聆聽,欣賞,接納
你懂身邊人嗎? 利益關係和情感關係外,他是個什麼樣的人? 有什麼的故事和追求? 你懂這世界嗎? 家庭教育,學校認知,和媒體描述外,這世界是如何運作的?跟我是什麼關係? 你懂自己嗎? 不同的社會角色,和面具背後,我到底是什麼?在無邊的生命洪流裡,和多元世界中,我要成為一個什麼樣的人? 自己都未認識清楚時,就認為自己了解其他人,及對其他人作出隨意的批判和評價,是自以為是的無知和莽撞,除增長我慢和製造混亂外,一無是處。 更好的態度,是保持謙虛和尊重的心態,去聆聽,欣賞,和接納。這樣做,會帶來知見的增長,心量的擴大,和生活的和諧美滿。 老子云:知不知,上(知道自己不知道,為上);不知知,病(唔知道自己不知道,扮知道,是病)。

lunchtime meditation 問答
問: 屋企人耐不耐嘈交,如果睇法/立場/我相/執著都是短暫虛幻,是否可以一概不理? 答: 前半啱,後半要再深究。雖然睇法/立場/我相/執著是虛幻,但沉醉其中嘅人嘅感受卻是很真實的(對於他們,和感受著他們的你)。怎樣面對,要睇你採取什麼立場,和應世智慧如何。 問: 嘗試同佢地講道理,無人聽,反而更反感。 答: 小乘人,可以處理好自己煩惱偏見,柄埋深山裡頭,做到逍遙自在。但在城市中,面對周邊人既煩惱偏見,就要用大乘的工具先至有辦法處理。 問: 大乘什麼工具? 答: 首先是六道波羅蜜: 布施:放開對寧靜和安靜的執著 持戒:拒絕受瞋恚的狀態影響 忍辱:不抑壓,坦然面對和接受眾生的顛倒執著 精進:正念,正思惟,正行 (正不行) 禪定:定力,穩定,專一,覺知 般若:無我智,不二智 有六波羅蜜基礎後, 讓內在生命逐步開展至十波羅蜜: 方便:利他目標上,靈活還用身口意去幫助 願:肯定自己人生目標,和在屋企人關係上的定位 力:意志,毅力,耐力去實踐自己的目標和定位 智:世間智慧 (介不介入,誰介入,幾時介入,如何介入) 六度基礎有了後,後四波羅蜜是大乘人內在生命所自然開展出來,不是用大腦想出來的。 其後同學們有大量的世間智分享和討論,非常精彩。不屬吹水綺語,屬觀心處世工程。

Nobody could make you better, not even time and experience which are merely ingredients; what actually sustain your growth, is your strong will, cultivation, virtues, and your…

What happens during meditation?
Breath returns from forceful to natural. Mind sharpens to a point of focus. Energy retained from scattered wastefulness. Healing of body happens through its natural wisdom. Processing of mental content happens per ones level of consciousness. Body-mind returns to its highest balance for the moment.

Mindful Rejuvenation
Energy follows mind, when we follow the random emotions and thoughts, our life energy is disipated, and thus is the feeling of exhaustion afterwards. When bring back our attention to the moment prior to thought and emotions arising, stories die down and energy is retained. Such is the rejuvenating mechanism of mindfulness.

七月
這世界到底有沒有鬼神? 傳統中華文化是肯定的,雖然不會建議你胡亂來。 實質上,心物一元,心誠則靈。一般人沒有定力和覺力,所以覺知不到而已。 外國有沒有? 當然也有,不過習俗信仰不同,所以出現時間和形式不同。 同人生有什麼關係? 太上感應篇云:禍福無門,惟人自召;善惡之報,如影隨形。 召善神抑或惡神,善鬼抑或惡鬼,就要看我們的身口意行為了。 其實,每一刻都是七月,每一刻都是新年。
