【你從不知道的靈異世界 竟然如此不可思議！】
Books recommendation: The Inexplicable World of Spirits That You Are Clueless About

半夜12點來談，你不知道的不可思議的靈異世界。

我們活在靈的世界裡面，卻對此世界的浩瀚一無所知，就會很容易被我們極有限的感官所蒙蔽，自以為是的認為科學才是真理。

問題是，真正能夠通陰陽鬼神，願意把靈異世界的真相寫出來的人少之又少。為什麼？

小小的我出道這些年來，弘揚佛法和傳達玄學的知識，遭到的欺壓、污衊、霸凌和辱罵卻從來沒有少過。只要站出來，逆著普羅大眾的方向走，就容易被有心人士拿來當箭靶，旁人無知，一犬吠形，百犬吠聲。

那種艱辛和苦，只有經歷過的人才能體會。這使我更加讚嘆我根本上師，聖尊蓮生活佛，這四十年來度眾的道心、毅力和膽識。祂，是我學習的對象。就算面對重重的惡勢力，祂依然勇敢的選擇揭露靈異的神秘面紗，讓我們芸芸眾生能擁有正信，不再迷惘，進而「諸惡莫作，眾善奉行」。

這也是為何我們學佛人，必須非常尊敬的請法，及感恩傳我們法的大善知識，因為很多時候，他們真的是用生命來換得正法的灌頂，恆持的弘法度眾，而我們輕輕一問，便能易如反掌的得到佛慧。若我們不慎重，發心不純，會種下落入三惡道的因，在黑暗的境界裡，永世再也聽不到真實的佛法，從痛苦中解脫。

雖然這四本書是盧師尊大約24年前的著作，在2021年讀還是那麼震撼人心，可見社會雖文明進步，也只是個假象，因為大部份人的心靈並沒有昇華，依舊在黑暗裡打滾。我推薦我根本上師，聖尊蓮生活佛，這四本靈書：
1）《靈異的真面目》
2）《神變的遊歷》
3）《不可思議的靈異》
4）《走入最隱秘的陰陽界》（有英文版）

祝 開卷有益。
______________________________

This midnight, let's talk about the incredible world of spirits that you do not know about.

We live in a world of spirits, yet most of us are largely ignorant about the vast expanse of this world. We become blinded by our very limited sensory perceptions and arrogantly presumed that only science is the real deal.

Problem is, only a rare few can transverse the world of Yin and Yang, ghosts and gods. Even fewer are willing to reveal the truth through writings. Why so?

I am just an insignificant person. Yet since my debut a few years ago, I have had my fair share of oppression, cyberbullying, smearing and insults. Any person, who puts him/herself in the public eye yet walks against the general direction of the masses, is bound to be an easy target for personal attacks by people with vile intentions. Uninformed bystanders are also likely to follow the crowd.

Such pain and hardship can only be understood by those who went through it. Ever since this, I grew more respect for my Grandmaster, Living Buddha Lian-Sheng. He is my role model. The faith, tenacity and courage He demonstrated in delivering sentient beings for the past 40 years are worthy of applause.

Despite facing vicious forces again and again, He boldly chose to reveal the mysterious truth behind the world of spirits, for us to have the right knowledge, and no longer be lost. Only then we can eventually cease all evil and cultivate all good.

This is why when we seek Buddhist teachings, we should have utmost respect and be thankful to our virtuous teachers who impart the teachings to us. Many a time, these teachers exchanged their lives to receive such precious Dharma empowerment and risked their personal safety to propagate Buddhsim and deliver sentient beings.

Yet all we have to do is to ask and we can receive the teachings effortlessly. If we behave improperly and have impure intentions, we will plant the seed of being reborn into the Three Evil Paths, banished into a world of darkness, never to hear a single word of authentic Dharma for life or be liberated from sufferings.

While these 4 books are written by Grandmaster Lu some 24 years ago, to read them in the year 2021 can still be shocking to some of us. Our society may have progressed but this is a false appearance, as our spiritual self are still lacking and in turmoil. I recommend these four books for your spiritual pursuit:

1) The Incredible Paranormal Stories (in Chinese)
2) Experiences of Spiritual Manifestations (in Chinese)
3) Revelation of the Spiritual World (in Chinese)
4) Entering the Most Hidden Yin-Yang Realm (in Chinese and English)

May you benefit from the readings.

20200929 院會-總預算質詢
#刺蝟台灣
根據《國防法》第三條：「中華民國之國防，為全民國防，包含國防軍事、全民防衛、執行災害防救及與國防有關之政治、社會、經濟、心理、科技等直接、間接有助於達成國防目的之事務。」在此我想談談全民防衛的議題。

選前我曾提出《建立刺蝟臺灣》的概念，台灣的國防目標相當困難、也相當簡單。困難的是，我們的敵人是擁有世界第二大軍隊，也是世界最無恥野蠻的中國。簡單的是，我軍的作戰目標很簡單，就是不要讓中國佔領台灣。

全民防衛動員並不是只有國防部的事情，其實至少有八個部會都有任務分配。依據《全民防衛動員法》第9條：教育部（精神動員）、內政部（人力動員）、經濟部（物資經濟動員）、財政部（財力動員）、交通部（交通動員）、衛生福利部（衛生動員）、科技部（科技動員）、軍事動員（國防部），以及《全民防衛動員法》第 45 條：「各機關推動動員準備業務所需經費，循預算程序辦理。」

此外，行政院有設立一個任務編組為「全民防衛動員準備業務會報」，跟我想提出的刺蝟臺灣的想法相似：行政院動員會報（本部）每年編列預算約1,500萬餘元，主要用途為修訂動員法規、辦理動員講習、動員業務訪問、民安及萬安演習等動員整備工作，其他的則是分布在各部會中。

實際上，光是全民防衛動員準備就跟八個部會都相關，我向這幾個單位索取資料，發現國防部主管的「軍事動員」佔大宗，國防部以外的其他動員經費加起來，都還不到軍事動員經費的一半。這樣的預算編列情形，也值得我們去思考，除了軍事動員以外，包括民防演練、國防教育等，在承平時期的你我，是不是都「有感」？

#實際上民眾對於全民防衛很陌生
首先，我希望邀請正在看這篇文章的你，思考看看距離你最近的避難點在哪裡？有沒有想過假若下一秒戰爭發生，你的下一步該做什麼？要逃？逃去哪？要留在原地？那應該注意什麼事情？

就我所在的立法院，早上我詢問碰到的人，許多人都不知道如果碰到狀況，要怎麼疏散？要怎麼行動？可見目前大家連第一時間的準備應對都不是很清楚。

為此，我詢問院長，院長所認為的全民國防教育目標應該是什麼？如何才不會像前元首一樣向國人不停喊著「首戰即終戰」這種不戰而敗的思維？

我很在乎什麼樣的方法可以承平時期讓全民有憂患意識，所以我引用了教育學中教學目標的概念，分別是：認知、情意、技能。例如：認知上，民眾知道最近的緊急疏散的地點嗎？情意上，如何增進民眾對我國國軍的信心，而不致未戰民間已經先潰敗，也就是如何建立強大心防？技能上，在面對戰爭的混亂狀態，如何有能力去找到正確訊息、冷靜應對、避難並配合民防體系來互助合作？

以瑞典來說，在網路上都可以找到政府提供給民眾的民防手冊，據稱「該份文件為瑞典政府於第一次世界大戰後，首次面對周邊環境威脅發給全國480萬戶民眾的防災手冊，內容從天災、戰爭一路提到恐怖攻擊的應對手法。」裡頭更是將可能出現的「假訊息」的應對納入其中。
“If Sweden is attacked by another country, we will never give up. All information to the effect that resistance is to cease is false.”
「如果瑞典被其他國家攻擊，我們永遠不會放棄，所有放棄抵抗的資訊都是錯誤的。」
https://www.dinsakerhet.se/siteassets/dinsakerhet.se/broschyren-om-krisen-eller-kriget-kommer/om-krisen-eller-kriget-kommer---engelska-2.pdf

當然，台灣民間也很多熱心的網友紛紛以共筆的方式翻譯成中文，甚至整理了其他國家的民防資訊，包括瑞典、瑞士、以色列，並分享在網路上。https://hackmd.io/@billy3321/Hk2qpLtfw/%2F%40billy3321%2FS1bICIFMw

所以，我要求行政院以全民防衛動員會報的高度，跨部會共同研議一本屬於臺灣的民防手冊，讓全民國防夠「全民」夠「有感」！

#教召能量需要調整
此外，關於教召部分，其他國家如瑞士、以色列後備訓練都很充足。關於教召大家評論不一，但我自己過去參加教召時，分配到空軍飛機跑道整備，這個技術可以說台灣是最先進的，甚至比許多先進國家都還強！所以我認為很有意義，若教召有意義，就會增加大家參加的意願，教召的強度也應該視狀況調整加強。

此外，從實質教召的內容來看，兩年前監察院曾經質疑義務役後備軍人教召自「兩年一訓」，在 2015 年改為退伍後八年內受訓二次。我們可以參考一下立法院預算中心所列「各國後備軍人教召頻次及天數」統計。

台灣 - 召訓期間：退伍8年內、頻次：8年2訓、天數：5～7天
新加坡 - 召訓期間：退伍10年內、頻次：每年、天數：40天以內
以色列 - 召訓期間：退伍3年內、頻次：每年、天數：18-28天
瑞士 - 召訓期間：退伍10年內、頻次：2年1訓、天數：每次3週

從這些數據可知，無論在頻率或天數確實都有加強的空間。

回過頭來，今年五月蔡總統陸陸續續宣示針對後備改革的決心，而今天蘇貞昌院長、嚴德發部長也對改革有所表示，我希望其他部會也一起動起來！身為外交及國防委員會的一員，接續我會加強這個議題的監督，期許從常備部隊、後備軍人，乃至你我，都可以成為全民國防的實質戰力，建立刺蝟台灣，捍衛國土！

#有感全民國防
#建立刺蝟台灣

I have recently perused Nicholas Kristof’s NYT piece “China’s Man in Washington, Named Trump”(https://nyti.ms/3h2JXh8). One paragraph in particular caught my attention: “A joke in China suggests that Trump’s Chinese name is Chuan Jianguo, or “Build-the-Country Trump.” That’s because Build-the-Country is a common revolutionary name among Communist patriots, and it’s mockingly suggested that Trump’s misrule of the United States is actually bolstering Xi’s regime.”

Kristoff also avows that since Trump’s ascension to presidency, the American nation became highly polarized. This is reflected in the current administration’s policies on climate change, foreign relations with established U.S. allies, and COVID-19 prevention, all of which are rather ineffective. It also seems like Mr. Trump and his team diverged from the traditional priorities, including promoting free trade, human rights, and other quintessentially American values. As described thoroughly by John Bolton, all these factors contributed to the declining standing of the U.S. in global politics.

What is more, many people fall prey to CCP’s propaganda and its interpretations of Trump’s actions, which only enhances China’s reputation.

But that might not exactly be the case.

The CCP apparently failed to utilize the window of opportunity created by the ineptness of the Trump administration, as China could have grown to the position of a leader by filling in the void left by the U.S.

During the 2016 APEC Ministerial Meeting in Lima, Peru, Xi Jinping and his team actively supported the plans to establish the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) and a Free Trade Area of the Asia Pacific, or FTAAP. In contrast, the United States withdrew its signature from the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) in early 2017. Coupled with China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and the establishment of the Asian Infrastructure and Investment Bank (AIIB), this move bolstered China’s capacity to influence global investments and trade, high-tech mergers and acquisitions, and, overall, expand its geostrategic influence on the entire globe.

At the same time, various propaganda films about great power competition, military industry, and science and technology surged all at once, and gained remarkable following around the world.

All this provided a window of opportunity for the CCP to slowly change its course. Around the same time, the distrust for POTUS among U.S. allies’ reached its apex. According to polls conducted by the Pew Research Center, the distrust for the U.S. president in the U.K. reached 75%, 72% in Japan, 70% in Australia, and stunning 86% in France.

Had the C.C.P,. begun to open up at that time, or at least resumed the governance style of the Hu-Wen administration, it could have reaped the benefits of promoting liberalism where the U.S. failed to deliver. It was the time for Beijing to gradually enhance freedom of speech domestically, pursue sustainable infrastructural projects, gradually reform unfair barriers to trade, transform its S.O.E.s, strengthen protections for private ownership, and vitalize its start-ups and enterprises.

Moreover, were China to cease the genocide in East Turkestan and refrain from cracking down on Hong Kong's semi-autonomy, it would have greatly enhanced its global international image. Additionally, if paired with slow but steady reforms, Beijing’s respect for sovereignty of its peoples would have attracted a large amount of foreign investment, which in turn would have continued to buttress the country’s growth.

It is China prerogative to remain idle.
It might still be possible for Chinese “Dream” to come true.
Yet, a historic window of opportunity is now closed.

Xi assumed the tools of proscribing and stalling, which are completely antithetical to the aforementioned window of opportunity.

Today, China is more authoritarian, less flexible, and fully deprived of horizontal accountability. Its reliance on wolf warrior diplomacy backfired: for example, the Swedish parliament sought to expel the Chinese ambassador to Stockholm. Also, Prague, the capital of Czechia, terminated its sister-city agreement with Shanghai and instead signed a new one with Taipei. Last but not least, we ought not to forget about the recent fiasco in the relations with the United States who ordered the shutdown of China’s consulate in Houston. All of this took its toll on China’s reputation.

Its international standing and inability to replace the U.S. as the major global power are not the only issues China is currently facing.
As it experiences multiple domestic and international shocks, China struggles to combat the COVID-19 pandemic and tame the disastrous floods of Yangtze River. The swarm of locusts of biblical proportions is also crippling Beijing’s institutional capacity and may soon lead to food shortages. In fact, the precarity of food supply further diminishes the level of trust for Chinese authorities.

In 2019, the Pew Research Center conducted a public opinion survey to examine the international views of China. In the U.S., Argentina, the U.K., Canada, Germany, and Ukraine, only about 30% of respondents claim a favorable view of China.

As the COVID-19 pandemic rages in the U.S., as many as 73% of U.S. respondents view China unfavorably.

Recently, the C.C.P. is losing its focus by continuously shifting targets. In fact, I believe there is no need for the C.C.P.to rely on nationalistic appeals, since in this new century values, business relations, and fair competition are all far more important than greater than delusive blood ties.
China lies only 130 kilometers away from us. Of course, we welcome dialogue and seek to avoid misjudgments. But we also distinguish between the C.C.P. and China. While we do welcome dialogue, but we will not be coerced to talk under unjust preconditions or in fear.

The only fair prerequisites are those of reciprocity, mutual respect as well as fairness and openness with respect for the rule of law.

最近看到紐約時報中文版的一篇文章
<美國的川普，中國的「川建國」>，其中一小段是這樣的

「在中國，人們戲稱川普的中文名字是川建國。那是因為建國是共產黨愛國者中一個普遍的革命人名。它在諷刺地暗示川普對美國的治理不當實際上是在鞏固習近平的政權。」

裡面也提到，川普在任的幾年，國家更分裂，對於氣候變遷，傳統美國盟友，乃至於疫情處理等都相當拙劣，對於美國傳統的自由貿易、人權等價值也基本上都沒有太大興趣。這些方針，導致美國在世界的評價降低，波頓的新書也多有描述。

除此之外，許多不幸相信中共宣傳，又或者是中共圈養的小粉紅，特別故意愛宣傳川普增強中國的威望。

但這不是真的。

中共完全沒有掌握美國做得不夠好的地方，去增強其在世界的領導力。

在2016年時，秘魯的亞太峰會舉行期間，習近平政權爭取（RCEP）及亞太自由貿易區（FTAAP）談判；對比2017年初，美國剛宣布退出ＴＰＰ，加上中國到「一帶一路」和亞洲基礎設施投資銀行，中國當時在世界全面發揮投資貿易、高科技併購還有其地緣戰略的影響力。

也是那個時候，各種的大國崛起、大國軍工、大國科技的宣傳影片此起彼落，似乎正準備要在世界舞台發光發熱。

這曾經是中共慢慢轉向的一個機會之窗。彼時（2017)美國盟友對美國總統的不信任度達到歷史新高，根據皮尤研究中心的資訊，英國對於美國總統的不信任度達到75%、日本72% 澳洲70% 法國更高達86%

如果那時中共開始有限度的改革，對內放寬言論自由，或者至少維持在胡溫當時的水中，對外追求有責任的基礎建設，逐步緩慢減低不公平的貿易壁壘，對於國有企業改革，增強私營企業、新創企業的活力。

停止對新疆迫害，不干預香港自治，不僅國際形象會大幅改善，哪怕是緩慢但是穩健的改革，也會讓大量吸引外資，讓中國的活力持續前進。

哪怕是什麼都不做也好

那或許有這麽一點可能性，中國「夢」是可以前行的

但是歷史機緣的大門已經關上。

習、禁、停、放棄了這個機會之窗，徹底的走向相反的方向。

更專制、更沒有彈性，更沒有任何制衡的力量。各種戰狼外交，讓瑞典議員提案驅逐中國大使，捷克布拉格市長與台北簽訂姊妹是，就解散上海與該市關係、被美國關閉領事館、各種讓中國形象低下的事情，中共都沒有少做。

中共不但完全沒有辦法取代美國，在多重國內外的衝擊之下，又是瘟疫，又是超大水患，緊接著蝗害，還有進來的糧食不足問題，正在面臨巨大的瓶頸。

而糧食的命脈，卻恰恰又在對他最不信任，對中共價值最反對的國家聯盟

根據皮尤研究中心:Pew Research Center2019調查各國對中國的喜好度，美國、阿根廷、英國、加拿大、德國、烏克蘭等，對於中國的喜好度都在30%上下

而2020疫情後美國對於中國的不信任度，更高達73%。

最近中共在演習，又要玩轉移目標的手段，對於中共，其實不必再有民族主義的同情，因為新的世紀，價值、商業模式、公平競爭的制度大於血緣幻想。

中國離我們只有130公里的距離，我們當然歡迎對話，避免誤判。但我們同時也區分中共與中國，歡迎對話，但不在前提、條件、恐懼之下對話。

如果真的要有前提，那就是對等、尊重，還有公平公開法治的方式會晤。

上次同大家講到，要練好英文的文筆，就要多看優美的文字，不要把閱讀限於課本，或報紙，或雜誌。應該多找經典文字，讀莎士比亞可以，讀Charles Dickens可以，要像我們學中文讀古文一樣，多讀，多感受文字之美。只讀還不夠，有心的話，還應該背誦。上次蕭叔叔分享了蘇格蘭作家Andrew Lang寫的兒童讀物Tales of Troy and Greece裡面其中一段描寫戰爭的段落，文筆氣勢磅礡，讓蕭叔叔看的血脈沸騰。上回講到，希臘戰將Patroclus戰死沙場；今次這一段，是說之前因個人爭執而拒絕出戰的Achilles，要為好友Patroclus報仇。他說：I will not cease from fighting till I have given the Trojans their fill of war. 我不打到他們落花流水，誓不收兵。

Thrice Achilles shouted mightily, and thrice the horses of the Trojans shuddered for fear and turned back from the onslaught - and thrice the men of Troy were confounded and shaken with terror.

一落場，Achilles（蕭叔叔喜歡叫他「希臘呂布」，因為都是一樣萬夫莫敵。）大叫三聲，頗有三國張飛在長板橋喝倒曹軍戰馬的氣勢。留意作者把thrice一字放前，能加強氣勢：Thrice Achilles shouted mightily, and thrice… 這樣寫，比Achilles shouted thrice mightily強得多了。然後Achilles同敵將Hector大戰，Hector快輸了，他大叫：

“Let me not die without honour!” and drew his sword, and rushed at Achilles, who sprang to meet him, but before Hector could come within a sword-stroke Achilles had sent his spear clean through the neck of Hector.

Hector把長矛掉失了，只有靠手中短劍，但未埋身，就被Achilles的矛刺破喉嚨。留意這段的動詞，非常生動，drew，rushed，sprang，sent his spear clean through等等。

He fell in the dust and Achilles said, “Dogs and birds shall tear your flesh unburied.”

幾惡毒！我不會為你收屍，就讓你的屍體在戰場暴曬，讓野狗野鳥吃你的肉吧。Dogs and birds shall tear your flesh unburied. 好厲害，好簡單，好直接的文字。

With his dying breath Hector prayed him to take gold from Priam, and give back his body to be burned in Troy. But Achilles said, “Hound! would that I could bring myself to carve and eat thy raw flesh, but dogs shall devour it, even if thy father offered me thy weight in gold.”

Hector哀求Achilles，把我的屍身送回我城吧，我爹會給你黃金。Achilles說，狗賊！即使你爹給我跟你屍身一樣重的黃金，我都不會把你送回Troy城：even if thy father offered me thy weight in gold。這句，表現了什麼叫簡潔有力的文字。

大家可能會問，我平時有幾可會描述戰爭嘅場景呀？讀呢啲文章，又有乜用？咁睇就錯了，多讀文筆流麗的文字，不但能培養英語文字的節奏感，也能學習多變得用字和造句，以及靈活運用文字的spirit，這些都是多讀多背經典文字的好處。先背了吧，以後寫作時，文氣會不經不覺地「滲」出來。 Http://www.facebook.com/siuhoiyat
