松风梅骨 Pine's Sturdiness Plum Blossom's Perseverance

Terjemahan Bahasa: Kokoh Bagai Pinus, Gigih Bagai Prem Cina

松风梅骨，

形容像青松一样，在风雨中，昂首挺立；

illustrating the sturdiness and upright nature of Green pine tree withstanding harsh wind & rain;

像梅花一样，在冰雪天，傲视寒冷。

like Plum Blossom on snowy day,  looking proudly at the harsh winter or defying the harsh cold.

这是一种什么精神？

This is a type of mindset or mentality?

是一种什么榜样？

Is a type of model to emulate?

这是一种大无畏的英雄主义精神，

This is a type of great fearless spirit of hero's mindset,

这是一种人人敬仰，值得每个人学习的榜样。

This is a type that all admire, worthy of each one to learn from.

松风：指松树的风范。

梅骨：指梅花的骨气。

象松树一样高风亮节，象梅花一样有经寒傲骨。

形容气节高尚。

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

Now draw upon GM Lu's words on what a true yogi should be:

［站如松，坐如钟，行如风，卧如弓］

Stand erect as pine, sit as bell, move as wind, laying down as bow.

Hahaha!

We have heard too much rumors & lies spread around, so much so that many perceived as Threatening, resulting in [Fear]!

A Buddhist assembly's administrative body is "trigger happy" to file legal suits against their perceived opponents funded by funds from fellow students!

Slapping [copyrights] on Dharma propagating materials!

So who still dare to take refuge with this Buddhist sector?

Who still dare to share and propagate dharma from this Buddhist sector?

What is the ultimate target of this Buddhist sector?

Do bear in mind that continued existence of any Sentient group or organisation requires sentient materials from followers or supporters!

If you can't share Authentic Buddha Dharma, like a restaurant that can't deliver authentic cuisines, YOU will be out of "business" soon!

Do not "RUN" a Buddhist assembly as you will a sentient commercial organisation!

Day's end?

You trapped yourself forever in Timeless Hell!

In a recent speech, GM said someone wrote in to tell him to refrain from mentioning names when he "talks bad" about them or list their lackings!

Hahaha!

Dear all, did you listen to this speech?

GM acceded to this student's wish and said that in future he will tell the student concern IN PRIVATE!

In the same speech, GM said he drew on these students as examples to illustrate certain points or concepts!

Let us look at this matter from other angles, shall we?

Now what's wrong in your very own Root Guru pointing out a fault in public?
You might think this is "talk bad" to hurt this student!
Now GM said many times that he is not bothered about FACE & also not bothered about what others choose to hurl at him!

In Pointing Out, the student and those that are present learned what is faulty and can then make necessary changes to IMPROVE, agree?

So, Benefit more sentient beings, agree?

When people slander you or "look down on" you, they are helping you clear your karmic negatives!
So why do you feel bad or shameful?

For all GM Lu's students, you should be very thankful that you have a True Yogi, A Living Buddha, as your Root Guru.

You all should be equally grateful to have your faults pointed out in Public, which means Your Root Guru knows and cares for You and Your Future or Fate!

Hahaha!
People said I talked bad about others too!

So, instead of drawing upon Live Subjects and Incidences; I post some statements by students and let you go figure out!

Less work for me too!

The first two Assignments created tons of extra work, but Assignment [3] was easy.
Direct and to the point answers only for [3].

Direct and to the Point is similar with GM's pointing out!

You want to be able to achieve Guru Yoga, look inwards & not outwards!

Why should Root Guru change to accommodate your "feelings" or your views?

Hahaha!

Now Perseverance is yet another factor that all aspiring to be yogi should learn and develop!

The student that wrote in, is very obviously thinking for others or measuring others with his/her own views, agree?

In Zen concepts, Live examples are the best for illustration.

Having a Root Guru that points out your problem so that you can change for the better, and having others in on the same, Everyone learns at the same time!

To GM or any Buddha, No differentiation or segregation, therefore, All students & non-students are ONE!

THINK hard before you act on your impulse, when you have yet to achieve Guru Yoga!

You have Deprived the students' concerned of a Chance to sacrifice Self Pride & Ego! 

Hahaha! Pretty interesting when you look at matters from multi-angles, right?

I love a Root Guru that cares and knows my faults and points them out to me, in public or privately! 
Do you?

Letting Go is a factor you should learn too!


Cheers all.
