================================

老花及近視有救了‏

明眼穴 - 重要又好用
防疲勞∕白內障∕好睡眠–別忘告訴朋友哦!!

這是一位60多歲的師兄和我分享他原有老花及近視,做這個穴道按壓半年後去驗視力已達1.2,
現在他已不帶眼鏡有空就按明眼穴。工作離不開電腦的人需要這個妙方!祝您健康!



明眼穴、鳳眼穴、大空骨穴
上了年紀,容易老花眼,試試看明眼穴的按摩,保證您會耳聰目明。
作離不開電腦的人,需要這個妙方!假如我們常常會感到眼睛會疲勞,
但又不是睡眠的時間,這時我們可以利用穴道的按摩法,來舒緩眼睛疲勞的症狀。
在我們的姆指上有三個相鄰接的穴道分別是明眼、鳳眼、大空骨,
明眼、鳳眼能夠改善眼睛疲勞和急性結膜炎,大空骨則可改善一切有關於眼睛的症狀。
平時眼睛容易疲勞的人,每天要刺激這三個穴道兩次。
刺激的方法是,用另一手的拇指和食指夾住,以拇指的指甲分別對這三個穴道施予刺激,
只要以稍微感覺到疼痛程度的力氣來指壓即可。

這是項簡單的按摩方法,當工作的休息時間、或是通車的空檔,均可自行操作。
眼睛疲勞往往不容易入睡的人,如果施予上述的刺激來消除眼睛的疲勞,便可輕易地入睡,
以上的方法還可以抑制老人性的白內障。

希望大家天天健康!

祝你健康快樂

A Bucket Measure of Food

Hurray, back to the Dharma class season and start of my blues-chaser classes again.

And what a relevant topic on the 1st lesson for Glutton me:P
Sliming advice by the Buddha...

A Bucket Measure of Food (Samyutta Nikaya,Kosalasamyutta, Sutta No. 13)
At Savatthi, Now on that occasion King Pasenadi of Kosala had eaten a bucket measure of rice and curries. Then, while still full, huffing and puffing, the king approached the Blessed One, paid homage to him and sat down to one side.
Then, the Blessed One, having understood that King Pasenadi was full and was huffing and puffing, on that occasion recited this verse:

"When a man is always mindful,
knowing moderation in the food he eats,
His ailments then diminish:
He ages slowly, guarding his life."


Now on that occasion the brahim youth Sudasana was standing behind King Pasenadi of Kosala. The king then addressed him thus:"Come now, dear Sudassana, learn this verse from the Blessed One and recite it to me whenever I am taking my meal. I will then present you daily with a hundred kahapanas as a perpetual grant."
"Yes, sir." the brahim youth Sudassana replied. Having learned this verse from the Blessed One, whenever King Pasenadi was taking his meal the brahim recited:
"When a man is always mindful,
knowing moderation in the food he eats,
His ailments then diminish:
He ages slowly, guarding his life."


Then King Pasenadi of Kosala gradually reduced his intake of food to at most a pint-pot measure of boiled rice. At a later time, when his body had become quite slim, King Pasenadi of Kosala stroked his limbs with his hand and on that occasion, inspired utterance:"The Blessed One showed compassion towards me in regard to both kinds of good - the good pertaining to the present life and that pertaining to the future life."

(extracted from pg1 of reading material of PKS Sutta Discussion class)
(Pardon is sought for any misinterpretation/misunderstanding of Teachings)------
What a wise advice on Quantity and Balanced diet.
Wish someone is there always to remind me when I take my meal too...
though no rewards will be granted...:P

Besides above, there are also wealth management advices being discussed, I look forward to more life tips in coming lessons...:-)
