13:50 Z: 這個短訊我不敢不轉！
觀音菩薩言：父是天；母是地，盡孝父母要牢記，夫妻愛；子女孝，家和比什麼都重要，行點善；積點德，多做善事多積德。只要能吃飯，錢就不會斷。不怕嫌錢少，就怕走得早。官再大，錢再多，閻王照樣土地拖。
[Z: This message I dare not don't send out!
This passage above quoted a paragraph of Avalokitesvara’s teachings about filial piety and some virtuous deeds.
The one below states that this is Avalokitesvara’s ordination month and you will be bless with all auspiciousness if you send this message to 12 of your friends or relatives, in 4 days time. If you do not send out, your whole year will not be smooth, so send! Quite accurate.]
本月是觀音菩薩出家月，福、祿、壽、喜、財各路神仙都來保佑你，你要傳給12位朋友或親人，4天後一定會有好運來！如刪除或不發，一年不順，發吧！滿靈
16:41 LC: 以后不要转这些给我。阿弥陀佛！
[Do not send these type of message to me in future. Amituofo!]
17:07 Z: 什麼都是好的！對我有什麼意見吧？我一向都接受，只要有道理！
[Everything is good! You have something against me? I always accept, if reasonable!]
20:35 Z: 想問下為什麼我感覺到你生我氣？我很care你我的友誼，可以告訴我做錯什麼嗎？
[Like to ask why I feel that you are angry with me? I care very much about our friendship, can tell me where I did wrong?]
6-3-2012 From Z -
17:10 IDD calls
17:12 Please help
17:12 Please!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I met Z last year in Caotun temple after an event conducted by our Root Guru, Grand master Sheng Yen Lu.
I have been sharing with her how to stay cool calm and clear minded and not to hit out instantly at anything she considers an attack against her.
After more than 6 months, I see no improvement and seem she trades on friendship to consult me whenever she has the whim to do so; via IDD calls; Viber; emails and the latest, Whats app.
I was shown a status posting of hers by a student last Saturday, 3rd March.
She seems to be scolding someone and said
- [from now on she will listen only to Grandmaster Lu and no one else.]
I advised her to chant Guru’s mantra whenever she encounters any disturbance or perceived attacks.
Do readers agree with me that she obviously did not heed my advice?
What can I further do to help her?
I took exception to the Threat of “If you do not send out, your whole year will not be smooth, so send!”
It can also be a curse on the recipients, agree?
I humbly believe that Avalokitesvara does not concur with these threats too!
In Buddhism, we use wisdom and compassion and not threats and curses!
From the “Please help” messages Z sent to me; it is very obvious that after the 4 days, nothing auspicious happened for her but instead some calamity surfaced.
My humble advice to all, please use wisdom and compassion towards all fellow beings.
Our dear Root Guru, Living Buddha Lian Sheng, does not teach/encourage to use threat to force others’ hands.
