以茶會友（十）： 學佛修行不出岔子10th Tea Session With Master Dai Hu: How Not To Go Wrong In Your Spiritual Cultivation
近日，有位同門師姐來找吾。一見面，吾嚇了一跳，因為她身上有一些「陰霾」之氣。吾心想，糟了，怎麼學佛學到這樣？以前跟吾學佛時，都是清清秀秀，亮亮麗麗的，怎麼現在變成這樣？她樣子不但變得枯瘦，臉上又有黑氣，真的不妙，不妙。
從她口中得知她胃口不好，這其實就是一種修行產生了毛病，可見很多人是不懂得學佛修行是什麼。
吾在今年的春節餐會曾說，今年丙申年的太歲星君很喜歡做善事和教育，因此我們也必須得來多做一些這樣有意義的事情，能夠利己利他，冥陽兩利。這是沒有個人利益的，而是完全利益自己的家族，身後的纏身靈、祖先靈、水子靈等的廣大利益。
真實要學佛的讀者粉絲們有福了！佛法浩瀚無垠，眾生常歎難窺堂奧,也絕非一場茶會就能說完，所以接下來，吾將陸續教導學佛修行的次第。
茶會課題：
一、 學佛應該從何起？
二、 怎樣唸佛持咒才有用。
三、 學佛怎麼會變成學魔？
四、 如何看出自己或他人已著魔？
五、 怎麼樣才不會變成魔的點心？
六、 如果已入魔，應該怎麼做？
七、 現代人該當如何修行？
八、 佛法無邊是真實否？
等等及更多的課題，吾將在這星期四的茶會一一為妳你講解。
如果妳你在學佛路上，遇到難題和困惑，歡迎妳你前來請教，讓吾為妳你解開謎團。
又或者，妳你正處在選擇信仰的交叉路口上，不知如何是好，也歡迎妳你出席這星期四的茶會，增進自己對佛教的了解。有知識的人，才能做出更好的人生決定。

Recently, a Dharma sister of the same lineage as I came to look for me. I was shocked when I saw her. There was an aura of negative energy surrounding her. I thought to myself, “This is bad! How did she land herself in such predicament in the path of learning the Dharma?” When she used to learn the Dharma from me in the past, she was always pristine and radiant. What had happened to her? Not only has she became thin and undernourished, her face has an aura of dark energy. This is an ominous sign.
She told me that her appetite has not been well. This is one of the signs that her spiritual cultivation has gone awry, and goes to show that many people out there has insufficient knowledge on spiritual cultivation.
During the Lunar New Year Dinner Session, I spoke about the Grand Duke of Jupiter this year is an avid advocate for performing kind deeds and education. Therefore, all of us should also do more of such meaningful deeds, to benefit ourselves and others as well as sentient beings from other realms. There is no selfish personal gain involved, only bringing immense good for our family and ancestors, our karmic debtors, fetal spirits, etc.
Fans and readers who genuinely wish to learn the Dharma are in luck!
The ocean of Buddhadharma is vast and boundless. Many who tried to learn often lament that it is too profound to grasp. It is not possible for me to explain it all in just tea session. Hence, I will be conducting a series of talks, to expound on the order and sequence of learning the Dharma and spiritual practice.
Tea Session Topics:
1. Where should you begin in the journey of learning Dharma?
2. How should you recite the mantras and sutras, for maximum effect?
3. How can learning the Dharma become learning the ways of Mara (demon) instead?
4. How can you tell if others or yourself has already plunged into the realm of the Mara?
5. How can you protect yourself against Mara?
6. What should you do to get yourself back onto the Right Path?
7. How to incorporate spiritual practice in your modern day living
8. Is it true that the powers of the Buddha are unlimited and boundless?
And many more. I will be explaining each topic at the Tea Session this Thursday.
If you encounter any difficulty or doubt in your journey of learning the Dharma, I welcome you to come forth and seek my advice. Let me show you the light of clarity.
Or if you are at the crossroad, unsure which religion is best for you, please also come for this Tea Session to gain more understanding into Buddhism. An informed person makes the best life decisions.
