有一對男女朋友吵架，女的對男的講：「只有狗才會愛你！」
A couple was quarrelling, and the Female said to the Male: Only dog will love you!
男的很安靜、很鎮定、很慈祥的說：「我昨天繼承我爸爸的遺產，一共有一百多億。」
Male very calmly, very steadily, very caringly said: Yesterday, I just inherited my late dad's estate totalling more than a hundred billions.
這女的一聽，就馬上趴下來叫：「汪！汪！汪！汪！汪！」
Upon hearing these, the female immediately prostrate on the floor and bark: Wang! Wang! Wang! Wang! Wang!
【蓮生活佛 盧勝彥法王(盧師尊) 妙語演繹】
GM Lu explained the above uniquely in Dharma Context.
為金錢迷失啊！居然學狗叫，因為她自己講說「只有狗才會愛你嘛！」
Lost because of Money! Even to the extend of learning to Bark like a dog, because she said that [ Only dog will love you!]
我們學佛的人，不能為金錢迷失、為名迷失、為地位迷失，甚至於為感情迷失，都是不可以的，要保持很清醒的一個狀態，這樣比較好修行，如果你迷失了，執迷了，就是執著了。
Us, Buddha's students, cannot be lost because of Money, Fame, Status, or even because of love & feelings, Must maintain clarity status, this way is much better for cultivation, if you are lost, fixatedly lost, that is Fixation or Attachment.
我們的聰明才智，在於學佛、學法、學聖賢僧，若是你聽到了正法，你要將正法牢牢的記在你的心中，口訣記在你的心中，修行要怎麼修，修法要怎麼修，唸經要怎麼唸，觀想要怎麼觀，手印要怎麼結，咒語要怎麼持，都有方法的，都有口訣的。
Our intelligence and wisdom, in learning Buddha, Dharma, Sangha,
and if you hear True Dharma, you should memorise firmly by heart,
key-points memorise in your heart,
how to practice cultivation,
how to cultivate dharma,
how to chant sutra,
how to do visualisation,
how to form mudra,
how to chant mantra,
all have methods and key-points.

I talked about Fixation in recent articles! :)
Hahaha!
You think that you fully comprehend the articles you read from my blog and thus formed an opinion and judged me!
Did you truly understand what I am trying to share?
Sadly, NO!
I put in a clause stating: These are statements of a certain student, didn't I?
That is a Single-pointed view of the student relating her Version of what she made-up of another person only!
But the story was used as a live example to discuss Dharma! :)
Let me share with you something important to remember before you start to go convince or instigate any matters or start a war with only your short sighted and limited view and comprehension of the surfaces of matters!
If you need to convince others to gain majority "votes" or opinions against a True Sangha, make sure you are armed with adequate "ammunitions" consisting only of Buddha's Philosophy and Dharma!
Buddha's Philosophy and Dharma are geared towards "Awakening" an Individual's own Buddha nature and resulting in the Awakened Individual performing for the benefits of all beings!
Telling others to stay away from someone that you judged as unsatisfactory;
or like VM HJ telling others to not befriend those she had pronounced as "Bad";
Pray tell where is your Root Guru at these times and
What happened to your Root Guru's teachings at these times too?
Hahaha! Remember well and by heart that "In Tantrayana, You Must Have your Root Guru with you at All Times, if you are a True & Sincere aspiring to be True Yogi"!
For Qualities of a True Yogi, please refer to GM Lu's book "Sword of the Yogi" and there in lies 10 qualities that a True Yogi must have!!!
O! Remember that Dharma are methods to execute with the knowledge of Buddha's philosophy!
Don't show your utter ignorance so readily and leave yourself wide-open for All to Read!
Cheers all.
