In this chapter, Shifu said, we have to work hard towards:
1)Dana 2)Precept and 3)Meditation so that we can continue to be in human or deva realm.
I start to do my daily check list:
1) Dana – Yes, is in my check list, but…??? Shifu said the “Intention” of doing the Dana?? Never cross in my mind. Then I try to play back my memory:
a) Yes, sometime I do it base on sympathy, don’t know how to reject, the understanding of giving is better than taking and sometime just do it without thinking or feeling.
b) Depend on capability. Can I afford to do it at that moment?
c) Sometime is the feeling. Should or shouldn’t do the dana.
2) Precept – after undearstanding the teaching of the Buddha and the precept:
a) No Killing – my BIG EFFORT by not taking meat. Not to harm living beings as much as possible. (This precept really helps me a lot on my craving for “wanting”
b) Stealing – will always remind myself that taking or borrowing without permission/asking is also a form of stealing. Don’t take for granted.
c) Adultery – Not an issue for me. Just have to remind myself that only husband and wife got the permit.
d) Speech – this part SUSAH lor…, but really appreciate that I’m surrounded by brother and sister that keep on reminding me using the dharma.
e) Drinking/drug – this one no problem.
3) Meditation – Ohh… this one VERY SUSAH lor..for me. Monkey mind. Did not really put an effort on it. No comment..
Wow… conclusion that I can see is that my “FU PAU” much much better from many people. But still have to work hard to accumulate “FU PAU”.
【 Try to extend your effort to meditation, clear and calm mind is very important to have more “FU PAU”.】
