Membangkitkan Janin Yang Telah Mati


Ringkasan Artikel Mahaguru dari buku No.233 – 70 Mimpi Spiritual, hlm.150
Diringkas dan diterjemahkan ke Bahasa Inggris oleh Lotuschef – 29 April 2013

Sumber: 救死胎 Reviving Dead Fetus


W adalah seorang umat Buddha yang taat. Dari sejak muda, orang tuanya yang menganut Ordo Tanah Suci mengajarkannya cara menjapa nama suci Buddha. Oleh karenanya dia bisa menjapa [Amituofo] 100 kali, lalu masing-masing 3 kali untuk Avalokiteshvara dan Mahasthamaprapta. Sudah jadi kebiasaan sejak masa muda dan dilakukan tiap hari juga.

Ia lalu menikah dengan G, seorang umat Ordo Satya Buddha.
Berhubung keduanya melatih sadhana yang berbeda dari ordo yang berbeda pula, maka sering terjadi argumentasi.

Suatu hari, G bertanya ke Mahaguru Lu, mana yang lebih baik, Ordo Satya Buddha atau Tanah Suci?
Mahaguru memberitahunya bahwa dua-duanya sama baiknya karena di Satya Buddha juga punya Amitabha Buddha sebagai salah satu dari 8 yidam utama yang dilatih.

Sejak saat itu G berhenti adu argumentasi dengan W.

Suatu waktu saat W mulai mengandung bayi yang sudah berumur 4 bulan, ia melakukan bersih-bersih rumah saat musim semi dan “qi fetus”-nya menjadi terganggu.
Saat menjalani pemeriksaan pranatal (sebelum kelahiran), jantung janinnya tidak menunjukkan tanda-tanda berdetak. Ia mati di dalam kandungan.
Dokter katakan bahwa si janin sudah tidak ada detak jantungnya selama 7 hari dan harus dikeluarkan. Sudah tak ada cara lain.

G & W datang kepadaku dan aku menggambarkan sebuah fu untuk diminumnya.

Kukatakan bila dalam 3 hari ternyata tidak ada reaksi, kamu harus mengikuti petunjuk dokter dan mengeluarkan janin tersebut.

G bertanya: Mahaguru Lu, apa benar sudah tak ada cara lain lagi?

Akupun menimpalinya: Kita lihat saja siapa tahu ada mujizat!

Malam itu, W mendapatkan sebuah mimpi. Di sana, ia melihat Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara turun dari angkasa, lalu berdiri di sebelah ranjangnya.
Saat W ingin membuka mulutnya, ia diberi tanda supaya jangan melakukannya.
Bodhisattva lalu menuangkan air suci dari vas-nya, dan dengan tangkai willow Ia memercikkan air suci tersebut ke perut W.
Bodhisattva tersenyum dan menganggukkan kepalanya, lalu terbang kembali ke angkasa.

W melihat wajah Bodhisattva sambil merasa keanehan karena wajah Sang Bodhisattva sepertinya berubah menjadi wajah Mahaguru Lu.

Mahaguru Lu berkata: Sudah tak ada masalah! Sudah tak ada masalah! Pergilah memeriksakan lagi!

Begitulah mimpinya.

W lalu kembali ke rumah sakit untuk memeriksakan janinnya kembali. Sebuah mujizat terjadi, jantung janinnya sudah berdetak kembali!

Dokter bilang: Untuk pertama kalinya ini menyimpang dari kebiasaan. Detak jantung sudah berhenti selama 7 hari tiba-tiba bisa mulai lagi. Sungguh aneh!

G & W sangat bahagia.
Setelah mengandung selama 10 bulan, akhirnya seorang bayi dilahirkan dan kunamai “Li En”.

Teman-teman sekalian yang terkasih,
Dengan adanya seorang Budha Hidup yang Sejati, mujizat benar-benar terjadi!!!

Salam semuanya.

Karma – Terlahir Buta

Ringkasan Artikel Mahaguru dari buku No.233 – 70 Mimpi Spiritual, hlm.134

因果 Karma – 先天盲婴 Terlahir buta


Belakangan ini aku banyak melihat anak-anak yang cacat sejak lahir.
Umumnya adalah yang tak bisa/tak mau bicara, beberapa hanya bisa mengeluarkan suara.
Beberapa lainnya malah hiperaktif tapi dengan tingkat kecerdasan yang rendah, selalu mengulang kesalahan yang sama berulang kali.

Hahaha! Tentu saja, bahkan orang dewasa pun sama halnya!

[Berikut ini cerita dari guru tentang bayi laki-laki yang buta sejak lahir.

Dokter bedah menyarankan untuk operasi untuk kedua mata bayi ini karena tertutupi oleh selapis membran buram yang tebal.
Tapi, selama operasi, para dokter bedah menemukan ternyata masih ada lagi membran yang sama yang melapisi mata si bayi!

Orang tuanya pergi ke sana kemari untuk mencari berbagai macam bantuan.
Sampai pada suatu sesi bertemu dengan seorang medium, mereka diberitahukan: Mahaguru Lu adalah seorang Buddha yang sejati, pergilah dan mintalah bantuan kepada Mahaguru Lu secepatnya!

Karena Mahaguru saat itu sedang berada di Seattle, maka orang tua si bayi menulis surat dan mengirimkannya ke Seattle.
Saat setelah mengirimkan surat tersebut, mereka mendapatkan mimpi.
Di dalam mimpi, mereka melihat Mahaguru terbang dengan anggunnya sambil didampingi oleh 8 orang Dakini.

Mereka kemudian bertanya: Karma apa yang telah diperbuat si bayi dari pasangan ini hingga terlahir buta? Bagaimana caranya menghapus karma tersebut?

Mahaguru: Di kehidupan lampau, bayi ini punya 2 orang guru yang mulia dan berkualitas, sayangnya ia mengkhianati mereka berdua. Kedua mata tak mampu mengenali guru yang baik, makanya terlahir kembali dengan lapisan membran ganda yang menutupi kedua matanya.

8 Dakinis: Karma memang benar-benar menakutkan, tapi bagaimana cara untuk membuka matanya?

Mahaguru menimpali: Aku bacakan satu ayat [dari Sutra Teratai]. Ingatlah baik-baik! Ingatlah baik-baik!

Setelah menerima instruksi dari Mahaguru, mereka memberi hormat kepada Avalokitesvara dan Padmakumara.

Dengan hati yang semakin tulus dalam membaca sutra, perlahan-lahan membran yang menutupi kedua mata si bayi mulai memudar. Si anak akhirnya mulai bisa melihat.

Kedua orang tua ini kemudian bersarana kepada Aliran Satya Buddha dan menuntun banyak orang untuk bersarana juga.]

Teman-teman sekalian yang terkasih,
Dengan segala kerendahan hati turut menyarankan mereka yang punya anak-anak yang cacat sejak lahir, untuk memohon bantuan dengan menulis kepada Mahaguru Lu, Buddha Hidup Lian Sheng.
Jangan sia-siakan waktu dan sumber dayamu dengan pergi ke sana kemari.

Masih ada banyak lagi artikel mengenai anak-anak yang cacat di dalam buku ini.
Beli dan bacalah buku ini.
Mungkin kamu bisa membantu mereka yang punya masalah yang sama seperti yang dituliskan oleh Mahaguru Lu dalam buku ini.

Salam semuanya.

GM's Article - Who is Happiest?


Terjemahan Indonesia: Artikel Mahaguru – Siapa yang paling bahagia?
Guru's article translated by Lama Lotuschef



Dessert – winter melon, sweet & bitter almonds, dried longans, honey dates, pitted large red dates. No sugar added!

Feeling misunderstood? Melancholic? A nice warm dessert like this will warm & sooth you! :) Cheers.

Who cares what the world said against You?

Someone told me that a fellow student is very depressed and unhappy because Rumor has it that he was maligned in allegedly accusing another student of hiring Maoshan practitioners to hurt Guru.

Well? True or False, really doesn't matter!
What matters is that you are Innocent and Know this Truth!

I found Guru's article that is good for all those who were and are still being wrongfully accused or misunderstood!

I am translating this for those who don't understand/read Chinese.
Enjoy! :)

Book 230 – After Rain Again

Source: Book 230 ~ 又一番雨過 – 誰最快樂?


If someone ask me: Who is Happiest in this sentient realm?
I would not hesitate to say: Yes, I am.

If someone ask me: Who is the Craziest in this sentient realm?
I would jump up and say: Yes, I am the Craziest.

As per information, 80% of artists, poets, geniuses, all possess a wee bit of craziness.

Yes, I have been jeered at and labelled: Crazy Dharma King Lu Sheng Yan.  

After I have a little success, some people started to get imbalanced heart or mindset, they tried to pick at your faults, as traditional saying: To pick bone from within an egg. [means picking at something that don't exist.] Because they can't {endure} your success, can't {endure} your achievement.   

Say have to use speech. (Gossip)
Words must use written. (Humiliate)

They need to attack you, defame you, humiliate you, flatten or deflate you, unwilling/uncaring of understanding you....
  
However, I understand, these people have: Red Eye Disease! [means jealous]
  
Jealous, Envy, are basic form of Human Traits. Only those [Lacking in Abilities/Untalented] will not be defamed or slandered by others.
  
In my viewpoint - I am a specially independent person, those handful of people, have nothing to do with me, he lives his life and I live mine.
  
I am living happily all the while, because I confirmed my Attainment.

Jia Jia! Yu Yu! [giggles] 
 
He/She all knows my Attainment.
  
Write a poem:
Had flown to the green skies, to attend non-cloud non-smoke event at Yao Ci [pond named Yao]
Golden Mother of the Yao Pond said to me: Human realm has layers.
I laughed. 
How do they know what it is like to be in Golden Palace.
I am in Heaven, Heavenly fragrance like beautiful flowers  
He who is on the ground, is naggy and has shallow outlook.
This Distance apart, results in laughter filling my face.

Jia Jia! Yu Yu! [giggles]   

Honestly speaking, I, Lu Sheng Yan, is no longer a human being. I have already break free from society, crowds, human realm, humans.
I am Buddha, I am Golden Fairy/Deity.

I still need wealth?        ‧

I still need beauties?

I still need fame/prestige/honor?   

No one understands you, You also do not need anyone's understanding. Although you live in sentient realm, but in actual fact, you live in Heaven.

Excited with Joy, living in Serenity, Purity, Selflessness...

I basically am not Born, also no Death! [Enlightenment statement]

Dear all, I hope you all bear in mind this lesson from Guru.

As long as you know the Truth, and am honest and truthful, what others choose to say Really Really don't matter an iota, correct? :)

Those who are Truly lacking but still want to stay atop or in control will do anything to attack you, even to the extend of lying!

Hahaha! I am constantly being maligned by fellow students too! Do I Care? NO! :)

Whoever hired the hit from Maoshan practitioners on Guru, will face their own karmic returns, which has nothing to do with those innocent of these heinous acts, agree?

Smile and share that Smile!  :) :) :)

Cheers all.

B.154 The Aura of Wisdom [Ch.22] Liberal Authentication




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 22 - Liberal Authentication

Besides receiving authentication from one`s Root Guru, can the Tantric practitioner authenticate himself, such as that of liberal authentication?

I feel that this has to be done by one who has the correct view of cultivation.
Such a practitioner must have actual attainment gained from true practice, and must hold great compassion for others. He must thoroughly master the theoretical and practical aspects of cultivation, being wise and humble, and transform his five poisons into the Five Transcendental Wisdoms.

Thus, the first few things to verify when exercising liberal authentication are:
Is your mind purified?
Is your speech purified?
Is your body purified?
Is your vital chi sufficient?
Are your channels unblocked?
Are your drops free from leakage?
Have you gained bliss?
Has the clear light appeared?
Has the mind been emptied?
Have you attained completion of the ground of fruition?

The last authentication is, `The doctrines of inner realization attained by the Dharmakaya Tathagata cannot be fathomed even by bodhisattvas who have attained the Stage of Buddha Enlightenment. It is only known between buddhas.`

People today are living in a degenerate age.
As such, if liberal authentication is advocated, it is difficult to tell the real gurus from the pseudo ones.
Many do not speak the truth, yet they claim to have attained enlightenment when they have not.

These pseudo gurus look for quick ways to get rich, craving fame and fortune, thereby deceiving themselves and others.
They put on a cloak of falsehood and try to pull themselves off as the real thing, but in so doing they have stepped onto the evil path and will descend to hell at the end of their lives.

Liberal authentication shall result in the following occurrences:
  1. A liar claiming he is enlightened.
  2. A lunatic (mental patient) also claiming he is enlightened.
  3. An individual possessed by Mara also claiming he is enlightened.
  4. Any person possessed by ghosts claiming he has great spiritual powers.
  5. A seemingly enlightened adept is actually being fooled by Mara.

I feel that it is better to be honest with one`s cultivation.
Do not hold such thoughts that one has already reached certain spiritual heights and realms.
Be natural, or it will be easy to be attached to illusory forms and run the risk of destroying one`s wisdom life

Many students of Buddhism like to shop for Dharma, hopping from one school to another.
This pattern is known as `school wandering`, in which the students wander from one school of thought to the next.
Sentient beings are fickle and fluid. One moment, they will flow to the East, and then the next moment you will find them in the West.

I once heard this rumour: `Living Buddha Lian-sheng, Sheng-yen Lu himself has taken refuge with several dozen gurus and ordained monks. If I aspire to be like him, taking refuge and receiving empowerment from teachers everywhere, what is wrong with that?` When the person advising against such behaviour heard this argument, he felt it made sense, and could not refute it.

Today, I am offering my answer. Anyone who wishes to study the Buddhadharma may explore other Buddhist schools of thought, not so much for thrills, but so that they may draw comparisons between the respective teachings.

After you gain a clear picture of the teachings of the True Buddha School, and you are satisfied with what they can offer, you may then choose to take refuge in me.

I do not stop people from seeking out and visiting virtuous teachers. On the other hand, you may want to take a look at what the True Buddha Tantric Dharma has to offer. From the Four Preliminary Practices to the Great Perfection, external to internal practices, worldly to transcendental practices, Deity Yoga to Ferocious Deity Yoga, common to uncommon practices, fire and water offerings, and even the supreme Yoga Tantras of Tibetan Buddhism such as Dzogchen, Mahamudra, Great Perfection Profound Wisdom, and the Yamantaka practice - - all are included in the system of the True Buddha Tantric Dharma.

The True Buddha Tantric Dharma is the most comprehensive system of Buddhist practice. Whatever you want to learn and study is offered here.

I can honestly tell everyone that whatever practices you wish to learn from other schools, I have included them in the True Buddha School, presented in their most authentic and reliable form. You may even find practices unavailable elsewhere. I am an accomplished adept who epitomizes the teachings and practices of all Buddhist and Taoist schools.

When you take refuge in Living Buddha Lian-sheng, Sheng-yen Lu, it is tantamount to taking refuge in several dozens of gurus and ordained teachers. Is that not sufficient?

In fact, it should be said that when one takes refuge in the True Buddha School, one has reached the definitive teaching. One will not find any other school with as comprehensive a system as ours. If one still wishes to run around aimlessly from one school to another like a headless chicken, one deserves to be spanked!
