相由心生 Fate Grows from Heart




Above: Part of the master tray of offering for Homa.

Referring to GM Lu's recorded speech:
20191228聖尊蓮生活佛盧勝彥開講「道果」

In the above speech, GM Lu said that One's fate grows from One's heart and the accumulative effect of One's karmic deeds can be seen from One's face!
He said there are old people that have been nasty and mean for the most part of their lives, and all these can be seen clearly imprinted on their faces!

Well, reminds me another interesting face I saw recently during my cruise vacation.
This person has a real spooky aura that gives one the creeps!
What pops up in mind was Hitler!
I told my daughter to avoid this person or steer clear of his path!

I remember faces that I saw from Facebook of various individuals and advised them to cultivate.
2 of them chanted 108 times of 100-syllables mantra daily and one of them the facial changes and pretty similar to GM Lu's statue on his altar, the other one has shine and has mark improvement in career.

Remember that GM Lu said that Vajrasatta's Repentance is the greatest of all repentances!

自主生死?Determine One's Own Destiny?


Terjemahan Bahasa: Mengendalikan Takdirmu Sendiri?


Referring to the recorded sermon:
2017年10月29日聖尊蓮生活佛盧勝彥開講「道果」-彩虹雷藏寺

In the above session, GM Lu talks about many that came forward for Purification after being victims of XX!
Also the VM that is still mentally unstable now, and he has been so for more than 20 years.

So all these years, no one caught wind of what XX is doing to fellow students and public too, who seek her services!

One of Buddha's basic key is to cultivate and be able to Determine One's own destiny!

So many VMs and their families fell victims to XX and even the little living buddha, Ksiti Rinpoche!

It is also obvious that all these years, management of TBS affairs by a group of VMs under an Administrative Team, is just not effective at all!
Even those in Admin fell prey to XX's practices!

And it can be said that if GM Lu continues to keep quiet about XX, more will get harm.

VMs can't even execute purification to clean themselves?
Thats why no one approach any of them for purification?

As per GM Lu, many continues to come forward for purification from all over the world!

XX placed Ghosts-tablets or plaques on altars all over the world and visiting masters all not aware of them.
Proved that all these supposed to be Dharma teachers, Vajra-masters, are Fakes!
Most VMs are preaching, I can and you can't, so pay me to do it for you! 

GM Lu has taught Purification Practices for decades and yet the massive damages done by XX seems endless.

GM Lu said that Marici boddhisattva has vowed to clear all the ghosts away soon. 

I think this probably will have the same outcome as the 31 Dec 2016 session, with Mahabala as the yidam. 
XX re-invoked the ghosts or revived them!

And in this same session, GM Lu asked why some still following XX after the revelation of XX's worship of ghosts and the harm they caused.
So, can Marici completely clear away all ghosts kept by XX?

If TBS admin had made sure of a high standard of Dharma Cultivation, those like XX can't even get a foot in!

Ah! But the final fault lies with each individual who chose to believe the XXs of this world!

Learn Buddha dharma well before you start to cultivate.
Else you will be in grave danger of harming self.
Armour & Boundary Protection?
Can you effectively do this?

命运 Fate – 大長今 Dae Jang Geum


Terjemahan Indonesia: Nasib – Dae Jang Geum


Dae Jang Geum (Hangul: 대장금; hanja: 大長今; RR: Dae Jang-geum; MR: Tae Chang-gǔm; literally "The Great Jang-geum"), also known as Jewel in the Palace, is a 2003 Korean television series directed by Lee Byung-hoon.

Hahaha!

Lets Have Fun!

In this story, a Taoist priest gave this 3 predictions to Dae Jang Geum's father, saying that his fate is held by 3 women.





Now, that locked in the story-line.

However, using your knowledge of Buddha Dharma, can you help to divert or eliminate this Fate or Destiny of this man, the father of our heroine?

THAT IS:- 
If you meet someone with this fate, how can you help?


Cheers all.

煙供一奇 A Unique Smoke Offering

Terjemahan Indonesia: Sebuah Puja Asap (Dhumapuja) yang Unik
Source: 盧勝彥文集第243冊《荒誕奇談》 Lu Sheng Yan Literary Collection No. 243 [Incredible/Ridiculous Unusual Tales], T322 煙供一奇



一位弟子,「蓮花森一」告訴我:
A student, Lotus Shen-yi, told me:

他受了「煙供」灌頂,學習了「煙供」的口訣及方法,便在自家的陽台燒煙供。
He received Abhiseka for Smoke Offering, learned the keys & method, then did burn Smoke Offering at the balcony of his residence.

那一天,他想起自己的母親,由於母親已逝世多年,也從來未在夢中看見她,他特別召請母親也來受煙供。
That day, he thought of his mother, she passed away many years but didn't see her in dream at all, so he specially invited his late mother to accept Smoke Offering.

他點火。
He lighted fire.

煙裊裊升起。
Smoke curls upwards.

(蓮花森一口中喃喃的誦:嗡。嘛呢叭咪。吽。)
Lotus Shen-yi chants: Om Mani Pad Me Hom

那煙奇怪。
The smoke is unusual.

煙一直往自己的臉上吹拂,而且久聚不散。
Smoke kept blowing into his own face, and gathered but didn't disperse.

他突然靈機一動,說:
He suddenly has this bright spark, said:

「如果是母親來受煙供,請繞著自己的脖子三圈。」
If is is mother who comes to accept smoke offering, please circle my neck 3 times.

那煙卻真的裊裊的,以優美的姿態,繞了脖子三圈。」
The smoke truly curled upwards in a graceful pattern, circling his neck 3 times.

哇!真的是母親來了!
Wow! Truly is mother's presence!

他問:
He asked: 

「母親,你現在的境界如何?如果是上升,煙往上沖,如果是下降,煙往下吹。」
Mother, which realm are you presently in? If upwards, smoke rises up; if downwards, smoke blown downwards.

說也奇怪:
Its is unusual to say:

煙往上沖。
Smoke rises upwards.

哇!是上到天上界了!
Wow! Is up to Heavenly Realm!

他又問:
He asked again:

「母親,我現在做股票,我現在該買還是該賣?」
Mother, I am into Stock Brokering, should I buy or sell now?

(買是上沖,賣是下降)
Buy then upwards, sell then downwards.

那煙,漸漸的蜿繞而下降至足,而且在足上停留。
That smoke, gradually meanders downwards to the foot, at the same time staying on the foot.

哇!真的很準喔!隔一天,股票就連降好多天。
Wow! Very Accurate! The next day, Stocks plummeted for a few days.

他問:
He asked: 

「小弟成績如何?」
How is younger brother's results?

那煙不高不低,呈現平平的姿態。
That smoke not high nor low, showing average pattern.

哇!真準!
Wow! Very accurate!

小弟的成績平平而已。
Younger brother's results is average.

他問:
He asked: 

「我的婚姻將來如何?」
How is the future of my marriage?

(因為蓮花森一,與自己的妻子感情不是很和睦)
Because Lotus Shen-yi's marital relationship is not very harmonious.

想不到那煙表現得更奇,竟然橫的一條,最後,從中間裂為兩半。
Unthinkably, smoke uniquely present, a horizontal stroke and then from middle break into 2 halves.

哇!證之後來,果然離婚了!
Wow! Affirmed later, truly went through divorce.

他問:
He asked: 

「盧師尊是不是大成就者?」
Is Grandmaster Lu a great achiever? (Means Cultivation Attainment)

最怪的事情發生了,那升上來的煙,竟然自動的形成一個字:
The most unusual happened, that smoke rises up and formed a character:

「大」!
Big!

他又問:
He asked again:

「盧師尊是大成就者,但,災難是如此的多,為什麼是這樣?」
Grandmaster Lu is a great achiever, but, lots of calamities, why is this so?

想不到,煙跑去繞著鐵欄桿。
Unbelievably, the smoke went around a metal rail.

蓮花森一想:
Lotus Shen-yi thought:

一定是障礙!如果是障礙,那也是滿準的。
Must be Hindrance! If is Hindrance, then pretty accurate.

……。

蓮花森一燒「煙供」,結果用「煙供」自然能問事,這也是一奇。
Lotus Shen-yi burn Smoke Offering, resulted in using Smoke offering to naturally [wen-shi] - (means consultation); this is Unusual or Unique.

我說:
I say:

「煙供」能問事,這純屬一件特別的例子,不一定人人能。
Smoke Offering can do consultation, this is purely an Unique example, not everyone can do so.

股票有漲有跌,我個人不喜問股票。
Stocks rise and fall, I personally do not like to ask about Stocks.

問修行,我倒是比較喜歡。
I prefer to be asked about Cultivation.

鬼神能問事嗎?
Ghost & Deity can do consultation?

我告訴大家:鬼神一切知。
Let me tell you all: Ghost & Deity know all.

---

Dear all, 
If you are doing Smoke Offering for a purpose, and that is for Self, like the above student, sad to said that you are truly lacking in knowledge of True Purpose of Cultivation.

Well?
You are too sentiently entangled and will waste away your limited Life span this visit without Freeing Self from Samsara and what more helping others to break free too! 

Hahaha!

Read GM's comments?

Yes! 
If you read deeply, you would have picked up GM's true sentiments on what occurred to this student!

Do you know that Cultivation can really help you change your Destiny?

Yes! 
The Divorce can be prevented, once he has prior knowledge!

However, like most beings, listening to predictions, they somehow helped these predictions along to fruitfulness! 

Hahaha!

So a wise & diligent cultivator will really not be affected by any predictions like GM taught in this article: 做你自己吧!Be Yourself!

Now Think:
What is Cultivation?
Why do I choose to Cultivate?
How do I go about Cultivating well?


Cheers all.

This message I gave to the brothers that I met on the 1st Feb 2014. 

Also read: Lotuschef on Interesting Encounters 巧遇


This deed can be as simple as helping an aged cross the road or putting a smile on an unsmiling face, what if only for a second!

Making others happy, means sharing goodness.

Fellow student present at this session thanked me for sharing how to use Buddha Dharma for the benefit of Self as well as others

However, don't forget SZ said: with Sincerity and don't expect rewards!


日行一善! To Perform A charitable deed a day! - this actually can be found in the
4 Lessons of Liao Fan

Quoting from [Wikipedia – Liao-Fan’s Four Lessons]:

Liao-Fan Yuan was born during the Ming Dynasty, in about 1550, in Jiangsu Province, Wujiang County. Liao-Fan wrote a book, Liao-Fan's Four Lessons (了凡四訓), which was written originally to teach his son, Tian-Chi Yuan.

The principal idea behind these lessons is that destiny can be changed through proper cultivation of kindness and humility. Thus one should not be bound by fate, but by one's own actions.

Liao-Fan was told by a taoist monk, Mr. Kong, that he would only live to the age of fifty-three and have no son. At first, he disregarded this monk's words as farcical nonsense, but as Mr. Kong's other predictions began to occur with great accuracy, he then proactively made an effort to rewrite his fate. In relating his own life experience in changing destiny, 
Liao-Fan, at the age of sixty-nine, wrote and taught these four lessons to his son.

The first lesson shows how to create destiny. 
The second lesson explains the ways to reform. 
The third reveals the ways to cultivate kindness and 
the fourth discloses the benefits of the virtue of humility.

This book, still in circulation after more than 500 years, is said to be a useful foundation in learning Buddhism.


Also read: 了凡四训.

四篇主题

了凡四训全册划分为四篇,包括以下:

第一篇 立命之学 - 说明人的命运是可靠自己创造,而不是被命数所束缚。

第二篇 改过之法 - 从小的过失起改过,那自然便不会犯下大的过错。

第三篇 积善之方 - 多做善事帮助别人,善事积多了,命运自然也有所改变。

第四篇 谦德之效 - 与人相处,待人要谦虚,从中学习,自然便有进步。


Hahaha! I use Liao Fan's 4 lessons or his personal experiences in changing his own destiny, to help those that think they are doom or to help many to improve their lots in life.

YES! You can map your own destiny and the very BEST way is to Cultivate for Self as well as ALL! 

自主生死 Holding Control over Your Own Life & Death or Destiny!

Crazy Wisdom - Know Your Guru?



Students lined up for "moding" session by SZ. :)

There were video recordings of these 'moding' sessions.

It is fun to look through them!

Big brothers & sisters get kicks out of walking in front of SZ through the kneeling lines of fellow students.

EGO - great great version at work!
Delusion too that these people are lowly and kneeling to them!
Hahaha!

You have to see to believe anyway!

We took pictures of the skyline and posted them to share on blog. The next day, copycats emerged!

Now back to the point.
SZ said Thubten Ksiti can read a person's fate of 3 times at a glance.
Likewise, SZ can also do the same, agree?

Now, the hilarious angle is all these Fakes prancing around SZ daily, and staying close too!
They think that SZ needs to sit down to cultivate then can read them like an open book?
SZ can read everyone whether they are present or not, or near or far from him.

Signals! These come from students in need of help or knowhow.

If you think that SZ don't know what you are doing, think again! :)

O! Little YS that cultivates with me, said SZ sits atop my head!

I humbly suggest you don't approach me with Ill Intent at all.
Next time, I will turn on my "antenna" and transmit your "signals" directly to SZ!
I shared during a fire puja session how to "turn on/off" this antenna! :)

SZ watches your every move.

Remember SZ said if you think he is a Buddha then you get a Buddha's blessing, or when you think he is a sentient being, then you get the sentient being's blessing!

Have time, please go listen more to SZ and not those that are way into Vajra Hell!


Cheers all.

Crazy Wisdom – Amazing One Glance! 神奇的一看!

Terjemahan Indonesia: Kebijaksanaan yang nampak gila – Sekilas Pandang yang Menakjubkan! 神奇的一看!



Quoted from [Tai Chi Chuan and Philosophy] blogspot.

SAMSTAG, 29. SEPTEMBER 2012
Text: What’s wise about the wise man is his stance
From Bertold Brecht

A philosophy professor came to see Mr. K. and told him about his wisdom.

After a while Mr. K. said to him: “You sit uncomfortably, you talk uncomfortably, you think uncomfortably.”

The philosophy professor became angry and said: “I didn’t want to hear anything about myself but about the substance of what I was talking about.”

“It has no substance,” said Mr. K.

“I see you walking clumsily and, as far as I can see, you’re not getting anywhere.

You talk obscurely, and you create no light with your talking.

Seeing your stance, I’m not interested in what you’re getting at.”

Has this got something to do with the Philosophy of Tai Chi Chuan?

Eingestellt von MBum 02:36



The Philosophy of Tai Chi Chuan


The rich philosophical thinking of old China has fascinated the West for centuries. Those who practice Tai Chi Chuan can experience these ideas in a very special way, because the movements mirror basic concepts of Chinese philosophy. After studying this book the reader will have a better understanding of the world of ideas of Tai Chi Chuan. And he/she can approach his/her training with new inspiration.

---

Dear all,
The Bold & Underlined Text is truly very educational.

[“You sit uncomfortably, you talk uncomfortably, you think uncomfortably.”
“I see you walking clumsily and, as far as I can see, you’re not getting anywhere.
You talk obscurely, and you create no light with your talking.
Seeing your stance, I’m not interested in what you’re getting at.”
]

Hahaha! Lets Have FUN!

Question: What can you deduce about Mr K & his Wisdom?
Question: What about the Philosophy Professor?

Now the Essences of Taiqiquan?

Mr K has "SIGHT", agree?
He is observant and came to a "Reading" of the philosophy professor's aura.
"you create no light with your talking" - what does Mr K mean? :)
"as far as I can see, you're not getting anywhere" - Mr K can see ahead?

Now, [After a while] - it took a while for Mr K to read the professor's aura.
Remember Avatamsaka Sutra?
Buddha can read anyone completely with just One Glance!

Shizun said that Thubten Ksiti, the little living Buddha, can read all VM's fate of 3 times with a glance.


The Amazing ONE GLANCE!

Training: Observation; Meditation; Merging and Harmonizing with Nature; ....


As per Shizun: Frequent Meditation will helps in Appearance of Pure Light of the cultivator.

True Wisdom does comes with Wisdom Light!

Mr K pronounced that the professor does not create light when talking - he is saying that the professor is not talking legibly and words he used "uncomfortably; clumsily; obscurely;" .
All these pointed to the professor not being able to present himself comprehensively, agree?

Now compare the above from the philosophy professor to the 2 recent arrows shot for the Enlightenment Quest by 2 fellow students.

Beating about the Bush and confusing Self, but didn't get to the Heart Essences of the Topic!

Hahaha! Wisdom seems to be an elusive thing?

I humbly gift you the Noble 8 fold path to help you. Its all in this blogspot. :)


Cheers all.

Lotuschef on Bazi 八字 [2]

Terjemahan Indonesia: Mengenai Bazi 八字 [2]



[--- Hi Fa-Shi,

I was assigned as the emcee of the geomancy talk organized by my company last Sunday.
As an emcee so I got the chance to talk to the "Master" during the recess.  
Of course out of courtesy he helps some of the managers & leaders to analysis their "bazi". 
Other than that we were having some casual conversation.

I asked him a question about the good and bad bazi, he told me that there are two kinds of people's result won't be as per analysis: 
1) Very good bazi but end up become gangster or doing bad things. 
2) Rich people with very bad bazi that suppose to be poor yet they had done lots of charity and helping lots of people.

At that moment one of the manager said that monks & nuns will the third group that won't affected by the bazi. 
But the Master said not really, because not every of them can cultivate so well. 

He also emphasize 一命二运三风水四积德五读书, bazi only cover 2 out of 5. 
[ means: Firstly Life, 2nd Fate, 3rd Fengshui, 4th Accumulate Merits, 5th Study ]

So people still can complement with the other 3 methods.

Hahahahaha....

I am so glad to be a student of SZ that have chance to learn the precious Buddhism. 

And thank you that you also told me that keep on cultivate and trust Root Guru so we are able to avoid the able 5 sayings.

Om Guru Lian Sheng Siddhi Hom! ---]


[--- PKV: Hahaha!
All in our hands & within our own control!
:) ---]


Dear all, I shared recently with this student and other Pure Karma's regulars about having all in our own hands.

In recent articles, I also shared we start counting from our little finger -- Earth Water Fire Wind Void; the Elements of Nature.

I also mentioned that Marici Boddhisattva is the Mother of the Constellation, remember? :)

With 5 Elements of Nature in your hands and add Control of Constellation too, You can decide your own Destiny and also that of others in need, agree?

So, as per Shizun, Diligent Cultivation is your Key! 

Do you agree with the above student that you are indeed very fortunate to have Shizun as your Root Guru? 

Hahaha!
