check to see how their bodies handle it and keep portion sizes reasonable. It’s a great fruit to enjoy with other similar fruits like oranges, strawberries, and grapefruit, helping to add some sweet to the sour taste of citrus fruits.

46. Salmon (and other fish)
Salmon is one of the best types of fish to eat if you are trying to help with an inflammatory disease or condition. That’s because it has copious amounts of omega-3s in it, and these have been verified over and over again as having a strong anti-inflammatory effect. The consumption of salmon and other fish that are high in omega-3s like anchovies and sardines can help combat the over-consumption of foods with omega-6 in them. An improper balance of omega-6s to omega-3s can actually lead to inflammation and is what is helped by eating more omega-3 foods.

47. Shiitake Mushrooms
For a long time we’ve known about the benefits of shiitake mushrooms to the immune system, but it’s only been recently recognized as an anti-inflammatory food. Unlike other mushrooms they contain specific substances called polysaccharides that provide the anti-inflammatory benefits you’re seeking. The great part is that you can use these mushrooms in place of ordinary mushrooms in all of your favorite recipes, since they cook up just like them and provide a similar yet distinct taste, so no reason to be shy around them.

48. Shrimp (and other shellfish)
You can enjoy shrimp and oysters as part of an anti-inflammatory diet, as long as you don’t have an allergy of course. Shrimp themselves are rich in astaxanthin, which is what is responsible for their anti-inflammatory properties. Additional shellfish choices include oysters and scallops which have been said to be slightly anti-inflammatory. Just be sure to keep your portion of these meats to a minimum and focus more on filling your plate with vegetables found on this page, as these types of shellfish are known to be high in cholesterol, so get just enough to help meet your protein needs.

49. Spinach
Spinach is something we should all eat more of since it is one of the most nutrient dense vegetables around. It is full of fiber, phytonutrients, and protein, making it an all around good source of nutrition. It is also an anti-inflammatory food that you can have each day if you want as part of a health conscious diet that helps you avoid things like heart disease and even cancer. Spinach is so easy to incorporate into your diet because it’s as simple as buying baby spinach and using that as the foundation for a salad each day. You can also find it frozen, or put fresh spinach into a smoothie to make it green.

52. Tomatoes
Tomatoes are good for you for so many reasons, mainly for the lycopene they contain. They’ve long been suggested as part of a heart-healthy diet for the boost to the cardiovascular system. You can eat them any way you can, either raw or cooked, and you can buy them in several different forms as well, including fresh and canned. They consistently make lists of anti-inflammatory foods, and are one of the more highly-researched items on this page, with verifiable proof that you are helping to calm inflammation by eating them.

56. Zucchini
This is a vegetable that makes it onto plenty of dinner tables each night, and maybe when word gets out that it’s an anti-inflammatory food it will become even more popular. While not as anti-inflammatory as some of the other more powerful vegetables like spinach and cabbage, it’s still a worthwhile addition to your weekly menu plan. Zucchini is so easy to prepare and serve up, and tastes great as well. You probably have your own set of recipes that use Zucchini, and if you’re ever stuck you can always do a quick search and get plenty more. It’s that easy to use, and always comes out wonderful.


Anti-Inflammatory FAQ

Will eating anti-inflammatory foods help with sciatica?
If you have an inflamed sciatic nerve and continue to eat inflammatory foods you will not be helping your condition, but rather making it worse or prolonging it. By changing your diet to include foods that not only are anti-inflammatory but also contain antioxidants and other healthy things your body needs you are giving your body the best bet at healing itself.

Will eating anti-inflammatory foods help with fibromyalgia?
Fibromyalgia is caused by inflammation and sticking with an anti-inflammatory diet over the long term should help to keep symptoms at bay. It’s always best to consult with your doctor to come up with the best treatment plan for your specific condition. However, eating a diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods and that cuts out foods that are known to cause inflammation is a positive and proactive step.

Will eating anti-inflammatory foods help with a toothache?
There is some indication that eating anti-inflammatory foods will help your toothache, namely because they contain many fruits and vegetables and help you to avoid sugar and other foods that may lead to additional tooth pain.

Will eating anti-inflammatory foods help with hemorrhoids?
Hemorrhoids are an inflammatory condition and eating anti-inflammatory foods should help calm them down. Keep in mind though that this is no overnight solution, and if your hemorrhoids are bad enough you might not want to wait up to two weeks to have any relief. In this instance a topical solution mixed with dietary changes should yield the best result.

What are the top anti-inflammatory foods?
Some of the absolute best anti-inflammatory foods you can eat are Wild Salmon, Trout, Turmeric, Garlic, Onions, Cabbage, Kale, Spinach, Flaxseed, and Extra Virgin Olive Oil. These give you the most bang for your buck from an anti-inflammatory standpoint. Of course you don’t need to eat them all at every meal, but choosing one or two to eat every day will be a big help.

Stay healthy! :)

Terjemahan Indonesia: Bersarana Kepada Siapa?


Email:

[--- Hi, Fashi. In case you forget. My name DS from Jakarta.
Finally, I have taken refuge in March.
I and my mother. 

But this month I lost my job :'(

I was already in this place for 12 years. Suddenly it came to an end without any reasonable caused. I am wondering. Is it karma? Or any other things?

Fashi, I need your advice spiritually. perhaps you can help :-)

Extract from Ultimate Enlightenment 至尊的開悟- Sayonara 再会?:

[--- With all of GM Lu's sharings with you, listen to the speech over & over again.
What you finally realised or learned from this speech, determines your level of cultivation!

Remember, in Tantrayana, The Root Guru reigns Supreme!

If you want to attain Buddhahood, YOU & Your Root Guru should be on the SAME wavelength , YES! At ONE!

Don't sprout lies or your mortal's interpretation and hinder yourself!

Remember also that Buddha's language is transmitted from Heart to Heart or Mind to Mind and all in speechless silence! ---]

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

Dear all, 
Many of you took refuge with so & so, or at certain temples or monastery.

Do you really know what you are doing?
Obviously not!

And the writer of the above email is just another!

When you take refuge with your choice of Master or Guru, You start up a relationship in Spiritual study and practice with this chosen one.

If you took refuge with GM Lu, then you start by building a link and shortening the distance between HIM and you.
Cultivation is an Individual thingy that One has to do on One's own!

AND if you need help or need to ask questions, you should direct those to your chosen guru and not anyone else!

As to method of reaching GM Lu, I shared lots in this blog.
It is up to the Individual to put in efforts to learn and not for me to give individual advice or help of any kind.

AND, even if you take refuge with GM Lu, I am only your fellow student, nothing more!

If you want anything, DIY please!

黑毛猩猩 Black-haired Gorilla


Selective summary translation into English by Lotuschef.
Please do your own to better understand GM Lu' statements from your own point of view!
~~~~~~~~~~~

蓮生活佛 > 師尊文集 > 254_至尊的開悟 > 黑毛猩猩

馬來西亞「敬佛堂」主席連花茂盛師兄,告訴我一個奇妙又清晰的夢境。
原來他的女兒罹患了腦瘤。
已達危急。
他連忙寫了一封信,寄美國西雅圖,祈求盧師尊加持。
信寄出之後,得一夢:
首先夢見自己的手,牽了自己的女兒在虛空中飛行。
四周黑黑暗暗的,也不知飛了多久。
終於發現有一光點。
他就朝光點飛。
飛近了之後,才發覺原來是「台灣雷藏寺」,寺前站立了盧師尊。
蓮花茂盛帶著女兒,隨著盧師尊先進入大殿中禮佛。
禮完佛後。
發現盧師尊從女兒身上抓出一隻「黑毛猩猩」。
盧師尊抓了「黑毛猩猩」的手,從長長的走廊消失了。
夢至此,便醒來了。
<< The above detailed a dream a fellow student had of his experience in a dream whereby GM Lu drew out a Black-haired gorilla from his daughter's body and walked away. The daughter suffers from a brain tumour and her life is in danger.>>


原來夢示是這樣子的:This dream tells:
這黑毛猩猩是女兒前世的冤親債主,化為瘤,來取連花茂盛女兒的生命。
經由盧師尊加持後,把黑毛猩猩帶走了。
This black-haired gorilla is the daughter's karmic creditor from previous lifetime, and came to exact her life. After blessing from GM Lu, and took away the gorilla.
因此:「女兒的腦瘤就痊癒了。」
Thus: [Daughter's brain tumour recovered fully.]

蓮花茂盛師兄,非常感謝盧師尊的救度,這是非常不可思議的感應。

又,周遭聽到的女士說: also, a lady who listened in said:
「我也是一樣,盧師尊從我身上,抓出二條蛇,我的病就減輕了。盧師尊說還有兩條,那我怎麼辦?」
I am the same, GM Lu caught 2 snakes from my body and my illness lightened. GM Lu said that still have 2 more, what to do?

我答:「唸《真佛經》,自己抓!」
I replied: Recite <True Buddha Sutra>, catch them yourself!


我要告訴大家的是:I want to tell you all that:

無限的祕密力,來自於無限的慈心,無限的悲願,無限的熱誠,無限的親切,無限的佛性,無限的大空。
Infinite secret strength/power, comes from infinite kind heart, infinite compassionate vows, infinite sincere warmth, infinite close concern/care, infinite Buddha nature, infinite great space.

這樣才是。
慈無量。
悲無量。
喜無量。
捨無量。
This is then the Four Immeasurables.

我告訴大家:
在人間,我只有愛而沒有恨!
因為我沒有敵人,我沒有必要去鬥爭,去用心計去陷害他人。
我領悟:
與我有緣的人,都是前世的父親,前世的母親,前世的眷屬,前世的貴人,前世的親友,前世的弟子,前世的冤親債主……。
我是來報恩的!
我是來解冤結的!
我是來酬業的!
這一切都是一時幻化,都是隱形的,並非真實的存在。

我知道
我是如來,好像有來!
我是如去,好像有去!
我是不存在的!
我的心是不存在的!

不知大家明不明白我所說的真諦?
Wonder whether all understand the Truth I said?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hahaha! 
What caught my eyes when I read this article?

[無限的祕密力,來自於無限的慈心,無限的悲願,無限的熱誠,無限的親切,無限的佛性,無限的大空。
Infinite secret strength/power, comes from infinite kind heart, infinite compassionate vows, infinite sincere warmth, infinite close concern/care, infinite Buddha nature, infinite great space.

這樣才是。
慈無量。
悲無量。
喜無量。
捨無量。
This is then the Four Immeasurables.]

I have shared countless times about [Power] and that it Varies as per your Boddhicitta!

AND, most think I am talking nonsense or bluffing too. :)

Well? 
Now from GM Lu personally, isn't it time to really discern and know the Truth?
Isn't it time to really cultivate with the Right Set of Buddha Dharma to at least succour yourself?

Hahaha!

我終於被販賣了 I Finally Became Sold!


Selective summary translation into English by Lotuschef.
Please do your own to better understand GM Lu' statements from your own point of view! 
~~~~~~~~~~~

蓮生活佛 > 師尊文集 > 254_至尊的開悟 > 我終於被販賣了

最近幾年,我有一個感覺,我終於被販賣了。
有人製作「盧勝彥」三個字的印章,數百千個印章賣給很多人。
我實在不明白?
買我的印章做什麼用?
「盧勝彥」這三個字,能驅鬼鎮邪?能招財進寶?能榮華富貴?能……。
我丈二金剛摸不著頭腦,莫名其妙!
請大家幫我想想:
賣我的印章作什麼?
買我的印章作什麼?
護身嗎?
** It seems that someone made stamps of [Lu Sheng Yan], lots of them to sell.
GM Lu just can't understand why they do so!
And also why people buy these stamps too.
Question: can the 3 words [Lu Sheng Yan] ward off ghosts and evil? 
Can bring in wealth and treasures?
Can bring in fame & fortune? .....
Just can't figure why, real ridiculous!
Can all please help to think:
Sell my stamp for what?
Buy my stamp for what?
Self Protection?


●日 Day
有一個人,不是很熟悉的一個人。
據說他學會了我的簽名式,「勝彥」兩個字的簽名(中文)。
There's someone I not too familiar with.
As per some saying, he learned my signature's style, [Sheng Yan] 2 characters in signature (In Chinese).

於是:
他販賣我簽了名的龍袍。
他販賣我簽了名的佛像。
他販賣我簽了名的法器。
他販賣我簽了名的唐卡。
他販賣我簽了名的手諭。
Thus, 
He sells dragon robes, buddha's statues, dharma instruments, thangkas, edicts, with my signatures.

天啊!Heavens!

他居然有我的傳承信物?傳什麼承?
He even has my lineage transmission gifts?  What transmission and what lineage?

也有我的手諭?Also have my edict?

這種欺瞞眾生的手法,為了名利,這不是詐欺嗎?
These bluffing or cheating sentient beings' methods, for fame and benefits, isn't this Cheating?

連戒衣、禪衣都是我贈予他的。
Even Precept sash, zen clothing, all my gift to him.

我的媽啊!My mom!
我的祖母,阿嬤尾!(台語)
My grandma!
我的天!My heavens!
我被賣光光了!I am sold till naked!

真佛宗有真佛宗的紙金。
TBS has TBS' paper gold (Incense paper).
很多人為了販賣紙金賺錢,紛紛請我簽名。
To sell these paper gold to make money, many came to request my signature.

紙金有很多款式,大部份是各分堂自己去設計的。
There are many variants of these paper gold, mostly designed by individual chapters.

真佛宗到底有多少紙金款式,我真的不知道?
TBS actually has how many variants of these paper gold, I really don't know?

但,大部份有我的簽名。
BUT, most have my signature.

為了公平起見。
來者不拒。
For fairness, I don't refuse anyone that approach me for signatures.
也有些分堂,靠販賣紙金起家。
Some chapters relied on selling these paper gold to raise their establishments.

但也有假冒的紙金。
But, paper gold also have fakes.

太紛亂了!Too messy!

有的紙金也印上了我的法照,一起燒給天、地、鬼、神。
Some paper gold have my Dharma picture printed on them, and burnt together to give to Heaven, earth, ghost, deities.

我被賣的太澈底了。
I am being sold very thoroughly.


另有一位,我完全不識的人。
Another one, that I completely do not know.

他賣我「大圓滿」灌頂。
He sells my [Maha perfection] abhiseka.

由他收錢。He collects money.
我遙灌。I give distant-abhiseka.

老天爺!Old heavens!
「大圓滿灌頂」豈有遙灌的,那是無上的大法,最高的法。
[Maha Perfection Abhiseka] how can by distant-abhiseka, that is how topmost, how high a dharma.

能受灌的,萬人不得其一。
Can accept this abhiseka, not even one in ten thousands.

沒有那麼隨便的。
Not so anyhow or easy.

敬請大家勿被騙才好!
Everyone, please do not be so easy to be cheated!


我要告訴大家的是:I want to tell all is that:
我只是一位弘法的人,我在履行我的願力,我只是弘揚佛法,下化眾生,就是這麼簡單。
I am a dharma propagator, I am executing my vows, I am only propagating Buddha Dharma, succouring sentient beings, its just so simple.

我當然知道:
Of course I know that:
這是人間,很複雜。
This Human realm is very complicated.

你依怙了蓮生活佛盧勝彥去修行,這就是走在正道上。
You take refuge & rely on Living Buddha Lian Sheng, Lu Sheng Yan, to cultivate, this is walking on the True Path.

若依我的名去營利,那就是歪道!
If you take refuge & rely on my name to make profits, that is crooked/wrong path!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hahaha!
GM Lu is always or constantly being marketed and sold worldwide to susceptible sentient beings!

Especially those in dire straits and think that they need a "Quick fix" badly!
The credibility issue also doesn't seem to pop-up or be figured in when you buy into these fakes!

MY point is? :)

I asked this same old question of many already!

THINK: Who are you when you achieved Yoga with Root Guru?

Ah! 
Then do you still need to have any material items or cling to any sentient forms, with alleged Blessing or signature from GM Lu?

Time to Truly Wake Up?

If not, do continue to sleep some more!

No further comments! 

Hahaha!
