自空 - Void Self 他空 - Void Others

Terjemahan Bahasa: 自空 – Mengosongkan Diri, 他空 – Mengosongkan Yang Lain

Quoting from Lotuschef at Play – Enlightenment & Sentient Possession:

[--- Body Speech Mind are your representation and they tell "your story" very clearly and precisely too. :)
Enlightenment? Still far away, as this reverend got entangled again by Sentient Mud.

The Announced Enlightened Ones?
Well, see for yourself!

I had a real close-up glance at our Thubten Ksiti Rinpoche.
Hahaha!
You can also add him to your list of who to compare those you think are Enlightened and Authority of Buddha Dharma with, and of course SZ is the First on this list!

The shining warmth like the Sun that brings you warmth, security, comfort, brightness and joy!
That's what you should feel, and use as a gauge when you are still learning, and help you from dropping into traps of greedy and unscrupulous beings

...........
Dear all, having too doubtful a mindset is detrimental to your cultivation.
Just as thinking too much and thinking you are being intelligent!

Wisdom is truly a different kettle of fish and what more Universal wisdom of all Buddhas!
Cultivation as per SZ starts with your cleansing yourself of unwholesome thoughts and behaviour/habits! [31-1-2014]

自空 - Void Self
他空 - Void Others

These are keys to revealing your own Buddha nature!

I humbly suggest that you listen FIRST and DIGEST before you butt into any conversation!
Being too hasty to add your take, you revealed how Unstable and Hasty you are, not giving yourself Time to Absorb and Analyse.

............

I noticed many writing down SZ's speech, word for word, then they chat with someone, then they missed some parts of SZ's speech,, then they get frustrated and agitated and eventually they felt real unhappy because they think they lost their chances to learn from SZ.

In all this process, this person is too busy with OWN AGENDA to truly pay full attention to SZ.
They got trapped by themselves and the Chain of Thoughts & Reactions they churned on their own.
I remember advising all to Listen Attentively first and if you missed or think you missed out any part, you can always wait for the written transcribe or watch the recorded video.
No loss at all!

Know that when you are busily writing, YOUR MIND is Occupied and you can't absorb the True Essences that SZ wants to share with you! ---]

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

In a recent encounter with someone that is possessed by ancient pagan spirit, of a certain native tribe, I told him that he can draw "energy" when I give him Moding, when he achieved 我空 Self Void!

Hahaha!

If you have been diligently listening to GM Lu all these years, you will realised that when you achieved Self Void, you DO NOT NEED energy from others at all!

BUT, in turn able to or know how to draw energy to give to anyone or everyone! 

Hahaha!

Don't have = Have!

When you can Void Self successfully, you will understand what GM Lu meant by this one!

People doing translation of GM Lu's speeches into various languages?

If the person has achieved Guru Yoga, then AND ONLY then, the translation has Truth & substance!

Bear steadfastly in your mind what GM Lu said about a True Master:
1. One that do not ask you for large sums of money.
2. One that do not keep busy constantly garnering "territories".
3. One that has not lost Lineage Transmission.

Craving endlessly for Sentient possessions hinder you only!

Hehe! I think its hard to find a master that do not demand large sums of money for their services or even an audience with them!
Garnering Territories?
Most master wants to build their own temples and also have other temples under their "Charge & Control"!
And Reverend Lian-xuan even jeered at me when I was in training in Seattle Temple that since I am so filthy rich, go build temple & GM Lu will make me a VM!

Dear all, a title does not make you a true yogi automatically!
Wake up!

Most of you fell prey to people like XX because you were blinded by the Title and the Dress-ups!

死而无憾 To Die Without Regrets?

Terjemahan Indonesia: Mati Tanpa Penyesalan?

Quotation 1:

The Great Protection of Vajrayana

by Living Buddha Sheng-yen Lu

21-7-2011 TERMINAL ILLNESS

I wish to thank grandmaster for his empowerment, may everything be perfect! Thank you once again!

This letter proved that:

1. Empowerment can reduce the size of a malignant tumor.
2. Medicine was given by the grandmaster in the dream.
3. Although it was a dream, vivid details can be recalled.
4. Everything was perfect and auspicious as indicated.

I take special care for disciples who are suffering from sickness. During consultation, preference is given to those who are suffering from illness. Why? Because I believe the most unbearable thing in life is the suffering from sickness.

Those who are sick, if they always think of me, the grandmaster whom they took refuge in, if they always recite my name, or chant my heart mantra “Om Guru Lian Sheng Siddhi Hum”. I shall appear in front of them, giving them medicine, empowering them, so that they will be safe and sound. They will be healthy and free from sickness.

I am a Tantric cultivator who was told by Sakyamuni Buddha to come to this samsara world to carry out salvation mission.

It was mentioned in four-division Vinaya: Buddha said: “From now on, you must take good care of the sick. If you wish to make an offering to me, it is better to offer it to the sick”.

Brahmajala Sutra had the following to say: “As a Buddhist, we must treat sick people as if they are Buddhas. Taking care of the sick qualifies as the first merit in the eight types of merit cultivation. A Buddhist must take good care and attend to those who are sick including their parents, teachers, monks, disciples and other handicapped people who are suffering from all kinds of problem’.

Quotation 2:

SPIRITUAL HEALING BY LIVING BUDDHA LIAN-SHENG

Translated by Jason Yam (Page 72 – 73)

21-7-2011 SPIRITUAL HEALING

You are known as Living Buddha, how do you heal your patients without medication?
Curing a sickness is an expedient way as far as Buddhism is concerned.
It is not the most important aspect of the teachings.
To cure the sick is to develop his confidence after his recovery, so he will take up the faith in Buddhism.
Such healing method is formless.
It is a totally spiritual way of healing.

The healing can be seen in three respects:
the confidence of the patient, my role as the solicitor who, with utmost sincerity, invites the universal energy to descent and radiate, in order to heal the patient.

In this universe, there are many ‘energies’.
When these energies are being applied on the patients, their sickness will be cured.
To say such thing in the twentieth century sounds unbelievable.
But this is a truth, the miracle occurs in a blink.
It is effective without long term and frequent consultations, and the patients are not restricted to only my own disciples.

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

Hahaha! 

What has the above to do with "To Die without Regret"?

If you have been listening attentively to GM Lu all these years;
understanding & remembering what he shared;
using what you comprehended to cultivate and benefit all beings;

Then have you picked up Facts about Dying?
Like Facts about the Bardo Body and the stages it goes through.

Now!
Do you remember an event in Caotun Temple that GM Lu said some spirits refused to board the Dharma Boat to go to Pureland?

AH! This is the Point that I wish to share now!

In sight of Pureland, but refused to board?

These group are not those with heavy karmic negatives that prevent them from leaving with GM Lu's help!

They are those that have "Unfinished Business" that kept them back from leaving for transmigration or delivery to Pureland!

Sometime in December 2008, I talked to this fellow student about him forcing his ancestors to take refuge.
WHY?
He has taken refuge with GM Lu for more than 10 years, so why force his ancestors to take refuge now?
He heard that by doing so, his path will be smoother by showing filial piety!
O! He is the one with about 5 different spirits within.

AND, at least one out of the 5 spirits was killed by him!

His problem is not caused by his ancestors but his own sins from this and past lifetimes!

What he needs most is to help his karmic negatives of this and past lifetimes take refuge and cultivate diligently to apologise and make good his wrongdoings!

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

Another one that I talked to was a relative who refuse to let go of his late grandmother and continue to draw her "attention" daily, by talking to her or "praying" to her.
He is grandmother's favorite!
His late grandmother's spirit as well as his late mother's, all still hovering around him, reluctant to leave him!

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

GM Lu also shared that there are some still very very attached to their worldly possessions like wives, houses, money, fame, status, .... etc.

These are also major factors that hold back deliverance to Pureland or Transmigration as per Karmic Influences!

So, how to die without regrets?

Let Go!

Lotuschef on Energy Levels of Individuals

Terjemahan Indonesia: Tingkat Energi Tiap-tiap Individu

What am I talking about now? :)

Cultivation is in everything we do, as per SZ.

Buddha Dharma is a multitude of methods to do everything "WELL".

Means for the benefit of all and also to share happiness and the routes to maintaining happiness with all.

When you are Happy, you are physically Healthy too, agree?

Wisdom of Discernment is the main ingredient here.

First start looking at yourself and your thoughts or mindsets and the resultant actions you execute.
Then look at yourself in the mirror, and start by observing others too.

If you don't like something that others do to you or other people, record these feelings & the facial expressions of those that annoyed or "spooked" you & others.

Hahaha! You are slowly building a "database" for future reference!


Recently, I came across several interesting individuals.

1. AA, a fellow student. tried to lead me to commit to having a look at his business premises. Started to tell me that he needs to clear stocks. I said ask help from Earth Deities but help Earth Deities take refuge in SZ first.

AA said already done that and some VMs also advised him what to do already.

:) Think: If VMs already advised him what to do, then why ask me?

Remember that SZ said that NOT One Student ask him to teach them Geomancy but many went round claiming they are Proficient in this field.
When SZ asked them, these Pro claimed that their ancestors passed on these skills!!!

SZ also said most of the VMs sitting beside him, have yet to Yoga with him, as without Guru Yoga, they are all bluff and also what they claim they can do as well! :)


2. BB has a great body odor that pungently spreads rapidly upon his arrival.
He has an unstable gait and keeps changing support of himself by alternating his right then his left limb when standing.
Aura - canine, dog or wolf.


3. CC has very scattered aura. Karmic foes seemed to have bitten into his facial features for quite some time.
CC does Spiritual Reading and Healing for others.
Sad that he is unable to really be effective as his energy level is low and can't "work-up" or churn up "Good energy" to read and therefore can't heal at all.
However, CC still believes that he can do Spiritual Reading & Healing.
This only makes things worse for him, as he is indirectly Lying to others about his visions and corresponding actions to solve others' problems.This creates Karmic negatives for him only.


4. DD meditates regularly and is bright and shining. Brings forth a Joy when you meet her.


5. EE has a welcoming warmth when you meet her. She is authoritative too, but no aggression felt from this.
A constant smile too on her.


A Good Aura that shines = Happy & Healthy. :)

SZ already gave us the most important clue or key - Qi management and cultivation!


Your solution to better Energy Level is cultivate as taught by SZ and also go learn Qi-gong from some accredited gurus.


If you are truly committed to help yourself, you can also come join Pure Karma events.
We start each session with about half an hour of Qi-gong exercises. :)


Cheers all.

Lotuschef on Having Life's Essence Stolen?

Terjemahan Indonesia: Intisari Kehidupanmu Dicuri?

Remember this wall and garden?
There are plenty of Spirits within.
How many can you find?

One morning, while having breakfast with some fellow students, TK, a friend of one fellow student walked up to our table.
A glance at him, "Interest" me so much that I had a more indepth look at him.

He is greenish black and opaque!
There is something in his eyes and also something showing from his forehead. :)

Things get crazier?

We were invited to help out at a function, so I get more glances at him throughout the morning till early afternoon.
[I did share more light energy with him whenever I glance at him, but I didn't approach him. He might be shocked by what I will reveal.]I am glad to see the darkness sort of dispersed when he had about 30 minutes under the hot sun!

Dear all, if you are one of those that sleep for long periods and wake up still tired, you should go into the Sun more often to help you clear some "Ying" energy.

If you have the tiredness even after long hours of sleep, and things are also going hay-wire in your daily life, seek help. 
You have too much "Yang" energy drawn or stolen from you when you are asleep and for a prolong period too.

He is young and with family too!
I hope TK's situation won't worsen though.

O! Believe or Not, Really Up To You! :)


Cheers all.

The Hungry Ghost Phenomenon 饿鬼的迹象 [2]

Terjemahan Indonesia: Fenomena Hantu Lapar [2]
Image: Hungry Ghost © Withstand

This is Pure Karma's Altar.

Sleek, simple, bright, inviting,..... :)

We shouldn't complicate our altars and likewise our Life.

Comment from The Hungry Ghost Phenomenon 饿鬼的迹象 [1]:

Amitofo Lotus Chef, As a disciple of Grand Master Living Buddha Lien Sheng and a regular at the Sunday fire homas, I know EXACTLY what you mean!!! 

To see the various disciples and monks rushing forward to grab the blessed offerings in such a fashion is shocking, disturbing and produces such a different vibration than the holy vibration we all had the wonderful chance to take part in thanks to Grand Master.  

The vibrations of greed are definitely present as with so many attached entities and karmic creditors that have not been released.

As I work my way through this crowd to get my turn at the fire homa, I must deeply chant the White Padmakumara long mantra to deal with this heavy oppressive energy.

I have seen all the acts you mentioned and know they happen regularly after the ceremonies.

But I know the law of karma and you cant escape, we all pay in the end. 

Thanks for mentioning this in your blog, I hope disciples can reflect and take a look at themselves honestly and change their ways. 

---

Well, these happened all over the world, after events! 

A local chapter's volunteers snatch at offerings from the Blessing Altar and not the Bardo one! 

They believe that the Bardo one is Tainted by ghosts or spirits!

SZ said: Om Ah Hom! Cleanse all! Everything is the same.

Seems SZ's words mostly fall on deaf ears! Hahaha! 

There was an incident that was very crazy too! 

The chapter's volunteers made a huge fuzz with Lotus Light Charity for carting away the offerings of an event before they have a chance to pick and choose for themselves.

They demanded that the Offerings be returned to the chapter and the remains after their "picking" will be donate to Lotus Light! 

So the chapter's volunteers are needies too? 

They badly need charity? 

Actually there are Hot/Cold water dispensers in the Homa Hall. You only need to bring a container to collect water. As long as they are there during the Homa, they already got plenty of blessing from SZ Astrally if they but stay cool and they can feel SZ's blessing from their crowns, slowly spreading downwards to fill their whole body.

All they need to stay tune to SZ's teachings and RELAX! 

O! They must also have Absolute Believe in SZ! 

Cheers all.
