阿難化瓜

一日，佛陀帶了迦葉尊者與阿難尊者兩位侍者一同行腳，近中午時分，一行人感到有些口渴，便在路邊的大樹下休息。佛陀見不遠處有塊瓜田，就請阿難尊者前去化緣西瓜讓大家解渴。

阿難尊者聽從佛陀的指示來到瓜田，見到田裡有位年輕女子在看守西瓜，於是阿難上前客氣地說道：「施主，我的老師釋迦牟尼佛，行腳到此地，又飢又渴，您是否可以布施個西瓜，讓我回去供養佛陀？」阿難尊者話未說完，那位女子便惱怒地拒絕了阿難的請求，並惡言惡語地要阿難趕快離開瓜田。

尊者失望地回到樹下，向佛陀報告方才的過程，佛陀不但不驚訝，且微笑著對迦葉尊者說：「迦葉，換你去化緣！」阿難心想，那女子都已經不肯布施，迦葉尊者又怎能化緣到西瓜呢﹖

迦葉尊者聽到阿難尊者化緣不成的消息，自己心裡也沒多大把握，但因受了佛陀的囑咐，且心知佛陀的一言一行皆有著甚深涵義，便起身前往瓜田。沒想到，瓜田中的女子一見到迦葉尊者，就很高興的站起來向尊者頂禮，並頻頻詢問尊者從那裡來，要往那裡去？是否需要食物以供充飢？迦葉尊者還未開口化緣，女子即主動挑了一顆最好最大的西瓜供養尊者。阿難見迦葉抱著大西瓜回來，心中正感到納悶的時候，佛陀即為迦葉尊者和阿難尊者說明兩人過去生的因緣。

數萬大劫以前，迦葉與阿難同為出家眾時，兩人經常結伴去行腳參訪。一天，阿難走在前，迦葉在後，行經的道路上正好有隻死貓，由於時值盛夏，死貓的屍體已出現腐臭的味道，且身上滿是蟲蟻，正在嚙食著死貓身上的腐肉。阿難一見到這隻死貓，立刻摀住鼻子，匆忙地離開；爾後，迦葉看到死貓，即慈悲的為牠三皈依，並在路旁挖了個坑洞，將貓埋葬，祝願牠能早日超生善道。

說完過去生的因緣，佛陀便對兩位尊者開示道：「瓜田中的那位女子就是過去的死貓投胎轉世而來，因為當時迦葉為其皈依祝願的關係，所以得為人身，因此她一見到迦葉就心生歡喜。而阿難因為一念嫌惡的心，所以不但化緣不到瓜，反而還遭受辱罵。」聽完佛陀的開示，兩位尊者更對因緣果報的道理深信不疑。

省思

佛法中常云：「未成佛道，先結人緣。」要想擁有光明順遂的前途，就要靠平時廣結善緣，具足善因善緣，則作任何事情都容易成就。

半個餅

有一個人，覺得饑腸轆轆，
便買來七個煎餅充饑。
望著熱騰騰的煎餅，迫不及待地吃將起來，
一個、二個、三個……
當他吃到第六個半的時候，肚子就覺得很飽了。
突然間，他覺得很後悔，
用手打自己的嘴巴，說道：
「吃了最後的半個餅，就覺得飽了。那麼先前吃的那六個餅不就浪費了？唉！真是笨啊，早知道吃了這半個餅就能吃飽，應該先吃這半個餅才對啊！」

改寫自《百喻經》

*****************************

省思：

常常，我們也會嚮往最後輕而易舉成功的那一幕，而忽略之前需要多少晝夜辛勤、胼手胝足的努力，就如同吃餅人一般！

夫婦賭餅

從前有一對夫婦，
先生名叫阿莫，太太叫做阿木。
有一天，
他們的鄰居送給他們三塊大餅，
夫婦倆各吃了一塊，還剩一塊，
而兩人都很想自個兒獨享這一塊大餅。

這時，先生阿莫就說：
「阿木啊！既然我們都想吃這一塊大餅，那麼就來做個約定好了。」
阿木說：「什麼約定啊！？」
阿莫說：「從現在起我們都不能說話，誰先說話就不能得到那塊大餅。」
阿木說：「好，為了那塊大餅，我絕對不說話，咱們走著瞧！」
約定好之後，阿莫和阿木就真的不再說話了。

過沒多久，
正當兩人為了大餅不說話的時候，
忽然有一個小偷，闖進他們的家，想要竊取他們的財物。
但是夫婦倆為了大餅，誰也不吭聲，
連喊一聲「有賊啊！」都不願意，
就這樣眼睜睜地看著小偷將手飾、金銀財寶搜括一空。
而小偷見到兩人都沒任何反應，
心生僥倖，又見美色當前，
於是，就在阿莫面前戲弄起阿木，
阿莫看了無動於衷，繼續堅持下去，並不打算救阿木。
阿木急了，叫著：
「救命啊！救命啊！阿莫！你竟然為了一塊大餅連老婆都不要了。」
小偷嚇跑了，阿莫卻視若無睹，
還坐在那兒高興地喊著：
「哈！妳先開口說話，大餅就是我的了！大餅是我的了！」

改寫自《百喻經》卷第四（六七）

*************************************

省思

我們是否也常常為了追求財色名利，
而置自己的法身慧命而不顧呢？

哲理

人不是因出生而尊贵，不是因出生而卑贱;

是因行为而尊贵，是因行为而卑贱。

喝水可以止渴,
有这个人喝水可以止渴, 那个人喝水不能止渴的吗?

火可以照亮,
有可以照亮着一边，但是照不亮那一边的吗？

因果報應實錄：史某捐錢拒色得善報

作者：曉輝整理


獻縣有個姓史的人，名字不記的了。他為人不拘小節，落落剛正，對那些行為卑鄙齷齪的人十分蔑視。

一天，史某從外回家，見村中有一家夫婦、母子正在相擁而泣。他便上去詢問緣由。這家人的鄰居告訴他：「是因為欠下了豪強的債，豪強催逼還債，不得已只好把妻子賣給人家抵債。因為夫婦倆感情很好，加上小孩子還沒有斷奶，更加使人可憐，所以十分悲痛。」史某就問欠了多少錢，那個村民回答說：「欠了三十兩銀子。」又問：「你的妻子賣了多少錢？」答曰：「五十兩銀子，給人家作小妾。」「還可以贖回來嗎？」村民說：「賣身契已經寫好了，但錢還沒有付，當然可以贖回。」

於是，史某拿出七十兩銀子給了村民，說：「三十兩還債，四十兩用來謀生，不要再賣你的妻子了。」村民夫婦倆感激不盡，便殺雞做菜，款待史某。酒酣之時，丈夫抱著孩子出門，並以目示意他的妻子，讓她與史某同床，以報答他的大恩。妻子會意，便用言語挑逗史某。

史某正色說：「史某半世為盜，半世為捕役，殺人不眨眼。但如果在危難中污辱良家婦女，我是絕對不會幹的。」吃喝完畢，他掉頭就走了，不發一言。

半個月後，史某所居的村子夜間起火，當時正是秋天收穫的季節，家家屋上屋下都堆滿了柴草。很快，許多茅草屋、秸桿被大火吞噬。

史某估計一家沒有辦法逃脫，就與妻兒在家中閉目靜坐等死。他在恍惚間聽見屋頂上有人喊道：「東嶽王有令，史某一家被豁免！」話音剛落，屋後的牆壁突然崩塌，史某領著妻子，抱著孩子，從火海中逃了出來，好像插著翅膀。

火熄滅後，計算出村中有九人被燒死。鄰居們都合掌說：「前些日子還笑話你傻！沒想到七十兩銀子可以贖回三條命。」

我認為，這件事多虧司命之神的保佑，捐錢之功佔十分之四，拒色之功佔十分之六。

Have u heard of Karma? This post is about 因果报应.. I had watched some cartoon about the 释迦牟尼佛 in Batu Pahat. I only watched about 4 stories but that had enlightened me a lot. I find that I am still a person with a lot of 尘 与 垢 in my heart. I will try to burn the discs and make into small video clips and share with you..

Please read the 因果报应 stories from this website.. I am looking for more websites.. Please feel free to recommend me some websites on the Karma... Thank you very much..

Oh yeah.. I just went to take an injection and currently having some medicine to cure my back pain as it is getting worse day by day.. I guess I can only go for blood donation 3 weeks later (assume I finish the medicine this week).. I had wanted to go on this weekend but I think I couldnt make it anyway.

I will inform you all to go together if u r interested. Try to donate the blood whenever u r still eligible.

dedicated to the special one

It has been 3 days since the special one received the gifts. There were two thanks, 1 nice gift and 1 appreciate mentioned in the email. In addition, there is one blessing sentence and one advice for me. I am searching nowhere for a word, like or love.

The email, promptly after I read, had given me mixed feelings. I was happy that you received the gift (finally). However, I wonder if the appreciate in my term has the same meaning of the special one. To me, appreciate means you know how much effort he put in and you really appreciate him for doing so. However, you may not accept or like it. Appreciate sounds like the receiver is being grateful, only grateful. Thus I feel that my effort did not break the ice of ur heart. It may just warm you up, but fail to reach my goal.

After replying the email, I have been waiting for the special one to reply my email or online MSN and have further communication. In contrast, the special one did not show up. I had sent sms, email, msn msgs to the special one but I just lost the communication with the special one.

I am waiting for an answer, obviously - a clearer answer. You can tell me either I have chance, I dont have chance or you need more time to consider. I just need an answer, instead of avoiding me. Perhaps I am too paranoid, perhaps I am too pessimistic. The 3 days waiting in front of my computer despite having back pain is breaking my heart day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute, second by second. I began to feel that I am pestering you, i am harassing you and yet you r scared of hurting me and choose to avoid me for the time being.

it is even more hurting of doing so. Perhaps u r busy, perhaps u r not at home, but since u can online into ur friendster, why didnt you chk ur email or login ur MSN? Perhaps this is really too coincidence, or perhaps.. u really dont know how to face me, or telling me to give up on u.

I have heard friends complaining how thick skin are the suitors are, how much are they scared of the suitors and how pestering the suitors are. I dont want to be like the suitor they mentioned. Ppl told me not to give up. I dont want to give up either. However, I afraid you feel that I am pestering you. That would widen the distance in ur heart.

The files in the mp3 took me hours to prepare, especially the recordings couldnt be played together in the music files due to the file format. It took me hours to look for the converter and yet it still could not be played in music files until I used two different coverters to convert twice into mp3 format. It looks easy but I would want to let you know I really put in my effort into it. I know you will read this blog, just a matter of time.

I am not giving up on u until u tell me to stop. However, I will not contact you from now on because I have a strong feeling that u r avoiding me. I hope u can tell me ur decision in a day's time. you can give me either Yes, No, or let me have more time to consider. BUT PLS, not avoiding me. it is hurting me.......

No matter what is ur decision. I will still bless you and wish you can complete what you want to do, solve ur problems easily, safe from any danger and be happy. The last gift of the valentine's day is going to reach you soon.

Miss you, the special one..

S.O.S

I saw a new era of advancement, I saw a glimpse of light on my self confidence, I saw a better of me in the future.. I was looking forward to accept all the challenges, I thought my life would be better.. and I was so grateful to have them looking closer and closer to me.

Beyond the god-will, I was plagued by injuries & sickness.. have been sick for a week but that is just peanuts compared to my injuries.. I injured my back while playing basketball @ my cousin's house 6 days ago.. After applying some medicine (in paste form) and paste another 膏药布。I felt I was pulling out from injuries.

The situation got worsen for the past two days.. I am scratching my head for the root cause. I could still hang on yesterday, but not today, especially after my working hours.. It was so pain of doing any motion, including sitting down, standing up, stretching my legs, bending my body.. The pain, that made me scold foul words in the end, indeed slashing my heart..

Coming back home, all of them have fallen asleep. I dont want to open their bedroom's door because the two kids will be easily waken up by it. They might start crying and very difficult to be calmed down by their parents...

Who are there to help me apply the medicine in paste form and paste the 膏药布 for me? I would love to do it by myself but just beyond reach.. Sitting down here and the pain is killing me off. I am now making an S.O.S call.. Who could come and help me?

After working half day on saturday, I need to look for an effective TCM doctor. Please help to solve my pain.. I am suspecting that I might have slip disk if I dont get it cured a.s.a.p..... If this comes true, I will need to reconsider my plans and my future.. dont you agree?

Happy V@lentine's D@y

If I could save time in a bottle
the first thing that I'd like to do
is to save every day 'til eternity passes away
just to spend them with you

if I could make days last forever if words could make wishes come true I'd save every day like a treasure and then again I would spend them with you

if I had a box just for wishes
and dreams that had never come true
the box would be empty except for the
memories of how they were answered by you

but there never seems to be enough time to do the things you want once you find them I've looked around enough to know that you're the one I want to go through time with

Happy Valentine's Day everyone.

For those who are single, wish you can enjoy next year's valentine's day with the one you love..

For those who are attached, enjoy this year & the future's valentine's day.

**Tulips**
The meaning of tulips is generally perfect love. Like many flowers, different colors of tulips also often carry their own significance. Red tulips are most strongly associated with true love, while purple symbolizes royalty. The meaning of yellow tulips has evolved somewhat, from once representing hopeless love to now being a common expression for cheerful thoughts and sunshine. White tulips are used to claim worthiness or to send a message of forgiveness. Variegated tulips, once among the most popular varieties due to their striking color patterns, represent beautiful eyes.

一日金句

生活有两个悲剧，

一个是你的欲望得不到满足，

另一个是你的欲望得到了满足。

Dont Stare at me

Yes. It is you that I am referring to, lecher.

As the train approaching Outram Park station, I was standing nearby middle of the door, a girl stood beside me.

Then suddenly a hand was put onto the door, I was thinking, "WTF, no space & u want to squeeze to the front, what a noob!"

When I turned around, I saw that lecher was standing very close to the girl. His right hand was put down just few cm away from the girl's butt.. his "indecent exposable -thing- was touching on the girl's big hand bag.

Trust me, the girl doesnt know that UNCLE at all!

I didnt turn away my fiery eyes on him. Thinking that lecher might do sth on the girl, I allowed the girl to go after me as the doors opened. The lecher wanted to follow her immediately but I quickly dash out of the train and banged him away from the girl. Yeeee HA!!!! U GOT IT!!! IT WAS ME WHO BANGED U, STUPID FKING IDIOT LECHER!

The lecher was so angry and kicked my right foot twice (gently). Oh, perhaps it was just accidentally.... (whatever!!!) So I slowed down my pace and blocked his way to make sure the distance between him and the girl was getting further and further.

Finally the guy walked past me and made a big stare at me.. Woo Hoo.. felt so good of making fool of him!!!! he kept turning back and stare at me throughout the walkway for train transfer to North East (NE) Line.

Nothing much then, I went to the front of the train and he went to the rear of the train. Happy New Year Lecher..

*PS* GIRL!!! beware of urself!! he was 'enjoying' the moment that his body had a contact with ur bag and yet u realise nothing!!
