【玳瑚師父客人見證】 《玄學的力量》
The Power Of Chinese MetaPhysics (English version below)

文 / 劉泳廷 女士 Written by Mdm Loh Yong Ting

在2012通過我的表妹的介紹，我認識了玳瑚師父。也去過玳瑚師父帶領的同修。後來忙著結婚，就沒跟隨表妹去同修。

今年我懷孕了，也因為之前我动过手术，醫生建議我剖腹生產 。表妹就建議我去給師父選個好日子讓寶寶順利誕生。就從這開始，我又跟玳瑚師父續緣。

今年我請玳瑚師父幫我寶寶選個好日子出生、幫我改名字、看八字和看母親家里的風水。

當我請玳瑚師父幫我之後，我受益良多！讓我一一的講給你們听。

1）選寶寶誕生的日子︰玳瑚師父一直有跟我說這一胎會早生。但師父還是給我一個很好的日子，就在十二月低生。在十一月低的復診時，醫生真的說我無法等到十二月低生，建議我提早去生产。

2）改名字︰ 我的名字每次都給別人叫錯。還有一路來，老板都不是很重視我。我健康也不好，每一兩個月就會生病。但一當改名，老板就重視我，我提出的建議他都一一接納，如果有會議也叫我一同去。我健康也大有進步，比以前好很多，醫藥費都省了不少！

3）看八字︰其實八字可以看到很多東西，可以了解很多，知道了你的八字就是知道你的未來。我能規劃和安排我的將來，也能知道需要注意和避免些什麼, 那不會走冤枉路。玳瑚師父也讓我知道什麼東西適合我，例如:我該穿或吃和或用些什麼。比如︰玳瑚師父說我適合用夏士蓮雪花膏，我用了幾天後，我的干燥皮膚和青春痘都好了。

4）家的風水︰不久前，我剛請玳瑚師父到我母親家看風水。玳瑚師父一來，就指出我母親經常失眠、百葉窗簾造成沒有財富,等等等。

玳瑚師父提議︰把床架換了再把它改成另一個位置，換位後，媽媽就睡的很甜，連我進去她的房間她都不知道！我們也把百葉窗簾改成藍色的窗簾布，改了後，媽媽在同一天就中兩個馬票字。

玳瑚師父也有指點我的先生，在他的車頭司機座位的那邊會有意外。果然，就在上個星期天他的車突然發出一個鐵磨鐵的聲音，把我給嚇到了！幸虧發現的早，不然就不堪設想！

那一天，玳瑚師父突然問我是否有媽媽的照片。當師父看照片時，就說媽媽會有血的健康問題，例如︰高血壓。
我吃了一驚！因為就在前一天，媽媽才剛拿到檢查報告說她健康亮起了紅燈，血壓很高得吃藥控制。

玳瑚師父不止是個風水師父，還是個醫生!

能再跟師父續緣，真的是我的榮幸。

我很感恩有玳瑚師父在旁指點和教導我，讓我在事業和生活上有很大的改善，不再走冤枉路。

感恩玳瑚師父，阿彌陀佛。

-------------------------

I got to know Master Dai Hu in 2012 through my younger cousin and had attended a few sessions of group cultivation led by Master. Subsequently, I was bogged down by my wedding preparations and did not follow my younger cousin to the group cultivation.

I got pregnant this year and the doctor advised me to deliver the baby via caesarean section due to my past operation. My younger cousin then suggested that I should consult Master Dai Hu for an auspicious date to deliver the baby. From there onwards, my affinity with Master continued. This year alone, I had engaged Master Dai Hu to select a date for the delivery of my baby, change my Chinese name, analyze my birth chart, as well as audit the Feng Shui of my mum's residence.

I have benefited greatly from Master Dai Hu's help. Let me share them with you here:

1) Selection of a delivery date for my baby: Master told me repeatedly that this baby would arrive earlier than expected, although he gave me an auspicious date towards end of December. When I went for my routine check-up end of November, the doctor told me that the baby could not wait till end-December (which was the original ETA) and advised me to deliver the baby earlier.

2) Change of Name: My original name always got pronounced wrongly by others. In the past, I did not get much appreciation from my superior, and due to poor health, I would fall sick every other month. However, since I changed my name, I experienced the opposite! My superior valued me more, took in my suggestions at work and started asking me along for meetings. My health condition took a big step forward as well and saved me quite a bit of medical bills!

3) Birth Chart Analysis: We actually could see and understand a lot of things from our Birth Chart. Knowing your birth chart is akin to knowing your future. I am able to plan for my future, and has the visibility of what is ahead and to look out for in order to take the path of least resistance. Master Dai Hu also advised on details such as what is favorable for me, in terms of my diet, clothing and lifestyle choices. For example, Master told me that the Hazeline Cream is good for me, and true enough, my skin dryness and acne conditions improved tremendously only a few days after using the cream.

4) Feng Shui Audit: Not long ago, I invited Master to my Mum's residence for a Feng Shui Audit. The moment he stepped in, he pointed out that my mother suffered from insomnia, and that the roman blinds in my house resulted in our failure to accumulate wealth, etc.

Master's advice: Change the bed frame as well as the position of the bed, after which my mother's sleeping condition miraculously improved to the extent that she, while asleep, did not even stir when I went into her room! Also, we swapped the roman blinds for a blue colored, conventional kind of curtain. My mother struck lottery, twice, on the same day we changed the curtains!

Master Dai Hu also advised my husband to watch out for car accidents and problems, especially at the frontal area of the driver's seat. It happened last Sunday when I heard sounds of metal clanging coming from his car! It gave me a big fright! Thank goodness the fault was discovered early before the unthinkable happened.

One day, out of the blue, Master Dai Hu asked me if I had a photo of my mother. I showed him one and he remarked that my mother would have a blood-related health issue like high blood pressure and the likes. I was dumb-founded as indeed, my mother was diagnosed with high blood pressure the day before and had to be put on medication!

Master Dai Hu is not your ordinary Feng Shui Master. He is a doctor too!

It is my honour to renew this affinity with Master, and I am grateful to him for his advice and teachings, allowing me to experience many positive changes in my career and personal life. No more taking the wrong road in life!

My gratitude to Master Dai Hu! Amituofo.

Please donate and share post. I have!

Family,

I have the most generous Facebook friends in the world. I don't ask you to step up often, but when I do, you show up.

I need each and every one of you to go ahead and make your most generous possible donation right this very moment for the family of Jordan Edwards.

As I type, Odell & Charmaine are at the funeral home having to haggle with prices for the funeral and casket and burial plot for their baby boy. This is not OK. They should not have to do this.

I just told Odell that you all would handle it. They need $15,000 for all of those costs in the next few hours, OK.

Now, in addition to that, I want us to raise money so that Odell & Charmaine can have as much paid time off as they need to grieve, to care for their family, and to fight for justice.

Also, I want us to raise money so they can have world class counseling and all of their needs taken care for the foreseeable future. It would also be kind of us to provide college funds for the rest of their babies.

I am setting the goal of us raising $250,000 by tonight. Let's raise it, then move on to just focus on justice, so that this family can grieve.

Listen, you have no idea what they've had to see and hear this week. I can hardly type it without crying in anger. Their son was shot in the face with a rifle in front of their other son. Then they arrested and locked up their son and the family had no idea what happened. Do you understand me?

Let's get Odell and Charmaine everything they need - right now. Thank you. I love you all.

《習慣這兩個字》(English writing below)

今天您向自己的命運說了什麼話？

一位師姐買了師父數十本新書，想在自己的臉書送出一部份。她興致勃勃地說要分享師父的直播。

師父斥責她，學佛這麼久，為何不自己寫一篇貼文去介紹書籍，而要用分享功能？

她吞吞吐吐地說：「我不知道要怎麼寫⋯⋯」

師父說，學佛就是教我們如何用腦去思考，懶得用腦而祇會東分享西分享，貪方便貪快走捷徑，根本就沒用心學佛。

後來，我跟這位師姐說，天底下還是有許多男人看不起女人，因為覺得我們女人不怎麼聰明。她先生遲遲不與她在生意合作，也正是因為覺得她沒有這能力。（其實她有許多方面的能力是強過先生的）

想想看，一個女子習慣在自己的臉書上，寫些今天到哪裡玩，明天在哪間咖啡座吃蛋糕，讓他人覺得自己多享受生活。這些都祇是勾起眾生享樂的欲望，引他們去耗掉自己的福份。這女子已當了差不多一輩子的佛教徒。某天，想突破自己習慣，去勸善，教大家如何補福的時候，卻又說不懂、不會、不知道，我做媽的一定很難過，供妳上學讀書二十年，妳都讀了些什麼啊？一個大學生怎麼講出這麼不爭氣的話？！

我有時想，這應該也是為何我們佛教徒「遜色」於基督教徒的原因。在介紹自己的宗教方面，我們好像就沒有他們的膽量和口才。是我們太習慣含蓄和隨緣，而辜負給予我們心靈力量的佛教嗎？

上個週末，在餐館用餐時，聽到一位婦人和家人聚餐時，不停地說：「這些東西在這裡吃好吃，我買食材回去，都沒有煮。為什麼啊？」

然後又自己接著說：「哎呀，習慣了啦，習慣了咯！」

我聽了，頓時覺得有點悲從中來。

多少客人在我面前，講過類似的話，還講得不亦樂乎。有時，我會反問他們：「那你來找我幹嘛？何必浪費我的時間又浪費你自己的錢？我來不是來聽你講這些掃興的話。你要講這樣的話，回家講。

你想想一下，你今天來難道是要我跟你講，對咯，是這樣的啦？既然不是，那你講話要用腦，想過了才講。你看你幾歲的人了。不會講就不要亂講，亂亂講祇會亂了自己的命運，划得來嗎？」

人祇所以會「賤命」，有時是因為自己嘴巴「賤」。

習慣講

「不知道」
「不會」
「不懂」
「沒想過」
「習慣了啦」
「我都那麼老了」
「隨便咯」
「哦，是嗎？」
「沒想那麼遠啦」
「是這樣的嘛」
「認命咯」
「我的命是這樣的」

不知道，要問。
不會，就要學。
不懂，可以多了解。
沒想過，現在去想。
習慣，就要突破盲點。
老了，就不用好命嗎？幹嘛要折磨自己？
隨便？你還嫌你過去一生不夠隨便嗎？
哦，是嗎？是啊，要不然呢？
沒想那麼遠，現在不再想，你就來不及了。
是這樣，也可以是那樣，那樣明明比較好，不要笨得還要這樣。
認命？大哥，你搞錯了，命是拿來「認」識，然後再去改的。
不要死腦筋，以為命運是這樣就沒別的路可以走。

今早，我向一位舊客人說：「你有沒有想過你的婚姻這樣這樣，也會影響到你的孩子將來會以為婚姻就是這樣？」

他答：「我沒有想過。」

我們的命運，會牽連身邊很多的人，包括自己的最愛。

習慣說某種話，也是從一個念頭開始的。

而念頭是可以改變的。

走出去，就有路。念頭轉一下，就有生機。

還有七天便進入2019年了，我祝願大家，不要怕吃苦，不要抗拒改變習慣，不要敗給自己的命運。

無論前面的山有多高，無論前面的路有多崎嶇，有我的幫忙，你一定能夠平安喜樂的度過。這是我給妳你的保證。

⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯

What have you told your Destiny today?

A Dharma Sister bought tens of Shifu's new book. She wanted to give out some of them through her Facebook platform and was telling Shifu how she would do it by sharing his FB Live.

Unexpectedly, Shifu reprimanded her. Since she had been learning the Dharma for a period of time, why didn't she try writing a post to introduce the book, but instead take to using the share function?

Most of us would know that sharing on FB doesn't generate much interest as posts we write ourselves.

She hesitantly replied, "I don't know how to write..."

Shifu said, to learn the Dharma is to learn how to use our brains to think. If we are lazy to exercise our brain conigitive ability, and resort to taking the shortcut u sharing here and there, for the sake of convenience and speed, then we have actually never put our heart in learning the Dharma.

Later on, I also told this Dharma Sister that in this world, there were still many men who looked down on women for our perceived lack of intelligence. Her Husband had hesitated to work together with her in his business because he felt she lacked the ability. Fact was, there were many areas she excelled in compared to her Husband.

Think about this, a lady, who is used to writing on her Facebook where she went to play today and which cafe she is going tomorrow to have cake, is just conveying how much she is enjoying her life. All these will only evoke the desire of hedonism in others, luring them to exhaust their good fortune.

Say one day, this lady has a momental thought to do good and preach about it. She haa been a Buddhist almost all her life. She wants to change her habitual FB posts to one that teaches others how to top up their good fortune, but that momental thought is swiftly replaced with a "I don't know how". If I am her mother, I would be so upset. Having funded her through school for 20 years, what had she been studying? How can a university graduate utter such disappointing words?

I sometimes think this is why we Buddhists often "lose" to our Christian counterparts. They seem to be more fearless and eloquent in talking about their religion than us Buddhists. Are we too used to being docile, that we let down the religion that helped us up?

Last weekend, while dining in a restaurant, I overheard the conversation of one elderly who was having dinner with her family.

She was saying this repeatedly, "This food is so nice when I eat here. When I buy the raw ingredients back to cook, I just never get about doing it. Why hah?"

And then she continued her monologue, "Aiyah, it's a habit lah. Habit already lah!"

Upon hearing it, I felt a momentary sense of grief.

So many clients have said something similar in front of me, and some of them seemed to get so much joy in saying it, as if it justifies everything that have happened in their lives.

Sometimes, I would ask them, "Then why do you look for me? Why waste my time and your money? I come all the way here not to hear you speak in this killjoy manner. If you want to talk like this, do it at home.

Think about this for a minute. Did you come here today to hear me say, yeah, it's like this lah? No, right? Then use your brain before you speak. Look at how old you are now. If you don't know how to say, don't talk nonsensically. This will only mess up your Destiny. Will it be worth it?

Sometimes, the reason why a person has a lousy Destiny is because he or she has a lousy way of speaking.

He or she habitually says things like,

"Don't know."
"Don't know how."
"Don't understand."
"Never thought of it before."
"I'm used to it."
"I'm so old already!"
"Whatever"
"Oh, is it?"
"Got to succumb to life."
"My Destiny is like this."

If you don't know, you must ask.
If you don't know how, then you should learn.
If you don't understand, you can go figure it out.
If you never think about it before, think about it now.
If you are used to something, it's time to breakthrough from your blind points.

So what if you are old? Does that mean there's no need to have a better life? Why choose to torture yourself when you can have better fortune?

Whatever? You think you have not been "whatever-ing" enough? Look where you end up now.
Oh is it? Yes it is. Abo then?

If you have planned ahead, it's time to do so now before it's too late

It's like this? It can also be like that. When "that" is better, don't be foolish to continue like "this".

Succumb to your Destiny? Our destiny is for us to recognise ourselves, and then turn things around.

Don't be blockheaded and think that there is no other way out of your Destiny.

For this who think it's troublesome to change, let me tell you this, your mindset is going to haunt you in your many subsequent rebirths. If you don't get rid of your limiting beliefs, it will be more painful to live the same Destiny, again and again and again.

This morning, I was asking an old client, "Have you ever thought that your marriage like this will influence your child, into thinking that marriages are supposed to be like this?"

His reply, "I never thought of it."

Our destiny has huge repercussions on the many people around us, including our loved ones.

Our habit of saying something begins from a thought.

And a thought can always be changed .

You will find a road ahead when you decide to take the first step and walk out.

You will find Spring again when you can turn your thoughts around.

7 more days before 2019 rolls in. I wish that you will not be afraid of hardship, not be resistant to changing your habits, and most importantly, not to be defeated by your own Destiny.

No matter how high the mountain is, no matter how windy the road ahead may be, with my help, you can always cross your hurdles with ease and joy. That is my assurance to you.

The strange confluence of Chris Webber's past and present came down to the play that "never works."

It would have worked this time if Webber had converted a layup.

Webber came up short on a last-second layup after grabbing an offensive rebound off an intentionally missed free throw, spoiling his debut for the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday night in a 101-99 loss to the Sacramento Kings.


"For some reason, that play never works," Webber said of the intentional miss. "I just knew it was going to work this time. I tried to get it out of my left hand and throw it up, thinking time, but there was more time than I thought, and after I missed, it was a letdown."


Webber had 16 points, 11 rebounds and three steals in his first game with his new team. Strangely, it came against the franchise that traded him less than 72 hours earlier.


Webber didn't have the ball in his hands as much as he's accustomed to, but Allen Iverson took care of distributing it by handing out a season-high 14 assists to go with his 27 points.


Mike Bibby scored 19 points to lead six players in double figures for the Kings.


Webber was shocked when he first learned he had been traded, an emotion that didn't quite compare to the overwhelming weirdness as he debuted for his new team against his old one.

"Real weird seeing No. 4 starting for the other team, but a lot of fun," Sacramento's Brad Miller said.

Webber, wearing a red and black headband and a white "Sixers" jersey, exchanged hugs with all five starters from his former team after receiving a thunderous ovation during introductions from the 76ers' first sellout crowd of the season.


Scalper traffic was heavy outside the arena, and the arena was full for the first time in 26 home games. More than 11,500 advance tickets have been sold since the 76ers pulled off the trade for Webber on Wednesday night.


The relatively low price the Sixers paid, giving up forwards Corliss Williamson, Kenny Thomas and Brian Skinner while keeping intact their young core of Samuel Dalembert, Kyle Korver, Andre Iguodala and Willie Green, helped contribute to a palpable air of excitement.


Webber knocked down his first two shots, both jumpers, and played to the crowd after Sacramento was forced to call an early timeout.


"When I hit my first shot and they reacted that way, it was like: OK, this is going to be home. It felt great," Webber said. I'm just disappointed I couldn't bring a win home."


Philadelphia began the night just one game behind Boston for first place in the Atlantic Division, and there was a sense in this city that making the playoffs might merely be the first step of what could be a deep march through the postseason if Webber and Iverson can blend.


"I'm looking to the challenge to see how we connect," Webber said. "I think it's definitely Allen's team because he's proven to the city, the community and the team what he brings to the table. But I think now it's going to be our team because of the way him and I are going to work together."


Iverson is no stranger to being paired with scorers who were supposed to work well with him, but none of the players the 76ers have imported -- from Jerry Stackhouse to Larry Hughes to Keith Van Horn to Glenn Robinson to Toni Kukoc -- has ever fit into that role.


Part of the blame can be pointed at Iverson for his tendency to dominate the ball to such an extent that those second scorers never had enough offensive opportunities to be consistent threats. This time will be different, the Sixers hope, because of Webber's ability to pass the ball and run the offense through the high or low post.


Webber said the contrast between Sacramento's schemes and Philadelphia's offense was "like the difference between cursive and shorthand. It's just crazy, but I will make an adjustment."


For the Kings, concerns over Webber's recovery from microfracture surgery on his knee -- "There's no way I'm 100 percent," he said Saturday -- along with the $62 million remaining on his contract were two of the other reasons behind their decision to trade one of the game's most versatile big men.


The game was close throughout, the Kings coming back from an 11-point third-quarter deficit and going ahead 96-92 on a basket by Williamson before Webber hit a jumper to make it a two-point game.

"I told Chris that the rebound was going to come long. Everything happened right," Iverson said. "We just couldn't finish it."

IELTS SPEAKING PART 2 - DESCRIBE A GOOD LAW IN YOUR COUNTRY

Đề bài " Describe a good law in your country" đã được ra khá là nhiều lần trong năm 2018 vừa rồi nên hôm nay IELTS Fighter sẽ giới thiệu đến các bạn cách trả lời theo công thức A.R.A.E giúp các bạn tự tin vượt qua câu hỏi này hơn nhé. Hãy bắt đầu bài học nào!

CÁCH TRẢ LỜI CÂU HỎI VỚI CÔNG THỨC A.R.A.E

1. Answer:

Well to be completely honest, I don’t know the first thing about any law specifically, but if I have to think about one, I think it would be the restriction on cellphone use while driving in my country. You know, answering phone calls or texting while driving or riding motorbikes is a common sight in Vietnam therefore the government has decided to impose this restriction. Under this regulation, drivers using handheld phones while driving motorbikes have to pay a fine of 600 to 800,000 VND. They also have their driving licenses revoked for 3 months. If a violator causes a fatal accident, they will face criminal charges.

Well to be completely honest, I don’t know the first thing about any law specifically, but if I have to think about one, I think it would be the restriction on cellphone use while driving in my country.

You know, answering phone calls or texting while driving or riding motorbikes is a common sight in Vietnam therefore the government has decided to impose this restriction.

What do we have to do if we violate the regulation?

Under this regulation, drivers using handheld phones while driving motorbikes have to pay a fine of 600 to 800,000 VND.

They also have their driving licenses revoked for 3 months.

If a violator causes a fatal (= chết người) accident, they will face criminal charges.

2. Reason

harm people’s life = /ˈdʒepərdaɪz/ = jeopardise

In my opinion I think this regulation is absolutely reasonable because with technology growing rapidly, cell phone becomes more dangerous as it jeopardises people’s life.

Drivers who use cell phone to text are most likely to look over their phones than the road and can take away a life in the blink of an eye. Therefore they fail to concentrate and reduce their vision of the road ahead.

3. Example

In fact, there was this deadly (=fatal) accident in Hanoi’s Bac Tu Liem. It happened because a truck driver was talking a phone while driving and ran into a motorbike, killing a woman and her son right on the spot. (=immediately)

4. Alternative

There are also some people argue that hands-free mobile phone is not dangerous because people can drive using both of their hands. This may even worsen the situation by suggesting that the behavior is safe.

When a car swerves unexpectedly or pedestrians step into traffic, and the mind lacks the processing power to react on time.
