唸百字明咒 Chanting 100 Syllables Mantra


Terjemahan Bahasa: Menjapa Mantra 100 Aksara

The Tibetan "HOM" Syllable
The 100-Syllable Dharani Wheel

蓮生活佛著作 > 盧勝彥文集 > 第45册文集_坐禪通明法 > 除業障與四加行

蓮生活佛著作 - 除業障與四加行 Clearing Karma & 4 Preliminaries

........
修者唸百字明咒:「嗡。別炸薩埵沙媽耶。媽奴巴拉耶。別炸薩埵爹奴巴地叉。 遮接咩巴娃。蘇多卡欲咩巴娃。蘇甫卡欲咩巴娃。晏奴拉埵咩巴娃。沙爾娃。司地。 咩不拉也叉。沙爾娃。嘎嘛。蘇渣咩。即彈木。司哩任古魯吽。哈哈。哈哈。訶。邦 嘎印。沙爾娃。打他架打。別炸媽咩門渣。別咭巴娃。嘛哈沙媽耶。薩埵阿。吽呸。 」此咒每修持一回誦二十一遍。

若堅修此法,金剛心菩薩見修持者,護持修持者,灌頂修持者,使修持者一切罪 障魔難疾病全部滌淨去除,罪業已消,全身輕快。
菩薩自頂入心,可得金剛心菩薩與 自己合一,這是即身成佛的不二成就。

The above is an excerpt from GM Lu's Book 45.

Yes!
The 100 syllables mantra of Vajrasattva!
As per GM Lu:
Those that cultivate this 4 Preliminaries Practice or Vajrasattva Repentance Practice ~ Vajrasattva will see these cultivators; protect and support them; give them abhiseka, enable them to be clear of all karmic sins, calamities from Mara, illnesses, as all karmic sins are cleared whole body is light and joyful.
Boddhisattva enters heart from top, can achieve merging of Vajrasattva with self, this is then Attained Buddhahood Instantly with Human body, a non-dualistic attainment.

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

Hahaha!

Recently, lots of fellow students told me that they all participating in "Emperor Liang's Precious Repentance" event hosted by a certain chapter.

I told them that GM Lu said that the Best Repentance Practice is simply the Vajrasattva's Repentance!

I shared lots of articles from GM Lu on this.

However, many still chose to believe others and not their very own Root Guru!

Question:
What have you managed to learn from these "others" that helps you advance in "Phala"?

Why waste time attending events that last for days, when you can easily practice at home?

Time management is yet another that all sincere cultivators should know and focus on One's Root Guru's Key pointers!

Hahaha!

You can work daily on Purifying yourself with just the Vajrasattva Repentance Practice!

Remember: Dharma Cultivation is not for Privileged Few, But everyone can achieve success too. Of course, Sincere Diligence is the KEY!

孤影的對話(序)Conversation of the Lonely Shadow - Introduction





蓮生活佛 > 師尊文集 > 203_孤影的對話 Conversation of the Lonely Shadow > 孤影的對話(序)

Selective Translation by Lotuschef


孤影的對話(序)


我的第二○三冊書名,我取書名「孤影的對話」,副題是「重讀五燈會元之六」。
(The sub-topic for this book is re-read "5 Lamps Zen Compilation Part 6".)

書名何以稱「孤影」?
Why book title of Lonely Shadow?

我說:「我總覺得,一個已經觀破一切的明眼人,其內心已寂寂。」
I said: I always feel that when One who is observant and has seen through all, his heart is already lonely and quiet.

我說:「我形單影隻,不落諸緣,這不是孤影是什麼?」
I said: I am single form and solo shadow, do not fall into any affinity, if this isn't lonely shadow, then what is it?

書名為何是「對話」?
Why Book title "Conversation"?

我說:「真理的顯露,有問有答,這一問一答之間,就是對話。」
I said: Truth surfaces, have question have answer, this question and answer is conversation.

有人問我:「如何是本來人?」
Someone asked me: How is Original people?

我答:「如月在水。」
I answered: Like Moon in water.

我這回答,可是「驚天動地」的,不知大家明白否?
My answer is Earth shakingly shocking, wonder all of you understand or not?

如果再問:「可否說明更清楚些?」
If ask again: Can explain more clearly?

我答:「本來人什麼處去來?」
I answered: Original people from where go and come?

如果是一位開悟者,一聽我這一問一答的對話,早已明白盧師尊的非同小可,大家可否參上一參。

我的這本書,我想一定是很驚爆的,鬼哭神號的,天崩地裂的,人心沸騰的,諸聖動容的……。

如果你不信!

那就買來一讀如何?

我在書前,先寫一首現代詩,我提詩名即是:

「我心寂寂」

我現在的心什麼也不想

食

衣

住

行

一天又一天都是一樣一樣


西雅圖的冬季

不是下雪就是下霜

看來

看去

早已沒有什麼叫感傷


我的喇嘛裝就是我的衣裳

參差著穿

打一趟四十二式的太極拳

風來就飛揚


我寫的書就是我的光

一問

一答

看起來滿像一回事般的自然

其實說穿了

是

結夢在空床

Taking Meat or Vegetarian Meals





The Aura of Wisdom 
By Living Buddha Sheng-yen Lu
Translated by True Buddha Foundation Translation Team
This was translated from Grandmaster Lu's 154th book, 智慧的光環.

CHAPTER 31 - Taking Meat or Vegetarian Meals
Someone once asked the Dalai Lama, `What is Tantric Buddhism`s stand on vegetarianism and meat eating?`

The Dalai Lama replied, `I personally am a vegetarian, but the lamas aren`t.`

The questioner then raised this issue: `If a person is not a vegetarian, then he or she is killing. Isn`t this a breach of the Five Precepts?`
The reply given by the Dalai Lama was ambiguous, suggesting that being a non-vegetarian does not imply one is killing, and that there is no connection between killing and consuming vegetarian meals.

In fact, the Dalai Lama laughed embarrassingly and said, `The lamas don`t kill for food, neither are they vegetarians.`

When I was at Drepung Loseling Monastery having our meals together with the Khenpo, only meat was served.

To my knowledge, the Chinese Buddhist orders were commanded by Xiao Yan, the Chinese Emperor Wu of the Liang Dynasty, to instruct their ordained monks and nuns to adopt a vegetarian lifestyle.
This is characteristic of Chinese Buddhism, which has the intention to nurture compassion and avoid creating negative karma.

Consuming vegetarian meals in itself has its merits, but it is not a definite key to attaining buddhahood. 

If taking vegetarian meals by itself could lead to buddhahood, horses, cows and sheep would have long attained enlightenment!

Many beginners in Buddhism are not accustomed to sticking to a vegetarian lifestyle.
It is advisable that they consume the `three pure meats`
(no personal sighting of the animal being killed, no actual hearing of its cry while it is being killed, and no killing done by oneself specifically for personal consumption).

This is a convenient solution as an alternative to adopting a vegetarian lifestyle.

Should the True Buddha practitioner adopt a strict vegetarian lifestyle?

My answer to this is: `It`s up to you.`

But any meal-eating practitioner must purify their meat by `blowing a gust of air` and reciting the Manjusri Deliverance Mantra. 
This is applying the Tantric method to deliver the souls of the animals, transforming the meal into purified food. 

Upon offering merits to the soul of the animal whose meat is to be consumed, the meat can thus be eaten. 

This is because when you have extended your compassion and delivered the soul, there exists no bond of negative karmic affinity between you and the animal soul.

The views held by the Sutric and Tantric traditions on taking meat and vegetarian meals are different, but please remember this verse expounded by the Buddha:
One mouthful of pure water 
Contains eighty four thousand worms 
If you do not recite a mantra 
It is as good as killing.

Such subtle truth must be discerned carefully!
