《悄然改變的臉》
The Face That Changes Quietly (English version below)
依稀記得，有首歌是這樣唱的：妳你看，妳你看，月亮的臉偷偷地在改變，月亮的臉偷偷地在改變。其實啊！改變的並不是月亮，而是人的心。有一則禪宗公案，是這樣的。有位禪師與其弟子在室外，禪師突然問其弟子：你仰頭看見什麼？其弟子仰了頭看了一下，回曰：有雲幾朵。禪師接著問：那雲在做什麼？其弟子回曰：雲在飄動。禪師聞後，就朝其弟子頭上棒打一下。這弟子痛得呱呱叫，一臉茫然地不知錯在何處。接著禪師又問其弟子，那現在雲還在飄動嗎？其弟子胸有成竹地回曰，現在雲已飄過。哪知依然逃不過，其師父犀利的棒打。哈！哈！哈！
上段引述了禪宗公案，是要教導大家不可隨境轉。凡是隨境轉的，就是迷者，迷者就是凡夫，就是俗子凡夫。俗子就會有苦惱，有苦惱自然就不會常樂我淨。相由心生，想要有張美麗、和悅、莊嚴的面貌，但看妳你自個的心，是否有真善。不祇要有真善哦！真善還得加上善念相繼哦！吾可以跟妳你打包票，妳你若真實的，依吾所教的行持下去，不久的將來，必會有人「難以抗拒妳你容顏」的。
吾，玳瑚師父，發現所有來見吾的客人，或是吾的門生及學生，在約一小時內，臉上的氣色，會由暗轉為亮，甚至還紅潤哦！而這發現已多年矣。近期有位「大媽」跟吾學佛，吾就向她提及，凡是接近吾的人，臉上的氣色，會越來越好看一事，她事前當然不置可否。于是，吾就請她做個試驗。這試驗是請她來見吾之前，先用鏡子打量自己一番，然後在與吾見面後的約一小時左右，再重新打量自己的氣色，跟著吾就立刻問她是否滿意與吾見了面的氣色？她回回滿意。事實上，在她之後，吾還有在做「臨牀實驗」。
至於未有因緣接近吾的眾生，吾在此傳授妳你，一個非常簡單加有效的方法，改善妳你容顏。這簡單的方法就是，每天多唸佛號，如南無阿彌陀佛、南無本師釋迦牟尼佛、南無觀世音菩薩、南無地藏王菩薩，等等。天天虔心恭敬地唸，但不可在臥房，不可在牀上唸，端坐蒲團，端坐椅上合掌地唸。當有一天，妳你偶然打量自己於境上時，妳你會非常歡喜境中的妳你，因妳你的臉，已悄然的改變。

I vaguely remembered the lyrics of a Chinese song that go something like this, "The face of the moon is secretly changing, the face of the moon is secretly changing." Fact is, the face of the moon is not changing, it is the heart of man that changes. There is this Zen koan that goes like this: A Zen Master was with his disciple outdoors when the Master suddenly asked his disciple, "What do you see when you raise your head?"
"Just a few clouds", the disciple replied after looking upwards.
"What are the clouds doing?", the Master continued.
"The clouds are floating", came the answer.
Upon hearing it, the Master knocked on the disciple's head with a stick, and had him withering in pain, wondering what he did wrong.
"Are the clouds still floating?", the Master went on to ask.
This disciple replied confidently that the clouds had passed. But he still could not escape the stick beating from his Master! Ha ha ha!
The above koan tells us not to allow our mind to be influenced by our surroundings. Those who fall into this trap are yet to be awaken, and still a mortal being. A mortal will experience afflictions, and can never enjoy pure bliss.
All things with form stems from the heart. If you always wish for a beautiful,amiable and regal-looking face, look deep into your heart to see if you are truly kind. And it must be thoughts of kindness in every moment. If you follow my teachings 100% consistently, I can guarantee that in the near future, you will have a face which others will find it hard to resist.
I discovered that those who came to see me, be it my clients or my students, experienced a marked improvement in their facial aura within an hour of being with me. The aura changes from dim to radiant, with rosiness. I had realised this situation many years ago.
In recent months, a middle-aged mother was learning the Dharma from me and I told her about this phenomenon. She did not fully believe me, thus I invited her to do an experiment.
That is, every time before she meets me, she shall go and have a good look at her face in the mirror. She will repeat the same action after an hour or so after being with me. I would ask her if she is satisfied with her facial aura after seeing me. It is a resounding yes every single time. I did more of such experiments with others before her as well.
For those sentient beings with whom I have yet to have the affinity, allow me to impart a very easy and effective technique to improve your looks. This simple method is to recite the Buddha's name every day, like Namo Amithaba, Namo Shakyamuni Buddha, Namo Guan Shi Yin Pu Sa ( Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva ), Namo Di Zang Wang Pu Sa ( Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva) , etc. Recite it with full sincerity and respect. Do not do it in your bedroom or on your bed. Sit upright on a meditation cushion or a chair with both your palms together. One fine day, when you chance upon your reflection in the mirror, you will like what you see, because your face has been quietly changing all these while.
