琉璃心The Mindful Heart /Mindfulness Meditation

The Mindful Heart — Season 6, Episode 10Illuminating the Lotus SutraThis episode reflects on a verse spoken by , questioning :> Why does the Guiding Teacher> Emit a great light from the white curl between His brows, illuminating all?> Heavenly flowers fall,> Fragrant sandalwood winds arise,> Delighting every heart.> The earth becomes pure and adorned,> The world trembles in six ways,> And all beings rejoice—> Body and mind at ease,> Experiencing what has never been experienced before.---------------------------------------------------------------Mindfulness ReflectionThis is not a story about miracles.It is a map of the mind.The “light” is awareness.The “flowers and fragrance” are what the present moment feels likewhen resistance softens.The “trembling” is the loosening of what we thought was fixed.And the “joy” is not excitement—but release.Take one minute today:Pause.Breathe.Notice what you are holding onto.Then ask—What happens if I don’t hold it so tightly?That shift…is already the beginning of clarity.---------------------------------------------------------------Support and Comment： https://mindful.firstory.io/join：Powered by Firstory Hosting

琉璃心第三季第128集念起無處，心本清明「阿難！汝常意中所緣善惡無記三性，生成法則……意與法，二俱虛妄。」我們每天所經歷的一切喜歡、不喜歡、說不清的情緒，看似真實，其實只是心中生起的影像。楞嚴經只是靜靜地問：念頭，在心內？還是在心外？若在心內，你怎能看見它？若在心外，它又是什麼形狀？走到最後，只剩下一個答案：念，無處可住。但我們卻煩惱、執著、流轉。這一集，不談深奧，只做一件事：把心，帶回來。正念練習當一個念頭升起時，請不要急著跟隨，輕輕對自己說：「正在看到一個念頭。」再問自己：它在哪裡？有形狀嗎？抓得住嗎？不用回答，只需看著它來，看著它去。會慢慢發現那些不安的，其實沒有想像的重量。05/10-07/31竹溪書院的畫展，只是想讓一個人，在畫前停下來的那一刻，不再追逐念頭，而是回到那一念清明。畫，是靜的；心，也可以。若剛好走過，祈願來看見自己的心。支持節目： https://mindful.firstory.io/joinPowered by Firstory Hosting

The Mindful Heart Podcast- Season 6, Episode 9The Lotus Sutra andLearning to See the Light WithinThere is a moment in the Lotus Sutra where the entire assembly-monastics, lay practitioners, devas, dragons, and unseen beings-witnesses a vast light radiating from the Buddha, illuminating countless worlds. And yet, instead of certainty, a question arises:“What is this? And who can we ask?”Even Maitreya Bodhisattva does not rush to answer. He pauses. He observes the minds of the whole assembly. And then, he turns to Manjushri Bodhisattva the embodiment of wisdom and asks:“By what causes and conditions does this light appear, illuminating so many worlds in their full clarity?”This episode is not about supernatural light.It is about something far more precise:the moment awareness begins.In today’s mindfulness practice, we don’t try to interpret the sutra-we use it.We observe three things:1.The question2.The light3.The adornment - seeing without judgmentWhen a thought arises, instead of following it, we pause and ask:Where did this come from?This is the practice.On this sacred day, we also honor the birthday of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva.Samantabhadra represents the unity of wisdom and action-the perfect integration of understanding and practiceand embodies the great vows that guide all beings toward awakening. Often regarded as the source of all Buddhas’ vows and conduct, his path reminds us:Insight alone is not enough.Clarity must become action.To see clearly is wisdom.To live it, moment by moment, is the vow.The Buddha’s light is not something distant.It is the moment you notice a thought before it becomes a story.It is the space where awareness expands beyond habit.Take 15 minutes today.Sit. Breathe. Observe.And you may begin to seewhat the sutra has been pointing to all along.Powered by Firstory Hosting

琉璃心 第三季第127集楞嚴經 與 正念減痛觸不可得，痛亦如是阿難！汝常晨朝以手摩頭。于意云何？此摩所知，誰為能觸？佛陀沒有否定「觸」，而是輕輕地問：這個「感覺」，從哪裡來？在手？在頭？在身體？還是在「我」？一層一層看下去，才會發現：找不到一個固定的「能觸」，也找不到一個真正的「我在感覺」。於是佛陀說：覺觸與身，俱無處所。即身與觸，二俱虛妄。不是沒有痛，而是我們把痛，抓得太緊。當身體不舒服時，我們習慣說：「我很痛。」但在正念裡，可以慢慢學著這樣看：不是「我在痛」，而是「痛的感覺，正在發生」。這一念的轉變，很微小，卻是解開痛苦的關鍵。試著在下一次疼痛來時，不要急著抗拒，也不要急著壓下。輕輕地觀察：它在哪裡？它會不會變？它有沒有一個固定的中心？你會發現它像一陣風，來來去去；像水面的波紋，起起落落。當不再緊抓「這是我的痛」，痛，開始鬆動。正念教我們：不要把暫時的感覺，當成真實不變的自己。願我們在每一次不舒服之中，多一分覺察，少一分執取。痛或許還在，但心，可以不再受困。支持節目： https://mindful.firstory.io/join留言告訴我你對這一集的想法：Powered by Firstory Hosting
