心经最能解决人心里矛盾的问题

男听众：师父有说过功德最大就是心经，那是不是我们平常念心经利益到身边的众生？

台长答：心经功德大、大悲咒功德也大，所有的经文功德都很大。但是心经是最能够解决人心里矛盾的问题。只要你想不通、想自杀、脑子不好想不通，一念心经，只要你的心一动，菩萨的智慧就到了你的心里。

______
念心经可以变聪明

女听众：您说过心经可以帮助人家开智慧，还有去除烦恼。如果每天坚持念，生出来不聪明的人也可以变成一个聪明人吗？

台长答：那当然了，心经去烦恼、开智慧的！其实人生出来的时候都不是很聪明的，你说哪一个人生出来就很聪明的？都是慢慢学了变聪明的。有些人天生智商不是太好，靠菩萨不断地给他加持，他智商也会好起来的（明白）

________________
爱发脾气的人要多念心经

女听众：如果这个人如果总是愿意发脾气，他命中有两个火，他是不是应该多念心经呀？

台长答：那当然啦，一个是提高自身修养。他命根当中有火的话那就要叫他消除火，像这种人要经常洗澡、泡水，家里要放金鱼缸，都会慢慢消除他的火的。

_________________
多念心经会增强贵人缘

男听众：台长能不能开示一下：多念心经就会有贵人缘，就会有贵人来相助。

台长答：对，心经是跟人家say hello打招呼，让人开智慧的，开了智慧的人会跟人家吵架吗？开了智慧的人不会骂人啊，整天去帮助人家，知道舍去小我，换得大我啊。所以心经念得多有智慧的人人缘一定很好，人缘很好的人不就是有贵人缘了吗？你把所有的人都当成贵人，你贵人缘不是已经形成了吗？（对对）

[Curiousparty]

学佛修心就等于把菩萨的能量体加在你的心中，让你成为一个诚实的人、不怕磨难的人、而且有菩萨保佑的人，这些人心中有底了，所以在人间做任何事情他们都不怕了。是不是给他一种加持能量？所以学佛的人他没有阻碍的，为什么？他学了佛他什么都不怕，他认为这是一种缘分。

一一卢军宏台长

To practise Buddhism and to cultivate our heart is equivalent to appending the Bodhisattva's energy field into your heart, which turns you into an honest person, one who will not be defeated by hardships, and also be blessed by the Bodhisattva. Those who practise Buddhism will always see hope and feel secured. They will have no fear in handling any matters within the human realm. Was it not a kind of blessing power given by the Bodhisattva? Thus, those who practise Buddhism will see through any obstacles. Why is that so? Because by learning Buddhism, people understand that everything is bound and determined by pre-destinated affinity.

戒杀生系列之—千万不可以杀狗，狗能通灵，杀狗罪孽很重

2015-07-20

【狗能通灵，杀狗罪孽很重】
1、狗能通灵，杀狗罪孽很重
男听众：狗能看见灵性，能看见佛，狗是不是也可以说是通灵的？
师父答：狗通灵的，通得很厉害呢（那为什么其它动物没，狗就很特别？）你记住，狗也相当于像鬼一样的，狗很有灵气，狗的鼻子能闻出你包里边的东西（对对对）它的眼睛可以看到你看不到的东西，所以狗不能杀的，狗的智商相当于一个两岁到三岁的孩子啊（杀了狗是不是罪孽比较重啊？）跟杀人一样。


2、杀猫狗造假充当烤羊肉的果报
男听众：第二个姓高，高某某，是杀狗、杀猫。把狗肉、猫肉、放进羊油里面浸一晚上，第二天用钢丝把狗肉、羊肉串起来掺好，卖假的烤羊肉。狗会告状的，到阎王老爷那里告状。猫不会告状，但是猫给那个烤羊肉姓高的头上的护法神告状了（所以我说头上三尺有神灵啊）嗯，记录下来了、录像录下来了。所以姓高的这个人到地府去给人剥皮、吊起来。他把狗皮剥了、猫皮剥了，那他也要被剥皮（哎呀）剥了以后，他痛死了，再阴风一刮又活了，活了以后又炮烙。什么叫炮烙呢？（炮烙知道，就是一个铁罐子，铁罐子里边烧火，让他去抱上去）嗯，阎王老爷说把这个罐子下面烧炭火，让他抱上去尝尝烤羊肉的味道（你看，烤羊肉，让他炮烙）给阴风一吹又活了，又打回原形……进油锅……
师父答：煎油锅，就是不停地给他折磨啊（对）谁叫他在人间做这么多恶事的？哎呀，真的！

3、阎王老爷的生死簿记录着哪些狗能投人
男听众：接下来我看到台子上有两本生死簿（就是阎王老爷桌子上有两本生死簿）我说：“我可以翻翻吗？”他说：“我就是要给你看的，希望你把地狱里面的事情和地府里面的事情讲给人间，让人间的恶人能改恶从善（对，阎王老爷叫你看生死簿之后，就是告诉人间那些恶人，要他们当心，要明白）对对。第一本上面的名字是“dongdong，baobao，kala”我说这是什么东西呀？他说这些都是狗的名字，这些狗要投人了。它们做了好事情，做了什么好事情呢？有的小孩子掉下河里了，它跳到河里把……（狗把小孩子救起来，等等）嗯，做了件好事情就可以投人，狗只要做一件好事情就可以投人。还有帮瞎子带路，也就是我们说的导盲狗（导盲狗，帮人家瞎子带路都能投人了）嗯，它也是投人的（哦，你看看！）还有帮孤老买菜，超市买完菜以后他拎不动，狗把菜蓝子帮他拎回去，这样的狗也是投人的（呵呵，对对，帮助孤老拿菜都是的）还有的狗突然之间把孤老的裤子拼命地往门外面拉，一边拉一边叫，那么孤老就跟着狗到门外，到门外这个房子就塌下来（哦，这是救人的狗，房子塌下来……这些都投人了）所以狗大部分都是投人的。投人之前都是要经过排队审查，把狗前世它做的功德和功过评估，如果它功过评了以后，过大，那么它投到边地和山区的贫穷的人。如果它善事做得多，好事做得多，果报好的话，它投到富人家里面（哦，你看看！）而且呢都是投到有缘人的人家家里去，也就是说他的狗可能就是他的爸爸妈妈，或者是他老祖宗。
师父答：对！就是人家说老祖宗还是投胎到他有缘人的家里（对对，所以对狗呢不能够无辜地伤害，小时候养的狗好玩，到老了把狗关在外面，让狗饿死或者是……）这些都不可以的，对狗的话要特别当心，因为狗投人特别多（嗯，有报应的）

亡夫在阳间时女朋友太多，死后险些投胎鸟！

2015-07-20 德遇佛缘

女听众：师父好，我先向师父反馈一下，1月2号我打通电话，我女儿她爸爸要被黑白无常带走了，正好当天就打通师父电话，师父说没有救了，师父也救不了，很快就会走了。最后他在第二周1月9号就走了，真的走了。49天以后，我梦见他跟一群鸟住在一起，又梦见他被拖下去，被抽打得死去活来的。当时看到很惨，头都快被打掉了，但就是不让他死，一直被抽打，真的很恐怖！（哎哟……）因为之前听师父讲过，如果在阳间女朋友太多的话可能会投鸟，所以后来我就求观世音菩萨“不要让他投鸟了”。2月份的时候我梦见他告诉我说他还要68张，要我抓紧时间给他念，说5月2号的时候他哥哥家里面会有人来接他。68张送完了以后，我梦见他穿着新衣服很开心，提着箱子就走了。是不是他投胎去了？


师父答：投人了（不用念佛教经典组合了是不是？）嗯，不要念了。我告诉你，这个就是六道轮回啊，很惨的（对）所以现在有些人还在做坏事，所以现在很多人还在自己造孽……我真的不理解，我真的觉得一个人为什么……人家说“不见棺材不掉泪”（是的。所以，我觉得因果轮回真的真实不虚，一定要相信菩萨，好好修才行。后来我觉得他可能是为了报答我，梦见他回来告诉我说我们还有一个小孩子没有超度，告诉他哥哥叫他们不要骗我还是怎么样）是啊，他是来报答你的，他算告诉你一点事情（是的，因为有些事情是这样的）我跟你说，就是黑白无常来了，基本上这个人就活不了几天了（对，刚好一个星期……）就走了，带走了（真的很可怜！都不好好修，没有办法，救不了）没办法，很多人……就是你家属的话，你想要他好，你也救不了他的（是的，师父）.

要把世间的一切都视为对你在人间的考验 。
你们做得到吗 ?

很简单的道理 , 如果你今天在人间行的是菩萨道 , 你用不着担心死后到中阴身 , 你也用不着担心走的时候下去 。
师父看见了很多人下去 , 灵魂一离开肉体 , 先被黑白无常带走 。
如果你有修 , 你可以直接上天 , 因为你在人间行的都是菩萨道 ;

如果你在人间行的是畜生道 , 对不起 , 把你拖走的时候 , 是带有钩子的那些铁棍啊 , 耙子啊 , 把你勾下去的 ;
如果你在人间已经不好不坏 , 没有做好事 , 也没有做坏事 , 你下辈子还是投人 ,说明你在人间做人还不错 , 你在人间做的像个人样 。
所以 , 在人间这个道当中 , 实际上已经勾勒出一幅六道轮回的景象 , 看看我们在人间所有的景象 , 你就知道你今后将来的去向 。

【听众网上度人，分享佛语，功德大，短时间业障从33%减到18%——Zongshu20141108 46:45】

女听众：我想问我身上的业障有百分之几？我是1988的龙。

台长答：哇！小姑娘很干净，你这个孩子很干净啊！18%，很少的（哦，前不久我有打进电话，当时您说我的身上业障是33%）哇！你怎么会一下子消掉这么多的？（因为最近我们一组人在网上弘法，然后我们都不断在网上弘法度人。）不要讲功绩了，就是说你做了功德，所以你的业障消得厉害（现在是18%）嗯，消得这么厉害，已经很好了。你要是现在死的话，你投人、阿修罗道没问题了。而且20%到25%就能到阿修罗道，你18%的话一般都能到天界了（哦，我是想要到西方极乐世界）那再努力，要10%到15%（好）。

WARNED BY FOREIGN SPIRIT FOR CHECKING ON PHONE WHILE CHANTING

March 18, 2015; A dharma friend’s repentance :

After offering the first incense at dawn, I felt dizzy and my head was spinning, I was in a state of confusion and my mind was unclear. I went to take a nap. Soon after, I felt a male foreign spirit pinning me down from behind as I was lying sideway. It was tormenting, I kept shouting to Bodhisattva and Master for help but to no avail. I couldn’t move my body and my head was throbbing. While calling for help from Bodhisattva, I tried to negotiate the amount of Little House with the foreign spirit, so that he could let me go. Even though the amount of Little House increased from 21 to 800 during the negotiation, there was no response. Just when I felt really helpless, a thought crossed my mind: ‘No matter how many Little Houses you offer me, they are useless. Your Little House has no value, it is of inferior quality'.

When I was still in the state of shock, my body started to be able to move. I recalled, recently although I was doing my recitation, I was, at the same time reading microblogs, tweets, QQ and WeChat Groups. Deep inside me, i knew that the Little Houses’ quality were inferior. Due to my indiscipline and self-indulgence, I keep repeating the mistake. This is a stern warning from Bodhisattva, Dharma Protectors and Karmic Creditor – demanding me to correct my mistake, not to be self-opinionated, be self-disciplined, cultivate my heart, recite diligently, and improve myself. That is the correct path.

I was too naïve to think that I could deceive heaven and earth, but only to fool myself in the end. I vowed to recite 27 times Great Repentance Mantra (Lifo) to repent my wrong doings. I seek the forgiveness of Bodhisattva for not putting my full heart in the practice. From now on, I will be disciplined to overcome my own evil. I pledge to practise Buddhism and perform recitation diligently. I will cultivate myself and to cross over others.

I hope all of us learn from my mistake. We must perform our recitation wholeheartedly, do not check on our phone while doing so. The consequences are too serious!

[Curiousparty]

In mathematics, we studied a concept called the “Proof by Contradiction”. E.g. if we even manage to find one single case that contradicts the original hypothesis, then the original hypothesis will be concluded to be false.

We start off with the hypothesis that there is indeed no reincarnation in this world. However, with thousands of documented cases, especially those by Dr. Ian Stevenson*[color=#FF1493] (and not to mention even more undocumented ones in the less developed regions of our human world), it is just mathematically illogical to conclude that there is no reincarnation or reincarnation is nothing but a figment of our human imagination.

*He travelled extensively over a period of 40 years, investigating 3,000 cases of children around the world who recalled having past lives. His meticulous research presented evidence that such children had unusual abilities, illnesses, phobias and philias which could not be explained by the environment or heredity.

The Boy Who Lived Before
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgOBfCrxS3U
Cameron, ever since he was just a toddler, talks about another family he used to live with, called the Robertsons. Cameron knows the names of his previous family, where they lived, and can even describe the house and the landscape of his previous home on the island of Barra, some 200 miles away. But Cameron has never been there. Doctor Jim Tucker, of the University of Virginia, and Cameron's mother travel to Barra with Cameron to find the house, exactly as Cameron described.

This six-year-old boy is called Cameron Macaulay. He is not much different from other boys of his age. What differentiates him from others is that he likes to talk about his "old mum", his former family and a white house standing on the bay. But none of them is related to his current life. The place he is talking about is a place where he had never been in this life and is on the Isle of Barra, 160 miles away from where he is living now. These things make Cameron's mother feel worried.

Cameron spoke about his former parents, how his dad died, and about his brothers and sisters in the previous life. He also said that his "old mum" was the one in his previous life. Cameron believes that he has a previous life and he worries that the family in his previous life misses him. His nursery school teacher told Norma all the things Cameron was saying about the Isle of Barra and how he misses his mummy and his brothers and sisters there.

3-Year-Old Remembers Past Life & Identifies His Murderer

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWyHuN1G1vk
A young boy remembers a past life "reincarnation" he had where he was murdered. The 3-year old correctly identified the spot he was buried, the village he was from, and the murderer. Is this proof that reincarnation is real?

In a region near the border of Syria known as Golan Heights, a boy says he remembers being murdered. At first, no one believed him.

That is, until he lead village elders to the spot where he remembers being buried. Mixed in with the group of village elders was a man by the name of Dr. Eli Lasch. Dr. Eli Lasch is known in Gaza for developing a government medical system. Lasch witnessed all of these events.

The villagers dug up the spot where the boy says his former corpse remains and sure enough there was as skeleton there. Mysteriously, a large axe mark on the skeleton corresponds to a birth mark on the boys head. The boy says he was murdered with an axe and then lead village elders to the spot where the murderer buried the weapon. Sure enough, they dug up an axe. The boy then led people to the village he was from in his past life and told them of his previous name.

When people of the boy's former home village were asked about a man going by this name...they said he had disappeared 4 years earlier and never returned.

Remember, the boy was three years old.

But strangest of all, the boy recounted exactly who the murderer was.
When the boy confronted his killer, the man's face turned a pale white and he started acting very suspicious.

Once the boy lead elders to the exact spot of his corpse and the murder weapon the killer gave in and admitted to the crime -- for which he ended up being charged with.

Is the boy a product of reincarnation? Are we all perhaps reincarnations of our past lives?

Metaphysics Q&A 152 – Issues encountered when promoting Buddhist teachings

2012-12-14
Q152: Master Lu, I have brought forth my mind to promote Buddhist teachings, but I have not been successful in my attempts. I would also have headaches and become ill every time. Is it because my approach is inappropriate, or is it because I should not be doing this?

A152:

There are several reasons for being unsuccessful when promoting Buddhist teachings to others:
Insufficient spiritual energy. If this is the case, then we need to enhance our Daily Recitation and eliminate karmic debts in order to better help ourselves as well as others.
The negative karmas of the other party may be too severe. This can lead to obstacles in realising their true nature.
The karmic condition of the other party is not yet fully mature. It is said that everyone has Buddha nature, however, the karmic condition for some people is yet to arrive.
The karmic connection between you and the other party may not be strong enough, resulting in the other party not agreeing with what you say.
When we promote Buddhist teachings to others, we need to be mindful with our approach. If after half an hour of interaction, the other party still shows limited interest, then it would be possible for the foreign spirits of that person to occupy us. In addition, if the other party had generated negative verbal karmas during the interaction, then we would also share some of the responsibility.
As a beginner with limited spiritual power, you can start by giving out Master Lu’s books or radio program recordings, and briefly describing Master Lu’s transcendental ability. You can also share Master Lu’s website and encourage people to read about the inspirational experiences of other Buddhist followers.
Try to avoid having selfish thoughts when promoting Buddhist teachings. When we help others with the mind of mercy and compassion, we would be able to avoid leakages during the accumulation of virtues.
It would be best to have a sincere heart when promoting Buddhist teachings. We can share our own experience regarding Buddhist practice, even if our experiences may be limited. With a sincere heart, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas will bless us with more and more efficacious experiences.
With limited spiritual power, we may experience physical discomforts if the other party has severe negative karmas. However, we always have to give when we help others, and this giving has great virtues in return. By accumulating virtues incrementally in our lives, we would receive positive returns in the end. Nothing comes for free. So we have to continue to help others despite potential complications.
Please also keep in mind that we can sometimes experience discomforts, and it is not entirely because of the negative karmas of others. It could also be our own. When things are uncertain, we can recite more Heart Sutra (Hsin Ching) to improve the condition, as the recitation of the Heart Sutra provides immediate benefits. It would be best to avoid reciting the Great Compassion Mantra (Ta Pei Chou) too many times as it may create conflicts with foreign spirits. We can also recite the Eighty-eight Buddhas Great Repentance (Li Fo Ta Chan Hui Wen), and recite Little Houses for our Karmic Creditor. Please say the following prayer to Guan Yin Bodhisattva, “May the Great Merciful and Great Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva protect and bless me, <your full name>. I will offer <number of> Little Houses to the Karmic Creditor of <your full name>. Other karmic debts will be repaid by <full name of the other party>. May Guan Yin Bodhisattva protect and bless me, <your full name>, grant me safety and good health.” Generally, we can offer 7 Little Houses to our Karmic Creditor.
We can say the following prayer before we promote Buddhist teachings to others, “May the Great Merciful and Great Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva protect and bless me, <your full name>. I will be promoting Buddhist teachings to others. May Guan Yin Bodhisattva grant me spiritual power and energy, so that other foreign spirits would not come to me. I will teach people how to practise Buddhism and perform recitations.”
If we experience physical discomforts during or after our promotion process, you can say the following prayer, “May the Great Merciful and Great Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva protect and bless me, <your full name>, so that I can help <full name of the other party>. I am promoting Buddhist teachings and performing virtuous deeds. May Guan Yin Bodhisattva have mercy and compassion, so that <full name of the other party> will attain realisation, and the foreign spirits of <full name of the other party> will request Little Houses from <full name of the other party> directly instead of coming to me. ”
It is once said that the Buddha can only help those with karmic affinities. Each person has different levels of cultivation, different experiences in Buddhist practice from previous lives, and different amounts of negative karmas. If we are not able to do something or help someone for the time being, then it would be best to respect the karmic flow and let it go.
