【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.

【After Winning Majority in LegCo: Beijing's Crackdown May Trigger International Intervention】

***感謝Hong Kong Columns - Translated，將我早前撰寫『議會過半想像：以「#國際攬炒」反制「臨立會2.0」』長文（https://www.facebook.com/joshuawongchifung/photos/a.313299448762570/2887650867994069/）翻譯成英文，鼓勵國際社會關注立會選舉一旦過半的沙盤推演，在最惡劣形勢下的制衡策略。***

中文精簡版本：https://www.facebook.com/joshuawongchifung/photos/a.564294826996363/2888641404561682/

Hongkongers have experienced our revolution for over half a year. They no longer take a consequentialist view to the effectiveness of their movement as they did years ago, or waste time second-guessing the intentions and background of fellow activists. Following the defensive battles at CUHK and PolyU, November’s District Council election saw a great victory of unity. More marvellous is the union between peaceful and “valiant” protesters.

In the process of resisting tyranny, the people have realised that one cannot prioritize one strategy over another. This is also how the common goal of “35+” came into being—the hope that we will win over half of the seats in the Legislative Council (LegCo) this September, such that the political spectrum that represents the majority of Hongkongers is able to gain control of legislative decisions. The political clout of Hongkongers will increase if 35 or more seats are successfully secured on our side. It is certainly one vital step to achieve the five demands within the system.

The possibility of realizing legislative majority

Technically it is not unrealistic to win a majority even under the current undemocratic system. Back in the 2016 LegCo election, we already won 30 seats. In addition to the District Council (First) functional constituency seat that is already in the pocket of the pan-democrats, as long as the candidates in Kowloon East and New Territories West do not start infighting again, we could safely secure 33 seats based on the number of pan-dem votes in 2016.

The other 3 seats required to achieve a majority depend on democrats’ breakthrough among the functional constituencies by dispersing the resources of the Liaison Office. They also count on whether the turnout this September could exceed 71.2% — that of last year’s District Council elections. Some of the factors that could affect the turnout include: will the epidemic persist into the summer? Will there be potential violent repression of protests in the 2 weeks preceding the election? Will Hong Kong-US relations be affected by the downturn of the global economy?

Therefore, the ambition of “35+” is to be prioritised by the resistance as both a means and an end. I have already expressed my support for an intra-party primary at the coordination meeting. In the meantime, it is pleasing to see the ongoing debates reaching a consensus of maximising the seats among geographical constituencies in the upcoming election.

Whilst enthusiastic coordination, we should also assess the post-election landscape and gauge Beijing’s reactions: if we do not reach 35 seats, Hong Kong will be subject to tighter control and more severe repression by China; but if the democratic parties successfully form a majority in LegCo, CCP’s fears of a “constitutional crisis” would become imminent. Hence, the key questions are how the Pan-Democrats should deal with the volatile political situation in Hong Kong and how they are going to meet Beijing’s charge head-on.

Watching out for Beijing’s dismissal of LegCo after reaching majority

To take back control of LegCo such that it faithfully reflects the majority’s principles and needs is the definition of a healthy democracy. Recently, however, DAB’s Tam Yiu-chung has warned that the plan of the Pan-Dems to “usurp power” in the LegCo would only lead to Beijing’s forceful disqualification of certain members or the interpretation of the Basic Law. This proves that winning a majority in LegCo is not only a popular conception but also a realistic challenge that would get on the nerves of Beijing. Could Beijing accept a President James To in LegCo? These unknown variables must be addressed upon achieving a majority.

While there is no telltale sign as to Beijing’s exact strategy, we are already familiar with the way CCP manipulated the Basic Law in the past 4 years. Having experienced three waves of disqualifications in LegCo, twice kicked out of LegCo with my team, and thrice locked up in jail, I have no false hopes of an easy compromise from Beijing: they would not let Pan-Dems control LegCo for half a year and wait (as is the proper procedure) until after having negatived the Budget to dissolve the legislature, and thereby giving them an easy victory in the re-elections. The greater the Pan-Dems threaten Beijing’s rule in Hong Kong, the more likely that it will trigger Beijing’s repression.

Since the disqualification and arrest of lawmakers have already become “normalised”, one can even imagine the police stepping into the LegCo building to force Pan-Dems into voting. Neither is it beyond our imagination to expect the CCP to kick out all 70 lawmakers in a fit of rage and replace them with a provisional LegCo “2.0” [HKCT note: The first was from 25 Jan 1997 to 30 Jun 1998]. To depend on a majority that could lead to a chapter of a “new testament” for One Country, Two Systems is perhaps what many elites long for, but they are overly optimistic:for a ticket to the promised land will not be available at the Chief Executive election campaign a year and a half later.

Admittedly, the Pan-Dems cannot unilaterally initiate “Laam-chaau” [HKCT note: mostly translated into “scorched-earth” mentality or “mutual destruction”; some even translated into “If I burn, you burn with us”]. The most they can do is to force a standstill of the government, and not for long the LegCo will have been eliminated from the equation to make the wheels turn again. It all leaves the plan of “Negativing the motion → Dissolving LegCo → Re-election after re-election → the stepping down of Carrie Lam” merely as overly positive speculation, probably resulting from their overestimate of CCP's capacity for rational calculation. The Pan-Dems must guard their frontlines and recognise what the biggest threat from Hong Kong to China could be. In this case, should LegCo sessions be disrupted or suspended, the Pan-Dems would have to be well prepared to surmount the expected obstacles and prevent the disqualification crisis 4 years ago—a Catch-22 indeed.

Productive tension from global intervention: Using Laam-chaau against the CCP

What aggravates the CCP the most is the potential threat to Hong Kong’s unique status as the one and only “separate customs territory”. Any miscalculation will compromise its role as the Chinese economy’s “white gloves”. Imagine if CCP were to disqualify all 70 elected lawmakers and convene a meeting north of the Shenzhen River to pass a resolution to Hong Kong’s affairs (much like the Provisional Legislative Council “1.0" in 1997), how great will the shock be in a world with an effective Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act? However hard it is to predict the future one thing is certain: With the US presidential election just around the corner, blows to the separation of powers would not be tolerated, and the West would necessarily effect countermeasures against the Hong Kong government.

Beijing has been relying upon Hong Kong to navigate the international community for decades. While clamping down on the political freedom of the cosmopolitan city, Beijing desires to maintain the financial centre’s economic freedom. Hence, we started lobbying for the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act four years ago, and today we are determined to promote “Laam-chaau” on an international scale.

The will of the voters must be reflected in an election. If a “35+” legislature were to be dismissed and replaced, such flagrant violation of democracy would assuredly cause a greater backlash than the infamous extradition bill. Knowing what the reality ahead of us could be, we have to combine our election and international strategies to oppose the placement of a 35+ LegCo with an “Emergency Legislative Council 2.0”, to advance an international “Laam-chaau” to Hong Kong’s status as “separate customs territory”. Only then will we stand a chance to resist the regime and to realise the five demands.

Adjusting our mindset: Overcoming the “constitutional crisis” to reach a resolution

Upon the realization of the “35+” LegCo, it is expected that the CCP will launch a devastating counterattack. The Pan-Dems should not expect LegCo to run normally; neither can the lawmakers realise their governing blueprints they have for Hong Kong. Rather, candidates will be able to compete against one another with visions of a liberated Hong Kong through popular vote. Bringing this point up has nothing to do with undermining the common goal of reaching a majority in LegCo, but rather channels the battle of LegCo to positive use upon the rule of law’s death and a “constitutional crisis” ahead. Knowing that Hongkongers have nothing to fall back on, all Pan-Dems should not miss the only way to the realization of “35+”.

Thus, be they partisans, nonpartisans, incumbent politicians, amateur politicians, or the civil society as a whole – if we stay in the political discourse of 2016 and continue to perpetuate old stereotypes, that is to deal with the divisions on the pan-democratic camp by favouring the most “local” faction; to consider only resource allocation and self-aggrandizement as the purpose of a LegCo campaign; to ignore how potential lawmakers are fitted to what specific roles; to turn a blind eye to the journey of resistance since last summer (extending indefinitely into the future)—They would lead as astray and cost us lose a precious opportunity for change by winning a 35+ majority.

The extent to which the pan-democrats can stay united in light of the political atmosphere since last summer is another problem that our side must to address. Before the watershed moment of 12th June 2019, many democratic delegates were trapped in the mentality of needing to “preserve people’s livelihood”, “be content of what we have accomplished”, and other strategies that favours stability. As the government refuses to heed to the five demands, whether the democrats, especially those in the functional constituencies, have the political will to go all-in is the real difficult question that confronts us in the upcoming LegCo election.

All in all, if “35+” cannot be realised, it is unsurprising to see LegCo being more heavily suppressed in the next 4 years; even if "35+" is achieved, it is questionable whether the pan-democrats are able to weather multiple attacks, verbal or physical, from the regime (judging from its power in the last four years) and utilise the international Laam-chaau strategy against the displacement of LegCo. Adhering to the motto of “we fight on, each in his own way”, I can only hope that Hongkongers in elections, street confrontations and international front can reconcile with each other, so that we may collectively compel the government to yield to our demands in the next six months. It is only by reaching a resolution before a real constitutional crisis that we can combat the institutional violence of the regime and not be devoured by it.

場景報告：龐克紀錄片影展

如同《國亡之日》（The Day the Country Died）一書作者Ian Glasper於同名紀錄片中所說：「我訪問了不下數百個人關於『無政府龐克』是什麼，結果得到了數百個答案。」所以我們也無意定義龐克「是什麼」。「場景報告：龐克紀錄片影展」蒐集來自英國、日本與印尼等地的龐克相關紀錄片，除了震耳欲聾的音樂，議題更涵蓋DIY（自己搞）、集體主義、公社、無政府、性別、環境、動物權、政治參與......。且看1970年代末期喧騰一時的無政府龐克樂團駑鈍（Crass）如何於音樂創作與日常生活貫徹「拒絕權威，自己做主」原則？日本的龐克社群在311福島核災後，又是如何以音樂與行動參與政治和社會？或者聆聽印尼場景中的女性成員娓娓道來龐克啟蒙的經驗，並且直面場景內的性別與暴力議題。究竟龐克是一種「超越時尚與音樂、背後隱藏一種哲學」（語出《叢林裡的龐克》一片）？或者已如駑鈍樂團於40多年前所唱：「龐克淪為嬉皮，成為運動，但我們卻開始感到迷惘」（〈Punk is Dead〉）？可以確定的是，至今世界各地仍有為數眾多的龐克樂團與樂迷們，秉持DIY的精神，對此問題進行反覆辯證。

★★★★★【影片介紹】★★★★★

【拒絕權威 自己做主】
There Is No Authority But Yourself

除了性手槍（Sex Pistols）與衝擊樂團（The Clash），龐克還有駑鈍（Crass）！如果說1975年性手槍的組建與登台呻吟「沒有未來」，開啟了第一波的龐克浪潮、衝擊樂團被評論者視為龐克的良心，稍後成立的駑鈍，則為後續至今世界各地的龐克樂團與愛好者，指出一條可供實踐的道路。音樂上，駑鈍樂團對於成員加入持開放原則，並以集體方式創作生產，專輯封面標明「售價不高於...」，其視覺美學持續影響後繼者們。政治實踐方面，除了歌曲對於個人與社會的批判，樂團成員也投入街頭塗鴉，甚至偽造當時英國首相柴契爾與美國總統雷根關於福克蘭戰爭之對話錄音帶，一時引發媒體的軒然大波。即便樂團最終劃下句點，部分成員仍堅守艾賽克斯郡（Essex）的集體公屋「戴爾之屋」（Dial House），持續創作與實踐。

片名「There is No Authority But Yourself」是樂團第五張專輯《Yes Sir, I Will》之最後一句歌詞，亦可濃縮樂團的政治思想。影片包括樂團成員的訪問與演出影像，除了講述駑鈍樂團的歷史，也介紹紀錄戴爾之屋的運作大小事。

【國亡之日】
The Day The Country Died

此片為作家／歷史學者／龐克音樂人Ian Glasper同名書籍對當事人的採訪與現場資料視頻，訪問Crass、Flux of Pink Indians、Subhumans、Chumbawamba與Conflict等眾多樂隊成員，追溯1980至1984年期間發生於英國的無政府主義龐克運動歷史：反種族主義、反性別歧視、反戰、反核、反同性戀歧視、反全球化，主張「DIY not EMI」；從無政府主義龐克開始，龐克不再是暴動與混亂，而是和平、自由與團結。

【叢林裡的龐克】
Punk Im Dschugel

時間回溯至2005年，跟隨德國龐克樂團Cluster Bomb Unit的腳步來到印尼，展開一段橫跨雅加達、日惹與婆羅洲的巡迴演出之旅，經歷彼時舞台下千人竄動的美好時刻。本片訪問當時印尼各地的龐克集合、活動籌畫者、樂迷以及行動者，講述印尼龐克場景如何萌發之歷史，也紀錄了當時各種蓬勃DIY的活動、刊物與行動。ㄧ如Cluster Bomb Unit團員滿意地說道：「如果這個地方有床與廁所，就是天堂了！」

片長：84分鐘
語言：印尼語、德語、英語
字幕：中文

【這也是我們的場景！】
Ini Scene Kami Juga!

「如果你對你身邊的人或社區沒有同理心，那麼你跟其他人並沒有什麼不同。」

龐克喜愛吵雜快速的演奏音樂、乖張的服飾與嚇人的刺青，藉以宣誓拒絕主流的姿態。本片訪問參與印尼龐克場景中的女性成員，回憶接觸龐克音樂與活動的因緣際會、龐克對於個人生活的影響，此外更道出場景中成員們時常拒絕直面的各種問題：對女性成員的賤斥、性騷擾、暴力...等等，觀影者藉由受訪者講述親身經驗與看法，將會意識到：次文化與所謂主流社會的距離，其實並沒有想像中遙遠...

片長：67分鐘

【放射能行動者－福島後的日本抗爭行動】
Radioactivists – Protest in Japan since Fukushima

311福島核災後，日本面臨巨大的社會政治變動；之前，街頭抗爭在日本是罕見的畫面。就在災後的1個月，名為「素人之亂」的行動者們策劃日本自1970年以來最大規模的示威，他們製作各種繽紛而語調活潑的標語、移動式的搖滾或電子音樂卡車，展示有別於傳統工會或運動團體動員的抗議行動之不同風貌。另一方面，一群龐克組成了名為「Human Recovery Porject」的行動團體，在音樂演出之外，共同思索各種行動的可能性...
