《玳瑚師父的看見（五）》(English version below)
THE SIGHTINGS OF MASTER DAI HU (5)

起初吾不甚明白，何謂心、佛、眾生。集合了多年多次的法會灌頂，根本傳承上師的摩頂大加持，恆持的佛法實修，出外弘法及玄學利生，開放電話廣利有情，寫文章渡眾生等等，到了目前這歲數，才明白心、佛、眾生，是一而不是二。到了目前這歲數，也方才明白，爲何佛教密宗，首重根本傳承上師，根本傳承上師加持力的不可思議。佛法是開啟心門的唯一鑰匙。心門一開啟，無量光明照破無明，這是心王之住所，佛法的最初與最終，佛法的真實義。佛曰心外無法，此言極是。佛曰萬法唯心，此言亦極是，半點不差矣。

在鬧區的某間五星級賓館裡，吾全神貫注的爲一位女學生，批看其期待已久的八字大運。在講解其大運一半時，吾看見她八字大運中，即將來臨的大血光之災。吾，玳瑚師父，自小就不喜也不忍心見到，動物或人流血。但是吾是位有誓願在身的修行師父，吾不祇要實言相告於她，且要想方設法助她渡過這大劫。於是吾先柔聲問她，是否有過意外而流多血，她回記憶中沒有。吾告訴她未來的一兩年裡，切記吾的話，要多加注意健康，一切冒險活動勿參與。事實上，她那時正懷著第三胎，吾彷彿知曉，這第三胎會帶給她不詳。有一天她先生，也是吾學生，飛奔的來找吾，並帶來一個非常不好的消息，那就是他太太大量失血，正在搶救中。

恰逢本宗派有高僧，來新加坡主持法會，且是護摩大法會。吾叫這位男學生趕緊去法會，爲其命在旦夕的老婆，報名以及請購護摩供品，再將供品下護摩爐，虔心誠意祈求諸佛菩薩、護法諸尊慈悲賜吉祥賜福於他的老婆。事後他告知我們，他老婆是輸了七包血，才得以「重見天日」的。這位男學生也告訴我們，他下護摩爐的供品，不多不少就是七包。「七」爲佛教圓滿數。「七」爲宇宙循環之密碼之一。《玳瑚師父的看見（五）》收錄了這真實的渡眾生事件，主要是告訴妳你們，佛菩薩護法諸尊之力不可思議，以及當玳瑚師父給於妳你的忠言，千千萬萬不要忠言逆耳。

In the beginning, I had trouble understanding these three terms: Heart, Buddha and Sentient Beings. After accumulating many years of receiving empowerment at the Puja events, head blessings from my Root Guru Master, persistent practical cultivation of the Dharma, going out to propagate the Dharma and Chinese Metaphysics and benefit sentient beings, opening up my phone line to widely help sentient beings, writing articles to deliver sentient beings, etc, I finally understand, at this age of mine, that the Heart, Buddha and Sentient Being are One, and not divided. Only at my current age do I understand why the Vajrayana school of Buddhism places foremost importance on the Root Guru Master and why His empowerment is unimaginable. The Dharma is the only key to unlocking the door of your heart, and once the door of your heart is unlocked, the Immeasurable Light will overcome the darkness of Ignorance. This is the abode of the King of Heart, the beginning and eventual goal of the Dharma, the real meaning of Buddhism. The Buddha expounded that there is no Dharma outside of your heart. How very true! The Buddha expounded that all Dharmadhatu arises from our Buddha's Nature. This is the absolute truth.

I was at a certain 5-star hotel in town, in full focus of conducting a long-awaited Bazi analysis for a female student of mine. Halfway into explaining her luck cycles, I noticed that she was going to experience a severe blood disaster in the near future. Since young, Master Dai Hu is a person who does not like and cannot bear to see another person or animal shed blood. As a spiritual practitioner with vows, not only did I plan to tell her this divination, I also intended to spare no effort to help her escape this fate. Thus, I gently asked if she had any accident before that involved blood loss. She told me that she did not recall any. I told her that in the next one to two years, she must remember my words and take extra caution with her health, and avoid all risky activities. Fact is, she was pregnant with her 3rd child during that time, and I had the hunch that this unborn child will bring misfortune to her. One day, her husband, also a student of mine, came rushing to me and told me that her wife lost a lot of blood and was under emergency rescue.

Coincidentally, there was a puja event by my Buddhist sect and several eminent Vajra Masters were in Singapore. I told this male student of mine to quickly attend the puja event and do a registration for his wife, whose life was going to be on a precarious tenure. In addition, I told him to purchase offerings for the fire offering and make an utmost sincere prayer to the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas and the Dharma Protectors to compassionately bless his wife with good fortunes. After everything, he told me that the doctors transfused 7 bags of blood to successfully resuscitate his wife. He also told us that the offerings he offered during the Fire Offering was exactly 7 packets! The number 7 is considered a complete and perfect number in Buddhism. This number is also one of the secrets of the Universe cycle. I include this true story of delivering sentient beings in this article The Sightings Of Master Dai Hu (5), mainly to tell you the unimaginable powers of the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas and the Dharma Protectors, as well as never ever ignore the well-meaning advice Master Dai Hu gives you.

【相煎何太急】(English writing below)

「90%以上的風水師都把基本原理搞錯了！」

那天看到某個剛出道的本地年輕人，在其網站上如此寫著。

我第一個感想就是：有必要為了錢，就這樣踩人和騙人嗎？

全世界的風水師，你都見證過他們的功夫嗎？

遠的不說，就說說新加坡吧！全職、兼職、玩票性質的都算的話，我想可能有幾千幾百位風水師。有的是拜師學藝或祖傳的，有的是在外上課程，然後就自己出來看。

這些你全部都已摸清他們的底細，來下此結論嗎？還是是道聽途說？

如果沒有真實查證，那就是在唬人，故意讓看過其他師父的客人，內心生起不安而來找你。

很大的口氣，很不道德的行銷法，來博名利雙收。

幾年前，有位女風水師寫貼文抹黑我。我的一位風水講座的出席者好心為我打抱不平，安慰我之餘，告訴我她的朋友認識那位風水師，而她的性傾向是......

我沒給她說完，便切斷她的話：「我們再講下去，就是在聊是非了。這不是我的作風。」

抹黑我和她喜歡誰是兩碼事。

抹黑我，來贏得臉書上的讚，是她人品的問題。我如果取笑她的性傾向，那就是我人格的問題。己所不欲，勿施於人，我沒有想要在背後傷害她，何必同流合污呢？

再說，喜歡誰，不影響我們的專業能力和志向。

只是說，一個會製造假象的風水師，客人是否還可以把自己和家人的命運交到她手中？

●

某位女讀者告訴我，她家人和馬國一位有名風水師的經歷。說著說著，她提到這位風水師不會說華文。字裡行間彷彿帶著取笑的味道。

我回她說，我不討論別人的是是非非。

這風水師能把中華玄學帶到全世界，讓洋人對我們華人文化刮目相看，也是美事一樁。再說，他的崛起也讓年輕的華人再度重視中華玄學。我們為何要去挑他的不足來興論一番？有何意義呢？口袋不會多一點錢，造了口業，自己的福報還會被扣給他，不值得。

我們風水命理師都必須精通八卦學，為的是去利益眾生，而不是把自己變成「八卦新聞台」，去娛樂大家。

套我大師姐以前常跟我說的一句話：「不要自己的餅乾做不好，而變成一個“笑餅”。」

外面已經有很多人看不起我們，不相信我們，甚至取笑我們是「無知識」、「搞神通」、「騙人錢」的江湖術士。如果我們風水師都在那兒，又是屠龍刀又是倚天劍又是降龍十八掌的自相殘殺，人家只是看笑話而已。不但贏不到客人，我們還終歸是最大的輸家。

無論是什麼學派的風水，追溯到底的話，大家『本是同根生』。

各位英雄豪傑，何不把精力用在教育大眾，以身試範如何做個上等人，以配得起一個上等命呢？

"More than 90% Feng Shui practitioners are doing the basics wrong!"

I saw this from website of a young Feng Shui entrepreneur, who just started to ply his trade.

My first thought was: is it necessary to trample over others and deceive others, for the sake of money?

Have you witnessed the abilities of all Feng Shui Masters from all over the world?

Let's not go too far, and just take Singapore for instance. If we include all the full-timers, part-timers and hobbyists, I think there are easily several hundreds, if not thousands, Feng Shui practitioners. Some of them studied under a Master for years, while some acquire the knowledge from their ancestors. And there are those who become consultants, after attending external courses.

Did you do a very thorough check on their skills, before drawing this conclusion? Or did you base your statement on hearsay?

If there is no verifiable truth and authentic checks, then you are just trying to bluff your way through. You deliberately stir up emotions of insecurity in people who have consulted other masters, so as to lure them to you.

What big words. What unethical way of marketing just to make yourself some money.

Few years ago, a lady Feng Shui practitioner wrote untruths about me on her FB. One workshop participant of mine felt unjust for me, and as she offered words of consolation to me, she mentioned that a friend of hers knew that Feng Shui practitioner whose sexual orientation was actually...

I did not let her finish her words, "If we continue talking about this, we would be engaging in gossip. That is not my style."

Smearing my name and who she likes are two different matters.

To defame me so as to win more FB Likes is a problem in her character. If I laugh at her sexual orientation with others so as to feel better, that becomes my morality problem. Do not do unto others what you do not wish for others to do to you. I have no intention to hurt her behind her back, so why should I wallow in the mire together?

Moreover, whoever we like does not have any influence on our professional capability and aspiration.

The only thing that matters: Is a Feng Shui practitioner who deliberately creates falsehoods deserving of clients' trust, for them to place their destinies and families in her hands?

●

One female reader told me about her family's experience with a well-known Feng Shui master. As the conversation progressed, she mentioned how this master was unable to speak Mandarin. There seemed to be a hidden veil of mockery in her words.

My reply to her: I do not gossip about others.

This Feng Shui Master brought Chinese Metaphysics to the whole world, allowing the Westerners to sit up and take notice of our Chinese culture. That is a good thing after all. Secondly, his emergence inspired the younger generation of Chinese to pay attention to Chinese Metaphysics once again. Why should we focus on his weak point and make a hooha about it? What meaning is there? Not like we will have more money in our pockets. Also when we commit sins in our speech by gossiping about him, we will cede our good fortune to him.

No way is it worth it.

●

As Chinese Metaphysics practitioners, we have to study the Bagua very well to be able to benefit sentient beings. Not study gossip and become an entertainment news station for the amusement of the masses.

There are already many outsiders who look down on us, disbelieve us and even laugh at us as conmen who are ignorant, promoting supernatural stuff and cheat others of money. If we continue to cut at one another's throats, these people will just be eating popcorn as they watch us.

Instead of winning over more clients, we will turn out to be the biggest losers.

No matter what school of Feng Shui we are from, if we trace all the way back to the origins, we are all born from the same root.

To all fellow heroes and comrades, why don't we focus our efforts in educating the masses? Lead by example and demonstrate to them how to be a first-class human worthy of a premium Destiny.

-If The Name Doesn't Match, Watch Out.-

A simple concept with a very important value. In karate we wear an "Obi", belt which often indicates our rank, it is where a karate-ka or practitioner of karate-do often indicates their name. There is an interesting exception to that however. Every once in a blue moon you see a karate-ka with a belt that doesn't match his name. Here is the reason behind it.

Sensei Andre Bertel has always been my hero, my inspiration, and a huge role model in my life. A champion with humility, dangerous yet graceful with the ability to kill in combat yet gives people life. He is an extreme powerhouse yet his understanding of the intricacies are outstanding.

The name on my belt reads " 恩道礼" translated as "Andre". This is because I have inherited my sensei, Andre Bertel's belt. I wear this with pride and I am humbled to be able to represent this art or Shotokan Karate-Do.

As I mature as an artist I start to understand the meaning behind the saying. "If The Name Doesn't Match, Watch Out." When one who has inherited his belt fights, he fights twice as hard because he represent his Sensei. He will never give up because his perseverance an dedication he carried on from his teacher. He moves with the drive and passion of a champion because he represents his hero.

Thank you Sensei for the hospitality this trip and for shaping me into who I am today. OSU!
