Yesterday Saturday morning, I went to my friend's YURI house, we did YOGA. I think is really relaxing. Yesterday we spent our time groceries shopping, taking my brother to WING CHUN KUNG FU, and going to visit one of the dharma master-shi fu in JING JONG. Master name is "JIAN RU". She is the first dharma master who gave me "WU LIANG SHOU JING" and the first dharma master who let me walk into the BUDDHISM PATH. If you've time, visit this website, is really great information

When I've time, I will study dharma, but I've been slacking off pretty much nowadays, but I do believe I'm very lucky to encouter 純正的佛法, and I believe the statement by dharma master 純正的佛法決定能夠幫助人明心見性,都能幫助人成就無上菩提,所以都叫正法,都是佛法.
I realize a lot of times, people are more attentive to the rituals, and didn't really use dharma dew for the heart and mind, is very sad to see that situation. We have to continually practice our mind and perfecting it, that's a real importance.
Buddha taught the truth of the Universe, and see the truth of the universe, hence he sees we re-incarnated for many life times, and unable to escape birth, death and samsara. Although buddha taught suffering, this is only the first stage, he also taught you observed the arrising of suffering, then you discover the source of suffering, then you find the solution to solve it...then it will be end of suffering. In English, is call the "FOUR NOBLE TRUTHS".
I know this world, a lot of sad things and unhappy things will prevail, but we have to take it as a pinch of salt, and able to let go of things when we need to, and not let other circumstance affect our STILNESS in our mind. This is utmost important.
I find that when we can find a balance, a peaceful state and stilness in our thought, we will have wisdom to deal with the worse situation that will happen or prevail.
Yes, recently, my granma's brother pass away too. Is sad to see people passing away everyday in this world, but is a fact. BUT don't see them as really passing away..they're still with us actually. Their soul will never die, and their spirit will always be there. Is just the body is no longer suitable for living, they have to find a new life and adventure to begin. So, everything has infinity and karma "緣生緣滅".
We know each other is also "YUAN" that bring us together ^^
We come and go all the time, but able to meet you is my pleasure ^^
But I'll never die..cause my soul is emerge with the Universe, I'm the universe and the universe is me ^^ When I leave this world, the 5 elements of our body which is made of "金﹐木﹐水﹐火﹐土", all will originate back to the universe. That's no REAL "ME" or "I". This body that we claim as I, is just a illusion that made up of Karma. When we pay off this Karma, and our jail sentence is over, will start another new life accordingly to our newly created Karma. Interesting universal law isn't it??
So, don't be afraid of death, and don't be sad about death, cause is just a process of life. When you're afraid, is because your mind is not still and You've "I"....and then someone can harm you. But infact, all this are illusion of the mind, all thoughts arise due to our own self creation- "一切心想生﹐ 一切為心造, 快樂, 悲傷也由心﹐一切有你選擇﹐判斷﹐決定 而能落實". With real understand, wisdom arise, and your mind we'll be back to it's original state, and you'll find your true buddha nature" real state of STILNESS ..not like roller coaster, going up and down non stop daily. So, observing our thoughts is a way to see how our cultivation has improved. Also, seeing it rising and ceasing is an interesting fact, but please don't attach to your thought, cause the chain of thought will bring you in circle again. It will mostly be the source that will bring you happiness and suffering.
In summary, if we're able to understand how our mind works, able to master our mind, wisdom will arise, and stillness of mind will be achieve and you'll find peace and happiness wherever you go...no matter what happens...
Wishing everyone can find their internal treasure, all within one's heart, the treasure of stillness and happiness.
With Great Metta--(meaning great Loving kindness)
