INTRODUCTION
Seputih Bhajan Unit organized a Tree planting cum Family Day on June 20 2010. Over 40 members participated in the event. Most of the members came with family members (spouse and children).

LOCATION
The site of the event was at the Buddhist Temple at Sg Choh, a few miles north of Rawang. The Temple has just built 2 new buildings and a new road about 500 meters long within the temple area was also ready for use.

TREE PLANTING
Seedlings – A few members had started raising 2 varieties of ornamental palm trees - Fox Tail and Manila Palm seedlings from seeds since 20 months ago. We have no idea of where to plant the seedlings until about early June when we discussed with a member of the Temple about tree planting. It was then realized that the Temple needed trees to be planted along the road side and also on the sides of the car-park and open space.

Preparation work started immediately in early June by a few members in getting the area to be ready, buying tools and fertilizer. Markings with sticks for planting holes were done as well.

Early on June 20, more than 40 members gathered at the Temple around 8.30am for a briefing on what were the trees to be planted and how to plant them. A lorry with about 180 tree seedlings was delivered to the temple site. The morning was nice but getting hot after 10 am. The ground was hard and difficult to dig. The team worked very hard and by about 11.30 am, about 110 trees were planted. The remaining trees were planted by some workers a couple of days later.

The Team had lunch at the temple and after a tour of the area for those who were new to the place, all went back very tired but satisfied!

FEEDBACK
Many have commented that it was a meaningful day where we did something for the environment! Some have asked when to come back to tender to the plant to make sure that they grow properly. A date will be fixed in July for members to go again for ‘maintenance’ work – weeding, ground leveling, watering, removing of stones, etc.

A Big Thanks to Bro & Sis Cheah, Bro & Sis Ang

2010-04-12T12:21:00.001+08:00

Dear Bro & Sis Cheah, Bro & Sis Ang,

I, on behalf of Seputih BU, would like to say thank you very much for the Cosmic Engergy Studies Course which we have gone through from Friday to Sunday. I believe all the members who have undergone the course would share the same feeling I have towards the four of you and the course. We are very grateful that you have imparted such a wonderful knowledge and techniques to us.The benefits are doubtless.

Besides the knowledge and the techniques you have imparted, as the coordinator of the BU, I wish to thank you for giving our BU members be it choir or Bhajan groups and friends a great opportunity to be together under one roof to share this brotherly and sisterly closeness. It has been indeed a long time which we do not have the chance to closely interact with each others; as for each event we have had, we just rush in and out of the premise due to time constraints. This course has indeed given our brothers and sisters a chance to be really together.

As on Friday evening, we have a total attendance of 44 persons for bhajan and all joined in the first session (thanks to Bro Cheah's benevolence). A total of 28 registered and attended the full course. However, I strongly believe that for those who did not come for the full course due to time or other committments else where; whatever was heard and learned on Friday has been great and was not lost even if no course was completed. There have been seeds planted in each attendtees, as concepts and ideas like flow of energy, silent sitting, selfless seva has been frequently mentioned and exemplied by Bro Cheah on Friday's session. Last but not least, I would like again to say a Big thanks to Bro & Sis Cheah and Bro & Sis Ang who are great selfless love models to all our brothers and sisters. We look forward to seeing you again.

Sai Ram.

Kim Lian

续克林顿，陈冠希，老虎伍兹后；新加坡名导演梁智强登上性丑闻头版。一世英名，毁于一旦。

妻子虽然出面相挺，接受他的“道歉”，据说已经原谅了丈夫，崩溃昏倒在记者招待会后。

在名丑闻榜上，梁导并非第一位，也肯定不会是最后一位。翻版性丑闻肯定会不断再次上演。

世尊赛吧吧曾经说过：人类无论是男人或女人之所以无法达致人类应有的卓越颠峰；原因有二。一是男人无法抵制自己的淫欲。二是女人无法“原谅”（别人的过失）。

世尊赛吧吧的第一句话印证历历在目。古今中外，伟大的男人们，丰功伟绩，到后来却栽在自己的纵容淫欲网里。

女人呢？我初次读到梁导的新闻，脱口而出：“什么？原谅了他。这是一樁无法原谅的事，可以把它忘了，但却不可以原谅。”然后，才暗自思量，我不也在应证世尊吧吧的第二句话：女人无法“原谅”？

曾经和三两友朋闲谈时；我就发表过：“有时候，虽然我不能原谅某些人的作为，不过我会选择把它忘掉，。”当时友人就说：“如果你没能原谅，就表示你没能忘记，说不原谅但可以忘记是假的。”“是吗？”是我当时的回应。这句话虽然有在我脑海一掠而过，但我也没多加辩论或思索。谈论也不了了之。

如今，此情景再度出现；我也不知在如此情景之下，为妻者是否应该选择“原谅”？还是选择“忘记”？而我们能不能真的“原谅” 或“忘记”？

但是肯定的是，我很不喜欢当事人的解释和‘道歉’。当事人的解释使我感到，越是要解释，越叫人感到他还没觉得“错”，还在找理由为自己辩解，还把自己当为受害者。可能只是深深的一鞠躬，我反而会觉得真诚。世尊不都也说：“这是男性最大的弱点吗？” 我们不都是凡夫吗？

或许，身为凡夫俗子的我们之所以还在这红尘凡海打滚，就还屈服在人类弱点的淫威下；无法自拔；无法拋弃兽性。

世尊，请领导我们修身养性；向真，向善，向美---达致人性的卓越吧！

我们的团队......还有一位仁兄忙的没来拍照
见牙不见眼.....一定是合作愉快了

.....对面山上的姑娘.....

巴巴曾说过，工业发达，工厂林立，释放出来含毒气体是破坏氧层的罪魁祸首。长此下去置之不顾，后果是灾难性的。众所周知，树木吸炭吐氧，因此，爱护大自然，种树护林，是净化大气层其中一项最好途径。巴巴还说自然世界，神和人的关系密切，不是一般科学家能够了解的。

27-02-2010(星期六) 早上, 我们也不落人后，加入了这项“减碳”行列。我们参与的这项种树运动是大马赛巴巴的一项爱心环保活动，自０９年４月开始，计划８5，０００棵树苗培植工作就己展开了。近几个月耒，其乎每个周末都有进行种树活动。

在本区域，种树地点是在雪州八弟兰带/Bukit TAGAR附近的Raja Musa森林保留地，面积有23，000公亩。由吉隆坡沿着南北大道北上大约一小时路程，见Bukit TAGAR的路标转左直上至T路口转左行大约五公里处，就可抵达这块政府森林保留地的某地段。

该地段是一片湿地，约525公亩，本来是大片连绵无边的浓密的森林, 有许多高大的樹木品種包括MAHANG，MERANTI，JELUTONG等等，现在都不见踪影了，取而代之的是一片连着一片的灌木荆棘覆盖着的烧焦了地表层和残破树杆。周围的沟水混杂了烧黑的焦土和黑色的草木灰都变成黑水了。我在想，森林局是干什么的？森林保留地受到如此摧残，也没人管吗？超过500公亩的天然森林，经过超过10年的滥伐烧芭的洗礼，就如此落得一片焦土，看上去，像生了疮的“癞痢头”，此情此景叫人情何以堪。

怪不得地球生气了，气温和海平面都上升了，臭氧减少了，天灾人祸不断，现在是人类以功补过，让地球村尽快变成青山绿水的时刻到了。巴巴说得对，人类应为臭氧层的破坏扛起责任，植树护林，维持人类和自然的平横，急不容缓。

这一次的种树运动，赛菩提中心共有四人参与此项活动（包括我），整个活动参与人数以印裔友族具多，也有少数马来友族参加，粗略估计大约有两百人吧！

虎年开工，果然“虎气腾腾”，我们和几位印度赛兄拿着铁锨，戴着手套，好不威风，有搬运树苗的,有挖坑的,有栽植的，一行几十棵的树苗栽种没两下工夫就种完了。原以为 “公德圆满”，可“打道回府”了，不料却是“革命尚未成功，同志仍需努力”，还有一行也是一百五十棵的树苗等候着我们栽种。在一片无树荒野劳动，日高无风，体能消耗奇快，开始觉得呼吸加重，双脚乏力，又因地面脆弱不堪，双脚常因此陷入泥中，行步艰难，体力一时支撑不住，惟有在小道边的矮丛边暂停休息，但却越歇越累，一坐就不愿起了。有八个字可以形容这种状况，就是“人老体衰，虎头蛇尾“。

惭愧之余，眼球转右遥望，远处有蔡金莲，转左，有徐金文，前者在坐着，后者依着铲柄在站着，都歇息着，虎头蛇尾，何止我一人，心里一种幸哉乐哉的感觉由然而起。（天生坏心眼，抱歉）

不过，还好有人事前做了多项方便种树的准备工作，包括劈荆斩棘，开辟种植路径，插立竹支作为在种树地点标记，真感谢这些无名英雄为我们提供搬抬树苗，挖土插苗的方便。尽管如此，松弛地表，高低不齐，时而泥足深陷，时而树根跘脚，举步之维艰，叫人喘不过气来。庆幸的是我们有配备齐全的穿着，尤其是长靴对双足起着良好的保护作用，不然分分钟会被尖锐树枝刺伤。
植树造林，保护水土，净化环境是千秋环保工作；所谓前人种树后人乘凉。我们今日种树，也算是对前人的感恩，表达对大自然的关爱，虽贡献微不足道，但在人们对环保绿化意识还是薄弱时刻，却意义深远。有人说造桥铺路是修福，种树何尝不是为后代积福呢。

森林除了吸的是废气吐出来的是新鲜空气外，还能用树根抱住泥土，防止暴风雨带来的泥石流失。雨季，它吸收雨水；干旱季节，树阴阻挡水份蒸发，阻缓水份释放，让山泉瀑布，川流不息，让人类社会的每个家庭，也能享受到源源不断的水供。妇孺皆知，人类极度依赖水份和氧气才能生活，但也有人不知道水份和氧气极度依赖青山而存在。中文字“休”清楚表达了‘人’和‘木’的亲密关系，古人智慧让人感叹，从字面上看，‘人’因有‘木’而得休息，缺‘木’就休息不成了！大地也因缺'木'而欠’水’，形成了'沙'地, 沙地接而水绝而成’漠’, 试问在’沙漠’般恶劣环境下, 能不忙于搬迁吗? 还能’休闲’地过日子吗?

巴巴因而苦口婆心的除了叫我们种树，也鼓励我们少用纸张或其他木制产品，因为木的需求量下降，自然就伐木需求就会相对减少。并鼓励为人父母者，每年都要参与学校主办的种树节的活动，如学校没办类似活动,也得自发性的带领孩子们由自家住处开始,小规模的自己进行,从中灌输孩子们生态教育，使生态环保意识真正地在孩子们头脑中根深蒂固。

近几年来，地球开始生气了，世界各地的天灾人祸是地球在向人类警告，人类不能在破坏地球了。别以为大马的地理环境特别安全，不会发生严重天灾而忘记了地球的安危了。如果邻居起火，你家还能安全吗？

珍惜现在！活在当下！休闲之余，让我们齐心协力为生态环保献出了自己的一份力量。人在做，天在看。天会知道我们衣衫里面混杂的汗水是为环保而流的。
SAIRAM

佛陀成道日 (腊八节)

2010-01-22T15:48:00.004+08:00

琴弓玄太松弹不起, 琴弓玄太紧会断,

不松不紧才弹得好。

今天是佛陀成道日,也是腊八节,刚好读了一些短文,剪接些要点和大家分享。

话说释迦牟尼成佛之前，曾经修苦行多年，饿得骨瘦如柴，体弱无力, 但是都没结果。有一天打坐时,听到有人唱歌；让他突然顿悟“琴弓玄太松弹不起, 琴弓玄太紧会断,不松不紧才弹得好”。太子得到很大的启示,明白自己过去过着奢华放纵的生活,现在的修行又太苦太紧绑 ;应该追寻不苦不乐的中道生活。於是太子决定不再苦行。太子離開苦行林，卻因體力不支而昏厥於尼連禪河畔，被經過的牧羊女搭救，送他乳糜食用。太子吃了乳糜，恢复了体力，便端坐在佛陀伽耶一株菩提树下入定，于中国的农历十二月八日成道。

夏历以十二月为腊月，所以十二月八日称作腊八。中国汉族地区，将这一天作为释迦牟尼的成道日，于是腊八成了佛教节日。佛教传入中国后，各地兴建寺院，煮粥敬佛的活动也随之盛行起来，尤其是到了腊月初八，祭祀释迦牟尼修行成道之日，各寺院都要举行诵经，并效法佛成道前牧女献乳糜的传说故事，用香谷和果实等造粥供佛，名为腊八粥。这便是腊八粥的来历。其後此風氣漸廣傳至民間，一般人亦於此日製臘八粥，而成為我國民間風俗之一。在佛典也有記載，舉出十種食粥之利益，即：
(一)資色，資益身軀，顏容豐盛。
(二)增力，補益衰弱，增長氣力。
(三)益壽，補養元氣，壽算增益。
(四)安樂，清淨柔軟，食則安樂。
(五)辭清，氣無凝滯，辭辯清揚。
(六)辯說，滋潤喉舌，論議無礙。
(七)消宿食，溫暖脾胃，宿食消化。
(八)除風，調和通利，風氣消除。
(九)除饑，適充口腹，饑餒頓除。
(十)消渴，喉舌霑潤，乾渴隨消。

在「佛陀成道日」這極富深意的日子，
愿与大家學習佛陀精進追求真理的精神，追寻中庸的处世之道。

明年今日我们也煮些臘八粥吧！

请别丧失希望

2010-01-06T17:37:00.001+08:00

当云彩掩藏了太阳，
生活幽暗无光，
行善却仅引来批评，
请别丧失希望。

当责任负担增重，
幼年编织的梦想，
被压迫，遥不可及，
请别丧失希望。

当没人了解您，
艰苦难忍，
厄运重重，
寂寞吞噬您，
请别丧失希望。

当膜拜，虔诚，持斋, 守戒，，
供丰神明的爱，
仍然没回应
请别丧失希望。

在今生或者前世所作的善行，
所有艰辛奋斗的亲神之道，
从未徒然
因此,
请别丧失希望。

一个小奇迹

有一天我放工回家，像往常那样从手提袋拿出钥匙，想打开家门。当我拿出钥匙时，才发现悬挂在钥匙扣的牌子掉了出来（这钥匙扣是我在2007年在印度与Baba 共庆华人新年时所收到的纪念品。悬挂在钥匙扣的牌子，一边是Baba的塑像，另一边是个 “孝”字）。我拥有这个钥匙扣已有一段时候，非常的珍惜它。以是我打算把这牌子扣回钥匙圈，却发现我根本无法把牌子扣进钥匙的悬垂，因为这悬垂根本没有开口处，也没有破裂，照理牌子是不可能掉出来，但牌子确实的掉了出来，我始终弄不明白怎样会发生，到如今还是一个谜。。。。

幾个月前Brother John與 Sister Irene举行了一个家宅巴赞,大家满心欢喜.随后他俩夫婦热心鼓吹思菩提中心赛兄弟姐妹个自也分別在自己家里头耒个家宅巴赞,既能唱赞圣歌,緊緊靠攏BABA,也能联誼,以实际行动缔造一个赛家庭, 金文賽兄與金莲賽姐马上响应.

17.7.2009晚间7时始,各赛兄弟姊妹及宾客都陸续來到金文賽兄與金莲賽姐的家宅,，兴高采烈的气氛扬溢…刚從古晉飞耒的Brother Wee也正好趕上了这一场與BABA有约的金文賽兄與金莲賽姐家宅巴赞.

就在每一首赞歌里,尽是愛的表露…..

就在每一张脸庞上,尽是被爱的欢愉….

就在这一場家宅巴赞, 人與人,人與神的关系被促进拉近了….

金文赛兄感慨时光易逝,一晃间5年已过,那第一次在自家的家宅巴赞还記忆犹新；同时也感恩BABA恩寵厚赐让他一家安乐幸福

深为BABA的爱所觸使得金莲赛姐哽咽表白我常埋怨这个那个总以为自己做了那么多,BABA到底知道不知道?今天这么多的人的到来我家参予巴赞才使我明白若不是的力量萬萬不能齐全BABA给我的实在是太多了

五十岁那年,发觉每逢吃热气腾腾的麵食时,我脫下近视眼镜,老公却戴上老花眼镜,好不滑稽,适逢妹妹鐳射了眼睛,也鼓励我除掉眼镜,我心里怕怕,但一想到BABA绝对不会让我变瞎,就不再有一刻的怀疑.

回到吉打老乡,有戴眼镜老朋友前來向我打聽如何鐳射眼睛,只聽惠莲笑说:”不要乱冒险,我们和圆美不同,他有BABA保祐,我们可没有.”大家笑成一团.

现在回想起來,不禁发觉到虽然许多人都相信有神但却不相信这神会看顧他.

是不敢相信? 还是不肯相信?或是选择不去相信?

BABA 奇特之处在于他强调我们大可不必试图去暸解他只要打开心扉去體验他就行了. 居然诚如他所說 "神是愛活在愛之中", 那么我们何苦执着去暸解神? 我们去體验爱不就成了吗?

常常就在巴赞中, 就只在一刹那體验到BABA 就在我身边一刹那的暖流让我感受到BABA 给我的关愛我就快16.07.2009古晋赛兄Bro. Wee 叙述他第一次闯入赛中心正好人们正在唱着圣火歌聽到声声鐘声欢欣喜悦油然升起内心感动有想哭的感觉與冲动这大概就是體验到愛體验到神的一剎那

SATHYA SAI BABA 有求必应

2009-06-03T08:43:00.003+08:00

SATHYA SAI BABA 有求必应

今天5月30日傍晚，不可思议的事情发生在我身上，那就是原本已失踪影的钥匙再出现,失而复得的过程太奥妙神奇了。

首先，应该从这刻儿说起 :

当我从睡梦中睡醒时，突然想起妈妈把我从槟城穿回家来的那件长裤拿去洗了，裤袋里有我槟城宿舍的钥匙，不知妈妈在未洗这长裤时是否已把钥匙掏了出来, 我赶紧去追问妈妈有没有看到裤袋里的钥匙，妈妈却说没有呀，我就开始有点慌了。妈妈随即把头探进洗衣机里找寻钥匙，在她身旁的我就把手伸进刚洗毕的长裤的裤袋里搜索,可就是遍找不着.

急得团团转的我和心有不安的妈妈又去查看屋旁的水沟，钥匙是否有可能已从洗衣机水管排冲出来落进水沟里? 结果仍然不见钥匙…..

我真的是慌张了，彻底检查昨天从槟城携带回来的旅行袋和手提电脑包NOTEBOOK BAG, 翻啊翻啊的，检查了好几次，甚至把NOTEBOOK BAG里所有东西都翻倒了出来，再把手探伸进去摸啊摸，把BAG上下用力摇动，却也没听到一丁点钥匙敲击的任何声响。

又思索起昨晚我驾车出门和一般旧同学约会，当时不正是就也穿着那件从槟城穿回来的长裤? 我记得我曾把手机和钥匙就放在同一个裤袋里，想想该不会是掏出手机钥匙也随着滚了出来不声不响掉在车里吧?

即二话不说，飞跑就往车里去找，找遍了每个角落，就是见不着我的钥匙……我快崩溃了。

又想想昨晚在会见同学时是曾有把手机从裤袋里掏了出来，也该不会就掉在那儿吧?就赶紧驾车到哪儿去找，又去昨晚的停车位找，都找不着…... 我真是完全没策了!

驾车回家途中, 一路上我不得不断的喃喃念着 : “BABA BABA，求求你，快救救我，快快帮我找回钥匙，把它变在任何地方让我找到。。。”

又一面向BABA诉苦哀求着: “BABA如果我再找不到钥匙我就糟糕了，回到槟城又不能开门，房门钥匙也不见了，好担心好伤心。。。”

最终我像许愿的说: “BABA如果这次BABA 把钥匙变出来给我，我就从此相信你 !” 因为以往我向BABA 要求某些东西而得到时，心里都会说该不会是巧合罢了吧。

我接着就去TAMAN SAGA 那边曾停过车的地方去，因为昨晚载朋友回家适逢有2辆消防车追赶着，被逼泊车在路旁; 所以再去那儿看个究竟，找了找，也遍寻不获不死心的我又跑到SIMPANG KUALA 的巴士站找（昨晚下巴士的地方），都没有见着我的钥匙…….

太沮丧了,也失去了信心……

只得转身驱车回家，嘴里还是不断的念着 : “BABA, 我把所有的希望都托给SAI BABA 了….” 我心想，如果BABA真把我的钥匙变了出来，我就真把这事件写上部落格。

一回到家门，我再次到水沟去寻找 ; 接着又再次去检查长裤，检查旅行包，再进去房里检查NOTEBOOK BAG……

不可思议的事情发生了! 当我一打开NOTEBOOK BAG，钥匙竟然出现在NOTEBOOK BAG里!

我拿起了这把钥匙，全身发麻了，因为刚找遍了，里边都没有任何钥匙呀!

我告诉妈妈，妈妈却说刚才我出去水沟找寻钥匙时，她也进房来检查我的NOTEBOOK BAG，她怕我糊涂没找到，帮我检查了2，3遍，还是见不着。

妈妈问会不会是我自己放进去，我说不可能，想来想去，还是不可能，因为从槟城回来时，我确实把钥匙放进裤袋，这是我的习惯，回槟城前才会把钥匙放进NOTEBOOK BAG，想想，昨晚8点回到家，冲凉后就去同学会。过后载朋友回后就回家，然后就马上睡觉了。我从没拿出钥匙，也没有用电脑，而且，早上妈妈拿我的裤子去洗，中午2点多我才打开NOTEBOOK BAG用电脑，怎么可能放钥匙进去，也都没有想过钥匙的事，而且在彻底翻找时都没发现任何东西，空的。

寻获钥匙之处。。

我想应该是BABA听到我以诚恳心向他诉说，就把它变在一个角落让我看到吧。。非常的感谢BABA。。

居然已经答应过BABA,所以能找到钥匙，现在就写上部落格与大家分享。。

把这过程告诉别人，他们应该会觉得是巧合吧?

不过对我而言，这是BABA所赐的奇迹。。

麦强诒赛兄在22.05.2009巴赞的 “赛法分享”向大家叙述从原著: Radio Sai Listeners’ Journal, Vol 6, Issue 9, Sept. 2008 (马来西亚沙迪亚赛理事会中文组翻译成中文)采取的一则故事 :

理发室

一位男顾客走进理发室去理发和修饰胡子。当理发师开始为他理发时，他们攀谈起来，谈及许多话题。谈到有关神明的课题时，理发师说：“我不相信有神的存在。”

“你为什么会那么说呢？” 顾客问道。

“好，你只须走到街道上，就可以了解神是不存在的。告诉我，如果有神的存在，怎会有那么多病人呢？还会有被遗弃的小孩吗？如果有神，就不应该有灾难和痛苦。我想像不出慈爱的神会让这些事情发生。”

顾客沉思片刻，决定不要和理发师展开一番争辩。理发完毕，顾客付钱离开理发室。

一走出理发室，他见到街道上有一个蓬头散发的男人，头发像绳索般又长又垢，胡子看来散乱不整。顾客忙走回头，再次进入理发室，对理发师说：“你知道吗？理发师并不存在。”

“你怎可以那么说呢？” 理发师很惊奇地问。“我在这儿，我就是理发师，我才刚刚替你理发。”

“不！” 顾客理直气壮地回话，“ 理发师并不存在！如果理发师存在的话，那就不会有人长着又脏又长的头发, 凌乱的胡子，好像外面那个人一样！”

理发师辩称，“啊，理发师是的确存在的！只是他们没有来找我，才会有这种情形。”

“的确是这样！” 顾客以肯定的语气表示同意，“这就是重点，神也是如此，祂是存在的！只是人们不去寻找神的援助，世界上才会有那么多的灾难和痛苦。”

世尊BABA解释：所有这类问题，纯粹是因为我们不明了自己真正的本性。BABA说：“当有人问你：‘你可以告诉我神在那儿吗？’你应该回答：‘你就是神，所以你能说话、会行动。’要体验神，你先要认识自己内在的至善。你把盐含在口里，就尝不到甜味。只有漱口把盐清除后，方能尝到甜味。世俗的欲望就像盐一样，放弃它们，你才能体验到神性。”

2009-05-25T17:38:00.002+08:00

我常持着这一条原则 : “志不同,不与之同谋” ,所以一旦我发觉某一个人 (姑且称之为”A”) 的志向与我不同时,为了尊重他, 也为了尊重我自己,我就会选择不与他同谋或共事.但当我作这样的选择时,偶而我也会感到困惑不安.

我会作如是想 : BABA不是教导我们”异中求同”/”unity in diversity”吗?

但随便轻易苟同一个完全不可理喻的人或是去和一个拒绝与你合作的人如 A共事,肯定会令我或A 都很不开心,也会令我感到对不起我自己,那么这又何苦呢?

我会再作如是想: BABA 不也说过 “万众皆一体”/”All is one”吗?

我就为什么不能与A合作呢?

但事实分明是A 不要与我共谋,不是我不与A合作呀！而A选择不与我共事,又何尝不是A也发觉了他的志向与我不一致? 亲密的夫妻,不也是两个不同的个体吗?

“万众皆一体”诚然是实,但万众仍然不同呀!

我又再作如是想: BABA不是要我们关爱他人/”loving another”吗? 我是否就不关爱A ?

关爱他人或A并不代表停止关爱自己呀!

关爱A不意谓可以容许A随意贱踏我,欺凌我,不把我当一回事呀!

当我向A表明我不愿与他同谋,不尽然是我限制了他,而是我限制了我自个儿只可妥协到那个地步而巳;即意谓着我向A也同时向自己作个宣布与阐明 "我就是这么样的一个人”!我又再再作如是想:BABA不正也鼓厉我们每天要重新创造自己,蜕变自己/”transformation”吗?

那么更有智慧的去关爱他人(包括A)和关爱自己,不是正是由虫儿至蛹至蝴蝶的过程吗?不正是对自己有个交代?对自己负个全责吗?

啊! BABA真是一个道地也落地的至圣导师,亲自为我们解惑,我们就诚惶诚恐地奉行并落实他的教导吧!

愿与各位同修共勉之---------------

BABA 有赏

2009-05-24T21:17:00.013+08:00

一当得悉BABA恩准我们的合唱团到印度去呈献合唱与他共欢庆卫塞节时,东甲的Bro. Albert刻不容缓的带来他的一班人马驱车直赶思菩提巴赞小组练习唱歌,强调必以最虔诚的心奉上最沁人的乐章,让BABA开心.

Bro Albert 的不辞劳苦,携妻带女又牵着姐姐香兰,赶上赶下的奔波于东甲及吉隆坡路上,他的能耐实在令我深感佩服;我心想若不是他对BABA的爱如许真如许实,肯定他一–定不会作如是的选择 !

双溪大年的Sister Lan Eing与夫婿也带来Bro Goh 和 Sister Chong南下,与我们一齐练习合唱.

Sister Chong 在我家投宿,有一个深夜在我的房间躺在我的床上,向我细说她如何结识BABA,接着说这次到印度去唱歌给BABA听,她只有三个心愿:一是能摸到BABA的莲花足,二是能与BABA拍张合照,三是BABA可以送给她一个礼物.

当时我只觉得她太异想天开了,BABA 有这么多的千万信众,我们应只求与BABA有近矩离的达善 Darshan 就知足了,其它的要求可皆是奢想 ……

但是8.5.2009的下午,当我们合唱完毕,BABA果真开心的赠送我们每人一份礼物,接着又下台来,让我们一一触摸莲花足,最后与大家来个大合照.

BABA 不单成全实现了Sister Chong 的三个心愿,还巧妙安排Sister Chong 就正坐在BABA的膝下,印证了BABA的无所不知,无所不在,无所不能;就连Sister Chong 在夜深人静与我的倾谈BABA都听得一清二楚 !

BABA也大大奖赏Bro Albert 与香兰赛姐( 是他们把东甲的人引向亲神之道), BABA 与他俩的合照,人人看了都觉得开心, 真珍贵 !

除合唱团老师张炫铭之外,妹妹金莲与妹夫金文也能上台与BABA作最亲近恳切的交谈,这份喜悦与荣誉及福报,使我们的合唱团团员个个满心头尽是欢喜,从印度回来后,仍然久久不散………

2009年赛小学义卖会

2009-05-22T17:10:00.004+08:00

一眨眼一年一度为赛小学筹款的义卖会又再次举行! 此次的义卖会是订在17.05.2009在赛小学举行。

我们思菩提赛中文巴赞小组也不落人后，积级参与。

从筹备到当天的义卖，思菩提的信徒与知己朋友们，大家都非常落力的参与，有钱出钱，有力出力，务使这次的义卖会能成功的筹到更多的义款。

这次义卖，思菩提巴赞小组的摊位所展列的义卖物品，非常多样化、玲珑满目，目不暇给；从食物饮料到日常用品及玩具，几乎应有尽有。

义卖的食物就有好几种，保证能适合各人不同的口味，如；爪哇面、暹米粉、炒面、各类糕点等。饮品方面有矿泉水、豆桨水、海底椰、利宾那、遮哩、小麦草等。

这些食物皆由我们的赛姐和朋友们用真材实料加上爱心的配制烹调，不单美味可口，而且既卫生又健康，难怪全部都在义卖当天3，4个小时内售完。

我们还开了一个迷你杂货店，有卖米、油、糖、饼干、经济面、奶粉等等，生意非常兴隆。有个顾客一口气买了几包米，几瓶油，和几箱经济面。

我们也从印度买了一些直升机玩具来售卖，很受小孩子们的青睬。

Vivan 赛姐也开了一个小小的精品摊，出售那些她周游列国时所买的纪念品，非常的精致可爱，所以也卖得满堂红。

Terrence赛兄与Zoe赛姐也捐出他们店里的塑料水壶，反应非常不错。

陈光兴赛兄则从厂家办来各种品味的果汁，很受欢迎。

义卖会从早上九时开始致中午一时结束。过后计算所收到的固本，一共获得 RM10,794.00，多出去年所得的RM7,000.00。大家都兴奋万分。

这次义卖会的成功多得各位赛兄弟姐妹及好友们的落力支持及付出。最难能可贵的是你们的爱心；平时那些老板级的赛兄们都养尊处优的，可是这一天，他们都能抛下他们的地位和面子，与大家一同扮演小贩的角色向顾客们招 “生意”，也当苦力汗流夹背帮顾客搬物品。为什么他们能义无反顾的服务呢？因为至尊 BABA的慈爱感染了他们！

思菩提赛中文巴赞小组在此诚挚的感谢你们！

与神为友

2009-05-19T18:44:00.006+08:00

这一次获得BABA的恩准,前去印度百善地与他共同欢庆卫塞节,合唱团员们皆能在大殿前,在老师的指挥下大展歌喉.在BABA慈爱的眼光注视下,我们以最美妙的歌声唱出最动听的乐章,赞颂佛陀与走在人间的BABA.

2009年5月8号午间,正是团员们毕生难忘的午间,因为献唱十首曲子后, BABA当场随手一晃间,变出了一枚镶有九粒宝石的金戒指并亲自把它戴在跪着BABA跟前的老师的无名指上,顿时全场哄动欢呼鼓掌.把当时的欢庆气氛推至最高潮.

此际坐在台下的我,不禁又羡又妒.

我注意到,老师在指挥每一首曲子完毕之后的停歇间中,都会转头望着BABA请求示意是否继续唱下一首歌, 老师与BABA都会彼此发出会心的微笑, 犹如老友般; 此刻我思索着老师与BABA的关系,是否密切到挚友的程度方能一而再,再而三的获得BABA的恩赐物品?是否人与神之间的关系不可停留在神是高高在上,人是低低在下?

接着,BABA终于坐着轮椅下台来让我们都有机会触摸他的莲花足并与我们合照,个个兴奋欢欣,不在话下.

BABA也不忘赏赐我们每个女团员一件sari,每个男团员一匹可缝制套装的布，赏赐的丰厚，让我们深深感受BABA给我们的爱，是一千个母亲的爱。。。。。。。

我们所能做的, 就是用我们的心灵去体会、体验他。。。。。。。其实每个人的心灵都最能贴近神.

兰英赛姐对我说六十二岁的双溪大年蔡赛姐已两年多须靠服用安眠药及空调23度摄氏的温度下方能入眠, 但在百善地的一个星期间内, 在酷热的天气 (约40度摄氏)反而能一躺下床即入睡到天亮, 皆因她感受 BABA 如此的关爱、如此的靠近.

东甲的香兰赛姐说余赛姐在百善地宿舍内凌晨4时多起身来, 坐在床边流泪, 同房的香兰问她为什么哭, 她说她感觉到 BABA 实在太爱护她了, 感动到鼻涕泪水都流了出来.

诸如此类的经验和例子比比皆是, 说明当心与灵与 BABA 拉近, 就能如是密切.

BABA 在 “赛如是激励” (Sai Inspires) – 15.05.2009 内所述的 (making God your best friend) “把神成为你的挚友” 再次印证了:-

只有将我们的心灵与 BABA 的心灵像好朋友般的紧紧相靠, 才能创造更多奇迹的发生与体会。。。。。。。

福乐的化身

2009-04-29T13:31:00.002+08:00

作者伦达伯温(Rhonda Bryne)在 [Creator of the Secret] “奥密的创造者”书中如是强调：

“先置身于福乐之中，每一件事将由此而改变”。

作者觉察到他的大半生都是在开倒车，因为顺境时，他是开心的；一旦遭逢困境时，他是那么的沮喪，几乎每件事都出了差错。原來他在自己的生命中把 “吸引论” [Law of Attraction]错用了，当他懂得了这奥密后，全部都改观了。

遵循这宇宙中最强而有力的奥密的 “吸引论”，首先就是要把自己置身于福乐之中。如果我们在日常生活中常受情绪的支配，在遇见难题时，以负面情绪 (如生气、泄气、怨天尤人等等)作出反应，我们招惹吸引而来的是负面的人生。我们无从抗拒 “吸引论”，它是以最微细的震波运作着的，而且是那么的全然准切无误。所以当你面临逆境时，其实正是一个被粉墨化妝了的良机，让你非下定决心不可，必要把自己浸浴在福乐之中。一旦你如是作，吸引论马上操作，更多的 “好事”肯定会被吸引并发生在你周遭，你的生活就会扭转、改变了。

作者这套 “吸引论”与我们至尊 Sai BaBa时时提醒我们皆是 “福乐的化身” [Embodiment of Love]是不谋而合。

在快乐时刻能开心是必然的，无可厚非。

在失意时刻是否也能开心？或者能保有福乐的心境？十之八九的人料必不能.......依据奥秘的吸引力，当你越是失意，你应该不受负面情绪所控制，以免深深堕进忧焚深渊........

我们如果相信至尊BaBa所说的我们都是 “福乐的化身"是真理的话，那么不管顺境或逆境，时时刻刻让自己浸浴在福乐之中，依据 “吸引论”，面临苦难时想要扭转乾坤，想要吸引好人好事的到来，必定先要投身于福乐之中，这方是首要的先决条件！

科技关怀

我的父母生了11个孩子，我排行第10。

13年前我筹划着要开律师楼，当时母亲兴奋的赞好，她老人家说：“你有一大群的姪甥儿女，改日律师楼将能提供他们就业的機会”。

6兄大我5岁，他自1967年高三毕业后，30多年來就做着生果生意，养大培育了3个工程师的儿子。

2007年间结束生意，随着儿子们从吉打搬到吉隆坡來定居。原本打算就此退休安享晚年，但是在吉隆坡住了不久，便觉得坐也不是，站也不是，渡日如年，苦不堪言。

我见他如是模样，便叫他來我的律师楼帮我。原本只要他做点杂差及接送我去法庭，那知6兄好学不倦，虚心向律师楼其他职员学习。刚开始连“Please”,“confirm”都不会 spelling，却在几个月的时间，英文、国语、电脑打字都学得铿锵有声----。

6兄向来认为佛教才是极终无上的宗教，BABA呢？只是停留在 “神迹”-----。

但这两年在律师楼工作，看着拜BABA的我对人、对事、对客户的态度，诚惶诚恐，克勤刻苦的事人如事神般的操作着，方才看出BABA的信徒也着重日间修行，传播着BABA的大爱-----。

有一天6兄竟然向我提议，他初到我的律师楼时，对电脑的恐懼，他如何克服这份害怕，如何慢慢的掌握电脑，并从电脑中得到浩翰的资讯、知识，令他的生活起了180度的转变，他的视野也就迅速的迈开及拓寬了！他所获得的喜悦让他觉得他有这个义务去与他人分享，去回馈！

由于6兄是 “过来人”深深懂得对学习电脑有诸多心理障碍的人的恐懼、害怕、担忧、却步不前，他就是一个电脑老师的最好材料。

在柯丽月赛姐的支助及堆动下，我们思菩提赛巴巴颂赞小组终于在2009年3月成立了我们的 “科技关怀”班 (每星期六9.00am – 11.00am上课)。学员们是一群50多岁以上的家庭主妇，她们的学习精神让人肃然起敬。

6兄很有耐心的教她们如何运行 “滑鼠”、如何开关电脑、怎样上网、怎样进入网站搜尋资料 -----。嘉瑞赛兄和Stanley赛兄也在旁当起 “助教”来！

看着6兄与学员们一齐学习，一齐兴高采烈的分享科技关怀，妈吗在极乐世界当更极乐！

BABA的大爱充份体现 ------ 这个科技关怀，何止是科技关怀？那是温暖人心的热腾腾，闹哄哄的关怀！

The Ant's Philosophy

2009-03-23T14:11:00.003+08:00

1st PART

ANTS NEVER QUIT

If they are headed somewhere and you try to stop them, they will look for another way.
They will climb over, they will climb under, they will climb around.
They keep looking for another way.

LESSON:
To never quit looking for a way to get where you are supposed to go.

2nd PART

ANTS THINK WINTER ALL SUMMER

You can't be so native as to think summer will last forever.
So ants are gathering their winter food in the middle of summer.
You have got to think rocks as you enjoy the sand and sun.

LESSON: It is important to be realistic. Think ahead

3rd PART

ANTS THINK SUMMER ALL WINTER

During the winter, ants remind themselves, This won't last long; we will soon be out of here.
At the first warm day, the ants are out.
If it turns cold again, they will dive back down, but then they come out the first warm day.

LESSON: Stay proactive at all times.

4th PART

ALL-THAT-YOU- POSSIBLY- CAN

How much will an ant gather during the summer to prepare for the winter?
All that it possibly can.

LESSON: Do all you can!.and more!

IN A NUT SHELL...

FOUR-PART PHILOSOPHY

1) Never Give Up

2) Look Ahead

3) Stay Positive

4) Do All You Can

Don't be encumbered by history, just go out do something wonderful...

Received the email from some sender and I know he wants to share with as many people as possible things we learn from Nature.

人生是欢畅，享受它！

2009-02-03T23:09:00.006+08:00

人生是欢畅，享受它！

“Life is Joy, Enjoy it!”

向来以为“黑暗”与“光明”是两门事，现在悟出原来这是一门事，“黑暗”是光线弱了，“光明”是光线强了。光线程度的不同致使 “黑暗”与 “光线”有所分别。

“开心”与“伤心”也不是两门事，而是一门事，那是情绪、感情能量拥有不同程度的波动而已，所以一个人可以同时感到“开心”与“伤心”；这一次我远赴美国看着蹦蹦跳跳向我挤媚眼的一岁小孙女时，我的心里一面感到开心(呵！我有了个可爱的孙女了！)，一面却也感到伤心(呵！我怎能不老呢？)。

想起至尊赛巴巴不时对我们说：“人生是欢畅，享受它！”(Life is Joy, Enjoy it!)。

有很多人都不以为是(包括我)，因为我们皆认为人生是”苦”，有各种各样的烦恼，最近又有全球金融风暴，BaBa又如何自圆其说呢？又如何让我们去感受、感觉享受这”欢畅”的人生？

但是如果我们再深层的体会和去印证，“伤心”与”开心”只是不同程度的感情能量的波动而已，的确是一门事，我想我们应该警觉性的向自己宣称：“与其选择“伤心”过日子，我宁可选择“开心”过日子！”。

赛BaBa要我们在过日子时，懂得用微笑去感染另一个伤心的人，使他也绽开笑容；用关爱的眼神鼓励另一个失落的人，使其感受温情；用关怀的话语安抚另一个受伤的心灵，使其重燃希望；用宽容的情怀原谅另一个曾经伤害出卖我门的人，以使自己不再懊恼。当你都能做到这一些，你的感情能量会激起更正面更高昂的震波(Vibrations)，致使你的日子会由“伤心”转变为“开心”，你内心的担子放下、心结解开了必会释然开怀，你的生活肯定自在、舒畅、生活将全面改观。。。

金融风暴即使有再大的冲击，只要遵随BaBa的教诲去开航，由BaBa来掌舵，必能乘风破浪，透视了解“黑暗”与“光明”是一门事，“伤心”与“开心”亦是一门事，绝对不是两门事，然后作个选择，享受这光明、开心、欢畅的人生！

--- Goodbye 2008 , Welcome 2009 ---

2008-12-16T16:57:00.002+08:00

Dear Swami,

2008 is coming to an end. We would like to inform Swami that there is not much changes or improvement in our Bhajan Unit activities. The number of activities is lesser but our choir have seen addition of new members and more importantly, besides singing praises to Swami, many have participated in the seva activities. We continue to pray to Swami for your blessings and graces to be bestowed onto our members and everyone. And we hope to continue to improve not only in activities but in spiritual advancement.

The major individual events have been reported in our blog.

Swami, we have decided not to participate in this coming 2009 Chinese New Year celebration in Prashanti, however, we wish to visit and sing to Swami at Koddaikanal around April in 2009. We do hope that Swami will confer on our wish and offering.

We are also setting up a Musical on Swami’s Life and Message and it is scheduled to be performed around September 2009 at KLPac. The youths are taking charge of this programme and we pray for Swami’s guidance and blessing on this offering, too. Swami, please make this event a success.

We also hope to have more male members in our choir and everyone can strive to sing better so that we will be able to participate in the 2010 Music Choir Olympics in Shaoying, China.

As for the Bhajan Unit, we hope to have better and more active participations from the members, set up EHV classes and do as much as we can for Swami. We also hope to take up more seva activities and we pray for Swami’s grace and guidance so that we can continue to serve you better.

**** Merry Chistmas and Happy New Year****

At your Lotus Feet,

Kim Lian

吧吧八十三岁诞辰庆典

2008-12-04T17:13:00.001+08:00

今年, 思菩提选择了11 月21日在中心，由大家一起共计共尽力欢庆吧吧八十三岁诞辰庆典。

几个星期前，大家都把自己拿手好菜写在白板上，准备贡献吧吧诞辰庆典的素宴。菜肴，糕点，饮料，琳琅满目，真没想到各姐妹的橱艺也如此了得。

张老师全权负责文娱项目，IRENE 负责巴赞，麦赛兄和JOHN安排把40名Ti Ratana Homes　的孤儿带来一起欢度世尊的诞辰，金文准备礼物给小朋友; 工作如火如荼。　

当天，好多兄弟姐妹一早到来准备服务工作，但原定6.30分抵达的 Ti RaTana 宾客迟到了。大家手忙脚乱的让到来的小朋友们先喝点糖水裹腹（因策定9.00PM 晚宴）。

7.30分开始巴赞。巴赞后，由凯杰，凯善讲一个寓言故事为今日吧吧的讯息。他俩讲的青蛙的实验，启示大家“太舒适的生活，是最危险的时刻。” “我们必须时时注意，多警醒，并迎接考验，接受改变，才不至于面对现实的时刻，失去应变的能力。”和世尊的谆谆教教诲相符。

接下来，一连串的节目，有小朋友独唱，钢琴独奏，小组合唱，整个礼堂挤满了信徒和来宾；满足了我们庆典的宗旨：让大家不分男女老少，是否信徒，欢聚一堂分享赛的喜悦和恩泽。

悦之女声小组唱出了“生活的美好”，年青活力的组合-伊甸园的歌声，唱起了“夜来香” 和巴赞改编的“ 为什么怕，有我在此？”获得了赞赏。

佛学会BUDDHIST VIHARA 合唱团为我们唱两首佛曲助兴。我合唱团也唱了好多首曲子欢颂世尊的圣号。满堂欢唱庆祝“赛，生日快乐。” 我们邀请了主席BRO BILLY夫妇和 AUNTY LAU 代表世尊切蛋糕。AUNTY LAU 是赛组织众所周知的信徒，她老人家今年和世尊同龄-83岁涉足服务多年；是赛服务的楷模。

节目，晚宴完毕。洗涤橱具盘碗，搬移桌椅板凳，抹擦地板；个个乐此不疲，已没有宾主之分。徐赛兄问我：那洗碗的妇女是谁？我说: 我不认识; 还有拿"坡饼"来的那个妇女我也不认识; 这么多的食物, 我也不知是谁报效的?。

心灵深处直呼：“吧吧，这是你所安排，你所要的吧！”

大家的齐心协力合作下，思菩提举行了这简单，欢欣的庆典；套句 JOHN 的话：“大家快乐，SWAMI 也快乐。” 这不就是大家所期望的吗？

吧吧，生日快乐！

蔡金莲

时时快乐,你能吗？

2008-11-30T06:13:00.004+08:00

2000年间李顺德赛兄夫妇坚持要我上孟老师的课程，原本我是敷衍他们而去的，却居然因为得到老师的开导，使得我在人生的大路上走得更舒畅。

妹妹常说BABA是个大林，孟老师是棵树，这个比喻是再好不过了。打个比方：在分享BABA“散播关爱”的课题之后，一位赛姐万分苦恼的对我投诉，她说她有个很难相处的家婆，对她来说她只求与家婆互不相犯，不敢奢望“散播关爱”，尽管两人都住在同一屋檐下，5年多以来彼此不与对方谈话。。。。我发觉这种状况孟老师往往会教导如何让自己及对方感受关爱，散布与接受关爱的心理过程因由与如何产生互动作用加速亲密关系效果，孟老师无疑的就是林子里的一棵树！

几年前妹妹曾问过我一个问题：“你先有钱才感到快乐，还是先感到快乐才有钱？”

当时我的答案与大多数人的答案是一样的，那就是：“先有钱，方才感到快乐!"

但孟老师却说：”这个次序的先后排错了！一个人首先要感到快乐，兹后才吸引金钱。“

原来我们许多人都常搞错了次序先后，误以为先要有些先决条件，比如金钱或健康方可得享快乐,殊不知我们的顽固错误让我们活得很不开心自在，更沾不上快乐的边......

这不正也是BABA时刻向我们所作的如是强调吗？BABA 宣称我们皆是快乐的化身，首先务必内心油然感到快乐，则快乐的思绪鼓动我们发出快乐的话语再加快乐的举止行动，形成快乐的习行与品格方能作快乐的选择，然后方有快乐的前路并时时浸浴于快乐至福中。。。

记得兰英赛姐月前对我说；”为甚么要保持快乐的心情是那么的艰难呢？BABA曾问一个信徒是否能为BABA就只作一件事？那个信徒答‘能！’ BABA 说‘好！你就只要答应我时时快乐就是！’那个信徒随即万分为难得低下头来！“情绪激动的兰英语毕时眼眶滚动著泪，想必那时她不禁深深思念起热爱我们的BABA，弄得我也审问起自己来，倘若BABA也问我同个问题，我是否也能为BABA就只作这件事？。。。。。

你是否也能？。。。。。。

Thought For The Day As Written in Prashanti Nilayam

2008-11-26T18:41:00.001+08:00

God is the embodiment of Dharma (righteousness). His grace is won by Dharma. He is ever fostering Dharma. He is Dharma Itself. The Vedas, Shastras (scriptures) and Puranas (mythology) all proclaim aloud the glory of Dharma. The stream of Dharmic activity should never run dry. When its cool waters cease to flow, disaster is certain. -SAI BABA

死亡步向永生

2008-11-21T01:08:00.001+08:00

抵美虽已三日，但体内的“生物钟”走的仍然是大马时间。。。深夜醒来，脑子特灵，噢，原来这时乃是大马的大白天。。。

挂怀着思菩提赛中心每周五的唱赞日。

每唱赞完毕，每位赛兄弟姐妹都合掌向BABA作如是祈愿：“引领我---从黑暗步向光明，虚幻步向真实，死亡步向永生。。。。。。。。。”

我常常不愿此祈愿草草沦为机械喃喃。。。。。。。

今夜读了这书 “与神互融” (Communion with God- by Neale Donald Walsch)的第七段章 (chapter 7)，深深被之震颤。

此段章大致如是解道：-

“死亡是不存在的----------

如果你相信神是万物，万物是神，那么万物的死亡，不就等于神的死亡？

生命是神，神是生命，皆是永生。

形体的死亡实乃能量的再蜕变”。

( "God is the Energy of Life itself, and that this Energy never dies, but merely changes form" -- Chapter 7, pages 71 to 72).

佛谓“死亡”是”此岸至彼岸“；圣经云“死亡”乃灵魂脱离形体而灵魂不死；兴都教称“灵” 为累世所积的不生不灭的神识；概括来说”死亡“绝对不是一个句号.

记得中学时我们读过 “水的循环”，水可以是“液体”的水，水也可以蒸发蜕变形成 “气体”，也可以凝结为“固体”蜕变为冰块，但其实体仍然是“水”，是“能量”。
我思念着思菩提中心的同修与共修，我思考着这一段章，联系到向 BaBa祈愿的 “从死亡步向永生”的虔诚。

BaBa曾两次把濒临死亡边缘的我拉了回来，让我在今夜得以深深感悟“从死亡步向永生”的真理，触动我心的是BaBa温暖的关爱与爱语。

能在此生认识慈悲大爱的BaBa是我的大福。

能在此生与充满大爱能量的BaBa互融，是我的至福。

-------- 愿与大家共享------------------

"痛苦" 与 "受苦"

2008-10-23T13:58:00.000+08:00

"痛苦" 与 "受苦"
"Pain" & "Suffering"

或许我很能让人觉得容易亲近及信赖，又或许我是个专门处理民事纠纷诉讼(包括家庭法律) 的律师，所以只有天知道我保管着许多人的许多秘密--------这是一个多沉重的包袱？又或者是一份至高无上的荣誉？这是神的旨意赐予我的恩典？又或者是我自己的意愿？我个人的选择？

2008 年 10 月 20 日南洋商报 "南洋教育" 版内一则故事如是叙述：

"当老鹰活到 40 岁的时候，它锐利的爪子开始老化了。它没有办法迅速有效地捕猎食物了。老鹰的喙也因为没有修剪变得又长又弯，连啄食食物也有困难。它身上的羽毛变得又浓又厚，十分沉重，使到飞行变得非常缓慢。它失去了捕猎的武器，没有了灵敏的动作，这只老鹰就好像一只在天空爬行的笨鸟，饱受其他鸟类的嘲笑。

这时这只 40 岁的老鹰就必须面对两个选择；其一就是接受命运的安排，默默地等待死亡，其二就是彻底地改变自己，突破自己。然后想要接受改变，就要面对真正的痛苦。

首先它必须用它的喙用力敲打岩壁，直到那已经无法再使用的喙脱落，然后慢慢地长出坚硬无比的新喙。它将会利用新喙把已经老化的爪子一根一根地拔出来。这种痛苦绝对可以列为满清十大酷刑。为了自己的重生，坚强的老鹰会用沉稳而坚毅地低鸣来面对它。

痛苦还没有结束，当老鹰的爪子长出来了以后，它就会无情地把身上又浓又厚的羽毛一根一根地拔掉，直到全身光秃秃。一直到 5 个月之后，它身上长满了又柔又新的羽毛，它才能再次展翅翱翔在蔚蓝的天空，开始一个属于自己的全新生命。"

我一面渎这则故事，一面流着泪........ 我与老鹰没有两样， 42 岁时选择弃下教鞭成为执业律师，在法庭长廊走着时，满脑会想着例案、法律章节，心里会盘算着如何以最快方式把一场官司乾净利落的打胜，真想把自己的咀 (如鹰用它老化的喙用力敲打岩壁以换锐利新喙) 磨 "利" 了，也想让自己脱胎换骨 (如鹰把老化的爪拔出以长新爪；再用新爪拔掉老毛以换柔软新毛般) 能傲然高瞰法律的美丽与无情..........。

母亲当时还在人世，她尊重我的选择，但又疼惜的说： " 当教师比较轻松，为何去选择当律师这一个重任？会不会很辛苦？"

很多时候我对自己探问： "我是何苦来哉？"

这个时候读了这则故事，我才惊然发觉、发掘，我拥有如老鹰般热腾的血；我不想原地踏步，我要去做我心想做的许多事 (继续成长)，要去做一些自己不敢做的事 (寻求突破)，也要做一些不会做的许多事 (面对挑战)。

虽然这个过程间中也有让我尝到失败、受挫的痛苦，但历经过程后却觉得不是受苦，反而为自己的成长突破窃喜！

这正如 BaBa 的教诲一样，一个女人在生产孩子所尝到的痛苦，一旦看到自己的孩子生出来时的欢欣，反而觉得这个过程倒也不是受苦，所以 "痛苦" 与 "受苦" 虽有密切联系，但还是有所分别的！

--------------- 愿与各位同修共勉 --------------------------

( 蔡圆美完稿于 2008 年 10 月 21 日读完 "老鹰的故事" 接着又收到好友胡顺民电邮来的 "女人分娩" 图片有感而作)

嘉言---佳言

2008-10-23T12:57:00.000+08:00

嘉言---佳言

BaBa 嘉言：

"在任何时间都散播欣喜。不要将自己烦恼及忧虑琐事一股劲儿倾倒入别人的耳朵里去。

把一朵笑容挂在面庞上，让每个见着你的人都能扑捉到那份喜跃。

当你将自己的成功事绩宣告他人，你的用意仅只想在他人的心中激荡起妒忌与羡慕。

你不单要关爱他人，你也要日益变好以致使他人也能关爱你。

尝试去安慰、鼓励、激发和开导那些感觉糟透、提不起劲、孱弱或被受到误导的人。

时刻将自己装备整顿好，让自己能扮演这个角色。"

我常常庆幸自己有生之年得以认识这么一位慈航倒驾、慈爱睿智的 BaBa。

BaBa 的嘉言时刻指引鞭策我追寻真善美，我不感到疼，却深深感到他的疼爱。。。

Quotable Quotes ----Wise Quotes

BaBa says :

"Spread jot at all times. Do not pour into others' ears your tales of woe & worry. Carry a smile on your face so that every one who sees you can catch that exhilaration. When you tell others of your success, your purpose is to create envy in them. You must not only love others, but you must also be so good that others may love you. Try to console, encourage, strengthen and enlighten those who are miserable, downhearted, weal or ill-informed. Get yourselves equipped for this role."

I always feel fortunate that in my life span here on earth, I have come to know this Avatar BaBa who is full of Love & Wisdom.

BaBa's quotes in every moment guides and whips me to forge forward seeking Truth, Goodness, Beauty ("Sathyam, Shivam, Sundaram"), I don't feel the pain, but I feel deeply his care and love for me............

欢欣、一统、爱----生命充份表达

2008-10-23T12:41:00.002+08:00

欢欣、一统、爱----生命充份表达
Joy, Unity, Love ------ Life fully Expressed

"欢欣" 意即生命得以充份表达。生命的能量能通畅无阻的流动就是所谓的 "欢欣"。

生命的精粹是 "一统"，就是 "万般一统"。这就是生命： "一统" 得以充份表达。

当你感觉到 "一统" ，这种感觉就是所谓 "爱"。"欢欣" 就是 "爱" 在通畅无阻的流动。

每个人的灵的本质是 "欢欣"，当这 "欢欣" 不能充份表达出来，就会呈现所谓的 "悲伤" (Sadness)。

把赛的乐章传给予大家 - 欢乐之声 24-8-2008

2008-08-26T10:31:00.002+08:00

欢乐之声为雪隆一带合唱团联合主办的一年一度合唱交流会。今年，一共有二十五个合唱团参加此活动；人数有八百之多。今年，也是思菩提首次参加此交流会演出，除了给团员有个演绎的机会；也希望能把赛的福音，乐章和慈爱传递给大家。

24-8-2008 從十一点开始演唱；我团为第二十四个出场的团体；演唱时刻大概是下午四点。虽然观众已听了整整五个小时的歌曲；但是当我团首先由四部声位先续发出 OM。。。的和音后；已夺取礼堂内大家的注意力。 '赛神圣的名号' 带来安甯和欢欣。。。团员唱出了对赛的虔诚；堂内鸦雀无声，大家屛息倾听清脆潦亮的歌颂声；令人信服于赛的仁慈，犹如春风化雨的恩泽；赛的名号也震撼了人心。第二首， I WILL LOVE YOU, 唱出了我们对赛真挚的爱；流露出对神，对爱的响往。最后，我们唱出了赛带给我们的喜悦。。。又再次重申我们对赛的爱。

首首曲子都紧扣着大家的心弦；时而心悦诚服，时而惊叹于赛的震慑。赛的名号，恩泽与歌声荡漾人们心中，脑海。

哈哈哈

Trip to India 16 May to 22 May 2008

2008-05-26T16:05:00.001+08:00

16-5-2008 We, a total of 20 (Minus See Kim Boon who opted out at 3.00am) flew Jet Airways from Kuala Lumpur to Chennai.
Arrived at Chennai local time 9.30am. Greeted by Kishore at Chennai Airport and started our 10 hours Van journey to Puttaparthi
Stopped at Hotel Narayana at Chittor for Lunch. Good and cheap Tali Lunch.
The 38 km stretch of ‘road’ before reaching Puttaparthi is a rocky, winding path tre-passing tiny little kampungs but we sang songs all the way.
Reached Prahsanti Nilayam at 8.05pm just in time for us to get keys to rooms, all together 10 rooms.

17-5-2008 First Morning Darshan. Managed to get quire front rows. Sitting quietly and in
meditative mood and Swami came out around 9.00am. The minute He came in, everyone experienced joy and bliss. His face was perfection and some how you know he has answered all our prayers and wishes.
Bro Lee from Alor Setar stood forward to deliver our “Kuala Lumpur Sai Baba Chinese Choir’ membership card from Interkultur Foundation to Swami.. Swami looked through the card and was puzzled as no explanation or clarification was offered to Him.

Nearly 8.00pm, I walked to N7 trying to collect keys for Tangkak Group but to no avail. Albert’s group arrived at 8.30pm and the officers have left, no keys and no rooms. Seva Dal insisted that they left our hostels. We lied saying that after the group had eaten and settled their belongings with us, they will leave. I was feeling very uncomfortable as I lied in the vicinity of Swami. I prayed to Swami, if what I have acted is right please let me have the front few roles in tomorrow’s Drashan lines.

18-5-2008 Know what? My line got the No.1 in drawing of token. Swami’s great. I am right in ‘harbouring’ our Tangkak’s brothers and sisters. We had very good darshan.

Later on, we learned from Bro Cheah T.B. that Swami has taken our letter of requesting for Swami’s permission to sing.
Cheah holds a whole stakes of letters on his left hand and a single letter on his right. Swami went past him and later Swami’s student walked back to collect the letter, only the single letter and not the stakes on his left hand.

The men were approached by Bro Amar Kharki our Regional Coordinator to ask us to see him for the Wesak Day Celebration

Bro Amar was very good, helpful, friendly and he arranged for the presentation seeking permission from Cakrawati.. At first, he said only 15 minutes is given to us. After listening to us he said sang all the songs you could.

19-5-2008 We had special seating but Swami did not come back for morning Darshan.
In the evening , we were all seated in the Mandir and Swami came out at 5.00pm. Wow, Swami went past so near us and then we started to sing. (A group of 19) We sang all 7 songs. Swami enjoyed so much, he was smiling, staring at us (scanning, some said), taping to the rythmn and after all 7 songs, he signalled asking for more, unfortunately, we have none to offer. Lao shi, went to sit down.

Bhajan commenced. After a few songs, he asked his students to go and get 3 big containers of mango, he blessed and the students placed the containers in front of us. The bhajan was still on. Then he signalled to us, asking us to take the mango and also to pass to the bhajan singers at our back. He really treated us like his little children.

Swami signalled the bhajan to stop, he started to ‘scan each one of us and he signalled Lao shi and I to go up the stage.

He asked Lao Shi “ What is your name?”
Lao Shi said “Stanley Cheong”
Swami asked “What do you want?”
Lao shi said :I donot know.”
Swami laughed and said “ Do you want Baba?”
Lao Shi said ‘yes” and he materialized a gold chain for him.
He signaled Lao Shi to do Padamaskar

Lao Shi came down, I walked up and he signalled me to do padamaskar
I kissed his Lotus feet and asked “Can my sister come along?”
Swami said ‘which one?”
I pointed to Sis Huan Bee and Swami said I will come down.
But later, he went into the room and when he came out, a monk started to light the
arathi and so the session ended.

20-5-2008 Went for morning darshan and there were a lot of Nepalis men and women. Feeling that we should be contended and giving chance to others to get near to Swami. I did not go for the evening bhajan.

21-5-2008 I did not go for Darshan and Swami left for Whitefield at 8.00am. Missed the road darshan. We left for Bangalore at 9.30am.
Visited Shirdi Sai’s temple, Krishna’s and Shiva temple.
Before arriving at Shiva temple (my 3rd visit), I was thinking in my heart, ai ya, I have got
nothing to do with Shiva. However, on reaching the temple and having his darshan,
I felt strong affection and as if he is showering all love and blessing on me. I
immediately identified with him wanting to be his good devotee which I had
never had the last 2 time. Thanks Shiva.

Arrived at the Hotel arranged by Albert, Cheah and Wong KB. Went shopping at MG Road.

22-5-2008 Another long journey to Chennai Airport. The lunch stop at Woody’s restraurant was good. Except the mad chasing of cars etc, the journey was fine (2 puncture experienced by Lee’s car and one by us). Reached airport safely and timely.

Hope to have another pilgrimage with Tangkak Group and I pray to Swami that we can visit Him at Kodaikanal and all my family members can come along too. We have to spell our wish first, isn’t it?

Belated Happy Mothers' Day to Me and All Mothers

Mothers come in diferent forms, shapes and they are all mothers;
Mothers may not be perfect; but they did attempt their best in raising up their childrens;
For good, for bad (unintentionally) mothers have done all they could to us;
We attempt to be good to our mothers and to mothers who have come to our life and ways;
In attempting to be good daughters, we too attempt to be good mothers,
And God knows it is not an easy task - both as a daughter and as a mother.
We do not know our destiny and we would leave it to god.
But more importantly, we are happy to be daughters and we are happy to be mothers.
And may God guide us and bless us in our roles as mothers and daughters.

A Letter To Swami

2008-05-08T16:35:00.000+08:00

Dear Swami,

We, a group of 21 from Kuala Lumpur and Alor Setar and 16 from Tangkak, Johor are going to India to see YOU. We will be travelling on the 16th but our Tangkak Brothers and sisters will join us in India a day later.

We know Swami has said 'celeberate Wesak in your respective country' but as we have already planned, we will continue to proceed to India to see YOU during Wesak times.(16 May 2008 - 22 May 2008).I hope our eagerness to sing for you is not construed as'defiant'. I know you have said there is nothing wrong to 'desire' for god. There is no ceiling on desire for god.

We are flying Jet Air and we are flying to Chennai or Madras as we are not sure where Swami will be. We know YOUR uncertainity but all we ask for is a safe and smooth journey to meet YOU. We will proceed from Chennai to either Puttapathi, Whitefield or Koddaikannal depending on where YOU would be. So, everything is in YOUR hand. We have surrenderred the TRIP to YOU.

We would also request that YOU would allow us to sing for YOU during our stay with YOU. As there are constraints of time, distance and costs, not all (37) have practised but we intend to sit in a group and sing our hearts out to YOU. Please grant our choir the opportunity and honour to sing for you. You have heard some of the songs but not all. I am sure you would like all the songs.

We will carry our digital piano to India with us and I hope you would be touched by our determination to sing to you and henceforth grant us the chance to sing for YOU.

HAPPY WESAK DAY.

探访麻疯病院

2008-02-26T14:45:00.001+08:00

2008年2月17日雪州赛巴巴组织与思菩提赛颂赞(中文)小组探访双溪普儒麻疯病院。现尚有百多名男女病黎住在那儿。

此次探访的目的，除了颁发一些礼物、食品及红包外，最主要的是陪这些病黎欢度农历新年，并尽点绵力，奉献出我们的爱及关怀，希望他/她们能感受到在这世上他/她们还没被遗弃。

团员们欢唱新年歌，并由临时凑合成的小乐队为我们伴奏。John Yong 赛兄拉二胡,金文、高弼赛兄则吹口琴,Bro. Teh Poo Seng 服责扛乐谱架。

虽然团员们并非专业的歌唱家及乐器演奏家 (其中有几位的音质蛮不错的，经已达到半专业水平),但我们是由心唱出，那种温馨的感觉散布整个病院。有好几位病黎随着我们的歌声，载歌载舞、融合一团。

黄永谚赛兄戴着大头笑脸佛向他/她们拜年,赢得他/她们灿烂的笑容。

有好几位病黎经已病入膏肓,不能自己吃东西。我们有几位团员，不怕污垢，无微不致的喂他/她们吃，充份显现出至尊巴巴所教导的博爱。
