看完美劇金牌製作萊恩墨菲的「艷放80」 (POSE)今年第三季最終回,有種依依不捨的感覺,說明好劇能打動人心,果然艾美獎再獲提名,這齣講80年代紐約LGBT(女同、男同、雙性戀、跨性別)族群先驅的故事,華麗、殘酷、溫馨、傷感,幾乎由LGBT 包辦幕前主要演出與幕後製作的這齣美劇,堪稱是深入美國彩虹族群文化與衍進的透視鏡,有如LGBT版的「喜福會」。
三季故事架構主要在於「家庭」與「舞場」。但這裡的家庭並非原生家庭,而是由被原生家庭拋棄的跨性別者 (舊稱人妖與變性人)以「母親」 (Mother)身份自居,收養同樣不被見容原生家庭而流落街頭的性別邊緣淪落者,這些家庭成員相互依持包容、也有爭吵分歧,有「女兒」羽翼漸豐後背叛「母親」出來另組「家庭」、自己做「母親」再收容子女。
「舞場」 (Ball Room)也非一般跳舞池,而是80年代紐約LGBT特有的地下舞場文化,聚集著跨性別、性小眾、邊緣人,隨著每次競賽的主題做特殊妝扮變身,爭奇門艷奪取獎盃 (90年代才演變成對嘴演唱的變裝秀),劇中幾大「家庭」的「母親」帶著子女在「舞場」挖空心思的變裝走秀,拚個你死我活是全劇妝髮服裝設計與視覺享宴的一大看點 (艾美獎技術提名)。
2018年首季有80年代川普時代的初現,象徵金錢的紐約曼哈頓第五大道川普大樓裡,白人上班族迷戀跨性別黑人美女造成的動盪; 下城區同志夜店也有階層之分,跨性別者最被歧視拒絕入內。
2019年第二季從90年瑪丹娜名曲「Vogue」風靡,舞場舌璨蓮花主持人比利波特 (以首季獲艾美獎視帝的黑人同志男星)片頭詞,「The category is: live、work、pose」競賽項目是「生活、工作、姿態」。這裡的「姿態」當然是指LGBT族群要勇敢活著的生命姿態,同時也是包括瑪丹娜Vogue興起的折手舞所擺弄的時尚Pose。
被譽為2021上半年美劇佳作的第三季,在愛滋病恐懼侵襲下兩大家庭與母親開始蛻變,連珠炮罵人不嘴軟氣勢凌駕白人之上的母親始祖Elektra艾麗卡 (多明尼克傑克森)締造財富王國; 善良堅毅的第二代母親Blanca布蘭卡 (MJ羅德里格斯)愛情順遂子女成材,兩位演母親的黑人跨性別女演員都出色,尤其是今年終於贏得艾美獎女主角提名的MJ羅德里格斯,真想讓人鼓掌叫好。
家族最後一場舞會競演,MJ羅德里格斯與比利波特 (今年再度提名艾美視帝)聯手演出對嘴變裝秀,向黑人女歌神黛安娜蘿絲經典靈魂曲「愛比山高Ain't no mountain high enough」致敬,也唱出這個歷經苦樂起伏的LGBT家族之愛; 以及試驗愛滋新藥露出生命曙光其實另有隱情的比利波特卸妝換上絲質睡袍翩然迎接死亡,都看到讓人熱淚盈眶。
「被奪走的那種自由、還是從沒體會過的自由,那種更糟糕? 」這是劇中角色砥礪勇敢追求愛與人生,很重要的一句對白,看完「艷放80」最大收獲會對LGBT族群有不帶偏見的認知與看法。

野放台灣五十餘年,貪狼獨坐,三方四正殺破狼格局,少年多舛,白手起家,隨展覽雲遊四海,如閒雲野鶴常持各類底片機流連廢墟、山川、宮廟忘返,遂設幻影堂自詡堂主,一日三省「凡所有相皆是虛妄」,常宅於暗房沖片放大通宵、鍾情黑白世界之單純,彩色照片俗世繽紛花俏做作甜美甚至比現實更現實故少拍也。知天命之年有餘,了悟人生一瞬、眨眼即逝,雖非仙人,亦無道骨,初聞離垢地生清淨心,但離華嚴「不動地」尚遠,待修持也。
2017年盛暑拍畢《巨神連線》,心律不整差點心肌梗塞向閻羅王報到,意識死神隨伺在側,人生苦短,如何了生脫死、盡斷煩惱、無所罣礙、遠離顛倒……總不得解,蒙釋迦摩尼佛開示飆淚三晝夜,聞佛法數載始知自我渺如塵埃,甚感慚愧。閒暇乃參訪名寺古剎,禮敬焚香佛陀菩薩羅漢諸神天仙王爺媽娘,台灣宮廟千奇百怪、宗派錯綜複雜(佛教、道教、一貫道、天主教、基督教、齋教、回教&大同教、儒教鑾堂、天帝教&天德教、慈惠堂&勝安宮、軒轅教、道院、理教、萬國道德會、會靈山……)、神棍橫行(依人不依法、偶像崇拜、斂財、邪淫),因歷史變遷、社會動盪、政治鬥爭、意識形態等因素導致佛道混雜,但地獄造景稀少,後專注拍攝各殿閻王、判官、陰司、獄卒、七爺、八爺乃至一切罪人,各寺造景巧妙、耐人尋味,意境乖張溢於言表,造型扭曲非常人所能塑也,然匠心獨運、自成一格,專研西方藝術數十載方知真誠樸拙最美,絲毫不輸喬托(Giotto di Bondone,1267~1337)乃至米開朗基羅(Michelangelo Di lodovico Buonarroti Simoni 1475 ~ 1564)矣。
創立於1986年的石門金剛宮風景優美可眺望北濱,雖主祀四面佛,儒釋道眾神尊也不含糊,可過七星橋解厄、繞行五百黝黑羅漢敲鑼印心、跪拜亞洲最大臥佛涅槃像,安太歲自不在話下,甲子太歲爺雙眼長出手掌印象甚深,1994年經閻羅王指示廟公建造一條肚內設極樂世界及陰曹地府之神龍,行走暗黑通道觸動感應機關,只見面容猙獰受刑者呼天搶地喊冤、身邊盡是血肉糢糊殘肢敗屍腦漿塗地,十殿閻羅各司其職、威儀攝人。新北市林口區青嶺湖北文紫祥宮包公廟則以壁面彩塑地獄浮雕獨步全台,粉嫩色彩搭配卡漫風格,尤為造型簡直恐怖到可愛透頂,該廟主祀森羅殿閻羅天子包拯(包青天),陽世冤屈者可至此參拜祭解,求破懸案者眾,逢中元普渡皆以紙紮船渡亡魂至彼岸,全台唯一閻羅天子巨像籌備中,四周環繞墓地,適合修不淨觀也。台灣首尊彰化八卦山大佛旁南天宮(1971)地府則是首座電動地府,規模精小但驚嚇度破表,略顯破敗但五光十色仍蠻凶悍,出自已故台南大道長金登富之作,而電動神明起始可追溯至1960年代北港朝天宮。倒是嘉義水上鄉白人牙膏觀光工廠「戴相府」、「將軍府」設置十殿地府出乎意料之外,乾淨亮麗、ㄧ殿ㄧ間、簡單樸實。由高雄蓮潭龍虎塔龍口入內可見全臺唯一交趾陶地獄牆面,尊尊栩栩如生,續入龍身乃進聞聲救苦白衣觀音大士三十三化身浮雕隧道,造型設色甚為古錐。高雄大岡山超峰寺入口處「西方三聖蓮池海會」(阿彌陀佛、觀世音菩薩、大勢至菩薩巨像)旁設靜態十殿閻羅(1970年代初),雖略為陳舊然韻味猶存,續往上行可抵「證菩提道-釋迦如來應化事迹」雕塑園區,一攬世尊畢生精華。如來年邁時,琉璃國王為報長期被釋迦族輕蔑之傲慢心,世尊雖三次單獨伽跌坐 阻擋大軍進攻之路,但因緣果報無法逆轉,昔日婢女所生王子瞋恨無以復加,還是滅了祖國。自持神通第一目犍連不忍無辜百姓慘遭屠殺,遂以缽盛救度五百族人,最終卻化為血水,佛言神通廣大仍不敵千百劫業力,因緣果報屢試不爽。其母死後墜入餓鬼道飢餓難耐,目犍連遂展神通救渡,但所食尚未入口皆化為赤火,佛陀囑咐農曆七月十五日僧眾解安居自恣日,於盆中設甘露美食供養十方僧眾,因此超度亡母。後世「盂蘭盆法會」乃至「水懺法會」、「瑜珈焰口法會 」皆為消業障、斷塵垢之超渡儀軌,既渡亡魂也自懺悔。
台南麻豆代天府規模宏大、造型豔麗,不但可遊十八層地獄尚可逛天堂(1979年興建,1983年開放),燈光絢爛、聲響駭人,獨自漫步宛如觀落陰、地獄走一回。先過「心頭山」、入「清心池」、進「陰陽界」、抵「交簿廳」、達「鬼門關」、遊「補經所」、探「枉死城」、行「奈何橋」,至ㄧ殿泰廣王照「孽鏡台」現造惡原形,睹抱柱、火床等小地獄。二殿楚江王開「陰查簿 」判案定奪,觀糞尿泥、餓鬼、舞池、寒冰、膿血、鞭韃、舌犁、劍葉、戟腹拋接、砧截……等小地獄。三殿宋帝王刑罰為倒吊、銅鐵刮臉、挖眼、搗樁、倒烤、吸血、穿肋、抽筋、蛆蛀等小地獄……兼遊「四生(胎、卵、濕、化)回魂府」。四殿五官王掌管腰斬、拔舌、沸湯、刺嘴、剝皮、箭樹、車崩、射眼……等十六小地獄。隨五殿森羅王豋「望鄉臺」回眸親人最終眼後觀擊膝、誅心、刀山、飛刀火石……小地獄。六殿卞城王別稱「大叫喚大地獄」,轄火牛、虎啖、噬腎、鉗嘴含鍼、釘喉、磨摧、砍頭……等小地獄。七殿泰山王為「熱惱大地獄」,窺烙手指、抽腸、頂石蹲身、油釜滾烹、割舌穿腮……等十六小地獄。八殿都市王掌管「大熱惱大地獄」兼火狗、鐵汁、鐵蛇、鋸劈斷肢、釘板、灸脊、鐵丸、磅秤……等小地獄。九殿平等王直轄十八層「阿鼻大地獄」,直透地心、內中陰森、不見五指、滿溢地漿,皆為極犯,另轄紫赤毒蛇鑽孔、夾頂、鐵鴉、針雨、蜂蠍……等小地獄。至十殿輪轉王上「觀生臺」、「轉劫所八司」(查驗司 、稽善司 、考過司 、恩怨司 、壽命司 、支配司、掌劫司 、授生司)後至「孟婆亭」飲「醧忘湯」忘盡前塵往事,依前世功德過金、銀、玉、石、木、竹六種橋樑至「轉輪臺(紫河車)」入六道輪迴轉生投胎。據《十八泥犁經》記載,人過世後七七四十九天為「中陰生」,經閻羅王審判善惡業力判定去留或懲罰百千萬劫,犯五逆重罪則墮入「無間地獄(阿鼻地獄)」永劫不復。地藏王乃幽冥教主,統轄十殿閻羅,逢三曹普渡便在各殿設「講道所」超度尚存善根之鬼魂。
人類居於五趣(阿修羅、人、傍生、餓鬼、地獄)雜居地五濁惡世之堪忍世界,犯十惡業(殺生、偷盜、邪淫、妄語、兩舌、惡口、綺語、貪慾、嗔恚、愚痴)者必墮三趣惡道。如何出「三界」(欲界、色界、無色界)二十八天?凡人無此意識,別說能破「十二因緣」(無明、行、識、名色、六入、觸、受、愛、取、有、生、老死)還滅門,更別想斷除「四聖諦」(苦、集、滅、道)集地八十一品見惑與八十八使思惑(五利使-身見、邊見、邪見、見取見、戒禁取見、五鈍使-貪、瞋、癡、慢、疑),了悟「五蘊」(色、受、想、行、識)本空、「十二入」(眼、耳、鼻、舌、意、色、聲、香、味、觸、法)空、「十八界」空,破俱生我執與分別我執、法執甚至空執,生十一處「善心所」(信、精進、慚、愧、無貪、無瞋、無痴、輕安、不放逸、行捨、不害),降二十六處「惡心所」(貪、瞋、癡、慢、疑、惡見、忿、恨、覆、惱、嫉、慳、誑、諂、害、憍、無慚、無愧、掉舉、惛沉、不信、懈怠、放逸、失念、散亂、不正知),須知善根斷盡則陷永劫輪迴、無垠轉世之苦。
地獄可能空滅嗎?若地獄空乏人間多鬼怪,地獄淨空世間何嘗非淨土?若能證空性何處現地獄?
地獄曠古來便廣泛流傳各部族間,老死生滅為自然運行之基礎、宇宙意識之核心,然今文明昌盛如咱城邦並非慾望消弭之所,惡性所及實無可根除,礙於憲法國家法律社會軍隊企業公司學校家庭團體之層層束縛不亞於十八層,乃遁於壓抑、束己情懷,暗埋心底、日久貪嗔痴慢疑怨噌會疊穢。而六塵未熄,心多妄念,妖魔鬼怪魑魅魍魎孤魂閃靈出沒於荒郊乃至人間,會靈於曠野密林以增性靈乃出世高人修煉之舉,我等凡人擅闖宛如迪士尼般之人造地獄,三魂七魄尚不足以出竅,驚邪恐怖淒厲猙獰倒滿足了自以為是的慚愧,豈不謬哉?

Postscript
I have been living recklessly in Taiwan for more than fifty years. According to Zi Wei Dou Shu (Purple Star Astrology), Tan Lang is the sole star in my house of Self. This star, which represents xxx, forms an equilateral triangle with that star Qi Sha and Po Jun on the square chart and constitutes a Sha Po Lang pattern. The pattern indicates a kind of turbulence and change, a life of wandering with ups and downs and it tells a lot about my life. After my ill-fated youth, I started from scratch and traveled around the world with exhibitions that I participated. Like a flaneur, I wandered around ruins, nature, and temples with every type of film camera obliviously. Thus, I founded the Hall of Illusion and claimed to be the master of the hall. Several times a day, I pondered a quote from the Diamond Sutra, “Everything with form is unreal.” In addition, I usually stayed in the darkroom developing film and enlarging those negatives overnight. However, I treasured the simplicity of the black and white world. The earthly, gaudy, garish, phony and pleasing qualities within colored photos make the images even more realistic than the real world. It is not my cup of tea, so I seldom took colored photos. In Confucian thought, the age of fifty marks the stage knowing the mandate of Heaven. I am now at my fifties and realize how ephemeral human life is. However, I am not an immortal, nor having sagelike characteristics. I just learned that the stage of stainless (the second bhūmi) and develop a pure mind that is free from doubt and defilement. However, I’m still far from the immovable state and need to practice.
In the summer of 2017, after filming the work Incarnation, I experienced a severe heart rhythm problem which almost triggered myocardial infarction and could have killed me. Consequently, I realized that death was waiting for me and the life is too short to figure out how I can liberate myself from the cycle of Birth and Death. I couldn’t comprehend how to be free from all afflictions and worries and how to avoid delusive ideas. I wept for three days and nights after being enlightened by Shakyamuni Buddha. Up to the moment, I felt ashamed that I failed to realize that the self is as insignificant as dust after these years learning and practicing Buddhism. Since then, I have visited famous temples and monasteries in my spare time, worshiping Buddha, Bodhisattvas, arhats, and all the deities and immortals. Taiwan’s temples are myriad with a enormous number of sects, including Buddhism, Taoism, Yiguandao, Catholicism, Christianity, Chinese religions of fasting, Islam& Baháʼí Faith, Confucianism, Tiandiism& Tian-De Teachings, Xiwangmu cult, Yellow Emperor Sect, Precosmic Salvationism, Liism, World Wide Ethical Society, séance cult, etc. Some people even claim that they can mediate communication between the deities or spirits of the dead with human beings, having their believer rely on themselves instead of the orthodox dharma or dogma and pay excessive respect and admiration for the mediums or objects, accumulating wealth through such an unfair means or even harassing their believer sexually. Due to Taiwan’s historical changes, social turbulence, political struggles, and ideological issues, Buddhism and Taoism are somehow mixed. However, there are few emphases on the concept of the hell. As I took photographs of Yama of each court, judges, wardens of the underworld, jailers, General Fan and Hsieh (the ghost escorts) and all sinners, I found few temples cleverly created hellish scenes that are intriguing, exaggerating, and extraordinary. However, the creations are unparalleled unique. I have been studying Western arts for decades and then I came to realize that simplicity makes the most beautiful works of art. These hellish scenes can even compete with works of Giotto di Bondone (1267-1337) and Michelangelo Di lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (1475-1564).
Jingang Temple Shimen District, founded in 1986, overlooks the beautiful North shore. Although the temple is mainly dedicated to Phra Phrom (the Thai representation of Mahabrahma), spirits of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism can also be founded in the temple. The worshipper can go cross the Seven Star bridge to relieve bad luck, walk along the five hundred arhat statues and knock on the gong to affirm one’s Buddha nature. Furthermore, the worshipper can also prostrate themself before Asia’s largest statue of Buddha in Nirvana (the Reclining Buddha statue) and pacify the Taoist Tai Sui deity of the year. I was impressed by the Jia-Zi Tai Sui General that a pair of palms grow out of his eyes. In 1994, the biō-kong (the person taking charge of the temporal affairs of a temple) received a divine inspiration from Yama (the King of Hell) that he had to build a sacred hall in the shape of a divine dragon, with the interior designed according to the World of Ultimate Bliss and the Underworld. When the visitor walks in the dark hallway, they will see the tortured people (dioramas, of course) scrunching their faces and crying bitterly and loudly in excessive grief as the visitor triggers the mechanism. One will even find them in the midst of flesh, body liquid and blood, mutilated limbs, and rotten corpses. While each of the ten Yamas are focusing on their own duties, showing their sacred dignity that collect visitors’ attention. The Baogong Temple in Linkou District, New Taipei City exclusively features colorful depiction of hellish scenes in relief in Taiwan. With its pastel shades and cartoon-like style, the relief is both grotesque and adorable at the same time. This temple is dedicated to Bao Zhen (also known as Justice Bao) representing the incarnation of Yama. Living people who have been treated unjustly can come worshipping Bao Gong and receive exorcism. Therefore, many people come here for seeking to solve unsolved cases. In Zhongyuan Festival (the ghost festival), the temple will burn the Zhizha (paper craft) boat to ferry the ghosts to the other shore, which is the shore of enlightenment. The only giant statue of Yama in Taiwan is still in the making. The temple is surrounded by a cemetery, suitable for meditating on the loathsomeness and impurity. Nantian Temple (1971), located next to the Eight Trigram Mountains Buddha in Changhua, features the first animatronic underworld. Despite the small size, the animatronic underworld is intensely shocking. Though it’s slightly worn, the colorful dioramas are still brutally ferocious. The creator was the late venerable Dao Zhang (Taoist priest) Jing Deng-fu while the origin of animatronic deities can be traced back to the 1960s Beigang Chaotian Temple. On the contrary, the Whiteman Toothpaste Tourism Factory in Shuishang Township, Chiayi, features ten Yamas with individual booth. The place is unexpectedly clean and polished yet keeps a simple and modest tone. Then, the Dragon Pagoda of the Dragon and Tiger Pagodas at Lotus Lake in Zuoying, Kaohsiung, holds the only relief of hellish scenes made of Kochin ceramic. All the figures are vivid and life-like. If one goes further into the pagoda, they will see a relief tunnel of the thirty-three incarnations of the white-robed form of Guanyin (Avalokiteśvara) on a white lotus, with a lovely and interesting design. Another Hall of Yama is built in the 1970s next to the entrance of Dagangshan Chaofeng Temple, located in the Alian District of Kaohsiung. Visitors will also see three statues of the Three Holy Ones of the Western Pureland (Amitābha, Avalokiteśvara, Mahāsthāmaprāpta) which assemble at a lotus pond. Although the hellish scene looks somewhat antiquated, you may still find its previous charm. If one goes further, they will reach the sculptural garden of “Attaining the Bodhi Way: the Incarnation of Sakyamuni Buddha,” where the visitor can see the essence of Bhagavato’s (meaning the Blessed one, one of the common epithets for Buddha) life. When Tathāgata (another epithet for Buddha) was old, the king of Kosala wanted to avenge the arrogance of the tribe of Shakyas who had long despised him, regarding him as a son of a maiden. Although Buddha has sat in lotus position alone three times to stop the army from attacking his tribe. However, one can never reverse the cause and following karma. The prince born of a maiden was so furious that he eventually destroyed his homeland. Maudgalyāyana (one of the Buddha’s closest disciples), who is said to have had supernatural abilities that surpassed the other disciples, could not bear to see the slaughter of innocent people. Thus, he saved five hundred people of his tribe with a pātra (an eating utensil of Buddhist monks). Unfortunately, everything he did was in vain, those who were saved eventually turned into a puddle of blood. The Buddha said that the supernatural abilities cannot surpass the power of karma. The cause and effect work all the time. When Maudgalyāyana’s mother fell into the path of hungry ghost, he used his supernatural abilities to save his mother from hunger. However, all the food turned into fire before being fed to his mother. Later, the Buddha commanded the monks to put nectar and dishes in a basin on the 15th day of the seventh month in the lunar calendar for the monks from all directions to free his mother from reincarnation. In later times, the Ullambana Dharma Service, the Compassionate Samadhi Water Repentance, and the Yoga Collection for Feeding the Searing Mouths Dharma Service are rituals to eliminate karmic hindrance and to cease to worldly delusions. Through such practices, one can free the dead as well as confess their repentance.
Madou Daitian Temple is a magnificent and colorful temple in Tainan. Not only can the worshippers visit the eighteen levels of Hell but also the Heaven (it was built in 1979 and inaugurated in 1983) here. The lighting and sound effects are stunning and frightening. When walking alone in the space, one may feel like taking a Guan Luo Yin trip (a Taoist necromancy which leads people’s spirits to hell and communicate with the dead ones) to visit the underworld prison. Before arriving the first court of the underworld, the visitor will walk through the Mountain of Heart Summit, the Pure Heart Pond, the Frontier between the Living and the Dead Realms, the Soul Registry Hall, the Portico of Demons, the Center for Complementary Teaching of Canonical Books, the Citadel of Premature Death, and the Bridge of Vanity. When one arrives at the first court, they will see King Chin-guang, who is in charge of the court, using the Mirror of Retribution to show the earthly form of evil creatures and also witness the sub-hell of Pillar-Holding and Fire Bed, etc. At the second court, King Chu-jiang collates the register of sins the souls of the dead have committed to impose the punishments. Here, you will see the sub-hell of Excrement and Urine, Hungry Ghost, Burning Dance Floor, Ice, Pus and Blood, Whipping, Tongue-Raking, Sword Blade, Stomach-Piercing, Chopping, etc. Next, the dead at the third court, ruled by King Song-di, will receive the punishments including inversion tortures, face-skinning with steel and copper knife, eye-wrenching, pounding, blood-sucking, rib-piercing, roasting, tendon-taking, being eaten by maggots. The visitor can pay a visit to the Palace of Soul-Resuscitation for the Four Forms of Creatures (birth from an egg, birth from a womb, birth from moisture, and birth by transformation). King Wu-guan is in charge of the fourth court. There are sixteen sub-hells at the fourth court including Waist Chop, Tongue Removal, Boiling Pond, Mouth-stabbing, Skin-peeling, Sword Tree, Burning Wheels and Cart, Eye-shooting, etc. Next, at the fifth court, sinful souls are allowed to ascend the Tower of Hometown-Viewing to take a final look of their family. The visitor will witness sub-hells of Knee-striking, Heart-slicing, Blade Mountain, Flying Swords and Burning Stones, etc. The King of Bian City takes charge of the sixth court, which is also known as the “Great Hell of Screaming,” with sub-hells including Fire Cattle, Tiger-Biting, Kidney-Eating, Mouth-Poking, Throat-Nailing, Iron Mill, Decapitation, etc. The King of Tai-shan is in charge of the seventh court, the “Great Hell of Heat and Fire.” The sixteen sub-hells at this court include Finger-Searing, Bowel-Hauling, Stone-Bearing, Boiling Oil, Tongue-Removal and Cheek-Piercing, etc. Next, the King Du-shi is in charge of the eighth court, the “Great Hell of Intense Fire and Heat,” and the sub-hells including Fire Dogs, Molten Iron, Iron Snakes, Dismemberment, Steel Spikes, Burning-Marrow, Iron Ball, Scale, etc. The ninth court is ruled by the King Ping-deng. It is known as the biggest court, Avici Hell (the Hell of Incessant Suffering), which if the lowest level of the hell realm and the interior is gloomily and terrifyingly dark. Those who committed the most serious evil deed will be sent to the Avici Hell. Sub-hells such as Poisonous Snake, Brain-Removal, Crow-Gnawing, Raining Needles, Wasps and Scorpions are included at this court. After arriving the tenth court, ruled by the Great King of the Reincarnation Palace, one can visit the “Observatory of Life on earth” and the “eight bureaus of the Reincarnation Palace” (including the Bureau of Judicial Control, the Bureau of Good-Actions, the Bureau of Bad-Actions, the Bureau of Debts, Gratitude, and Vengeance, the Bureau of Longevity and Destiny, the Bureau of Familial Ties, the Bureau of the Reincarnated, and the Bureau of Birth). The sinful one will be sent to the Pavilion of Mengpo and made to drink the Soup of Forgetfulness to forget all past affairs. According to the sinful one’s merits of previous life, they will go across one of the six bridges (gold, silver, jade, stone, wood, bamboo) to the “Reincarnation-Wheel (Wheel on the Crimson River).” Finally, one is able to reborn in the six realms. According to the Aṣṭadaśa nāraka sutra ( the Eighteen Hells Sutra), after one passes away, they will enter an intermediate and transitional state between death and rebirth, known as antarābhava in Sanskrit, for forty-nine days. The being will be evaluated by Yama, who will decide if one should get reborn or get punished at the hell. Those who committed the Five Grave Offenses (killing one’s father, killing one’s mother, killing an Arhat, shedding the blood of a Buddha, and creating a schism within the community of Buddhist monks and nun who practice for attaining enlightenment.) will be sent to the Avici Hell and stay there eternally. Kṣitigarbha is the Lord of the Nether World, ruling the ten court of Hell. The lord will set up the “Hall of Teaching” at each court to salvage those sinful ones who still obtain few merits at the offering rituals.
Human beings live the Sahā world (sahāloka in Sanskrit, meaning “endurance of suffering,” a concept of mundane world in Mahāyāna Buddhism) where they share with other reincarnations (including beings of the hells, of the preta, and of malevolent nature spirits) with five turbidities (the Kalpa turbidity, the view turbidity, the affliction turbidity, the living beings turbidity, and the life turbidity). Those who commit the ten evil deeds (killing, stealing, adultery, lying, using immoral language, slandering, equivocating, coveting, anger, and false views) must fall into the three evil paths (animals, preta, and hell). However, how can one escape from the three realms/ twenty-eight heavens (including the six heavens of the desire realm, the eighteen heavens of the form realm, and the four heavens of the formless realm)? Worldly people who don’t have such an awareness cannot leave the cycle of the twelve nidanas (meaning causes or motivations), let alone eliminate the eighty-one afflictions (that have been produced due to misunderstanding regarding reality) and the eighty-eight illusions (including five afflictions of advanced practitioners, also known as five views: view of self, extreme view, evil view, view of attachment to views, and view of morality; and five unintelligent temptations: desire, anger, stupidity, arrogance, and doubt) of thought within the three realms and four Arya satyas (noble truths, including suffering, arising, ending, and path). They cannot realize that the essence of the five skandhas (referring to aggregates of clinging, including the matter of form, sensation, recognition, mental formation, and consciousness) , the twelve ayatana (meaning sense base, including six internal bases: eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, and mind and six external bases: visible objects, sound, odor, taste, touch, and mental objects), and the eighteen dhātavah (meaning compositional elements of human existence, including six consciousness, six faculties, and their objects) are the emptiness and the void. Furthermore, they cannot dispel the two reasons for clinging to the idea of the self and the attachment to elemental constructs and even believe in the two (false) tenets that that karma and nirvana are not real and that the ego and phenomena are real. As a consequence, they fail to develop the eleven wholesome mental factors (faith, energy, conscience, being ashamed, non-attachment, non-aggression, non-delusion, calmness, equanimity, conscientiousness, and non-injuriousness) and cease the sixteen unwholesome mental factors (desire, greed, anger, delusion, arrogance, doubt, wrong view, wrath, enmity, hypocrisy, vexation, jealousy, parsimony, deceit, flattery, harming, ambitiousness, stupidity, lacking of faith, idleness, being unrestrained, forgetting, distraction, non-discernment, ). One must bear in mind that once all our virtuous roots are discontinued, they will be trapped in the never-ending reincarnation and the suffering of infinite continuity.
Is it possible that the hell will be empty one day? If the beings in hell will become extinct while evil spirits inhabit the mundane world, the world could be considered as a pure land. If we could witness the nature of the void, then hell will exist no more.
Since ancient times, the concept of hell has been widely spread among all tribes. Aging, death, beginning, and end are the basis of nature and the core of cosmic consciousness. However, the prosperous civilization as our island is not a place where desire can be eliminated. It’s impossible to eradicate evil nature. Since fetters brought by the constitution, the state, the law, society, the military, corporations, schools, families, and groups are not less than the eighteen levels of hell, the mortals repress themselves, bury their feelings. Day after day, greed, anger, stupidity, arrogance, doubt, and resentment are stacking. However, since the six dust (visible objects, sound, odor, taste, touch, and mental objects) has not yet been extinguished, people in the mundane world are still full of delusions. The demons, devils, evil spirits, and the wondering dead exist in the wilderness, while only advanced practitioners with transcendent would attempt to make contact with the dead in the wasteland and forest. Worldly people like us trespass in Disneyland-like man-made hell. It is absurd and ridiculous that the hellish scenes cannot stop us from perpetrating evil deeds, but the horrific and cruel scenes yet satisfy our self-righteous shame.
The pandemic has been boiling over for more than a year and a half. The number of infected patients worldwide is nearly a hundred and eighty million, and the death toll has risen to four million, which is equivalent to a war crisis. I hope that we can all be compassionate, give peace to the dead, treat all sentient beings well and equally. The hell is innately empty; however, deluded and misleading thoughts would give rise to all jealousy and hatred and then manifest the hell before us. This book merely serves as a memorandum of conscience for dictators of the world’s new cold war, supporters of unrestrained warfare, dark web hackers, and those who are cunning and contemptuous and maltreat others when knowing they have problems.

妖 蘭 卡 池 在 Facebook 的最佳貼文
在讀《波斯語課》的簡介,才想到自己原來是去過波斯這個國家的,也留下了文字。一直被誤解,但真是好美麗的國家呢。
《每個莊佳村都在等在他的席德進》
「伊斯法罕窮盡半個世界之美」,伊朗俗諺如是說。古城可沒枉擔了這個虛名,伊瑪目廣場處處是觀光馬車達達的馬蹄聲,皇后清真寺前的青青草地,都有一家老小席地坐著野餐。這是昔日薩法威王朝的首都,處處清真寺和王宮華美的宅子,宅子前必然有玫瑰花園和流泉水池,伊朗人說因為天堂本該有這些東西。
女士們先生們,請換上長褲長袖,穿上最保守的衣物,歡迎來到何梅尼的天堂。
「兄弟,難道你就要這樣穿短褲進伊朗嗎?」在曼谷轉機飛德黑蘭,出空橋排隊等安檢時,領隊趙先生看了一眼我的穿著,突然拔高了音量。
「長褲子放在大行李箱,我打算出了機場才換。」我一派無所謂的樣子。
「我們是去伊朗!伊朗!入了空橋就等於入了伊朗國境!大庭廣眾穿短褲視同穿內褲上街!」趙先生再度重申在伊朗的服裝儀容:男孩子穿長褲;女生綁頭巾,長袖長褲,外衣覆蓋住臀部,勿露手臂、腳趾,勿顯露女性特徵。
「也許你們去過土耳其、杜拜,會覺得為什麼那邊可以,這邊不可以,但你們要搞清楚,你們以往去的都是回教遜尼教派國家,伊朗是什葉派。兩者風土民情完全不同!」趙先生說。
在機場免稅店為著一條長褲而奔走,心裡碎唸著什麼國家這樣龜毛,媽的,大不了心一橫進Prada亮出信用卡刷他一條牛仔褲便是。人還未到伊朗,就已感到來自那國家惘惘的威脅。
曼谷到德黑蘭,八小時漫長飛行,因是回教班機,自然討不到酒喝,索性專心看書,把遜尼派和什葉派的恩怨釐清楚:前者最高領袖為阿里發(Caliphate),意即先知代理人,後者領導為伊瑪目(Iman),意即禮拜的導師。穆罕默德去世後,一派人認為應該推選賢能當接班人,另一派人推舉穆罕默德的堂弟兼女婿阿里為伊瑪目,血緣世襲或推舉有德者繼任的紛爭分裂成兩股不同政治勢力,造成中東地區近千年的爭端。兩伊戰爭除了國土問題,遜尼、什葉教派的宗教矛盾亦是主因。
飛機一落地,一干女孩旋即綁上頭巾,把自己全副武裝起來。出了機場,天微微的亮,清晨四點鐘,空氣中提醒著禱告的廣播此起彼落。此行由德黑蘭往南,前往伊斯法汗(Esfahan)、波斯帝國發源地色拉子(Shiraz),然後搭機返德黑蘭,再搭車殺到裏海。德黑蘭到卡珊(Kashan),沿途兩百四十幾公里,所見無非烤焦土司般的焦褐土地和光禿禿的山,可一過卡珊,窗外景致陡然一變,萬物生長,吸收陽光的花與樹,一片欣欣向榮。
沙漠綠洲城 卡珊舊為綠洲城市。參觀布裘台故居(Borujerdies house)和費因花園(Fin Garden),華麗建築、氣派宅子都可看出城市輝煌過往。這個布裘台是大絲路時期某布綢大王,他是誰根本不重要,重點是他家很氣派。嚴嚴實實的木門蓋得固若金湯,叩叩門環,左側木樁,右側鐵環,男左女右,敲起來聲響不同,內院女眷聽著了男子叩著沉甸甸的木樁,就知道要走避。庭院裡美麗噴泉倒映著美麗宅子,牆上刻著生動的神獸和植物。因為天氣炎熱,建築都往地下挖了好幾層。
伊朗有四十六個台灣大,小鎮只能是驚鴻一瞥,又要繼續趕路。清晨出發,抵達目的地伊斯法罕已經天黑。進了飯店上網,發現臉書、Twitter全被鎖起來。去年伊朗大選爆發選舉不公,國外媒體爭相在臉書Twitter散播德黑蘭爆發流血衝突的新聞,然後,這些網站全都上不了了。原來,在《在德黑蘭讀羅莉塔》這本書所說的都是真的。
我對這個國家的理解大抵來自一本叫做《在德黑蘭讀羅莉塔》的書。故事背景是上世紀八○年代,巴勒維國王被罷黜,何梅尼掌權,成立政教合一的伊朗伊斯蘭共合國。
那時候,西方種種一切文化事物都被禁絕,作者納菲西是德黑蘭大學英美文學教授,召集了一群婦人在家偷讀西方文學經典。政治不正確加上性別錯誤,這班女人活得莫可奈何。當我們希望我們的政治人物去死只是一種情緒宣洩,可納菲西說在她時代裡要誰去死,就真的是去死了。
彼時,處處都聽得見扣上板機的清脆聲響,每個人都在射程裡。
我打開電視,裹著頭巾的女人壓低喉嚨播新聞,因為不懂那話語,在我耳朵聽來就只有聲音和憤怒。這是多沉悶的城市呀, 可它偏偏又這麼美麗。
隔日來到伊瑪目廣場。看到這個僅次於天安門,地球上第二大廣場四周座落著薩法威王朝的建築──伊瑪目清真寺、皇后清真寺和阿利喀普宮殿,不由得張大嘴巴哇了出來,真美。
建築的歷史也等於城市的歷史。薩法威王朝君主阿拔斯一世(Shah Abbas I)重振波斯帝國雄風,他遷都伊斯法罕,蓋阿歷喀普宮。宮殿前的操場(Maidan)即伊瑪目廣場,阿拔斯國王喜歡在的露台看操場上駱駝商隊,看禁衛軍操練,看眾生百態,那俯看的視野是一種神的視野。
和宮殿相對的皇后清真寺是阿拔斯妻子柔特菲拉的嫁妝,也是皇室朝拜阿拉的神聖場所。因為要避著閒雜人等,宮殿有密道直接通往清真寺。走進了皇后清真寺,穿越彎曲的通道,走進主殿,視野陡然一亮,圓形穹頂中心點是孔雀開屏一樣華麗的璧畫,將眾人收攏在那樣一片金色的光輝中。若說皇后清真寺展現的是波斯工藝不厭精細的華麗面,又名國王清真寺的伊瑪目清真寺就是張顯建築的霸氣和神性了。
彼時什葉派承認薩法威家族繼承穆罕默德的流派,阿拔斯大帝則投桃報李,為什葉派教徒建壯觀美麗的伊瑪目清真寺。清真寺主殿不與正門對稱,拐個彎朝麥加的方向斜四十五度角。寶藍色的穹頂映襯著寶藍色的天空,陽光照在浮雕、貼璧磚牆,暗暗的陰影凸顯出建築刀鋒一樣銳利的邊緣。
國王清真寺 伊朗人都說「伊斯法罕窮盡半個世界之美」(Esfahan is half the world),而這城市也沒枉擔了這個虛名:廣場上達達的馬蹄聲是觀光馬車,一簇簇的玫瑰花園都有一家老小席地坐著野餐。夜鶯由路畔一棵樹飛過一棵樹,也許已經繞完了整個廣場,貓兒輕盈地由一座又一座花園牆頭走過。
廣場真大,一整天都逛不完。清真寺和宮殿之間是數不盡的舖子和商店,這裡是伊斯法罕最著名的巴扎(市集)。陰暗的鋪子散著成捲的地毯、蕃紅花香料、可蘭經、貓毛筆,華麗的孔雀毛扇子在黑暗中開屏。市集當然也賣好吃的茶食和餐點。傳統伊朗餐,烤肉串飯,波斯米綴著黃蘿蔔絲,粒粒分明的米飯,爽口口感又有羊肉油香,好吃極了。
走在市集幽暗過道,狹路相逢幾名包得嚴實的婦人,黑暗中黑衣黑裙,僅剩下一張臉飄浮在半空中。飄浮的臉停留在華美的內衣鋪子,戀戀不捨的目光。
大環境或許是嚴峻的,可關起門來,一件好看的衣服倒還是有著自己的容身之處。
伊朗的食物吃來吃去都一樣,烤羊肉串飯是伊朗國民美食。
波斯古市集 伊朗婦女包得嚴實,可街上男孩,大多緊身襯衫窄版牛仔褲,妖魅異常。趙先生說不要隨隨便便把相機鏡頭對準伊朗人,可伊朗人偏偏很愛找人拍照。傍晚時分,我坐在噴泉旁吃蕃紅花冰淇淋,一個男孩見著了像我這樣小鼻子小眼睛的外邦人覺得有趣,湊過來說一起合照吧。
「為什麼不呢?」我說:「反正今天已經和十一個人合照了。」我們併肩坐著,依稀都能聞得到他身上淡淡香氣。這就是老美眼中邪惡的伊朗恐怖分子。天色已黃昏。伊斯法罕的每一座噴泉都亮起了燈,每一隻夜鶯都開始歌唱。
「喜歡伊朗嗎?」男孩問。
「很漂亮,可惜喝不到酒,點不到咖啡喝呢,女孩子都要綁著頭巾。」我略帶挑釁的說。
「呵呵呵,」男孩笑著說:「我們也希望她們摘下頭巾,那是每個伊朗男人的夢想。」
單字用完了,不知道怎麼回答了,就只是呆呆看著噴泉裡藍色清真寺的倒映。
我又嘖了一聲:「怎麼伊朗到處都是水池噴泉,哈鳩橋、三十三孔橋、四十柱廳,真的,每一個花園、每一個清真寺,無一例外。」
「啊,你難道不知那是波斯人對天堂的想像嗎,天堂本該就有花園、有噴泉的。」
「所以我們在天堂?」
「我們在天堂。」男孩笑著對我說,非常真誠的笑容,可《在德黑蘭讀羅莉塔》那些對伊朗男人控訴好像也是真的。我有點混淆了,不知道哪一方相信誰。只好盯著水池看。
一名死小孩跳進噴泉裡用力踩著水,完美的清真寺倒映被踩成一片碎裂光影, 小孩給母親給架走了,水面旋即恢復平靜,天堂的倒影。也許對何梅尼的崇拜、天堂的想像、女性主義的控訴無非如此,皆是鏡花水月,一切都是虛妄,但那是佛的道理,我的英文沒有好到足以對一個回教青年完整解釋這一切。

"在選定之杖引導下、在異邦的旅人守望下、救贖之子將抵達王座"
要打倒不列顛攻略關鍵的異聞帶之王「摩根」。
其方法,是與預言之歌中所傳唱的「預言之子」一同敲響六大氏族所守護的「巡禮之鐘」的旅程。
在預言中的異邦的魔術師———迦勒底的御主和「預言之子」一同在不列顛旅行,成為了證明。
消除了災厄、獲得謁見女王機會的一行人前往了妖精國的首都,罪都卡美洛。
「預言」與「災厄」。「妖精」與「人類」。
各自的盤算交錯的盡頭所等待著他們的結局會是………?
