Set Price on Buddha Dharma? 佛法定价?






真佛般若藏 ~师尊说[随缘赞助]!
True Buddha Prajna Garbha ~ GM Lu said [Sponsor at will]!

Hahaha!
Now lets have FUN!

真佛般若藏是什么?
What is this TBPG?
其内容出自那里?
Where does its contents comes from?
其有何作用?
What is the purpose of this TBPG?

真佛般若藏来自莲生活佛[弘法]的典故,内涵他的精髓!
TBPG derives from Living Buddha Lian Sheng's [Dharma propagation] experiences/encounters, consisting of his [vital essences]!

Does Buddha set prices on his teachings?
No!
Likewise, GM Lu said that all can subscribe to be member of TBPG and up to them to sponsor at will!

GM Lu mentioned that the creators of TBPG puts in great efforts and resources and hope that subscribers can help towards lightening the loads of these creators and also help towards maintenance of TBPG.

Now:
Do you need TBPG?
If you need, then for what purpose?

TBPG is actually similar to those sponsoring printing of Dharma literatures like dharani.
If can't reach out to benefit sentient beings, then it serves no purpose at all.
I have written that being able to afford to pay for printing of dharma literatures but unable to give it out and help anyone develop affinity with Buddha Dharma, your efforts and resources are frivolous.
But most pay for printing such literatures for the purpose of increasing their personal merits or to lessen their karmic debts.
This is with ulterior motive for self benefits!


Now from another angle:
Dharma charity ~ for the creators of TBPG, they compile Buddha Dharma shared by GM Lu, to ease access to more beings. If they do not expect rewards in any form, then they are actually doing Dharma Charity.

They will be rewarded whenever TBPG successfully helps someone, their karmic negatives will lessen and their merits will increased.
Ah! Yes!
Not personal monetary gains and also not boosts to their ego with GM Lu praising their efforts publicly!

Now:
If you used TBPG and it benefits you, or help you live a happier life and sharing that happiness around, you don't owe the creators for using their compilation.
However, if you think that you can access TBPG without paying back in anyway, then you actually increase your karmic debts!
Abuse of TBPG also increases your karmic negatives!

Remember all the dharma knowhow you have acquired so far, have to be applied in every instances of your life!

GM Lu said [sponsor at will] for various reasons though.
Think you can figure out some?
Hahaha!

EMAIL - Re: Request Prayer Support


Terjemahan Bahasa: Membalas Email – Memohon Dukungan Doa



The following is an email sent to Pure Karma.
It is in the exact form received.
Notice the Lama Lotuschef and 莲廚法师 is copied from the blog.

Now, this email should go to a Malaysian Buddhist chapter or institution, instead of to Pure Karma, which is based in Singapore and Indonesia.

The writer didn't include an address of the one that he thinks need Prayer support of all "buddhist member".

Dear all, 
Long distance help - one need to submit not a name, but the address and also a photo.

It is obvious the writer can read blog if he can 'cut & paste" Lotuschef's name.
What would be the best form of help for writer and his wife?

Request Prayer Support?
Hope all buddhist member can pray for her?

From the contents of email, if you understand Karma & its actions, what should you do?

1. Say sorry
2. Pay debts
3. Do charity & benefit others

This is not a failure story that lasted 15 years but a success story of endurance for 15 years.
Both party can [Do-it-yourself]!

Instead of asking for Prayer Support, learn and chant prayers yourself and dedicate to All beings.
All beings includes self, karmic foes, families, friends, and those you not acquainted with as of present moment.
In this way, you say sorry to those you owe and say "Hi" to those you don't owe and have yet to be acquainted with.

Seeking help from anyone else?
You created more debts for yourself only.

In this blog, there are recordings of many sutras and the easiest one is the High King Sutra. 
Else chanting titles of Buddhas like "Namo Amituofo" and dedicate these to all beings and wishing all beings healthy and happy will do too.

Thus you don't create debts for self and also benefit others.
In this way, you can also clear your own karmic debts and Set Yourself Free!

Writer took for granted that siblings should help out their sister.
Think: before putting blame on the siblings for their reluctance to offer help, what has this sister done to them in this and past lifetime to alienate family?

Pure Karma always pray for the well being of All beings at all our function and events. 

We do not select any special party to pray for unless the party concerned is willing to help themselves. 

Money is also not the issue!

As long as the party is willing to do chanting dedication to all beings or do charity work, they will be stepping on the road to "take control of their own lives" 自主生死.

When the writer change his mindset that others owe him and must help him or his wife, he will learn that he and only himself can change his own life.

Do not take for granted that you have a right to anything!

Karma is a scary thing if it comprises all Negatives!

Karma is one's own and no one else's!

Hahaha! I am not charitable? 
If you think so, then you don't understand that HELP was offered in this post already!



Cheers all

佛菩萨认识你吗? Divinities Know You?

Terjemahan Indonesia: Apakah Para Dewata Tahu Tentang Keberadaanmu? [佛菩萨认识你吗?]




Recently, over a cup of tea, I spoke to a couple.
I told them that everything in Tantra Cultivation is dependent of Root Guru being our Link to the Universe.

I had also explain last Sunday during Cultivation of Vajrasattva Repentance,
What you have for this Life, or your resources is dependent on the Amount of Auspicious Merits 福报 you accumulated from previous Lifetime.
For example: you bring 10millions dollars.
You hit the jackpot for some lottery and won all 10 millions at one go.
You have nothing left after you spent this 10 millions!
However, if you cultivate Boddhicitta or is charitable all your life, YOU earn Auspicious Merits that will multiply with each Charitable deed to ensure that you are well off to continue to be Charitable. :)

They brought up 金母马上有钱法 Golden Mother's Immediately Have Money Practice.
This one needs Abhiseka from Root Guru.
Also GM was very specific with regards to all these Fortune Churning Practices.
Divinities and Fortune Deities will not entertain you because They Do Not Know You!
Also even through Root Guru, you need to have accumulated relevant amount of auspicious merits to allot you relevant amount of wealth or resources!

If you listen to GM attentively & comprehensively, YOU will Never Chase $$$ this way! :)

Now, in another recent case, a student asked for help, crying and seeking help because the family's fishing vessel hit something and there is a big hole, causing water to enter the vessel and slowly sinking it.

Prior to this, we were discussing plans to do event in this student's hometown.

GM instructed that we do event elsewhere for this date.
So we change venue.

I was informed by the student that the finally managed to raise the fishing vessel last week.

In the above case, the student was disappointed and pretty unhappy.

However, this unhappy feeling and disappointment should not arise, if One has Absolute Faith in Root Guru!

For this case, GM helped by getting Dragon King of the area to assist.
Like recent articles that I shared in this blog, the Karmic influences of the subjects come into play or consideration.

One cannot Overdraft on Auspicious Merits 福报 or Buddha Affinities 佛缘!

The Decision of holding an event elsewhere truly came about because of the Karmic influences of this student's entire family.
Lack of Auspicious Merits or Buddha Affinity this time, doesn't mean forever.
So rectification is to cultivate more diligently as a family to build Buddha Affinity!

Without GM, your Root Guru, will Dragon King help you?
Without the relevant merits & affinities, Help extended is limited!

Unhappiness can lead to anger & hatred to Hit Out or Take Revenge!
Watch that you do not fall prey to the 3 Poisons of Greed, Ignorance, Aversions!


Buddha is infinitely wise and compassionate to all as One!
Do you merit Buddha's compassion?

Question:
Do you think you have enough merits to ensure all your wishes are granted?

Think:
What Am I Doing?

Know:
Truly understand what I am doing and asking?

Solution:
Have you employed the 8 Fold Noble Path in this matter?

Sentient wishes & demands should never interfere with a Sincere & Diligent Cultivator's outlook even for a fraction of a second.

Remember to Free Self to Break Free from 6 Realms of Samsara.


Cheers all.

Book 235: Heavenly Doctor 天医神君

Terjemahan Indonesia: Tabib Langit [天医神君]

This article is found in page 50 - 53 of GM's book 235 - Visitors from the Spiritual Realm.

Summary Translation by Lama Lotuschef

---

There was this couple who flew to Taiwan to seek help from GM.
Their request: Married for 15 years without child, wish that His Holiness, The Living Buddha Lian Sheng, exhibit his great astral abilities, let us have a child.

GM said: OK.
Then he blessed them with Mo-ding and also give them a Talisman that he imprinted or stamped with a breath of "HA".

GM said: When home, select a "Success/Fruitful" day, drink the talisman and wait for miracle.
[Success/Fruitful can be found on the Lunar Calendar or Chinese Almanac as 成日].

That night, a heavenly visitor arrived.
He said that he is Heavenly Doctor - appointed as Deity Magistrate.

He then explained that the talisman Gm gave to the couple for a child, originates from him. 
His purpose of visit is to clarify with GM that as the talisman originates from him, when drinking the talisman do not enable the couple to have child, his Duty is at stake. 
GM was puzzled and asked for reason.

Heavenly doctor: this lady has both ovaries removed due to inflammation. Therefore without ovaries or eggs, how to have child?
Talisman of [Inherently or Naturally become pregnant] is ineffective.

GM: Buddha's Dharma is Infinite, can you give her 2 ovaries, then she can have children.

Heavenly Doctor: I do have powers to heal blindness, deaf, wheelchair bound. I can change livers, kidneys, hearts, and revive the dead, but for this couple I can't do anything.

GM: Why?

Heavenly Doctor: This couple's families are wealthy, this wealth is accumulated by illegal deeds, thus the ancestors do not have merits.
If have merits passed down from ancestors, with Heavenly grace, can heal illness in life. The couple today, their ancestors have no merits, thus cannot save.

GM sighed: Sentient beings should cultivate merits, to prevent compromising their descendants.
I empathize those sentient beings affected and suffering from karmic negatives influences.

---

Dear all, 
GM tried his best to help all in need.
However, Do You merit this help?
Do you have merits enough for this help to be fruitful or materialize?

Why don't you start cultivating  diligently to help yourself and your ancestors now?

You can do charity on behalf of your ancestors as well as for self.
  1. Charity can consist of monetary donations to charitable causes;
  2. volunteering your efforts (muscles) to do work for needies at certain institution;
  3. Dharma charity of cultivation and dedication of merits to all sentient beings which include your karmic foes and also those of your ancestors of this and past lifetimes.

Pure Karma does Ancestors Offering or Dedication 3 times a year.
  1. Qing Ming festival - Tomb sweeping day. [Early April.]
  2. Zhong Yuan Festival - Lunar 7th month - also called Ghost festival
  3. A month before Chinese New Year.

This event aims to provide ancestors with abundant resources to even share with those in need around them. 

Pure Karma also does offering to Homeless Spirits during all events, to charitably provide the needy spirits with resources.


One tub of these incense are for Homeless Spirits.

All these light orbs shows how happy our offering is being accepted.

Homeless spirits are spirits that do not have or do not receive any resources from anyone or any descendant. 

Hahaha! 
Want to do something now? 
The good thing about Cultivation is that you can atone for wrongs to others from Self and also your Ancestors.

Cheers all.

内供养/ 外供养 Internal & External Offering




We were at the HSR in Taichung.
We bought a few lunch boxes of meat and rice.

After deliverance and cleansing, we did the Great mandala offering and began to eat.

E shared his with his wife, V.

I told V to chant [Om Ah Hom] to cleanse before offering / eating.
[The Buddha/Divinities within also need to eat 'purified' food.]

J and S immediately asked me why V needs to do offering again with the same box of food which is already offered by E.

Dear readers, have you been reading my blog articles?

What did GM said about offerings? I posted this recently.

In offering,  then partaking of the food, one is actually offering to the Buddha and Divinities WITHIN.

When we do Fire Puja, we are offering EXTERNALLY to all Divinities and those listed in the script as offerers receive blessings or merits. Of course participants/attendees are also on the receiving end of these Offering sessions.

V is the only one that came out with [内供养/ 外供养 Internal and External Offering].

She also obediently do the cleansing then offering.

Haha!

GM said everything we do is CULTIVATION!
Read more of GM's articles for they contain great wisdom of an Enlighten One.
