农历七月的冥思

进入农历七月星洲处处皆在祝祷,岛国的空气里有香烛的味道。在新加坡叫中元节也是盂兰盆节汉传佛教在这天以法会供养三宝普渡苦难众生,强调对祖先的敬仰,报答父母养育之恩,传扬孝亲之德。

(https://www.sohu.com/a/153059703_765806)

盂兰盆节蕴含深厚的文化和精神意义,带有深厚的感情。与儒家崇尚孝道的伦理传统相符,因此得到中国历代帝王提倡而盛行不衰。南北朝时代,始兴盂兰盆法会,唐朝时期,法会活动呈现兴盛,官民共乐。在信奉佛教的东亚国家流行,如中国, 韩国,日本。它跨越时间,不分地区,规模盛大,将古老的信仰,独特习俗和家庭交织在一起,促进了文化的延续。

(https://fo.sina.com.cn)

盂兰盆节,是佛教为农历七月十五,又称为佛欢喜日,起源可追溯到佛陀的忠实弟子目连(梵语:Maudgalyayana) 救母。《盂兰经》称目连得道后,可观三界,以神通力见亡母生饿鬼道中,连忙用钵盛饭,喂母亲吃。然而,刚送到嘴边,就化为灰烬,母亲仍然十分饥饿。他向释迦牟尼佛述说此事: 虽她是我一世的母亲,但我愿救她脱离苦海,以报养育之恩。佛说光凭他一人之力无法解救,须仰赖供养众僧的威神之力,要目连于七月十五日,备好食物和用品供养众僧。当此之日,目连之母得脱饿鬼之苦。经文最后说一切大众皆可依照此法。

                                  

今年是甲辰年,因每个月都有一个生肖,七月也是申月,十二地支中的"申",属金。如果你的有利五行是金,那么恭喜。 申的本意是闪电,它的甲骨文是道闪电,慢慢演变成双手去接闪电,意思也变成延伸,与更高的精神层面连接。


一道闪电划破天际雷雨过后,我们的祖先惊讶的发现,树木因雷电着火,他们在灰烬里发现食物,渐渐开始学会保留火种,驱赶野兽,学会耕种吃煮熟的食物,人类真正的文明从学会利用火开始。祖先看到天气变化的时候会产生雷,并且雷的出现是不可预料,力量强大的,认为雷是上天给的意志和灵感,并且用双手去接受上天的旨意。


上天降下旨意,从此人类一脉生息绵长兴旺,创造了几千年的灿烂文明。这样的旨意是顿悟,对现在生活彻底的改变。对于华人来说,七月是一整个上天雷电会带来很多灵感的月份。你是否能了解和抓到上天给你的意志?

这个七月,我们也应该用双手去冥思,你可以面向云大师的风水画或书法,用左手持檀香珠子,右手用朱砂磨白端,右手每磨一圈说出你的祝祷,左手就推出一颗珠子。




你可以请檀香,檀香可以帮助人得到很多灵感,九运二十年的必备品。与你的旺财翡翠和沉香相辅相成,旺你的偏财。


在家中有利位置放白端旺贵人,还可用来冥思。


翡翠钟馗是旺财馆从成立到今天的大热门。钟馗刚直不惧的神威为很多人带来信心。有关他传说的神秘力量曾经给很多客户灵感。


除此之外,你可以佩戴沉香,沉香有吸收转化的功能。

这个七月,你冥思了吗?

Why You Need At Least 5 Lotus Sandalwood, Moving Forward into Period 9?

How many sandalwood do you have? One piece or two pieces? Not enough! You need at least FIVE! Why?

We are in the Period 8 now. It is now in the month of June, mid of 2023 and we are moving into Period 9 in 2024. This is real soon! In the year 2024, we will officially move into the Period 9 cycle, which is another whole new 20-years cycle. This is the period when the Earth changes to the Fire element. Earth is stable, Fire is volatile, so we will expect a lot of changes coming to you fast and furious and uncertain!


With Period 8 ending in just a few months time, and Period 9 on the way, you will need more pieces of sandalwood. Sandalwood is a MUST HAVE for Period 8, and of course, even more important for the upcoming Period 9 from 2024 onwards! 


Sandalwood is to take care of human-related matters and you will need creativity and a whole lot of inspirations. The coming period 9 can be challenging if you do not take good care of the human-related matters. Beside these benefits, sandalwood can also boost your indirect wealth too.

Having one piece of sandalwood is good! But that is not enough if you want to tap on the best potential of Period 9 to prosper even more! You will need at least 5 pieces of sandalwood!



The FIRST piece is just like the KEY that opens up your Period 9 personal prosperity wherever you go. So, make sure you have this KEY with you all the while. Wear it with you!

The SECOND and THIRD pieces are to boost your DIRECT and INDIRECT wealth sectors in the house. Every year, there are 2 most important auspicious sectors: the direct and indirect wealth spots. For each of them, one piece of sandalwood. 

檀 is made up of 木 and 亶.  亶 means full of grains, bountiful harvest. Therefore, sandalwood 檀, a kind of wood that brings bountiful harvest, overflowing prosperity.

Then, the FOURTH and FIFTH pieces to be placed on two more annual auspicious sectors. There are at least 2 more annual auspicious sectors. It is for either MARTIAL or LITERATI benefactors, or both, or FAME, or LITERATI (STUDIES). There would be other fengshui items to place at these sectors, but to really get the full burst of Period 9, have a sandalwood at these sectors too. In this way, you create a FORMATION.

Yes you can, and you should! 


You will need at least 5 pieces of sandalwood stepping into Period 9, and some of them are to create the fengshui formation for you to tap the best potential that the chaotic Period 9 has to offer. 

Start preparing in advance for Period 9 when you still have a little bit of time. Yes, only a little bit! Do the formation now. It needs time to take effect, do not wait until you are just left with only weeks away from Period 9. It will be too late!

Check out these videos from Mr Kan Facebook Live: 

🤜 Why do I need sandalwood for Period 9? 
 
🤜 How many sandalwood should I prepare for Period 9? 

Start preparing now, your 5 sandalwood moving into Period 9 九运! To harvest your best in this upcoming once in a lifetime cycle!

Contact Mr Cola at 8137 8024 for your Period 9 formation.

Zodiac Guardian of those born in the year of Rooster 🐓: Acalanatha Bodhisattva 不动尊菩萨

As the name suggests, Acalanatha Bodhisattva 不动尊菩萨 represents strong and firm determination ("不动" = unwavering). Through his angry and fiery fierceness, he scares away your doubts, obstacles, bad energy.


Acalanatha 不动尊菩萨 is also a fighter, a warrior. And actually, he is the wrathful manifestation 忿怒化身 of Vairocana Buddha 大日如来 (the BOSS, remember?).




Vairocana 大日如来 represents the great sun, truth and order. We have a saying in Chinese: 佛都有火 -- even the Buddha will have fire (get angry). And that's when Acalanatha 不动尊菩萨 manifests. He is the warrior, the steadfast guardian. He is the wrathful manifestation. He is the FIRE.


Legend has it that Acalanatha 不动尊菩萨 trampled on the heads of those who arrogantly reject the truths and compassion of Vairocana 大日如来, subduing them, restoring order to the universe.


Sometimes, when some people cannot accept truth and logic, the FIRE must burn.

For the Lotus version, that's why we carved mountains behind Acalanatha Bodhisattva 不动尊菩萨. Steady as a mountain. Steadfast. Strong.


Worthy to take note, the peacock (upgraded-Rooster), the main subject-matter of Master Yun's fengshui paintings, has a similar meaning as the Acalanatha Bodhisattva 不动尊菩萨.

The peacock is compared to the Bodhisattva path (in "The Wheel of Sharp Weapons"《修心利刃轮》), when one upholds the high standards and integrity and not be moved by mediocrity and evils.


May those who receive blessings (and protection!) from Acalanatha 不动尊菩萨 gain worthy strong benefactors that will fight and win your wars, and be blessed with unwavering success of high standards.

Zodiac Guardian of those born in the year of Dog 🐶 and Pig 🐖: Amitabha Buddha 阿弥陀佛

If Vairocana Buddha 大日如来佛 (zodiac Guardian for those born in the year of Goat and Monkey) is the ultimate form, like the Chairman or the big boss, then Amitabha 阿弥陀佛 is the CEO. He is the master of "Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss 西方极乐世界".


"Wait. There's more than ONE Buddha?" When we started talking about the zodiac Guardians, this was one of the FAQs.

Yes. There is more than one Buddha. Long story.

That's why, hopefully, through the connection with serial dramas, more well-known tales and classics, and linking them to a corporate hierarchy (Chairman, CEO...), we can recognize them better.


Amitabha 阿弥陀佛 was the big boss who set the whole "Journey to the West"《西游记》in motion. He is also the boss of the many Bodhisattvas we talked about, Guan Yin 观音, Manjusri 文殊菩萨, Samantabhadra 普贤菩萨, Mahasthamaprapta 大势至菩萨...


Is he the same one who subdued the Monkey King 孙悟空 and banished him under the Five Finger Mountain 五指山?

Yes. Same Buddha.


When we say: 逃不出我的五指山 (can't escape from my control/palm/five-finger-mountain), we are referring to this specific episode.
Amitabha 阿弥陀佛 is the leader, and he vows to elevate people to the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, a realm of "Immeasurable Light and Life 无量寿、无量光".


For the Lotus version, you will see that the background is full of "The Wheel of the Law (dharmachakra) 法轮". It represents many things, of which: the path and direction to a blissful life.




May those who receive blessings from Amitabha 阿弥陀佛 be blessed immeasurably, and never let a worthy opportunity slip from your hand.

Zodiac Guardian of those born in the year of Goat 🐐 and Monkey 🐒: Vairocana Buddha 大日如来佛

If you are born in the year of Goat or Monkey, your Guardian Buddha is, what I would say for simplicity sake, the BOSS: the Vairocana Buddha 大日如来佛.


And if you find the Boss's name familiar, you might be recalling movie "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons"《西游·降魔篇》(2013), directed by Stephen Chow 周星驰. In which during the "final boss scene", Tripitaka 唐三藏 called upon the Vairocana Buddha 大日如来佛 to subdue the Monkey King 孙悟空.


One hand. SMASH.

We see the same SUPERPOWER at the end of 2004's《功夫》(Kung Fu Hustle).


The 大招. The killer-combo.

Vairocana 大日如来 and his "Buddha's Divine Palm 如来神掌".


The one hand that subdues evil, and returns light and justice to the universe.


His name refers to the sun 太阳. And that's why, for the Lotus version, the rays of the sun are his aura.

Many a times, we really need the power of the great sun to chase away darkness, illnesses, evils.


May those who receive blessings from the Vairocana Buddha 大日如来佛 achieve wealth and success as powerful as the sun.

May you also achieve your grand ambitions swiftly and gloriously.

Zodiac Guardian of those born in the year of Dragon 🐉 and Snake 🐍: Samantabhadra Bodhisattva 普贤菩萨

The interesting thing about the Lotus version, once again, look closely at the background, is full of footprints. 

And the footprints are imprinted with the Buddhism swastika 卍, symbolizing the auspicious footprints of the Buddha.

Some sources say that a person makes about 35,000 choices daily, both conscious and unconscious ones. Of course, some are more important than others. BUT also we know, life's destiny is an accumulation and tally of good and bad choices. 

Even with great knowledge, one is not definitively certain that a choice is entirely correct. You might have seen others making so terrible choices, but somehow by a twist of fate, the results turned out to be wonderful.

What we can seek, is to be blessed at the steps we take. Every footprint we make on our journey, let it be auspicious, and blessed by amazing energy and luck.

Watch the video and you will know why Samantabhadra Bodhisattva 普贤菩萨 sits on an elephant.

The Buddhism swastika 卍 is pronounced as "wan" is Chinese, which is similar-sounding to "万" (meaning: ten-thousand, plenty, all). "足", which refers to footprints, also means abundance. When your footprint is imprinted with 卍, it means abundance in every solid step you take.


May those who receive blessings from 普贤菩萨 Samantabhadra Bodhisattva be 卍事足 (万事足) abundant in all things.

Zodiac Guardian of those born in the year of Horse 🐎: Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva 大势至菩萨

Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva 大势至菩萨, together with Guan Yin and Amitabha Buddha (Guardian for DOG and PIG), they are the 西方三圣 Holy Trinity of the Western Paradise. 


As such, Mahasthamaprapta 大势至 is often considered as the "third Buddha", right after Guan Yin.


Mahasthamaprapta 大势至菩萨, the name literally means "arrival of the great strength". Because of his ultimate light of wisdom, wherever he goes to, the heavens and earths will shake.

It was said: "When this Bodhisattva walks, all the worlds in the ten directions shake...when this Bodhisattva sits, all kingdoms of seven jewels sway" (“此菩萨行时,十方世界,一切震动……此菩萨坐时,七宝国土,一时动摇”,《观无量寿经》). 
Now that's a true influencer of great power.


That's why the Lotus version has scepters 权杖 carved on the back, representing great strength, great power, great benefactors.


Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva 大势至菩萨 sandalwood is of great importance for the south sector of the house fengshui in 2023. With 
Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva 大势至菩萨 sandalwood around, you will always have the 大势 in the things you do!
