安定Inner Stability

安定

 

昨天寫出的故事,

激勵了另外一個也是悲苦中的媽媽,

人體的不方便,不管是在腦或身體,對其他家人造成的負擔不言而喻!

 

我寫的緩一緩:

「不要太心急,

這種已經是事實的事,

要扭轉他,並不容易。」

 

輪迴不只是苦而已,輪迴也是一種賦予重生的希望,

如果這一輩子的努力,可以再造就下一輩子的成就,甚至於是往前走的明天,

那想法就不一樣了,

 

一定要記住佛法的業障不是原罪,

它是可以被自己的行動改造的。

 

根據我個人的觀察,

人體在想要成就某些事的時候,操勞過度,

把精神跟肉體的能量都耗盡,

導致身體已經不堪負荷,這個不要說過去的生命,現在肉眼看得見的事實也是這樣,

 

而個人的認知錯誤,做出錯誤的抉擇,也決定了自己的生命前途,

但有誰可以完全自我肯定,都是睿智的,總做出正確的決定?

 

所以認識佛法,應該是讓我們有智慧去承認錯誤,再讓自己重生,去展現人的價值。

Inner Stability

 

The story I wrote yesterday inspired another suffering mother.

When the body or mind is impaired, the burden on the family is undeniable.

 

I told her:

Don’t be too anxious.

What has already happened

is not easy to change.”

 

Samsara is not only suffering—it also offers the hope of renewal.

If our efforts in this life can shape a better next life—or even a better tomorrow,

our perspective will change.

 

Karma in Buddhism is not original sin.

It can be transformed through our actions.

 

From my observation,

people often exhaust themselves—mentally and physically—while pursuing goals,

until the body can no longer endure.

This is evident not only about past lives but also in this life.

 

Misunderstanding and poor judgment leads to poor choices,

and these choices shape our future.

But no one is always wise enough to make the right decisions

 

Therefore, learning the Dharma gives us the wisdom to admit mistakes,

renew ourselves,

and realize our human potential.

母親節快樂Happy Mother’s Day

 母親節快樂🎉


南禪基金會執行長郭芳純,傳給我一段她提供給廣播電台的錄音檔,

錄音檔中提到她的朋友ㄧ位老師,每天凌晨三點起來幫她的小孩按摩,
因為醫生說:小孩有萎縮症。

清晨各自要上班、上課,小孩的外婆陪伴她去學校的課堂上課,照顧飲食,還有大小便的問題,
這種辛苦是外人不能體會的。

這小女生在青春期的時候,我去成大醫院看過她一次,
看完跟她媽媽說:她這種病可能渡不過青春期,

她媽媽聽完跟我說:醫生也這麼說。

結果她脫離那一次危機以後,現在念到成大航太系的博士班。

當媽媽的每天淩晨3點起來,幫她的女兒按摩這件事,很久前聽過!
再聽一次,還是感動不已,
這2位媽媽太偉大了!

奇蹟都是人的意志力創造出來的,
祝福天下母親👩母親節快樂🎁🎉🎉

Happy Mother’s Day 
🎉

 

Fangchun Guo, Executive Director of the NanZen Foundation, shared with me a recording she had made for a radio station.

 

In it, she spoke about her friend, who wakes up at 3 a.m. every day to massage her child because the child has a degenerative illness.

 

In the early morning, both mother and child have to go to work and school. The grandmother goes with the girl to class, helping with her meals and daily care. This kind of hardship is very hard for others to understand.

 

I once visited this girl at Cheng Kung University Hospital when she was a teenager. After seeing her, I told her mother that she might not survive puberty.

 

Her mother replied, “That’s what the doctors have said as well.”

 

However, she survived that critical period. Now, she is pursuing a PhD in Aerospace Engineering at Cheng Kung University.

 

I had heard about the mother waking up at 3 a.m. to massage her daughter before. Hearing it again still deeply touches me. These two mothers are truly amazing.

 

Miracles come from strong human willpower.

Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers 🎁🎉🎉

請大家看電影Let’s Watch a Movie Together

 請大家看電影:


純德社長最近退休了!
很努力地在找一些大眾易懂得的話題。

「他說:我說過下面這句話。而我其實也忘記了!😆
我個人很佩服日本人的寓教於樂,佛法都被他們藏在這些電影裏。」

師父說過,一般人不知道前世是保護機制。

Let’s Watch a Movie Together

 

Our president, Chun-De, has just retired.

He is trying hard to find topics that are easy for everyone to understand.

 

He said, “I once said this before—but I’ve already forgotten it! 😆

I really admire how Japanese people teach through entertainment. Many ideas of Buddhism are hidden in their movies.”

 

Master (Banji) once said that not knowing our past lives is actually a kind of protection.

 

Learning through entertainment—

even the idea of having “no mouth”—

is, in fact, rooted in ancient Indian culture and was spread by Buddhist practitioners.

 

Master Banji








寓教於樂

沒有嘴巴,
其實也是印度自己的古老文化,由佛教的修行者傳播出去。

AI Data:

 

1. Fourth Dhyāna Heaven

 In the “Heaven of No Thought,” beings stop using their six senses. Only a very small amount of consciousness remains. They show no emotions, do not speak, and have no desire for food. That is why they are described as having “no mouth.”

 

2. The Four Dhyānas

These meditation states were very important in ancient India. They were practiced not only in Buddhism but also in other religions. So, they are better understood as shared meditation levels rather than simple beliefs.

 



AI摘要

1.四禪天。

• 特性: 無想天是四禪天中的一種特例,這些天人因修習「無想定」,使其前六識(眼、耳、鼻、舌、身、意)停止運作,僅剩下微細的意識存在,外表無喜怒哀樂、無語言對話,處於一種無思想、無飲食欲望的狀態,因此常被形容為「沒有嘴巴」的樣子。


2.四禪天(或稱四禪八定)確實是古印度宗教信仰中極為核心的修行內容,但稱之為「最基本信仰」需要區分宗教信仰的層次,更準確地說,它是古印度修行者(包括佛教、婆羅門教、耆那教等)所共有的「核心修行境界」。
