放鬆全身
覺照全身
因放鬆與覺照全身
心不受任何狀況所擾
那即是默照的初步工夫
默照的方法就是這麼簡單
摘自《默照話頭》
——-
默照依大我而無我
默照從心統一而心與身統一
而內與外統一
對外擴大覺照此統一乃大我
再空去此大我之一心
即是空無我的無心而開悟
摘自《又再出頭》
——-
在默照中
沒有能照的主體
也沒有所照的客塵
一切只是相對的存在
能所只是相對中不同的位置
因此心在照時
因見此平等性而默然
更因見此相對的互依互存
而實際沒有真實的能所
也沒有真實的存在
故見空而開悟
摘自《默照話頭》

修行的方法
若以一句話總括
那就是放鬆
只要能放鬆
一切修行方法都用得上
從生活中的調和
到基礎方法的應用
到深入定和慧的修持
乃至度眾生的慈悲與方便
莫不都是在放鬆
從基本的身心放鬆
到極致的放鬆
自己解脫而他人受益
因此在修行時
時時處處
心念都安往於放鬆
任放鬆來完成其過程
摘自《默照源頭》

打坐是誰
打坐是打坐
沒有能打坐的人
也沒有所打坐的境
只有打坐的因緣
整體的存在
又一直在流動著
如此只管打坐
即是默照同時
能所雙泯的悟境
摘自《有啥看頭》
——-
心本具默照功能
無限向外開放
與無限融合為一
在此統一境中
見一切境一切法
遷流不息剎那生滅
無有實體無有自性
一切因緣歷歷存在
無一主體能覺能知
能覺能知因所覺所知
相對互動而相互存在
故無能無所能所雙泯
空無自性空無我所
見無我而見性成佛
摘自《默照話頭》
——-
默然安住
覺照整體
能所統一
照見無我
緣生緣滅
無住生心
一切本然
任運自然
摘自《話説從頭》
———
禪是活的
禪的修行也是活的
清楚地覺照當下因緣
整體因緣的原則
無常無我空
故心心默然不受一切相的影響
卻仍然隨著因緣的變化而流動
禪的修行活了
襌就活了
心就自在了
摘自《又再出頭》
———-
只管打坐
打坐時是整個身心在打坐
而身心是無常的
就是流動著的
也是無我的
就是沒有實體的
所以是空的
因此打坐是安住而又流動的
是有相而非實體的
但又是一個整體
身心在打坐的當下
即是如此
只要心一有別的念即失去了整體
即不是只管打坐了所以打坐就是打坐
摘自《回到話頭》
——-
只管打坐
只是打坐
全身打坐
全心打坐
打坐在打坐 打坐即打坐
身心在打坐 身心即打坐
摘自《回到話頭》
———-
默照不二心本具
默而不照陷無記
照中無默隨念去
默照同時心統一
能所雙泯見空性
無默無照任運行
摘自《默照話頭》
——
心本具默照功能
無限向外開放
與無限融合為一
在此統一境中見
一切境一切法
遷流不息剎那生滅
無有實體無有自性
一切因緣歷歷存在
無一主體能覺能知
能覺能知因所覺所知
相對互動而相互存在
故無能無所能所雙泯
空無自性空無我所
見無我而見性成佛
摘自《默照話頭》
——-
默照一切境
皆與心統一
能所既統一
默照統一境
安住統一境
見因緣生滅
能所相依存
非實自性空
不見心主體
不見境客塵
能所相泯除
無我得自在
摘自《默照話頭》
——-
只管打坐
默然不動
放任六根
自然融入
默照統一
無能無所
悟後默照
無緣大慈
平等覺照
身心統一
諸境觸根
內外統一
緣生緣滅
見性開悟
無內無外
同體大悲
摘自《何處盡頭》
——-
慈悲原本就是雙向的
慈悲必然是互動的
只有不真正了解的人
才會以為只對自己好就好了
卻不知真正懂得對自己好
自然就得對他人好
對他人好
自己自然就會好
於是真正懂得慈悲
真實實施慈悲
必定一切人
都好都快樂都沒煩惱
摘自《提起話頭》

    Thanks for sharing Yin Ling.
    Let me tell you the story of how I found out about Ven Chi Chern. As I said before, in Chinese it is very difficult to find masters and teachers who has this realisation of anatta and emptiness. Super rare.
    I was in Kinokuniya less than two years ago. After going through all the shelves and not finding any books that resonate, the store announced it is closing in 15 minutes and I thought "what a waste of my trip here, cannot find good books", so I prayed sincerely to Guan Yin (I seldom bother Guan Yin with such prayers haha but based on my experience with Guan Yin it's really 有求必应 （all your wishes will come true) when my prayers come from sincerity and compassion, but of course you can't wish for unreasonable things out of greed like instant win toto or immortality, please don't turn Buddhism into superstition - also see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkEN2k1EAKw) that I may find a good dharma book in Chinese that I can pass my mother. Almost immediately an intuitive awareness led me to the correct shelf, and I reached out and took out this book. I flipped, and realised, wow... he is definitely realised. And he went through the same phases of realisations - I AM to one mind to anatta (and emptiness). I told John Tan on whatsapp when I found that book, I immediately took pictures (see below) of its contents and sent him on WhatsApp.

      Yo, we gotta capitalize on this. Could you ask Guan Yin what the code to my old computer is? Thanks ✌🏻


      Soh Wei Yu
      Once I went to some place, I swear I have no idea what the wifi password but the phone connection is really bad and I really had to answer some dharma questions online (lol) so I tried connecting to that place's wifi, I prayed and a number entered vividly into my mind almost instantly and it was not something simple straightfoward like 12345, I enter it as the wifi password, and it freaking worked. First try. Either some bodhisattva or dharmapala gave me some hints or I have some untapped siddhis (I doubt so) that gets activated when dharma needs to be posted, or it's just another huge coincidence (possible). I was not in a jhana state either so that's almost certainly not the case. I did wonder if I ever went there before and enter that password before so it's in the back of my mind somehow, but I was pretty sure I didn't after trying hard to recall. Don't ask me what place or what the password was though lol
      Another time -- suddenly four numbers vividly entered into my mind. This never happened before. I couldn't remember if I was praying before that or not. This is the only time ever that I ever buy 4D or four digit numbers on my own (unless on super rare occasions someone else ask me if I want to buy one and he/she helps me buy). Results: almost won 2nd prize, missed by one number. I take it that either some bodhisattva or dharmapala is teasing me for my greed. Could be a huge coincidence though.
      Once my dad's friend lost his code / recovery password to his crypto wallet. Had a hugeee sum of cryptos... maybe less than a million dollars worth, but still, huge. The funny thing is he lost like 4 or 5 words out of the 15 word recovery phrase, he copied it on pen from his phone and deleted the original screenshot. I told him this means bruteforce will take years (it could take only 2 days if he had one more correct word). That person then meditated (he also happened to be a Buddhist who meditates), and one day maybe a week after we met, he had a strong sudden intuition during his meditation that he will soon recover all the money. He went to search his whole house again and found a small slip of paper where he wrote down all the 15 words. He passed the paper to me, but I kept trying for 1 or 2 hours and still couldn't work, about to give up. Then I think I made a prayer... and an intuitive awareness arose that some of the letters in the middle of the paper which he clearly wrote in small letters were supposed to be in capital letters (or the reverse, cant remember). I changed them, and it worked. Money recovered.
      Maybe you should try asking yourself lol


      • Stian Gudmundsen Høiland
      I already tried asking myself and all I got was "Why are you talking to myself?" Confusing, I know.


      • Stian Gudmundsen Høiland
      Interesting stories. Intuition gets really vivid and clear in a purified mind, is my experience, too. But not something as specific as prophetic sequences of digits and characters. Yet.


      • Yin Ling
      Wow.
      I only remember once I feel some divine intervention happen. I rem when I first move to KL , I smartly lock my own phone in my own house and forgot the password ( a digital lock) to my own house 🤦🏻‍♀️so I wanted to drive to my brothers place to get spare key and I got lost. It was very late, my petrol turning red, I drove for 40 mins getting lost and further away from kl, total lost🤣
      Then I prayed to Guan yin.. to get me home. Too late too dangerous no phone no cash no petrol
      So I just simply follow Intuition ; simply drive and I reach my brothers in probably 30’mins smoothly. Petrol almost finish 🤦🏻‍♀️
      I don’t remember roads without google maps so it is truly a miracle for myself lol


      • Soh Wei Yu
      Yin Ling Sometimes divine intervention happen like your fire incident... dharmapalas must be protecting 🙂


      • Soh Wei Yu
      *happen even without prayers


      • Yin Ling
      Soh Wei Yu yeah the fire incident also very miraculous coz I sleep like a dead lol
      Blink and wake up. Zero dreams that kind. Lol


      • Soh Wei Yu
      Update: not crypto recovery words but private keys. My dad's friend could recover by private key (which is caps sensitive and made of random letters and numbers and each letter could be caps or small letters, its truly random) or recovery words but he lost 4 or 5 of the recovery words and only found the private keys much later on
