【有智慧就有希望】

在新冠肺炎疫情嚴重的歐洲國家意大利，醫護病房及人手均供不應求。於是建築師Carlo Ratti及Italo Rota聯同一眾專業人士成立了── CURA （Connected Units for Respiratory Ailments， cura同時亦是拉丁文中治療 / 治癒的意思），團隊目標希望把貨櫃轉化為緊急病房。這種貨櫃病房十分靈活、低成本及輕易運輸，可快速在醫院附近的空間如停車場等組裝應急，貨櫃之間又可用充氣走廊接駁，按需要增減病房數量及改變形狀。

現時，米蘭正加緊投入建造及試驗這類貨櫃病房。由於是項計劃是一個共享開放（Open Source）的設計及研發項目，歡迎不同人士參與及改良設計，亦希望這項聰明的設計不單能幫到意大利，還能惠及整個與疫情搏鬥的世界。

《米桶發財法》(English version below)
STRIKING RICH WITH THE RICE BIN

年少時，吾突然意思到，吾的身段似乎「過於苗條」了，是時候讓它「蓬勃發展」。一來，能保護身邊的人，二來，在整體上，較爲健康，較爲好看些。於是，吾在食量上加倍，向同班同學借來一對九公斤重的啞鈴，勤做仰臥起坐、伏地挺身，以及使用其他運動器材。這些是吾室內強身健體的部份。至於室外的部份，較常較多的當屬游泳了。當年吾最喜用蛙式與蝶式，且每一次來回，喜「上岸」做仰臥起坐，及伏地挺身。吾不敢說吾的身材有多好多好，可確實有男女稱讚過，也起碼沒有多餘的贅肉。

除了室內室外的強身健體以外，吾還有一種獨特增強體魄的方法，那就是扛米。是的，妳你們沒聽錯，吾也沒搞錯。家父是位智慧型的嚴父，對他真的是又敬又怕。有一天吾鼓起勇氣，向他說吾想去幫家裡買米，他卻微笑的應允。這也是吾降生娑婆世間，首次體驗十公斤重，左右手各扛五公斤米的滋味。再加上那段路段來回，彷彿心中有首非常著名的詩在吟著，那即是：

鋤禾日當午，
汗滴禾下土。
誰知盤中餐，
粒粒皆辛苦。（一笑）

這種滋味實在是有夠勁！回到家時，家父依然微笑以對。雖然這初次買米的覺受，既新鮮又「夠勁」，吾並沒有退縮的心念，吾認爲這是很好的回報機會，也確實達於強健體魄。

吾，玳瑚師父，忠心祝願大家智慧增長，能辨別真偽，破除邪說歪道，無有恐怖，無顛倒妄想，快樂自在，究竟離苦。好些著重於外表的人，爲了擁有曼妙的身段，得以達於人衣合一的境界，（一笑）破釜沉舟式「棄米投美」，尤其是女有情眾。事實是她們不懂米，對於人體的益處。米是含著天上的甘露，地中的靈氣而生，是人類生存能量重要的來源。它可用來解毒、除煞、化煞、開光、治病、美容、護膚等等。很多女性瘦身減肥後，成功後身體卻有恙，原因雖有幾個，但不離因沒食米飯。潮州多出美女是事實，潮州美女的特徵在鳳眼膚白。爲什麼？因爲潮州人多以粥，及清蒸食物爲飲食習慣。米所含之豐富礦物質，乃人體所需重要礦物質。

米的種類有多種，一般我們較常看見的有，珍珠米、印度米、泰國香米、糙米、糯米，等等。這些米種皆有它們各自所屬之五行。若妳你確實清楚，妳你本身所需之喜用神，妳你可以選購旺妳你的米種，天天食之天天旺。這招本是發財的第一步，如此簡單如此實惠，可憐愚夫愚婦迷信不通，花巨額亂搞瞎搞的，搞了精疲力盡，始終搞慘自己及家人。如今吾，玳瑚師父，憐憫眾生而傳授此法，願得者利己亦利她他，多積陰德才好。買對了米，就將米用木質米桶裝起，再貼上一個滿字於米桶外。這是發財第二招。若妳你想將米桶置於櫥櫃的外上方，就請妳你將米桶隔離窗口，較聚氣處爲好。這是發財第三招。米桶發財法，人人能做，家家戶戶能做。豐衣足食的日子，已不遠啦！

When I was still a youth, one day, I suddenly realized that I was perhaps too thin and it was time to beef up my physique. Firstly, I would be able to protect the people around me, and also look better and healthier on the whole. Thus, I increased my food intake, borrowed a pair of 9kg dumbbells from my classmate, diligently did push-ups and sit-ups, as well as used other exercising equipment. These were my indoor exercises. As for my outdoor activities, I mostly and frequently did swimming. My favorite strokes in the pool then were breast-stroke and the butterfly stroke. After every lap, I liked to get onto dry land and do sit-ups and push-ups. I dare not say how great my body was, however I did received praises from other men and women. At the very least, I did not have excess fat hanging off me.

Besides those indoor and outdoor body-building activities, I also had a special training method: carry rice sacks. Yes, you heard it correct. My father was an intelligent but strict disciplinarian, and I was often afraid yet in awe of him. One day, I summoned my courage and told him that I would like to help buy rice for the household. He agreed with a slight smile. Ever since my birth into this Samsara world, this was my first time experiencing the weight of lifting 10kg rice, with my left and right hands carrying 5kg respectively. Coupled with the journey to and fro, a famous Chinese poem seemed to sing from my heart:

Neath the midday sun he hoes his crops
His sweat moistens the soil between the stalks
Of food on the table who recalls
Each grain is produced through bitter toil

This experience was indeed something! As I got home, my dad still greeted me with a slight smile. Although my first experience of buying rice was refreshing and tough, I did not have any thought of backing off. I considered it as a good opportunity to repay my parents, and to strengthen my physique at the same time.

Master Dai Hu sincerely wish that everyone would gain wisdom and discern the true from the false, destroy evil speech and dishonest practices, not have fear and deranged delusions, have bliss and freedom and finally leave the realm of sufferings. There are many people who place a huge self-importance on their physical appearance. To have a graceful figure so as to reach the level of being one with their clothing, (laughs), they would burn their boats and forsake eating rice, all in the name of beauty. This is especially common among the ladies. The fact is that these ladies do not understand the benefits of eating rice for the human body.

The rice grain is birthed from the dew of Heaven and the spiritual qi of earth. It is an important source of survival energy for humans. It can serve as an antidote to poison, for removal and transformation of vile energies, consecration, curing of illnesses, beauty care, skincare, etc. After losing weight successfully, many ladies get stricken with ailments. Although there are several reasons to this, it is not far from not consuming rice. The city of Chao Zhou is famed for producing beauties, renowned for their distinctive elegant and almond-shaped eyes and porcelain skins. Why is that so? Because rice porridge and steamed food are staple foods of the people in Chao Zhou. The rice minerals prevalent in rice are vital minerals that the human body needs.

There are numerous types of rice, with the commonly seen grains like the pearl rice, Indian basmati rice, the Thai jasmine rice, brown rice, glutinous rice, etc. These various grains each have their own elemental types. If you are very clear about your favourable elements in your Bazi, you can purchase the suitable grain type, to gain prosperity everyday through your daily consumption. This is the first technique to striking great wealth. It is simple yet brings practical benefits. I pity the misbelieving men and women, who spent huge money only to act ignorantly, get drained of energy, and at the end, brought nothing but trouble to themselves and their families.

Today, I, Master Dai Hu, impart this method out of compassion for the sentient beings, and hope that those who benefits pay it forward to accumulate more hidden merits. After purchasing the right type of grains, store it in a wooden rice bin, and paste a paper, with the Chinese character "滿" written on it, onto the bin exterior. This is the second technique to more riches.

If you wish to place the rice bin on top of a cabinet, please place it away from the window, even better if it is at a spot that can accumulate Qi. This is the third step to greater wealth. This method of striking riches with your rice bin is applicable for everyone and every household. Get ready to welcome the days of great harvest and rice clothing!

【玳瑚師父玄學論】 「運」從口入
Eat Your Way to Good Fortune (English version below)

你妳們是否有注意到？坊間的診所是越來越多間。大醫院也不祇是我們所知的那幾間如: 中央醫院、亞歷山大醫院、國大醫院、萊佛士醫院．．．．．．據吾所知，有一間新的醫院就儜立在義順一帶。或許人們心中會暗道: 真的有必要或需要嗎？有沒有必要或需要，"肉眼"目前是看不出端倪來。但是，有一點是較明朗的。那就是，國人的健康已到達了"不健康水平"。

「病從口入」這句話，大家都早有所聞。可是大家卻常常不慎飲食，最終還是「病從口入」。你妳可知道？長久下來，連壽命都會被影響喔！一切的計畫及規劃，如組織家庭、生兒育女、創業、深造、追女仔追男仔，等等，都變為"石沈大海"。甚麼意思？沒了，甚麼都沒了。哈！哈！哈！留得青山在，才會有柴燒啊！

每種食物都有其所屬的五行。每一種病也同樣有其所屬的五行。茹葷茹素，其實也是命中五行之所需。常言道： 健康來自於均勻飲食。這句話是沒錯，但祇說對了一半。真正要達到健康，除非你妳懂得，命中所需之用神，再配合「武動生命」。

吾所謂命中之用神，是指排開生辰四柱，補以所缺之五行，就是你妳命中之用神也。舉個例子; 倘若你妳是生於冬天之人，最好別食生冷食物、別吃太多雪糕、冰棒、冬粉、果凍，等等。其實所有婦女小姐們，本來就不應該食太多生冷食物，如;生魚片、白木耳、白菜、鹹菜、冬菜、燕窩、雪蛤、西瓜、椰子，等等。不說妳們不知道，這些生冷食物乃是婦女病的"罪歸禍手"，千萬不可掉以輕心、任意亂食啊！吾再次的披露這秘密，乃吾一向關注婦女病。

要將「病」從口入轉化為「運」從口入，當中是有很深的學問的，容有緣再傳授。

Have you noticed that there are more clinics and medical centres nowadays? The major hospitals, are no longer the familiar ones like Singapore General Hospital, Alexandra Hospital, National University Hospital and Raffles Hospital. There is a new one being built in Yishun just not too long ago. Perhaps we may think if it is necessary to have so many medical facilities. Well, our naked eyes probably cannot discern if this many hospitals are required. But one thing for sure, the health of Singaporeans has deteriorated to a unhealthy level.

I am sure you have heard of the Chinese phrase "Illness goes in via your mouth". But alas, many of us are still careless in our choice of food, ultimately bringing various diseases into our body. Are you aware that if this continues, it will affect your longevity? All that you have planned, your family, career, further studies, romance etc, will be like a rock sinking into the ocean. All vanished and gone! Ha! Ha! Ha! It is better to keep the forests in order to have the wood for fuel! With life all gone, what hope would there be?

Every kind of food has its own elemental type. The same goes for the different type of ailments. Whether you are suitable to be a vegetarian or not also depends on the elements in your birth chart. Many say having a balanced diet will lead to a healthy life. That is only half correct. In actual fact, one needs to know what your favorable elements are according to your birth chart, coupled with adding exercise to your lifestyle.

To know what elements are needed for your health, we first need to lay out your birth chart and find out what is lacking. For example, if your are born in winter, refrain from cold or raw food like ice cream and popsicles, vermicelli, jelly, etc.

Actually for the ladies, you ought to abstain from excessive cold, raw and cooling food like sashimi, white fungus, cabbage, salted and preserved vegetables, bird's nest, hashima, watermelon, coconut etc. Perhaps you are not aware if I did not divulge, but the above food are the top causes of many female ailments. Please be on your guard and not eat willfully. I share this information again as I am always concerned about female health issues.

To turn the tide and eat your way to good fortune instead of illnesses, there is a deep vault of knowledge which I will transmit should the affinity arises in the future.
