【不要只說「小心陌生人」】(English writing below)
DON'T JUST SAY "BEWARE OF STRANGERS"

保護孩子、培力兒童是大人的責任，不是嗎？可是很多父母都失職了。

兩年前，我寫過這篇文章《防狼之心不可無》：https://www.facebook.com/l.jiqian/posts/10155915660644614

我一貫的影片離不開佛法、風水命理和改命補運的題目。去年，因搬進風水更好的新家，我見的客人多了，收入也增長了一倍。當時，就在想：取之社會，用之社會，因此，就已策劃要拍些社會課題的影片。

為了這支影片，去年特別拉隊回到我童年的居住地區拍攝。第一次這樣的拍攝，收音方面沒做好，請您多多包涵。

孩子被熟人性侵，會造成孩子一輩子的陰影，其殺傷力比很多病毒來得更深、更痛。

蔑倫越理的邪淫，會種下未來無窮盡的禍根, 死後墮入畜牲道，百千劫難得人身，但依然有加害者執迷不悟，以為能一手遮天。

因此，身為父母和教育者，我們都有責任教導孩子正確的身體自主權，及如何拒絕和向可信任的大人求助。

三十多年前，我母親苦口婆心教導我多年，今天，我做這影片，適合大人小孩一同觀看。除了希望小孩子能學到自我保護的能力，我也期盼他們未來不會成為性暴力的加害者，將來還能幫助其他的孩子脫離被加害的困境。 ❤️

Empowering and protecting children are the responsibilities of adults, right? Yet, there are many parents who have failed in this aspect.

Two years ago, I wrote an article "What my mum taught me about wolves": https://www.facebook.com/l.jiqian/posts/10155915660644614

My usual videos revolve around the topics of Buddhism, Chinese Metaphysics, destiny transformation and luck improvement.

Last year, after moving into a new house of better Feng Shui, the number of clients I seen increased and my income doubled. At that time, I had this thought: what is taken from the people should be used in the interests of the people. Hence, I made plans to do videos on societal issues.

For this video, I went back to my childhood neighbourhood with the filming crew. This is my first time producing such a video, and I seek your tolerance for the lacklustre audio.

There are many illnesses that one can recover from, but a child who has suffered sexual abuse from a known person may never lead a healthy life again.

Immoral sexual misdeeds sow the seeds for endless misfortunes in one's future. Upon death, one will be hurled into the animal realm and be denied of the human form for hundreds and thousands of kalpas. Yet, sexual predators are persisting in their acts, naively thinking that they can get away with it.

As parents and educators, we have the responsibility to teach our children body safety skills, and how to reject sexual advances and seek help from trusted adults.

30 over years ago, my mum had taught me this painstakingly over many years. Today, I am paying forward by producing this video that is suitable for both the adults and children to watch.

I hope for more children to learn self-protection abilities, and that they will not become the sexual predators that we abhor. Who knows? Perhaps in the future, they may even help free other children from being sexual preys. ❤️

【賺良心錢 - 懺悔才免業來攻】

Meet 蓮花 Happy.

It was one of the rare times I engaged in a conversation with the cab driver.

As usual, I was under instruction to continue the conversation with the driver, after Shifu hopped off the cab.

I asked if he was born in XXX.

Slightly surprised, the driver asked how I knew.

I explained to him why he got into driving taxis for a living, and preferred to operate on a particular shift.

He peered at me through the rear view mirror, and exclaimed,

"You and the gentleman are Feng Shui masters?!"

"He is the Feng Shui master, I am his disciple, a Feng Shui practitioner."

I went on to mention about his affinity with dogs.

The driver paused, before saying, "You're right. I used to look after many dogs."

I was about to continue rattling, and then something struck me.

"Wait...many dogs? Do you mean you used to run a puppy mill?"

"Yes, about 3-4 years ago."

"Oh my goodness! Why did you do that? That is killing!"

"The opportunity came by at that time, and I thought, why not?"

"To have affinity with dogs is one thing. Based on your Bazi, your money isn't going to come from dogs. You got into the wrong industry. Even if your puppy mill was initially profitable, you would eventually run into a lot of problems and have difficulties operating the business. 這一點點錢賺得很辛苦。"

He nodded his head.

"Yes, the first 1-2 years were still okay. But along the way, problems and expenses just kept increasing. So I eventually closed it down."

"You shouldn't have gotten greedy in the first place. A puppy mill is inhumane. Dogs are forcefully kept captive in poor conditions to be money making machines. That is a sin in itself. Who likes to be locked up like that? When dogs or puppies die due to your negligence or put down due to illness, you are committing the sin of killing. Do you know how heavy the price to pay for killing is?"

"I have indeed caused a number of dogs to die at that time..."

"You're too naive and shortsighted. One consequence of killing is your children will either fall sick very often or be very hard to teach. No matter what you say or do, they do not listen to you."

"My children are okay, health wise. The first two are born before my puppy mill business. Only thing is my third child...he is extremely naughty and very hard to teach...We sometimes also don't know what to do with him."

Before getting off the cab, I asked for a piece of paper from him and wrote the short Mantra for Rebirth to Pureland:

往生淨土，超生出苦，
南無阿彌陀佛，
南無阿彌陀佛，
南無阿彌陀佛。

If he knows the full Rebirth to Pureland Mantra 《拔一切業障根本得生淨土陀羅尼》(commonly known as 往生咒), he can also recite that everyday 7, 21, 49 or 108 times.

Imagine the people who buy cute puppies from the taxi driver...

There are many adorable puppies who turned out to be sickly dogs like Happy, either with genetic skin issues, or due to poor breeding/a sickly mother dog that has overproduced. You know, things that only the vet tells you, but not the puppy seller.

I see more pet owners being poor caretakers than responsible ones.

Sometimes they do not have the time and patience.

When the dog outgrows its cuteness and becomes more susceptible to diseases, many owners would choose to put it down.

They find taking care of a temperamental and sickly dog expensive and tiring.

That is how the negative karma of puppy mill owners snowballs, for every puppy that is mistreated due to its poor breeding. They commit the sins of killing, lying to the consumers and stealing from the consumer.

There is an affinity reason why such a dog will end up in your family, and you having to foot its increasing medical bills. 前世怨親債主，這世來你家中住，祂慢慢討，你慢慢還。

If you make the decision to terminate its life prematurely, on the pretext of ending its suffering, it is still killing.

The dog has its own karmic reasons why it is infested with diseases.

If it finishes its run this lifetime naturally, that's one karmic consequence done and dealt with. And perhaps it will enjoy a better rebirth next life.

However, when you play God and cut short its illness suffering, this unpaid karmic debt will likely be carried forward to its next rebirth. The pet may also bear hatred towards you and its continued invisible presence will affect your family.

Same goes for people who commit suicide, because they do not wish to suffer from their illness anymore.

I hate to break this to you, but there's no such thing as doggy heaven. That is merely a term of self-solace and self-deception.

Dogs belong to the animal realm in the Six Realms of Reincarnation. In some cases, people who have been disloyal or unfaithful are reborn as dogs in the Animal Realm. Once banished into the Animal Realm, it is extremely hard for them to achieve the human form again.

If you believe in Buddhism, one way you can help your dog is let it take refuge in the Three Jewels.

Happy is a blind toy poodle born with genetic disorder. Its owners had spent about $10K on its surgery and other medical bills.

(Pet insurance is always a good idea...you never know what kind of dog you are getting...)

Its owner has helped it taken refuge in my Grandmaster Living Buddha Lian Sheng, 聖尊蓮生活佛 since it was a puppy.

When the pet takes refuge in Buddhism, a seed of Dharma is planted in its consciousness, and there will be a chance for it to hear the wondrous teachings of the Dharma. As it learns the teachings of the Buddha in subsequent rebirths, it will awaken its Buddha nature and veer towards the virtuous path.

Consistent repentance and accumulating merits is still key to helping Happy break out from the Animal Realm this lifetime and resolving the karmic debt between the owner and the puppy.

If the owner is devoted and diligent, let the love for your dog extend beyond superficial belly rubs and pats. Recite more mantras and/or sutras and dedicate to its next rebirth in a better realm. Reverse its tragic destiny of being born as animal that humans make use of as a money tree.

Also, for good Feng Shui, I don't recommend keeping dogs. I have seen how a client's business got pulled down when he decided, against my word, to keep dogs as pets.

Not every Bazi is suitable to live with dogs, cats, hamsters or fishes.

A home with an altar should not keep pets either, as the filth from pets will affect the energies of the altar.

As a Buddhist, a secular responsibility like this will rob you of precious time and life that you should have spent on your spiritual cultivation.

Don't casually buy pets as gifts. A dog lover does not always equal to a responsible caretaker.

If you aren't good at taking care of them, all the more you shouldn't have them, least you contribute to its death.

But if you already do, I do not recommend putting them down or throwing them to SPCA, in the name of good Feng Shui.

Nor should you chuck the heavy burden of pet care to your parents. It is already tough to repay the debt of gratitude to our parents. This will just compound the debt of interest payable and take a toil on our parents, especially when certain breeds are more needy in nature.

Responsibility is still important, after all, to you, it is just a pet. But to the pet, you are its whole world. #護生

Resolve the debt of karma this lifetime. Don't let it escalate to another unimaginable debt of enemity next lifetime.
