Source Salt from a House Who Hasn't Seen Death
This Youtube shares 4 stories of Lord Buddha, I like to elaborate to you one of the story which I particularly like.
During Buddha's time, a woman brought a dead baby and requested Lord Buddha to revive the child.
Buddha said he would do what was necessary, however, he would need a vital ingredient to bring about the resurrection.
Lord Buddha requested the woman to source salt from a house who has never seen death. The woman went through house by house, started with great joy, but to no end she could find such a house.
At the end of the day, she went back kneeling in front of Lord Buddha and said that she understood the lesson - she is not the only person in the world who have suffered the loss of a loved one.
The moral of the story: Everyone has to go through pain in their life - pain, loss, depression are part of life.
Be grateful today and always be compassionate to others and try to understand the pain of others - everybody has problems in life.

Eyes Wide Shut: MalayMailOnline: MCA told to shut up
Eyes wide shut...
Not being appreciated and respected, was humiliated instead.
This is a good case study - at the end of the day, even own partners will look down on you, despise you.
Eyes wide shut - it is so obvious but yet you couldn't see.

Don't you feel heavy holding this bucket ?
Someone told me this story yesterday.
A man approached his teacher and started complaining non-stop, he kept on and on, the teacher listened and didn’t attempt to interrupt him. At one point, the teacher gave him a bucket full of water. Without much hesitation, the man took the bucket, holding it and kept on complaining.
Not long after that, the man was exhausted and slowed down, the teacher intervened and asked “don’t you feel heavy holding this bucket full of water ?” The man replied “Yes, very heavy.” The teacher said “ then why don’t you put it down ?”
From then on, the man put down all his sufferings and continued with life.

Plant reaches out for the sun
Plants will stretch out for the sun.
Notice that the edged-out parts were motivated by the sun - the plant is positioned in a place where sunlight doesn't cover the whole area all time time.

Selling Product vs Selling Services
If you are selling product, you have to think about what other things are short at , then your product is supposed to help with the situation.
If you are selling services, do not reinvent the wheel; just go with the trend.

不要赢,也不可以输
这个社会是冷血的。
当你成功,比别人有钱,别人会妒忌你。你赢,别人输。
当你失败,别人会责怪你,说你不对,你差。你输,别人赢。
其实,跟他们无关。
我认为,我们不要赢,也不可以输。

Author/physician Shigeaki Hinohara On Longer Life
His diets:
For breakfast I drink coffee, a glass of milk and some orange juice with a tablespoon of olive oil in it. Olive oil is great for the arteries and keeps my skin healthy. Lunch is milk and a few cookies, or nothing when I am too busy to eat. I never get hungry because I focus on my work. Dinner is veggies, a bit of fish and rice, and, twice a week, 100 grams of lean meat.
His Schedules:
My schedule book is already full until 2014, with lectures and my usual hospital work. In 2016 I'll have some fun, though: I plan to attend the Tokyo Olympics!
On Materialistic:
Remember: You don't know when your number is up, and you can't take it with you to the next place.

His Advises:
- There is no need to ever retire, but if one must, it should be a lot later than 65.
- Share what you know.
- To stay healthy, always take the stairs and carry your own stuff.
- Science alone can't cure or help people

福报的颜色
福报真是一种很特别的东西。
福报可能是佛教的名词。
于我的人生经验,福报是很重要的。
你如果有大福报,很容易就有大成就。
也许很多人会说,为什么某某人,抽烟了一生人,还是没有问题?但是现在的医学不是强调抽烟对健康有一定的影响?
我觉得这也是福报的奥妙。
福报不足,必须积福。
千万不可以享尽福报。
如何积福?除了做善事,我觉得我们还可以多贡献。就是多付出。
佛光山的三好运动也可以积福。 说好话,做好事,存好心。
千万不可以享尽福报。

Got Brain, No Money - Also Difficult
If you makes a lot of money, but no brain, also difficult.
If you got brain, but makes no money, also die.
Must maintain balance.

心结与修行
一个人有心结,就起烦恼,不喜了,苦了。
也可能会堕了,变坏了。
一个人有心结,可以尝试修行。
请看『修行要修心』。
为什么修心后就会解心结呢?
因为你得到慈悲心后,你就会放下,得到定力,智慧,了解心结的来龙去脉,那时你就会自己解开心结。
比如,念经是修行活动之一,不是念经就会自然解心结,是因为有念经,就有修行,就有修心,就有慈悲心,就能放下,就有定力智慧。
自己医病不好吗?
心结一天不解,可能永远都拖累你 (我不敢肯定)。
修行不是迷信,不是逃避。
修行是慈悲。
我认为慈悲心,应该可以解很多的心结。
所以,你在佛堂,看见我在跪跪拜拜,不要笑我,因为我在修行。
那,我是不是有心结还没解呢 ?哈,你去猜猜看。。你的答案不一定准,我也不会告诉你。

如何修心 ?
佛教有一种东西叫慈悲心。
什么是慈悲心?
我的理解是;对众生有慈悲感。
慈悲心不是同情心。
了解别人的痛苦,控制自己的欲望,横顺众生,为别人带来欢喜,自己吞掉不愉快的能量。
我们要了解,有苦才有喜,有喜就有苦。
很难解释。。。
当我做一件自己不愿意的事,但是如果可以为一些人解苦,得喜。我苦了,我也喜了。。。
因为我愿意,因为慈悲比其他重要。因为我的苦,不比他人之苦。
还是很难解释。。。
再来一次。
如果狗有感情,你见到狗在流泪,你会不会去安慰它 ?会, 因为你有慈悲心。因为你理解,这是有情世界,因为你有情。因为你不忍心看它伤心。
你不但会安慰那只狗,你还会跟它做朋友。

如果你可以用一切,来换一样东西
我曾经说过,一个人出家,为什么会出家?是因为他或她,了解到一个道理,就是。。
“一个人可能可以做一万样东西,但是,总有一天,他或她还是会跑回原点。”
这个理论也许是对,也许是错。但是如果你觉得是对,那你还会不会去做那一万样东西 ?
但是我又领悟一个理念。。
如果你可以用一切,来换一样东西,你愿不愿意?
当你有这种感觉时, 我觉得你应该去做吧。
