"อีกห้าปี มันจะต่างจากตอนนี้มากเลย"
เมื่อวานบอกคนใกล้ตัวไปแบบนั้น, ห้าปีเป็นช่วงเวลาสั้นๆ เท่านั้น แป๊บเดียวก็ผ่านไปแล้ว แต่ถ้าเทียบกับเวลาในชีวิต หากใครอยู่ถึง 80 ปี ห้าปีก็จะเท่ากับหนึ่งในสิบหกของชีวิตเขา ถ้าใครมีอายุขัย 60 ปี ห้าปีก็จะเท่ากับหนึ่งในสิบสองของชีวิต
แปลว่าเราจะมี "ห้าปี" ได้ไม่เกินยี่สิบครั้ง
...Continue Reading" In five years, it will be very different from now
Yesterday, I told someone close to me that, five years is a short time. It will pass. But compared to the time in life. If anyone lives 80 years, five years, it will be equal to one of his sixteen of his life if anyone has age. 60 years and five years is equal to one of the twelve of life.
It means we can have "five years" no more than twenty times.
But the upcoming " five years " looks like five years that should be full of changes in each " five years " is different and unequal.
The last "five years" was 35-40 years. It was a time to see the change in the lives of the same generation. Think for yourself that it was the time when life started walking down from the top. We have passed the top of life. (that's 31-35 ), and in this moment, our lives slowly recession, both body, creativity, and power that we want to do things, so it's a time when people in the same age, confused and change in life.
Meanwhile, the age of 35-40 years old is a time of " starting over " like we are entering a " new part " of life. Some people may feel like starting over with something.
So I found a death from one to be reborn. It's a lot of people.
Died from being an office worker, born, being a business owner, dead from being a subordinate, being a responsible boss, died from being a nonsense, born, a father who needs to take care of the child.
If you notice well, you will find that we change the status from those who depend on other people to be independent (independent) and going back to become someone who let others.
Our new role. Besides relying on ourselves, we are also responsible for others.
Like a tree that is old enough and moving closer to death.
Some people enjoy new roles. Some people are tired of obstacles. Some people are tired of change. This is a very mischievous time.
Because even if we don't want to change, we will be forced to change at work. We may not be able to pay "adults" anymore. My boyfriend's family may rush to get married and want to get married and need to spend money to build a house or buy a house including sickness. For parents who have arrived at the age of hospital. There are many new changes that happen outside of plans.
35-40 years is very different than 31-35 years. If you watch it with time frame, it's not far away.
...
41-45 years, the body should be more broken. We should step into the disease in our body. It's not strange if some friends leave during this time or someone may encounter a disease that changed his life.
Inner soul should be more peace and boredom. This should bring change in terms of life, goals and meaning of living.
Some mental conditions may be more stressed with new burden to take care of and never used to the company that founded children, including parents with some people - change of work and family may be a new time to deal with.
All we have now. Nothing guarantees that we will stay the same when we are 45 years old. Our ability with the world. The work that we do. Parents, friends who may disband may disband because life changes including The baby that will slowly change, which will hit our lives too.
It's a " five year " that connects with people. We depend on them. We depend on us. We don't leave each other easily and we are not " Indy " like young anymore. We are not that free.
During the age of 45 years, there may be some people who feel like "leaving" all of these and walk on an empty path, but they can't leave because this is the world around us. We create. We live in it. It lives in us.
"Freedom" may be a longing again and realizing - not easy.
Of course, this is not everyone's life. If it's a rough overview that there may be some of the same point of those in the same age. Some people choose to walk different paths.
It's easy. Five years from now. Some friends will have kids. Some friends will be dealing with the change. Some friends may lose parents. Some friends may find a disease. Some friends may find that they do are done. Some friends may need to lay their hands on. Something and start over with something etc etc etc.
That friend may be me too, no one knows.
If things haven't happened in 41-50 years, it will happen in 45-50 years, our lives will look very different from now.
...
We have traveled over half way of life and have passed the bright time, full of power, including the highs of life. Yes, we can live as cheerful as young children. Teenagers won't get old, dye the head, climbing the helicopter to conquer. Ron man, things have been in another corner. We have to admit that we have traveled for a long time and others in our lives have been traveling for a long time too.
We will learn to leave and deal with it better as much as learning to start again, we will get used to the cuddle rules of feeling of happiness - suffering that happens and the rules of everything is getting better and better. I will have to go through that day. I have to go through a bit of confusing time.
Five more years, it won't look like now.
Hugging parents while they are still playing with kids when they still want to play with us. Use our body as they still allow us to use our body to take ourselves where we want to go when they can still have a conversation with Friends, when you have a chance, because someone may disappear. One day for a reason that no one knows how to take care of the lover, kiss, play jokes in the moment together. Experience the change that happens all the time and we will know what to do with ourselves and with ourselves and with people. Around the surrounding area.
It's not us who change, people around you keep changing. The world keeps changing.
Five more years, it won't look like now.
But even then, we will grow up and find the answer that all the changes are left of all the changes that we will continue to build a small one to live.
Something that I think will change big may not happen while things that I don't think will change, it may change until we can't stand up.
41-50 years. This is the moment we live in a world full of changes that we cannot control.
It all makes us realize how we should live in the midst of all this uncertainty.
I suddenly saw a melting ice cream.
So delicious. Heart is broken.
Then I put a spoon in my mouth
Not in a hurry that I didn't taste it, but it's not too slow that it's not
We will get some taste and have to let some melt away
41-50 years, a life span like ice creamTranslated

《光明軒》
My Abode of Illumination (English version below)
有一回,與徒弟及學生到南部的欣葉中餐館用膳,有位來自中國的女侍應生,在吾的正前方,突然冒出一句:「師父好正。」 這句突如其來的話,「驚醒」定中用膳的吾。被「驚醒」的原因,乃是其話中的那個「正」字。因為這「正」字在近代,常被用來形容女生的漂亮與美,那就是「正點」。但吾很快的就意識到,她所謂的「師父好正」,是代表吾的為人形像端正。在此要感謝那位中國同胞,「師父好正」這句贊語,將是吾一生精進的目標之一。
能得如此的殊榮,本就應歸功於,吾之根本上師,聖尊蓮生活佛,及佛教教主南無本師釋迦牟尼佛。祂們慈悲偉大的「身教」及「言教」,老早已植在吾之識田裡,只因累世的貪、嗔、癡、妒、慢、疑,滋生大片的雜草,遮蓋吾本清淨明朗的識田,行屍走肉,度日如年的荒廢吾好長的一段人生歲月啊!還好在是日已過,命已隨減的危機下,清淨又清涼的佛光,照破吾那昏天暗地的識田,讓吾之識田重新發光發熱,最終成佛離苦得樂。
多年前,有一男一女的弟子,幫吾整理一些移居前的物品。女弟子在入屋前一碰鐵門,有一種觸電的感覺,她甚感不可思議,於是問吾為何因。吾淡然地告於她,這乃多年的結界之故。她聽後依然覺得,實在不可思議。之後她就進入屋內,還不到兩步她又有另一番覺受。她哇的一聲說:「師父您的家真清淨又舒服呀!」 她其實有問那男弟子,是否有何覺受,男弟子說,這裡(指吾家)好好睡哦!是的,這不長進的男弟子,到現在依然「未醒」,且「愈越睡愈深」,已接近「來不及醒」的階段。
吾給自己居住的地方命名為「光明軒」,乃日夜持誦光明聖號、光明咒,食衣住行皆供養,佛菩薩諸神明常往來,久而久之,光明擴長又擴長,吾之居所自然就成就光明軒,清淨又舒服的光明軒。

There was one occasion when I was dining with my disciple and student at Shin Yeh Chinese Restaurant, located at the southern part of Singapore. A female waitress of Chinese nationality was standing in front of me when she suddenly remarked, "Master is awesome!". This sudden remark "woke" me from my meditative stillness while having my meal. The reason being this word "awesome" is also often used nowadays to describe beautiful girls. Of course, I understood her meaning almost instantly. She meant to say that I portray an image of righteousness and properness. I have to thank this lady from China for her lavish praise, for her remark will be my lifetime goal, which I will diligently strive towards.
For this honour, all the credit must go to my Root Guru Master, His Holiness Living Buddha Lian-Sheng, as well as Lord Buddha, Namo Shakyamuni. Their compassionate and noble teachings through Their speech, body and mind, had long been planted in my subconsciousness. But afflictions from my past lives - greed, hatred, ignorance, jealousy, arrogance and doubt, have germinated into a huge wasteland of weeds, enshrouding the pristine nature of my consciousness.
Days feel like years and I walk around like a living dead, squandering a long period of my life! Thankfully, under the impending danger of my dwindling life span as each day passes, the pristine and refreshing illumination from the Buddhas penetrated my overcast consciousness, and my consciousness regains its Light and Radiance. That will eventually lead me to enlightenment and Buddhahood, liberating myself from sufferings and achieving eternal bliss.
Many years ago, two disciples of mine, one male and the other female, helped me to pack my belongings for house-moving. Just as the female disciple touched the metal gate, prior to entering my home, her hand felt a stream of "electric" current. She was baffled and asked me why. I nonchalantly told her that it was due to my years of demarcating the house. She was in awe after hearing my words. It sounded very unfathomable to her. After she stepped into my home, just a step or two into the house, she exclaimed, "Wah! Master, your house is filled with such pure and comfortable energies!" She went on to ask the male disciple if he felt anything. The male disciple replied that my house was a comfortable place to take a nap! Yes, this lazy disciple is still "unawakened" till now. His "slumber" is getting deeper and deeper, and it is nearing the stage that he might not "awake" in the nick of time.
I have named my home The Abode of Illumination. Day and night, I do my recitations of the Holy names and mantras of radiance. I am diligent and consistent in making offerings of food, clothing, accommodation and transport. These acts invoke the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas and Heavenly Beings. As such, They frequently visit my humble abode. Over time, the illumination expanded and my place naturally became the Abode of Illumination, a home that is pure, pristine and comfortable.

【玳瑚師父佛學論】 《相聚與分離皆是緣》
Gatherings & Farewells Are Just Affinity At Play (English)
有首歌的歌詞,相當有意思,特恭錄之以勉勵大家,早日看清這「緣」字,打開心門讓陽光照進來,雨過天晴,清清朗朗。歌中唱到:別管以後將如何結束,至少我們曾經相聚過。吾認為這兩句歌詞,實足以撫平親朋戚友的「離去」,以及夫妻與情侶,緣盡分離的內心創傷。利益眾生的方法,就是佛法。這首歌的作詞人,在不知不覺中,也就行了「菩提」。大家不妨仿效之,創作一首解壓的歌曲,比如,當我們同在一起,真快樂無比.......
生離死別,是世間的眾苦之一。吾,玳瑚師父,早已「領教」過這一苦。那是不是從今以後,吾再也不會經歷這種苦呢?答案是,不是的。我們祇要一天還有世緣,依然還是會碰到這種苦。就拿吾來說吧!時至今日,吾也還不是得飽受徒弟與學生的叛離。這其實也是一種「生離死別」啊!走過某間咖啡屋,走過某間餐館,走過某個地方,似乎有隻形影不離的榔頭,欲悄悄地敲痛吾的心,痛苦一般可見。但還好,吾是一位實修的行者,除去七情六欲,是吾一生的功課。傷過、痛過、哭過,更能引領廣大眾生,邁進康莊大道。
妳你與三兩好友,正想合資做生意,什麼時候開業,什麼時候結業,在妳你們的八字裡,已有「伏藏」的密碼。當中當然不祇這些八字裡的「伏藏」,亦含蓋身體的健康指數,富貴與貧賤,丁貴與否,夫妻有否百夜恩,等等。那為何一個人的八字能夠「顯示」這麼多的資訊呢?有句成語說得極是,那就是:若要人不知,除非己莫為。我們所做的一切,就是一因子,因緣俱足下,就成了果。
在真正學佛人的眼裡,來討債的也好,來報恩的也好,善緣也好,逆緣也罷!隨她他來,隨她他去,這樣心才能普空寂,一切的因因果果,亦才能停止。心即是明鏡台,此時就如《金剛經》裡的無我相、無人相、無眾生相、無壽者相,一切明明白白,正如大日照破無明。但,現今的妳你,必需要有相聚與分離皆是緣的基礎心念。

There is a verse in a song which I find particularly meaningful, and I would like to share it with everyone as a form of encouragement. I hope you will finally see clearly the true meaning of affinity and open up your heart to let in the rays of the sun, forming a clarity as clear and bright as the after-rain. In the song, one verse reads, "It does not matter how it might end in the future, at least we were together once." In my opinion, this verse is fully capable of soothing any grief and hurt from the departure of a family member or friend, as well as the emotional pain and sorrow from the breakup of a marriage or relationship. The Dharma is present in all things beneficial for the sentient beings. The lyricist of this song has inadvertently performed a deed of compassion. Everyone can learn from him, and compose similar songs that relieve sufferings. For example, "When we get together, how merry we all are..."
Separation between loved ones in life or death is one of the sufferings for all sentient beings. Master Dai Hu has long experienced this suffering. Does it mean that from now on, I am not going to live through this suffering again? The answer is NO. As long as we are still connected by affinity to this world, we are bound to encounter this suffering. Take myself for example, I had to live through the agony of the betrayal of disciples and students. This is also a kind of separation suffering! Walking past a certain coffee house, a certain restaurant, a certain place, there seemed to be an invisible hammer hitting my heart silently and painfully. Fortunately, I am a true practitioner, with a lifetime mission to rid myself of the seven emotions and six desires. After the hurt, pain and tears, I am more equipped to lead all sentient beings and forge ahead, onto the glorious Path.
When you and a couple of friends strike upon a new business idea, the key to the crucial questions of when to start the business, when to exit, etc, are already hidden in the birth charts of your partners and yourself. Of course, there are more hidden information in a birth chart: indicators concerning your health, wealth, descendants, marriage, etc. Why is it possible that a birth chart can reveal so much about oneself? I would like to share a well-said Chinese saying, "The best way to hide a misdeed is not to commit it." Our every action is like a planting a seed which, under adequate conditions, shall ripen into the fruit.
In the eyes of a true Buddhist practitioner, it makes no difference if a karmic debtor or a karmic benefactor appears, be it a kindred affinity or a difficult one, let it all rest! They can come and go as they like. Only in this state of mind can the mind be unbound and unattached. Only this enlightened state can put an end to the unrelenting causes and effects. When enlightened, your heart is like a mirror, as put forth in the Diamond Sutra, that do not abide in the notion of self, person, sentient being and life span. Everything becomes crystal clear, like the rays of the Sun that have fully penetrated the darkness of ignorance. But at this moment in time, you must have this basic foundation to realise that all gatherings and farewells are just but affinity.
