【玳瑚師父佛學論】 《短慮而失敗》
Failure due to lack of Foresight (English version below)
吾家父是個很能幹的父親。他一個人養九個孩子，加班之餘，閒暇時間以行醫和玄學來利生養家，吾平時看他都是睡很少。看看新加坡的國父李光燿，為囯為民貢獻一生。吾的佛父，蓮生活佛，更是粉身碎骨度衆生。
父親要在外頭賺錢養家，這個時候就不能隨隨便便不喜歡就辭去工作，因爲辭去工作的那刹那要想到米缸的米，孩子的奶粉錢，還有家人的生活起居，必須得忍辱負重，這些都是偉大的。能夠將自己的精神體力貢獻給國人及衆生，把小愛化爲大愛，更是人上人。
以下文章獻給父親們，玳瑚師父祝所有天下的父親們父親節快樂，身心身體健康，也祝吾師佛佛体安康，度眾無數，任何病痛都不臨身，度眾圓滿。

妳你可曾失敗過？請不用不好意思。可以說每個人都曾經歷過失敗。分別只在於失敗的原因，各有各的不同。但怎麼樣的不同， 皆離不開短慮與運氣。我們放眼這世界上,所有成功的人士，我們不難發現她他們多少都有些遠見。當然,，單有遠見而沒有運，成功的時日，自然就沒那麼早到。
相反的，我們放眼這世界上，所有的失敗人士，我們也不難發現，她他們失敗的因素，那就是短慮及欠缺時運。活在這地球上的我們，一定要有遠見，沒有遠見等如坐以待斃，與自殺沒兩樣。請認真仔細想想看，戰爭如何來？因為國與國之間沒有遠見。要知道，安邦才可定國啊！為何好好一個家庭會破裂？為何好好一個身體會敗壞？為何米桶總是缺米？為何做生意總是沒有盈餘......？
人生在世要有遠見，人身離世更要有遠見啊！有些人找吾為其批八字，得知其父母在某歲會有大關，立馬淚流滿面。其實啊！妳你若有遠見，根本就不必如此，也不必聽到「西洋樂隊」奏起音樂時痛哭流淚。哈哈哈！父母在世時，就應盡孝，且要知曉她他們是否有任何遺願待了。若有的話， 儘量一一為她他們完成，好讓他她們得以早日安息，冥陽兩利。
最重要的是，要趁她他們健在時，知曉她他們的信仰，並在她他們耳邊唸誦相關的經咒，引領她他們離開及跨越「障礙」， 往光明長樂的境界去 ，這可以說就是大孝了。 只要祖先「安樂」，我們自然而然就會安樂。祝各位不再短慮而失敗。

My Dad is a very capable father. He was the sole breadwinner for our family of 9 children. In addition to working overtime, he rendered medical and Chinese Metaphysics services in his spare time for extra income. I also noticed that he got very little sleep. Our Founding Father, the late Mr Lee Kuan Yew, also contributed his life for our nation. My Buddha Father, Living Buddha Lian-Sheng, would not spare a thought for His own life for the salvation of all sentient beings.
As a father, a man has to make ends meet and does not have the liberty to quit his job on a whim as he knows that the livelihood of the family would be affected. He has to endure huge amount of stress and humiliation and that is nobility for his family's sake. To be able to direct both your mental and physical energy for the betterment of the country or all sentient beings, and expand the love you have for your family into an all encompassing one for all, that is the exalted hallmark of a noble father.
This article below is dedicated to all fathers. Master Dai Hu wishes all fathers a Happy Father's Day. May all of you be strong and healthy. I would like to wish my Guru Master good health. May He be free from all illnesses and be deliver all sentient beings from sufferings in complete perfection.

Have you ever experienced failure before? Please do not be embarrassed as I would say almost everyone has failed before. The difference lies in the reasons for their failures. Though they may all sound different, they would not be too far off from these two: lack of foresight and lack of luck. Let us survey the successful people in this world and it is not hard to discover that these people possess foresight. Of course, without abundance of good fortune, the days of success would not come so soon too.
On the contrary, we look at the people who had failed and would also discover the main reasons of their downfall in their short-sightedness and a run of bad luck. Living in this world, we must look farther ahead, without which is akin to being a "sitting duck" waiting to be hit. It is no different from committing suicide. Please think about this deeply, why do wars occur? It is due to a lack of foresight between nations. You must know that a nation will only prosper if her state affairs are administered well, not by going to war with one another. Why do families fall apart? Why do your health deteriorate? Why is your rice bucket never full? Why do your business fail to make profit?
Both the living and the dead need foresight! Some clients engaged my service to read their birth chart (bazi) only to discover that their own parents would face a big mortality hurdle at a certain age. They would immediately break down in tears. Actually, it does not have to be this way. You do not have to listen to the funeral band and shed tears of sorrow. Ha ha ha! You should be filial to your parents while they are alive, and find out what their unfulfilled wishes are. You should do your best to satisfy their wishes so that they may go in peace when the day comes. This is beneficial for both the living and the deceased.
Most importantly, while they are still alive and healthy, you should know their religious belief, so that you can recite or chant the relevant mantra or sutra and guide them over their karmic obstacles and towards the realm of light and everlasting bliss. This final act will be the greatest filial piety of all. As long as the ancestors are well and at peace, we, as their descendants, will naturally be well too. I wish everyone to possess foresight in their lives and be successful.

"Civil War"內戰
(Slash / McKagan / Rose)

(採自電影"鐵窗喋血")
"What we've got here is failure to communicate.
Some men you just can't reach...
So, you get what we had here last week,
which is the way he wants it!
Well, he gets it!
N' I don't like it any more than you men." *
"我們現在的狀況就是溝通失敗
有些傻逼就是聽不懂人話
所以,你剛看到的這付鳥樣就跟上週一樣,
那就是他要的！
好樣的,現在他得到了！
而我跟你們一樣不喜歡這樣"
Look at your young men fighting
Look at your women crying
Look at your young men dying
The way they've always done before
看著你的年輕人戰鬥
看著你的女人落淚
看著你的年輕人捐軀
我們從來就是這麼幹
Look at the hate we're breeding
Look at the fear we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading
The way we've always done before
看看我們種下的仇恨
看看我們餵養的恐懼
看看我們引領的生活
我們從來就是這麼幹
My hands are tied
The billions shift from side to side
And the wars go on with brainwashed pride
For the love of God and our human rights
And all these things are swept aside
By bloody hands time can't deny
And are washed away by your genocide
And history hides the lies of our civil wars
我束手無策
千萬人從一邊倒向另一邊
戰爭隨著被洗腦的驕傲持續
為了上帝之愛和我們的人權
這些都被掃一邊去
無法否認 染血的雙手
被你的大屠殺清洗得乾乾淨淨
歷史隱藏了我們內戰的謊言
D'you wear a black armband
When they shot the man
Who said "Peace could last forever"
And in my first memories
They shot Kennedy
I went numb when I learned to see
當他們射殺那人
他說過"和平永存"
你是否戴著黑臂帶悼念
而在我最早的回憶裡
他們殺了甘迺迪
從此我學會有眼無嘴
So I never fell for Vietnam
We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all
That you can't trust freedom
When it's not in your hands
When everybody's fightin'
For their promised land
所以我從不愛越南
D.C的越戰紀念碑提醒我們
當自由不在你手裡
你不可以相信自由
當每個人都在為了
自己的希望之地爭戰
And
I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war
我不需要你的內戰
它養肥富者埋葬窮人
你的權利欲
把士兵們賣到人肉咁仔店
還新鮮嗎
我不需要你的內戰
Look at the shoes your filling
Look at the blood we're spilling
Look at the world we're killing
The way we've always done before
看看你追隨的腳步
看看我們灑落的鮮血
看看我們殺戮的世界
我們從來就是這麼幹
Look in the doubt we've wallowed
Look at the leaders we've followed
Look at the lies we've swallowed
And I don't want to hear no more
看看我們在懷疑裡打滾
看看我們跟隨的領袖
看看我們吞下的謊言
我不想再聽到這些了
My hands are tied
For all I've seen has changed my mind
But still the wars go on as the years go by
With no love of God or human rights
'Cause all these dreams are swept aside
By bloody hands of the hypnotized
Who carry the cross of homicide
And history bears the scars of our civil wars
我束手無策
我看到的改變了我的想法
但年復一年征戰依舊持續
不是為了上帝之愛或人權
因為這些夢想都一掃而空
施展催眠的染血雙手
抬著殺伐的十字架
而歷史披著我們內戰的傷痕
O.S.
(某秘魯游擊隊將軍)
"We practice selective annihilation of mayors
And government officials
For example to create a vacuum
Then we fill that vacuum
As popular war advances
Peace is closer" **
"我們實行選擇性地消滅市長及政府官員"
就好像我們創造真空 然後填滿真空
當戰爭越受到歡迎
和平就越近了"
I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
And I don't need your civil war
我不需要你的內戰
它養肥富者埋葬窮人
你的權利欲
把士兵們賣到人肉咁仔店
還新鮮嗎
我不需要你的內戰
I don't need your civil war
I don't need your civil war
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store
Ain't that fresh
I don't need your civil war
I don't need one more war
我不需要你的內戰
它養肥富者埋葬窮人
你的權利欲
把士兵們賣到人肉咁仔店
還新鮮嗎
我不需要你的內戰
我不要再有戰爭
I don't need one more war
我不要再有戰爭
Whaz so civil 'bout war anyway
到底戰爭是有多文明?

Come Come
Come here at once
On a night with no moon
Because all of my being is now in pining
All of my being is now in pining
