Pure Karma's Offering 净业的供品 – Mortal's & Divine's 凡与圣

Terjemahan Indonesia: Persembahan dari Pure Karma – Duniawi dan Surgawi

Please refer to: OFFERINGS & SPECIAL DEDICATIONS

CHAT [1]:

Q: If I want for my karmic, is it under the package of 88SGD?

 Or can it be the main tray pac also? Pls advise? Thanks

A: The karmic pack of $88 is dedication to karmic foes. 

The main tray if for karmic foes, means you are helping them to do dedication or offering to all Divinities.

Q: Oh than main tray better is what I'm thinking to help my karmic do dedication or offering to all divinities, is this helping to reduce suffering too?

A: Yup.
lets say that the $88 pack is to give mortal's needs, 

then the main tray is immortal - as doing offering to divinities will help to reduce karmic negatives n get blessing n help to go pureland :)


Q: Than the main tray already indirectly helping in mortal's needs, main thing is helping karmic to go pureland that's indirectly help mortal liao, isn't that so?

I want to "go home" badly, but also wish all my karmic can "go home" also.
Ya. I'm "stuck" for too long, heavy karma...

So I just register main tray stating for my karmic foes correct?

A: but for most beginners, they need to say sorry to their karmic foes with gifts lol.
then the next stage is to help them get blessing n then they can be cleanse n develop affinity with Buddha

yes. the main tray is from your karmic foes in offering to all divinities

Q: That means I'll still need d gifts which is d 88 package for my karmic, though I want help them on the main tray offering, like that correct?
Apologies for asking too precisely, ....

A: Well, there is an alternative. Sponsor $28 for event & pay $15 for a lotus offering from your karmic foes in offering to the divine. this is a cheaper alternative

Q: Oh...this is how this package combination is! 

Many thanks LotusChef FaShi

~~~~~~~~~~~

CHAT [2]:

Q: wy is asking how much money she should transfer?
i think she didn't read the $28 announcement

A: ya. you tell her she can sponsor then add lotus offering
help them do the relevant offering or dedication

Q: ok

A: sponsor $28 (Divine) + 15 (Mortal) for one lotus
Hahaha! actually it is best to just sponsor lol :)

Q: i understand

A: but she needs the karmic offering n not for herself
you go tell her ba

Q: yes

A: it will take a long time for most to realise Sponsorship actually is practicing Selflessness = a part of Boddhicitta
A Key ingredient to success in cultivation of Buddha Dharma!

Q: Thanks

A: please keep quiet on what I shared with you.

bcos all need to reach a certain level of realisation or enlightenment b4 can understand what I share

Q: yes hor

A: I am sort of Forcing ppl to be event sponsors, right?
have to do so, cos this way then they benefit more

Q: yes, for their own goodness too

A: Selflessness is something very hard to instil
as mortals are naturally or inherently Selfish

Q: yes, i agree

A: learn buddha dharma? most are just lying to themselves

~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear all, 

remember the 2 verses written by Zen Patriarch Hui Neng & his fellow student, Shenxiu?

Hahaha!

Shall we say that Shenxiu's verse is that of the mortal starting on his first step of cultivation?

AND, Hui Neng's is that of the Enlightened One?

Just like doing Offering!

One's mindset is a crucial key!

Doing with complete understanding and relevant application of Buddha Dharma, 

OR

Blindly follow the "Flow" or Dictate of others! 

When in doubt, please ask! :)

Hahaha! 

Now, do you realised that [Offering] is more than what most perceived?

And Pure Karma has considered "Affordability" too!

Being a sponsor and having your name announced and getting the glory to preen your feathers?

Not the way to go for an aspiring yogi to be! 

Cheers all.

Mind Development – Sentient Mindset

Terjemahan Indonesia: Pengembangan Pikiran – Pola Pikir Orang Awam

Also read: The three sermons by Bodhidharma:

• 达磨大师 《悟性论》
  Bodhidharma's Wake Up Sermon
• 破相論 Breakthrough Sermon
  达摩大师 《破相论》 白话译文对照
• 达摩大师血脉动论
  Bodhidharma's Bloodstream Sermon

And: Sentient Mindset

Extract:

[--- Dear 莲花净译, why waste time going in circles?
Guru said there is No Good and also No Bad.
To a serious cultivator, NO THOUGHTS!
As explained by Guru, Thoughts are not given opportunity to incite a chain of thoughts; this is to halt all karmic related actions arising from these chains of thoughts.

My humble advice: 

Do not get too fixated about climbing levels in cultivation; 

there are no such levels where Dharma is concern. 

Likewise Titles, are just Sentient classification for convenience only.

There is no need to go chase or follow anyone perceived as having cultivated successfully. What Guru shares is more than enough if you truly and diligently practice.

Hahaha!

Respect Guru; Treasure Dharma; Diligently Cultivate!

This is actually from Guru Rinpoche, Padmasambhava.

Cultivation is for Self, however, without Bodhicitta, one is unable to attain release from Samsara.

This is a special tip: The more you share; the more you understand Dharma! ---]

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

From the student's written statements, we can see that he is going around in circles TRYING very hard to Push Through HIS Views!

Hahaha!

This is yet another that wastes his limited Time in this life on frivolous pursuits of EGO maintenance!

He likes to "Tell" others, what is Right & Wrong too!

He told me that "Fashi, should not watch movies or TV" !

He is also that One that attempted to trick me into using my "powers" to eliminate 2 female ghosts from a flat that he is marketing!

Told me to sit behind him during cultivation to SEE whether he is doing "入定" or Meditation or Enter Samadhi, correctly or not! 

Told me that he will instruct the Dharmapalas guarding his residence to let me in, to check whether he can do "Enter Samadhi" correctly or not! (He said he does cultivation every morning and around 7:30am. he will be at the "Enter Samadhi" stage.)

Told me how to get more "power" faster too! - Articles in this blog like "Speedy way to get power"....

He MUST watch Livecast in real time and not the recorded version!

Well?

From his mindset, has his mind developed or advanced in the Cultivation Ladder?

NO!

He is even MORE Burdened with Sentient Material & Matters, tying himself more firmly or tightly to the Sentient Realm and Samsaric Cycle!

He has also "disappeared" after his opinions are published in this blog and his Facebook account also changed and securely locked by him.

Crazy Wisdom – Rules of the Sentient Game! 凡间之游戏规则！[2]

Terjemahan Indonesia: Kebijaksanaan yang nampak gila – Gaya Aturan Permainan Duniawi! [2]

• 
  

Quoting from Crazy Wisdom – Rules of the Sentient Game! 凡间之游戏规则！:

[--- Some one asked: Can Shi-mu take this kind of Respect Paying?

Remember the story told by Guru of the meeting between Padmasambhava & Trisong Detsen, King of Tibet?

When Padmasambhava bows to Trisong Detsen, the king's clothes caught fire!

So even a King can't take the respect paying from Divine Being! ---]

~~~~~~~~~~

I have stated that Buddha Dharma are ways or methods and as per Avatamsaka or Flower Adornment Sutra, these ways are Infinite or Immeasurable! :)

Can you think of ways to help or advise King Trisong Detsen, so that his clothes won't catch Fire?

The Answers can be found in Avatamsaka Sutra or Zen Patriarch Bodhidharma's teachings as well as many other dharani!

Hahaha!

Yes!

GM's instructions are to help or guide you along a certain Path of Mindset, so that YOUR Mind can gradually develop and focus on awakening or realisation!

So NO Answers will be given before you have a chance to Ponder or Think on the topic at hand.

There are many answers or ways you can go about this topic. 

Have Fun!

** Pure Karma would like to inform All that we only help those that show us that they are sincere & diligent in cultivation!

Cheers all.

顯相有意義嗎？Is there Meaning in Showing Form?

Terjemahan Indonesia: Apakah ada arti di balik Menampilkan Wujud?

Source: 蓮生活佛 > 師尊文集 > 241_遇見本尊 > 顯相有意義嗎？

GM Lu's literary collection > 241  Meeting with Principal Yidam

[--- English Summary Translation by Lotuschef. Readers may choose to do their own translation too! :) ---]

有一天。
有一位大德居士問我：「顯相有意義嗎？」
我答：「有！」
（這是在世俗諦的說法）

One day, a student asked me: Is there meaning to showing form?

I replied: Have!

(This is sentient worldly view-point.)

例如：
我在韓國看到高矗的「藥師琉璃光如來」立相，我向大佛頭面頂禮，繞佛三匝。
在歸途上的三摩地中：
藥師如來顯相。藥王菩薩、藥上菩薩顯相。日光菩薩、月光菩薩顯相。十二藥叉神將顯相。等等等等眷屬顯相。
我心中想：
「我的病會好！」
後來，我的病真的完全痊癒了！

For example: When I was in Korea, I paid homage to Bhaisajyaguru's standing statue and circling it 3 rounds.

On the return trip, as I was in Samadhi, Bhaisajyaguru showed form together with his court and retinue of Boddhisattvas and Dharmapalas.

I think to myself: My illness will be healed!

Later, my illness fully healed!

●

又例如：
我在中國大陸，由北京飛太原，於飛機上，三摩地中，見到阿彌陀佛的金身顯相。
三十二相。
紫金摩尼光。
圓形頭光。
渾身背光。
足下放紅光。
這是我畢生之中，看見阿彌陀佛最是莊嚴的法相了。
我意會到：
「阿彌陀佛將隨我遊歷整個中國大陸，而且護佑我平安吉祥。」
主要的原因是：
「足下放紅光」。

Another example:

When I was flying within Mainland China, from Beijing to Tai Yuan, when in Samadhi on board, I saw Amitabha Buddha showing his golden form.

32 forms. Purplish gold mani light. Rounded crown light. Full body silhouette light. Red light emitted under feet.

This is the most dignified Dharma form of Amitabha Buddha that I have seen in my life.

I perceived that: Amitabha Buddha is accompanying me in touring the whole of Mainland China, and protectively blessing me with safety and auspiciousness.

Then main reason is: Red light emitted under feet.

●

又例如：
「SARS」（煞死）在流行的時候，我的內心非常沉重，唸「大救難咒」。
忽然有一日。在三摩地中。
我看見「瑤池金母大天尊」（仙王），瑤池金母現百寶光明，祂拿了一個白色的小袋子給我。
囑我去救「煞死」。

Another example: 

During the [SARS] epidemic, my heart was very heavy, chanting [Great Calamities Mantra]

Suddenly in Samadhi one day, I saw [Golden Mother of the Yao Pond] the Fairy King, showing lots of precious light, giving me a small white pouch and instructing me to go rescue [SARS].

A Qian-kun pouch

Depiction of Qian Kun Constellation in the universe

我看見白色小袋，遇風變大，如同一個大乾坤袋一般。
白色的小袋子，變成了大乾坤袋，無窮無盡深不可測。
大乾坤袋在虛空中，像「吸心大法」一樣的，把「煞死」的細菌全吸入袋中。
我想：「煞死，就要結束了！」
後來：果然非常神，非常妙，那麼多的細菌，一天之內，全部無影無蹤。

I see the little white pouch enlarged upon meeting with wind, just like a big "Qian-Kun" pouch.

It's capacity is immeasurable and like "Sucking Heart big method", sucked in all [SARS] viruses.

I think: SARS will soon end!

Later: Truly amazing as so much viruses disappeared without trace within a day.

<Qian & Kun, are names of constellation. GM used them here probably means a pouch large enough to bag up the whole universe, including all [SARS] viruses.>

●

我寫了這幾則顯相，證明「顯相不是沒有意義的」。

I wrote this article to show that [Showing form is not meaningless].

親愛的聖弟子：Saintly Students:

一般而言，佛法的形式，有世俗諦的，也有勝義諦的。

Broadly speaking, Buddha Dharma has meaning of worldly and Elemental Truth forms.

我們在世俗諦中，最要緊的是不執不惑，隨它來，隨它去。

In worldly perspective, the most important is Not Fixated Not Confused, let it come or go.

而勝義諦中，我們對「空性」中產生的「顯相」，不去攀執，任其顯，任其隱，只是我們用「明性」去覺之而已。

Whereas in Elemental Truth, our view on [show form] produced when in [Void nature], do not extend fixation, let it show or hide, as long as we use [Understand Nature] to feel it.

重點還是在明白「自心的本質」。
Important point is to Understand [One's own heart's nature].

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

Dear all, 

Note that GM was in Samadhi when he has the the "Sightings"! 

Hahaha!

If you have yet to achieve the Samadhi state with ease, then you are unable to have these "Sightings"!

May 2009 - I remember one such sighting after visiting a Dragon King's temple in Taiwan, near a lake named Dragon King Lake.

Drawn on the walls of the temples are the 8 Fairies and a young version of Golden Mother of the Yao Pond sitting in a "wheel chair" with her attendants beside her. 

I also had a good look at the Dragon King's statue that is a standing upright one.

I get seasick when in small boats, thus I stayed behind and waited for the rest of the group to return from the lake cruise! :)

Hehe! 

I sat talking to the Dragon King!

On board the tour-bus after leaving the temple, I started to cultivate.

In Samadhi, Dragon King appeared together with the 8 fairies and Golden Mother.

Then a temple with 8 fairies circling on top and Golden Mother within appeared.

The whole scene was full of golden light.

~~~~~~~

24 August 2008 - While chanting High King Avalokitesvara Sutra, I saw a rice-coloured lotus with 8 petals started to bloom and radiating great light. 

That is 3 weeks or 21 days from 3 August 2008; after taking refuge with GM Lu.

31 August 2008 - While chanting 100 syllable mantra, a mid-night blue coloured lotus also bloom and radiating great light too.

GM Lu gave the debut transmission of Hevajra in Seattle, later that day.

Note that the lotuses bloomed SEVEN days apart! :)

Hahaha! 

Still remember that GM said the chakras "opened" 7 days apart?

Multiples of SEVEN!

~~~~~~~~

I sincerely hope that all will take note of what GM shares and cultivate with diligence adhering to GM Lu's teachings or instructions.

I also hope that all steer clear of those that have yet to achieve Guru Yoga and churn their own misguided version or interpretation of GM Lu's statements.

Cheers all.

Fakes of Guru? [3]

What did Guru said on 22-12-2012? 

2012年12月22日聖尊蓮生活佛開講「喜金剛法要義」-台灣雷藏寺

{DD: Actually his statement nullified or can be said to oppose what Shimu had stated in her opening speech.

He also said: Huijun, no need to tell me, and so with others, I don't want to hear that. My eyes don't see, my ears don't hear, my mouth doesn't speak. That's a good standard for spiritual cultivator. I live with great mastery and am very happy.
Anything is fine, anyone is fine, that is the attitude of spiritual cultivator.

Ahahaha, then your pointing of Dualism is the most correct, although the article no.1 is quite deep. They really need to ponder and think to digest the idea within.

Today you re-share the one from Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche about attaining realisation before trying to benefit others - is a true supporting statement for all of these. 
[A Good Reason to Cultivate]
People who haven't achieved yoga with their guru really don't have whatsoever idea about the way their guru thinks.

Guru has given obvious and clear pointers on "how to deal with mundane problems" if they do listen attentively, really!


I mean if Guru thinks of not caring about the troublesome matters, it is also his instruction on how to deal with it.
If the Sista and Brotha only consider the statement as a mere suggestion, then it really is up to them. It shows the level of wisdom of the individuals in the movement.

Cheers all.}

Think: A delusion is a belief held with strong conviction despite superior evidence to the contrary.[1] Unlike hallucinations, delusions are always pathological (the result of an illness or illness process).[1] As a pathology, it is distinct from a belief based on false or incomplete information, confabulation, dogma, illusion, or other effects of perception.

Delusions typically occur in the context of neurological or mental illness, although they are not tied to any particular disease and have been found to occur in the context of many pathological states (both physical and mental). However, they are of particular diagnostic importance in psychotic disorders including schizophrenia, paraphrenia, manic episodes of bipolar disorder, and psychotic depression.

[Quoted from Wikipedia – Delusion]

I concur that Dualism and the Middle Path is not simple and easy to understand. :)

However, One's heart demon created something called in medical context, Delusion!
