(English version below)
財，是有其魔力的。因此，很多很多人自甘被它，迷了心竅而多世，苦輪中求出無期。有位女客人，在還未認识吾時，就已是不折不扣的，財迷心竅之人。
但，那是還未認识吾之前。和她較熟落之後，吾就嘗試用吾那不靈光的英語，順序淺進的教於她，佛法，玄學，神明的供奉，以及諸多的正確價值觀，希望她不要因爲，這世俗間不淨的東西，而失去其人身，也留下了後患，殃及其家人。參修佛法之人皆知，拜神並非正道。因有像皆幻，無像則爲实。实則眞悟，幻則迷執。所以佛門襌宗，不立像是也。
近日有這福氣，受其邀請爲其寓所，公司等等服務，吾更確定這位查謀，胡亂拜神。比方說，吾請妳你來吾家做客，卻把妳你安頓在，逼迫的角落，又或者把妳你安頓在，面嚮厕所處，妳你會覺得賓至如帰嗎? 跟着吾递上半杯的茶水，及連小朋友都吃不飽的糕點，妳你會覺得吾是大方的嗎?
答案是心照不宣的呀！諸天的神明，好些還是有祂們的特喜供品。除此之外，供奉神明的神龕或神桌尺寸，應供奉何神明，供奉神明的器俱用品等等，都是學問啊! 馬虎不得，馬虎不得。吾，玳瑚師父，憐憫這女客人以外，也再次闡示於有緣眾生，不可胡亂拜神，以免造成多怪的命途，多怪的家庭事故，那就非常不好也不妙了。

Wealth does has its magic. Thus many many people willingly lose themselves in it and are unable to break free from the endless sufferings of many lifetimes. There was a female client who, before knowing me, is without doubt a slave to money.
That was before she knew me. As I got more familiar with her, with my unaccomplished English, I tried to teach her in proper sequence, the Dharma, Chinese Metaphysics, the proper etiquette of making offerings to the Deities, as well as the right values, in hope that she will not lose her human form and implicate her family over her non-virtuous pursuit in this secular world. All practising Buddhists know that praying to the deities is not the proper path in Buddhism. Because all form is illusory. All form-less is the immutable truth. The latter is true enlightenment while the former will lead to attachment. That is the reason why Zen Buddhism is form-less.
Recently, I had the good fortune to be of service to this female client, performing Feng Shui audit for her residence and office etc, and it made me even more sure that this client does not have the right praying etiquette. For example, if I invite you to your home, but seat you in a tight corner, or facing the toilet, do you think you will feel welcomed? And if I go on to serve you half a cup of tea, and snacks that can barely feed a child, will you think that I am generous?
You and I both know the answer. The many deities still have their own likings and preferences when it comes to offerings. Beside that, factors like the dimensions of the altar, which deity to pray to, the different types of offerings and wares to use, etc, are deep knowledge! You cannot afford to be careless! You cannot opt to be sloppy!
Beside compassion for this female client, Master Dai Hu once again highlight this to all sentient beings: Do not pray carelessly, with no proper etiquette, so as not to invite peculiar happenings into your life and family. That would be greatly disastrous.
