Melanie 師姐的分享
Written by Charles Meng我的一點禪修心得 自從2009年7月參加蒙特瑞的禪修班,至今已經2年多了。從最初希望解決睡眠問題初衷到現在結識了這麽多可親可敬的同修,覺得收獲真是不小。 雖然常常覺得打坐枯燥,還得不斷地與腿痛,妄念和懶惰較量,也看不到那種日新月異的變化。但是,往往過一段時間再回顧,就會發現自己無論在健康上,在精神上,都有令人驚喜的改變。盡管我還是那個我,很多舊有的習性仍然在我修行的路上拖拽著我,但是我得到了內心的祥、平靜和自信,不僅睡眠狀況得到了徹底的改善,其他的健康問題也都或多或少地改善了。還得到了這麽多相互關心的兄弟姐妹。 去年7月份參加Jessica辦的新班,雖說是去幫助護持新班,從表面看來好像是奉獻了我的時間幫助新同修,但是,我發現實際上是新同修幫助了我,12個新同修把jessica的客廳坐得滿滿的,每個人都認真地實踐,和大家一起分享自己的體驗,我從中獲益不少。更確信了禪修不分早晚,同修完全平等的道理。特別是在最後一個星期二的課上,兩年多來我從來沒有找到的無始脈輪,突然清晰地跳動起來了,這個意外的驚喜使我明白了,只要大家坐在一起共修,無論資深資淺,我們共同營造的氣場使每一個在場的人獲益了。共修時,你既是奉獻者也是獲益者。 當我們新班搬入我們新租的蒙特瑞禪堂上最後幾課時,有新同修擔心禪堂租金高,大家承擔有困難。我把我的體會告訴她;這個禪堂充滿了能量,大家都有貢獻,只要你加入共修,你在禪修中獲益,你也是一名貢獻者。因為一兩個人共修和一二十個人共修,禪堂的能量一定不一樣。所以,只要你來,你就是在奉獻。沒有必要為不能奉獻金錢而擔憂。 我記得曾經讀過震堯師兄(周末給我們上課的老師)一封信,他說“不要因為我們一句不得體的話或者不好的態度,傷害了其他同修,使得他們不願意來共修了,讓他們失去了這個寶貴的禪修機會,這是非常可惜的(大意)。”信中流露的懇切態度令我非常感動,使我明白,每一位同修對我們每一個人來講,都是非常珍貴的。我希望有一天我們的禪堂因為同修太多而不得不換成一個更大的,我也希望那些曾經對我有過幫助的新班同修,能夠繼續和我們在一起,為身體的健康,為心靈的祥和,一起努力禪修,精進。Be the first to comment! -
