Authentic Tantric Dharma? 真正的密法?




Referring to the recorded sermon:
2018-03-24聖尊蓮生活佛盧勝彥法王主持「長壽三尊 護摩大法會」暨講授密乘《道果》



Hahaha! 
At this juncture of GM Lu's speech, he affirmed that XX don't know Tantrayana!

Remember XX claimed that she went around a lake with bell & dorje to purify water creatures in that lake upon the invitation of some such creatures living in the lake?
She said that she spent more than 4 hours labouring with the bell & dorje to cleanse the water creatures while cruising round the lake!
I said she didn't know Tantra dharma at all! 
WHY?
Because I shared with the then reverend LL to write a HOM seed syllable in the sky then beam light on to it. The HOM then lights up and where ever the light touches, all air sea land creatures will get cleanse!
This takes less than a minute to execute! 

In his speech on 24 March 2018 in Caotun temple, GM Lu shared XX's story of her going to a mess graveyard and cry and then XX called out to Emperor Shun-zhi, saying your guru, myself, came late, sorry for leaving you here all these years, I will bring you back to LA with me!

GM Lu said if XX has true supernatural powers, she will know that Emperor Shun-zhi & his guru are already in the Eastern paradise!
Also, if XX knows TRUE or Authentic Tantric dharma, all she needs to do is to draw Emperor Shun-zhi into vision and settle him into a better place!!!

YES! 
Tantric Dharma is simple, swift and effective to execute for the True Yogi!

Now, believe my words that XX truly don't know Tantric Dharma???

I wrote about drawing [subjects] seeking help into vision & execute accordingly, remember? 
Ask the subjects that I have so far helped, am I effective or bluffing!!!

自净其意 Self realised the meaning




How many really understand what GM Lu is teaching at all?
Please do not take the words of those that have yet to achieve Guru Yoga as Authentic Buddha Dharma! :)

For those that proclaimed that All your actions are that of protecting Root Guru & a school named TBS, hahaha!

Does your Root Guru, a Living Buddha needs your Protection in the first place?

Many of you think to measure a Living Buddha with your sentient minded deductions!

How many of you really understand the meaning of 因果自负 Bear own's karma?

Today's homa yidam is Mahabala yet again!
Honestly ask yourself, have you benefited from the Cleansing by this Yidam recently in KL?
Well, this is yet another chance that Root Guru compassionately attempts to help you Purify!

Drop all you fixated minds and get cleanse!

Buddha dharma is meant to be learned, analysed and use!

So how much you can purify and understand Buddha Dharma is solely dependent on yourself being honest and change or drop your own unwholesome habits!

自主生死?Determine One's Own Destiny?


Terjemahan Bahasa: Mengendalikan Takdirmu Sendiri?


Referring to the recorded sermon:
2017年10月29日聖尊蓮生活佛盧勝彥開講「道果」-彩虹雷藏寺

In the above session, GM Lu talks about many that came forward for Purification after being victims of XX!
Also the VM that is still mentally unstable now, and he has been so for more than 20 years.

So all these years, no one caught wind of what XX is doing to fellow students and public too, who seek her services!

One of Buddha's basic key is to cultivate and be able to Determine One's own destiny!

So many VMs and their families fell victims to XX and even the little living buddha, Ksiti Rinpoche!

It is also obvious that all these years, management of TBS affairs by a group of VMs under an Administrative Team, is just not effective at all!
Even those in Admin fell prey to XX's practices!

And it can be said that if GM Lu continues to keep quiet about XX, more will get harm.

VMs can't even execute purification to clean themselves?
Thats why no one approach any of them for purification?

As per GM Lu, many continues to come forward for purification from all over the world!

XX placed Ghosts-tablets or plaques on altars all over the world and visiting masters all not aware of them.
Proved that all these supposed to be Dharma teachers, Vajra-masters, are Fakes!
Most VMs are preaching, I can and you can't, so pay me to do it for you! 

GM Lu has taught Purification Practices for decades and yet the massive damages done by XX seems endless.

GM Lu said that Marici boddhisattva has vowed to clear all the ghosts away soon. 

I think this probably will have the same outcome as the 31 Dec 2016 session, with Mahabala as the yidam. 
XX re-invoked the ghosts or revived them!

And in this same session, GM Lu asked why some still following XX after the revelation of XX's worship of ghosts and the harm they caused.
So, can Marici completely clear away all ghosts kept by XX?

If TBS admin had made sure of a high standard of Dharma Cultivation, those like XX can't even get a foot in!

Ah! But the final fault lies with each individual who chose to believe the XXs of this world!

Learn Buddha dharma well before you start to cultivate.
Else you will be in grave danger of harming self.
Armour & Boundary Protection?
Can you effectively do this?

追佛追魔 Chasing Buddha Chasing Demon



In 2010 April, GM returned to Taiwan, purportedly for Long Stay in Taiwan.
People got too much or pushy in Seattle! :)

Sometime in October 2009, an incident cause our GM to hit hard on the dining table and said that he don't like this Ghost Place鬼地方, he will sell everything in Seattle and return to stay permanently in Taiwan!

Incident: VM LF need certification from Core or Temple's Abbot to give a letter stating she needs Visa for longer stay in USA.
Night before Incident, GM asked VM LF for status of her Visa Application.
GM also said she can get help from ...... & .....

Next evening at dinner, GM again asked VM LF has she settled the application requirement.
She said not yet as she needs a letter from TBS' admin or Temple's Abbot.

At this instant, Temple's abbot, TH, sat down to dinner with GM.

GM said to VM LF, asked TH.

TH said without looking at LF & GM: I am having dinner and don't do work!
This is a very obvious and rude manner towards One's Root Guru!

GM stood up and hit the table hard and then stated that he will leave Seattle for Good and Never Return!

All present ran after GM, and most of them crying and begging GM to not leave Seattle for good.

Upon his return to Taiwan [April 2010], GM started to visit all chapters to do Purification Practice to help cleanse & purify all students.
This is as per White Tara's statement [GM wrote in his book - Sword of the Yogi] that to save all those students from VMs to lay-students from the 3 Lower realms; Purification Practice is the One.

So every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, GM will visit 2 chapters each day.
Giving Dharma Speech and Abhiseka.

This is how the 追佛 Chase Buddha event came about.

There were lots of interesting happenings during this "ERA". :)
All the pushing and shoving of others aside to get close to GM were very very interesting, in that all forgotten that they are Buddha's disciples!

All forget or never ever know that Buddha's students DO NOT NEED ANYTHING 无所求!


Today's topic?
Sexual Misconduct!
One of 5 major precepts!

Yes!

There is this male student, M, that actively followed GM around.
He is married with 2 children and his wife is the sole bread-winner.
However, he left the care of his kids and started to chase Buddha from April 2010.

I met his family once during this chase Buddha activities.
Pretty and dignified wife he has.

What's my point?

Well, I saw M "got married" with GM solemnising his marriage to another student during an event!

In the process of chasing Buddha, M discarded his family and hooked on to or being hooked by a woman with Hell written on her face! [地狱相]- Aura of Hell.

GM has this article from Book 235: King of Hell is at your back. From Page 98.


In this article, GM said the Hell King is standing behind this student, who has Terminal stage cancer.
GM asked why not Amitabha Buddha come and fetch this student but the Hell King himself?
Hell King replied: Karmic negative too heavy 业障太重.

GM said to the student to chant High King Avalokitesvara Sutra.
The student replied that he don't know how to chant.

GM can only give him talisman for cancer and hope for the best.


Dear all,
Your Karmic influences determined your fate, to Hell or to Pureland!

If you think chasing Buddha & being near Buddha will nullify or void your Karmic negative deeds, WAKE UP!

Karma is always One's Own!

For M, he dumped his family and dropped into Hell!

Yes! M & his new spouse's auras very clearly written!

GM said being near me but don't cultivate diligently is very very far from me!

Bear these golden words in mind!


Cheers all

Discover Wondrous Avatamsaka Sutra 华严经

Terjemahan Indonesia: Avatamsaka Sutra yang Menakjubkan

John Leech Sketch from Punch 1848

Hahaha!

This sutra is a very long one indeed.

However, many shunted this one because it is too long?

Not absolutely true!

Most sentient beings have Gigantic EGO!

They never admit to being ignorant and even lying to Boost these EGO!

Commonly called : FACE 脸!

死要脸 - means die also want Face. That is Want to maintain this Face to the End! :)

A student said: I haven't find time to read it.
Another said: I don't understand so I stop reading it.


Dear all, 
like the Trick I taught you when you don't understand Shizun's statements; you can ask Shizun to teach you and guide you, by invoking Shizun's presence first and make your request, then you chant SZ's mantra as much as possible.
Actually, you can do 10 rounds of the 108 beads or until you feel a lightness & brightness like you have been fully charged! 

Then you can proceed to listen or read SZ's statements or you can ask for help from SZ for any text or video of Buddha Dharma that you wish to learn.

YES!
When you do this, you actually Trust your Root Guru Absolutely to guide you Astrally!

To name this scenario: You are walking In Step with your Root Guru along the Bodhi Path, with his meticulous caring guidance and his sharing of Buddha's wisdom.

The next scenario: You achieved Guru Yoga!!! :)

Simple?

Now how to really appreciate Guru's sharing and also sutra like the Avatamsaka?

You need to start by Purifying Self!

Pure Karma's method for cultivation begins with 3 Deep Breaths, with appropriate visualization.
We have these published in English, Chinese and Bahasa Indonesia.
Please go Media Centre in this blog.


Read the Reviews for Avatamsaka Sutra in this blog too!

You are taking a leisurely journey with SZ and all beings in Discovery of the Flower Adornment World 华严世界.

Leisurely means you throw away sentient suffering of worries and unwholesome thoughts! 

Journey of Discovery means you are to have FUN as well!

The sutra started with a grand Universal Celebration of Sakyamuni Buddha's Enlightenment!

I am sharing Book 38 now, which is 离世间品 - Leaving the sentient world book.

This one shares with those with True Affinity, the very basic and also ultimate concept of Buddhahood!

O! there is no need to memorize them at all.

Just read and tell yourself: O! this is the mindset, ah.

If you are truly sincere and diligent, these concepts will surface when you need them in your daily life! 

Yes. These concepts and scenarios will get enscripted into your Heart or Mind! :)

Don't force yourself to understand if you can't at first reading. 
Read it again at a later date or ask someone or discuss with someone.

You always have SZ to back you up too! :)

Now I am also willing to help you if you are asking genuine questions.
Of course, I might not be able to fully explain in detail certain sutra too!

So your best choice is SZ! 

Don't let EGO keep you forever in Ignorance! 


Cheers all.

Lotuschef at Play – Hearing Right? 听对了吗?[2]



These pictures are taken at Zhong Tai Zen Monastery in Puli, Taiwan.

A True Architectural Marvel and as per the Monastery's tour guides, Ideas were given by Divinities to their Abbot.
This in Tantrayana means YOGA!

If you remember SZ's speeches or vital parts of them, you would be able to achieve Guru Yoga in a very short time from diligently cultivating what he shares. :)

SZ announced recently that a student started less than a year ago and this student has chakra spinning and lighting up!

So [YOU CAN REALLY DO IT TOO!]

Hahaha! If you still say to yourself that [I AM NOT READY], then your hindrance is yourself or the demon in your heart, given life by yourself.

Today's point is Meditation or Samadhi.

From this blog, I shared many tips on Samadhi. :)

SZ said during Kalachakra event in Singapore and elsewhere, that the Method that you can achieve Samadhi is the BEST method for YOU!

He also said that at a certain stage you can Execute at Will 任运自如.


Recently, SZ said there are immeasurable variations that you can achieve in Cultivation.

Know what SZ means? :)

Now some Dharma Propagators tell  you that in Samadhi, everything is void and dark!
Some tell you that only they can and you can't.
Some tell you "What they think, Samadhi is", from books or videos they have read or watch!

Recently, a VM Lian Wang told SZ that he was in "Cloudless Fine Sky" 无云晴空, and was scared and stopped the session immediately.
Later SZ said that this Scene is Universal Void!

Go hear what SZ has to say further on this VM's problem!

Now, the recent Purification Visualization Methods, 4 in total that SZ shares, of using the HOM seed syllable, what do you think of it?
How can you use it to enhance your cultivation?

In Meditation, One has to clear "garbage" in One's mind.
SZ taught a method of Using One Thought to Eliminate Another!

By Concentrating on Visualizing a Hom and then more of them, pasting them onto people and objects around you, you are actually training yourself to CONCENTRATE ON ONE!

As you can successfully control or Trained your mind to Concentrate on ONE, you can easily drop the One and enters Meditative state or Samadhi, whereby you have merge or yoga with a chosen yidam!

I also share "Lojong" or Mind Training information in this blog, please go refer to them too!

O! Perhaps you also have read that I wrote about Samadhi is actually the short gap of time between Conscious & Unconsciousness. Means between Awake & Asleep.

SZ also mentioned this recently, did you picked up this piece of knowledge?

When anyone tell you something like the examples I gave above about Samadhi, they have yet to achieve Samadhi themselves!

Listen to SZ only then you won't go wrong, when you are a beginner.

As you go along, you will slowly grasp what SZ is telling you and you can then compare with what others said and you can then learn Discernment and Safeguard yourself against Liars & Cheats or Fakes!


Cheers all.

Lotuschef at Play – SZ's Words or Yours?

Terjemahan Indonesia: Lotuschef Bermain-main – Kata-kata Guru atau Darimu?



Extract from Lotuschef in Chat – Spiritual Realm Negotiation 灵界谈判:

[--- Hahaha! While doing the translation of SZ's latest on the Purification Methods, I found a Summary in Chinese in TBS official website, it is written by a VM.
Thinking to use it and translate, I found to my Horror that it is inaccurate and Key Points are omitted or left out!
This is written dated 20-1-2014, 2 days after SZ's speech! ---]


That's not all that is shockingly wrong!

The title of this article too!

口清淨 - means Clean mouth or Speech.

【TBSN最新】2014年1月18日蓮生活佛盧勝彥主持「準提佛母護摩法會」開示大圓滿口訣--口清淨

接著,蓮生法王繼續開示「大圓滿法口訣部--口清淨
一個行者無論再微小的事情都要細心的做好,但要如何清淨自己與環境呢?蓮生法王提到四種以「吽」字(ཧཱུྃ)的修持口訣--

四種「口清淨」的方法:
一、 行者觀想心際蓮花開放,內立有一藍色的「吽」字(ཧཱུྃ),此時行者口輕聲唸「吽、吽、吽…」,觀想藍吽字從右鼻孔出,藍吽字由小變大,藍吽字變多,佈滿房子的牆壁四周、家人身上,再向外推展至整個山河大地…,甚至整個地球,全部佈滿藍色吽字。

然後,再將外在所有藍色的「吽」字,一一從左鼻孔吸回,行者自身充滿藍色吽字,最後再將自身內在與環境外在世界,用力大聲唸一藍色大吽字,
全部變成藍色的光,內在、外在全部清淨。

This last part means [As all transformed into Blue-color Light, Internal and External All Become Clean].


The writer of this article is not doing a Truthful reporting of SZ's speech, agree?

Purification as per SZ is to Cleanse or Purify [Body Speech & Mind]!
The writer wrote as purification of the Mouth/Speech only!

Just like SZ always stressed on 3 main factors of Cultivation being [ Mudra - Body; Mantra - Speech; Visualization - Mind]. So meticulously doing all 3 will Cleanse One to cultivate!

I remember the day of my maiden Dharma Speech, 7 November 2009, in Seattle, SZ talks about Interpretation and Translation and their varying degree of Accuracy.

However, this is not TRANSLATION!

Doing an honest and accurate summary of SZ's speech in Chinese, the language that SZ uses, does not require Translation skills, as it is same language!

SZ said before that when you have not attain Buddhahood, don't give your opinion or advice. As you will misdirect or mislead others, resulting in worsening matters!

That is Don't Know, Don't Act/Pretend to Know!


Dear all, now understand why I stress to all TO LISTEN TO ONE'S ROOT GURU ONLY, & NO ONE ELSE!

Hahaha!

Yes! The Statements, 22 September, alleged to be from SZ on TBS' official website too!

Best to make sure there are video recording of SZ's speeches or from SZ's writing, before you can rely upon and learn from!


Cheers all.

Food – Purify First or Offer First? [2]


Terjemahan Bahasa: Makanan – Dikuduskan Terlebih Dahulu Ataukah Dipersembahkan Terlebih Dahulu? [2]



The article 'Food - Purify first or Offer First?' ~ This subject is a reverend, therefore, I presented Guru's take on this issue, attached below.



[--- The view of Tantric Buddhism is that all Buddhas are beings abiding in the mind of non-discrimination. Therefore, in the eyes of the Buddhas, wine and meat are not seen as wine and meat. 

A practitioner with actual attainment will transform the wine into nectar, and the meat into cleansed food. 

As he delivers the souls of the slaughtered animals, there is no danger of misbehaviour in consuming wine and meat.

A practitioner who has no spiritual stamina will drink wine until he is drunk, and consume meat out of gluttony. He has breached a major precept in Tantric Buddhism, and has created a heavy karma for himself, which would draw him to the Vajra Hell upon his death.

On the surface, both scenarios may appear similar, but they are separated by the polarities of purity and impurity! ---]


[--- Consuming vegetarian meals in itself has its merits, but it is not a definite key to attaining buddhahood. 

If taking vegetarian meals by itself could lead to buddhahood, horses, cows and sheep would have long attained enlightenment!

But any meal-eating practitioner must purify their meat by `blowing a gust of air` and reciting the Manjusri Deliverance Mantra. 

This is applying the Tantric method to deliver the souls of the animals, transforming the meal into purified food. 

Upon offering merits to the soul of the animal whose meat is to be consumed, the meat can thus be eaten. 

This is because when you have extended your compassion and delivered the soul, there exists no bond of negative karmic affinity between you and the animal soul. ---]


Please read also: 内供养/ 外供养 Internal & External Offering


[--- This is applying the Tantric method to deliver the souls of the animals, transforming the meal into purified food. ---]


Hahaha! This is Guru's answer. The reverend did not understand why we have to do bardo delivery of animals & etc. " to purified the food, before offering to the Buddhas within".

Therefore the reverend should not volunteer the answer that : [DL: Of course Fo pusa (Buddhas and Boddhisattvas) must eat before have strength to work (do deliverance)!].

I sincerely hope that no one put the same question to me again, even if the same reverend happens to eat within your sight and then do the purification after his/her Fo Puja have strength to do work!

This actually also tell us that this person is not a true yogi and not listening to Guru or try to find out what is Guru's take on this matter at all. Once a student asked a reverend a question, sometimes it might be Guru wanting the reverend to learn the correct method and not transmit the erroneous baseless information to fellow students.

My point is the students concern sometimes want to find fault because I am a new recruit whereas this reverend DL, has been a reverend for more years than me. Like students said that I am not doing White matter chanting the way the other reverends have been doing for long time!

Hahaha! I wish to inform all those that think this way, that [White matter chanting has a Standardise version taught by Seattle and Taiwan Temples], and the ones that were done by those reverends that have been doing for a long time, are Personal Versions of their own. Also most of them DID NOT attend training at either temples.

As I have advised repeatedly, have a good look at those reverends and compare them with Guru. Why some had white matter chanting done, but still hanging around?

In Guru's words: These students have yet to yoga with me.

When you can't invoke Guru's presence, what you do is frivolous and a waste of resources and in certain situations, YOU, can be considered as a Religious Cheat!

In Tantrayana, one can cultivate swiftly upwards and also downwards very swiftly, bear this in mind please.

Guru said he likes to read. We all have to constantly find answers for ourselves too.

Cheers all. The answer as per Guru is Purify Food First!

Lotuschef in Conversation – Tainted Food


Terjemahan Bahasa: Lotuschef Bercakap-cakap – Makanan Tercemar

Rouleau des Etres Affamés, Collection of Kyoto National Museum

I wrote about the Truth of Tainted Food.

Y, a friend of mine, that can communicate with spirits, told me last March when we were dining that she often get put off the food in front of her because she can see spirits eating them and leaving saliva and sometimes even mucus on the food.

M, the little girl that has her sibling’s spirit in her, can’t see these. However, she told me that she gets put off her the food that she ordered with much appetite and when these food is served, she somehow didn’t want to eat anymore.

She can somehow sense that the food is tainted with secretions from spirits?

Well, back to our great Monk!

He told me I am not to eat with fellow students as what they touched become Tainted Food!

Well, students complaint that he wants to eat first and halted them when they reach for the food when they are served. He said he has to eat first or be serve first!

Being so high & mighty, he forgot that Guru teaches “Om Ah Hom”, can cleanse anything!

Maybe he has no confidence of drawing light with “Om Ah Hom” to cleanse the food?

Guru also taught us Manjusri’s Deliverance Mantra to cleanse the food and also offer to all Divinities and share with all beings of the 6 realms through transformation into anything their hearts desire.

My point is whatever we learn, we have to also use them, agree? :)

Question:

Is Monk that clean & pure that he consider all others to be lowly and will taint his food upon contact?

Why then did he accept others invitation to a free meal?

Apply your knowledge of Buddha Dharma now.

Does he know what a Buddha truly sees in all sentient beings?

Does he really know some fundamentals of Buddha Dharma and practise them?

AH! O! 😊

In Tantrayana’s cultivation, Bodhicitta is the Final Key to Buddhahood.

Bodhicitta is to put others in Priority and self way behind!

Now understand why I said Monk has no Bodhicitta?

I am analysing to share how to use the 8 Fold paths.

Well, Monk is a good example to explain a point only.

This is without prejudice!

Food – Purify First or Offer First?




Also read:

LJ noticed during mealtime in-flight that DL did mandala offering first then deliverance to purify offering.

LJ asked DL why she did not purify the food first before offering.

DL: Of course Fo pusa (Buddhas and Boddhisattvas) must eat before have strength to work (do deliverance)!

Hahaha!

What is GM's take on this issue?

From the 2 articles above, let us explore and see whether we can help LJ find answers.

I have read other articles that GM has written on this topic too.

Please share if you have more on this topics.

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.
