• 助念往生

    1978年,宣化上人师父到麻坡净业寺弘法,当时我 一岁,感恩爸爸让我有缘的皈依了师父。 爸爸在八零年代,组织了妙音念佛会,免费的为将要往生的佛友组念,推广放生和共修念阿弥陀佛。 从一个人单枪匹马到现在已经有一群发心的佛友,当中很多都是往生者的家属。。。 在2014年,爸爸在一群佛友的组念下,往生了西方极乐世界,火化后,有舍利子,其中有一粒金色和一粒银色的舍利子,极为殊深。 阿弥陀佛!

  • Freeing Animals onDad’s Birthday

    My parents were resistive to freeing captive animals. Because they are not vegetarian and think freeing captive animals is a waste of money. On my Dad’s birthday, he received many kinds of gifts. I said I would give him a very special gift for his health and long life by freeing captive animals on this special day. Somehow he finally agreed to buy some native fish with eggs and happily freed them into the river. I could see he really enjoyed the moment of offering freedom to other lives.

I was doing the dishes then and when I saw what is going to happened, I commented, leave them alone, they will be gone before you knew it. I am glad the person listened to what i said, put down the smasher and walked out of the kitchen. I then passed a remark to the fly, I saved you now, if you still not going to leave, I can’t promise I can save you again. I then chanted Amitofo…
