《修行人出現違緣,是將來解脫的一種標志》(上)
平時總聽人抱怨:「我學了這麼多年的佛,可違緣很多多,是不是學佛沒加持力?」並不是這樣!
《金剛經》已告訴你了,本來你來世會墮入惡趣受苦,但通過持經功德,消除了這一切的罪障,如《解脫經》云:「雖有墮惡趣罪,亦經頭痛能淨之。」
有些剛學佛的人認為有違緣不吉祥,自己很不願接受,其實這是淨除業障的一種驗相。多芒寺的喇西堪布聽說有修行人生病了、事業出現違緣了,就經常引用這個教證,並說他們出現違緣是將來解脫的一種標志。 所以,我們發了大乘心的人,遇到違緣更不要太在意,來世地獄餓鬼的痛苦在今生已經報完了,這是多麼好的事情啊!
曾經戒賢論師晚年的病苦難堪,文殊菩薩告訴戒賢論師:「你過去二十世前是國王,因為暴虐人民,死了應該下臼杵地獄去受苦。為什麼你沒墮入地獄呢?因為你在臨命終時聞佛號、經聲,所以就沒下地獄。之後,轉世做和尚,而且是做了二十世的持戒和尚,累世冤家債主找不到機會向你要債。為什麼今生找到你呢?因為你今生修持太好,加上前二十世的功德,今生一斷氣就直升兜率內院,等將來彌勒菩薩下生人間時成佛,不再受輪迴。那你二十世以前的那些冤家債主怎麼辦呢?所以今生叫你把臼杵地獄的重罪,轉為重報輕受,你現在雖然沒下地獄,這病苦的滋味,就如同地獄一樣的痛苦。」
戒賢論師聽完了文殊菩薩的話,就說:「我受不了,我想自殺。」
文殊菩薩說:「如果自殺,就會掉到地獄去,直接受地獄的苦報。」
從這一點,你們要提高警覺,有修行的人,如果自問平生沒有犯戒,到了晚年要是受了一點病苦,可能是了生死的情況,一定要忍耐下來,「安心受報」,加速修行,必能出離三界。
佛在經中也說了:修善,違緣多;造惡,順緣多。
我們行持善法的時候,要麼身體不好了,要麼工作不順利了,要麼家庭不和睦了,這都是一種必然規律。比如學習佛法,學得越好,魔王波旬就越不高興,千方百計地制造違緣,但如果想辦肉聯廠,或造一些惡業的時候,魔王波旬就特別高興,總是為你提供順緣。現在是末法時代,護法神的能力比較脆弱,魔眾的力量非常強大,想造惡業的話,所有魔眾眷屬都會幫助你。
假如福報不夠,就會為魔所持,干起壞事來無比的順利。在古代的時候,當一個人中了蛇毒,中醫會讓他嘗舔白礬,如果嘴巴感到苦,說明還有的救,如果感到甜味,那就說明中毒已深,無救了。
修行人也是如此,當我們做了不如法的事情,或者做了一個錯誤的抉擇,一切變得順利的時候就要警惕了。

-----------------
Case 1
Today I went to TTSHosp. for follow up eye check after they found (6 weeks ago) that I have clots in the some of the veins in my right eye.
The eye consultant was surprised and very glad that the clots in the veins have all cleared and gave me a follow up appointment 3 months later.
I told him that I have been taking black fungus (Mok Yee in Cantonese) for 6 weeks which he personally accepts under "holistic medicine".
I also gave him an exercise disc which I brought back from Guangzhou which he was very happy to receive as he lacks exercise and his cholesterol is also high.
Case 2
A herbal treatment for High Blood cholesterol
I want to share a secret for treating high cholesterol.
Three weeks ago l went for a cholesterol check.
To my surprise, it was above the normal range which should be less than 5.2 mmol/L.
My reading obtained was 6.6.
I had been consuming a lot of red meat and lamb recently.
After consuming for two weeks, l had my cholesterol checked again and found that my cholesterol level fell to 4.70 mmol/L.
My pharmacist said that even cholesterol medication will need 1- 3 months to take effect.
She was very surprised and said it is a miracle.
Review:
I immediately followed an advice of a friend who told me about Black fungus ( Mok Yee ).
He had four blocked heart arteries, over 90 percent blocked.
His cardiologist advised him to go for bypass surgery, failing which he would suffer an imminent heart attack.
His sinseh (Chinese physician) friend advised him against surgery as the procedure would be messy, painful and expensive. He followed the advice of his sinseh friend by consuming daily.
After consuming boiled days, he went for an angiogram.
His heart specialist was surprised and shocked that his arteries were all cleared of any blockage and it would not be necessary to see him for another 10 years!
My observation is that juice is not only effective in treating high blood cholesterol but also helps to bring relief to joint paints, arthritis and poor blood circulation.
The internet info. claims that reduces blood clot, preventing thrombosis, atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease, and cancer.
Black Fungus contains abundant proteins, ferric iron, calcium, vitamins, rough fibre; the content of protein is equal to meat.
Thick Black Fungus
Natural remedies for high cholesterol
High blood cholesterol is a very common condition mainly due to our unhealthy diet.
It is not a disease but a negative health condition that may contribute to many forms of diseases, especially cardiovascular diseases.
This article is mainly on how to reduce high cholesterol, and not about cholesterol.
