ideas.....

this morning,
i open the dvd of Rev. Hui Lu's talk
hear it for 2 hours...
from start until end i onli watch rev hui lu keep preaching...
but the effect, i feel wonderful than watching a movie of that length of time..
reli so wonderful...
many things i can learn...
the happiness after hearing d talk gives me ohm...
haha...

one of the point which he brings out is
actually many things thing in this world are just our idea which served for convenience purpose only...
for example, the time..


because of our earth are spinning and revolving around the sun..
so we will have half of the earth in the bright side while the other side is on the dark side...
so we called the bright side as the day
and the dark side as the night
when we have day n night,
we can develope time based on that...
these is juz the idea for convenience purpose..
these are not real things..
when we are out of this earth and go to outer space,
there are no day and night...
so how do we determine the time there???
impossible to use the time we used in earth when we at there....
so where gone the time??

these is when Rev. Hui lu trying to explain what means 'emptiness'
'emptiness'...
for example, a cup...
we cant say that it does not exist
we oso cant say that it is a real and permanent thing,
in 'emptiness', it is a form which appear from the combination of many things..
as it is a combination...
when it born, it will surely die...
die means the separation of its combination..
then he got explain about the difference between lay people and sage...
both have the same very expensive and beautiful cup...
one day,
for the lay people,
he accidentally dropped and his cup broken...
his first reaction is about his expensive cup has broken and his heart is juz like being slashed by parang...
then he think about his money flew away..
felt very sad, very angry...

but for sage, those who fully understand the 'emptiness'
when his cup fell down and broken...
his first reaction is
ah...
impermanence..
the time of the separation of combination for this cup has reach...
His heart will not pulled away from this fenomena...
he will juz watch
understand wat is happening
then let the fenomena go...
very calm...
juz like the surface of lake water...

k la..
tonite sharing until here la..
sometimes watch reverend talks better than watching movie..
many things can learn...
haha
