昔日，經過商家，看見店家門口，很多家都貼有一符，此符是印刷品，紅色的紙，黑色的字，非常工整，也即是日日見財。
符式是 (見圖右)
[A common talisman pasted on shops' doors are printed with black ink on red-colored paper. It is very neat and tidy and means (See Wealth every day).
Shown on the right of above picture.]
這符一看，就知道是把日日見財，四個字組合成一個字，是字，也是符。
但大家要知道，印刷品的符，如同用唱片唸佛，有符無心，有聲無心，這種印刷品的符，不具任何效力。
除非請來大法師，以法力加持，這種印刷品的符才有效果。
[These talismans lack effectiveness as they are printed products and unless the services of a big master is used to bless them, they have no effect at all.]
畫符，有一句話說的好：
「若知畫符妙，惹得鬼神驚；不知畫符妙，惹得鬼神笑。」
Talisman drawing has a good saying:
[If know uniqueness of talisman drawing, incite fear in spirits and deities;
If don't know the uniqueness of talisman drawing, incite spirits and deities to laugh or jeer.]
畫符在於一心。
Talisman drawing is dependent upon One's heart.
神心。
Divine heart.
畫符者的心。
Talisman drawer's heart.
求符者的心。
Talisman Requester's heart.
(這三心合一心，符才會靈)
(Combination of 3 hearts as one, then talisman will be effective)
有一弟子說：
「請盧師尊畫一符，我拿去印刷，再請師尊加持，然後分派給左鄰右舍。」
「請盧師尊畫一符，我拿去印刷，再請師尊加持，然後分派給左鄰右舍。」
我說：
「左鄰右舍，如果無心請符，而硬給一符，這符是沒有效的。」
I said: left and right neighbors, if not sincere in requesting talisman, and forcefully give them one, this talisman has no effect.
所以：
求符的人。
畫符的人。
過往的神明。
這都是靈驗的要素，缺一不可。
Therefore, talisman requester, talisman drawer, deities in passing presence, are the essence of talisman's effectiveness, can't miss any one.

所謂過往的神明，也就是畫符者請來的神明，祂有沒有，下降佈光？
有則善也。
無則不驗。
如此而己！
我有一符：(見圖左)

I have one talisman ( see left side of picture shown above)
咒曰：Chant mantra as:
「拜請蓮生活佛，大福金剛大無比，威靈顯十方，主宰人間增福事，運來東南西北一切財。
Requesting presence of Living Buddha Lian Sheng, Invincible Great Auspicious Vajra, Prowess spread over 10 directions, in charge of auspicious enhancement matters in human realm, transporting in all wealth from East South West North.
日日財，月月財，年年財，五路五方財，有財來，無財去，急急如律令。
Daily wealth, Monthly wealth, Yearly wealth, 5 routes 5 directions wealth, have wealth come, no wealth leave, execute immediately.」
此符燒金紙時，符可一起燒化。
佩身亦可。
This talisman can burn with incense paper or wear upon self.
這道符，非常的祕密，我平時不隨便給予，因為須要觀察求符者：
是善人。
有善光。
帶天福。
帶財祿。

由於一時困頓，我才給此符，開啟了天上的寶庫，賜福給這個人。
偈曰：Verse:
蓮生賜財來。
Lian Sheng bestows wealth.
善人增光彩。
Good people increase bright colourful shine.
行善兼佈施。
Doing good deeds and Dana.
[Dana - The practice of generosity or charity: One of the Paramitas as well as one of the All Embracing Virtues, where it means, in the latter, giving others what they want just to lead them towards the truth.]
佛法存心懷。
Buddha Dharma stored within one's heart or breast.

Dear all,
Try and bear in mind GM Lu's verse at the end of the above article.
Think: Do you need any talisman to enhance your wealth?
Hahaha!
If you are following the path through Maha Perfection, don't walk backwards to Mindset of Possession of Sentient Forms!
Break Through and Break Free, please!
Cheers all.
