「第十大願：願我來世得菩提時，若諸有情王法所加，縛錄鞭撻，繫閉牢獄，或當刑戮，及餘無量災難凌辱，悲愁煎逼，身心受苦；若聞我名，以我福德威神力故，皆得解脫一切憂苦！」
「第十一大願：願我來世得菩提時，若諸有情饑渴所惱，為求食故造諸惡業；得聞我名，專念受持，我當先以上妙飲食飽足其身，後以法味畢竟安樂而建立之」。
「第十二大願：願我來世得菩提時，若諸有情貧無衣服，蚊虻寒熱，晝夜逼惱；若聞我名，專念受持，如其所好即得種種上妙衣服，亦得一切寶莊嚴具，華鬘、塗香，鼓樂眾伎，隨心所翫，皆令滿足」。

Twelve Great Vows of Bhaisajyaguru Vaidurya Prabha Rajaya Tathagata
The first vow. ‘I vow that, after my reincarnation and having attained complete Enlightenment, my body should be shining like a brilliant light, throwing beams on infinite, and boundless, worlds, adorned with a retinue of thirty-two forms of the Great Men and with eighty physical characteristics of the Buddha, I shall make all beings wholly equal to me.’
The second vow. ‘I vow that, after my reincarnation and having attained Perfect Enlightenment, my body should be like a crystal in spotless purity both within and without, with splendorous radiant light, in the majesty of its virtue, sitting serenely, adorned with the aureole, brighter than the sun and the moon, I shall reveal my great power to all the beings in obscurity, in order that they may act freely according to their bent.’
The third vow. ‘I vow that, after my reincarnation and having attained Perfect Enlightenment, I should grant by means of boundless wisdom, to all beings the inexhaustible things that they may need and that they may be free from any want.’
The fourth vow. ‘I vow that, after my reincarnation and having attained Perfect enlightenment, I should bring those who have gone the heterodox ways to dwell tranquilly in the way of Bodhi; and those who travel on the Vehicle of the Sramana and the Pratyekabuddha to stand firmly in the Great Vehicle of Bodhisattva.’
The fifth vow. ‘I vow that, after my reincarnation and having attained Perfect Enlightenment, I should enable the innumerable beings to observe all the moral laws to mend their ways to pure living, and to obey the three cumulative commandments. Should there be any relapse, or violation, they shall again become pure once they hear of my name, then they shall not fall into evil existences.’
The sixth vow. 'I vow that, after my reincarnation and having attained Perfect Enlightenment, those beings who are physically inferior, with imperfect senses, such as, the ugly, stupid, blind, deaf, mute, crippled, paralysed, hump-backed, leprous, lunatic, or sick in many respects, shall all of them, when they hear my name, regain their normal appearances and become intelligent. All their senses shall be perfectly restored, and they shall not suffer from diseases.'
The seventh vow. 'I vow that, after my reincarnation and having attained Perfect Enlightenment, those who are tormented by diseases, who have nobody to whom they can seek for help, without a refuge, without a doctor, without medicine, without relatives, without a home; these poor and miserable beings shall all of them be free from diseases and troubles, and shall enjoy perfect health of body and mind, once my name reaches their ears. They shall have families, friends and properties a-plenty, and shall all be brought to the supreme Enlightenment of Buddha.'
The eighth vow. 'I vow that, after my reincarnation and having attained Perfect Enlightenment, women who are tormented by the hundred of sufferings of the female sex, who are much wearied of life and long to make bodily sacrifice, shall all of them, when they hear my name, be transformed into men instead of women, in the next re-birth, they shall get the form of manhood and shall in the end attain the supreme Enlightenment of Buddha.'
The ninth vow. 'I vow that, after my reincarnation and having attained Perfect Enlightenment, I should let all being to escape the evil nets of Mara, to be free from other non-Buddhist cults. If they should have fallen into the dense forest of false doctrines, I should assist and lead them to the noble truths, and gradually induce them to lead the life of a Bodhisattva and soon they shall attain supreme Enlightenment of Buddha.'
The tenth vow. 'I vow that, after my reincarnation and having attained Perfect Enlightenment, I should bring it to pass that all those who are recorded and condemned by the royal law to be bound and whipped, to be enchained in prisons, to be sentenced to capital punishment, to meet numerous other disasters and insult, to be afflicted with sorrow and anguish, to be troubled both in body and in mind, shall, when they hear of my name, escape evil kalpas through the awe-inspiring majesty of my blessedness and virtue.'
The eleventh vow. 'I vow that, after my reincarnation and having attained Perfect Enlightenment, I should bring it to pass that all beings who are tormented by hunger and thirst and who, in order to obtain drink and food, if they can carefully remember my name and cherish it, then I should let them taste the flavour of the Dharma, and eventually lead a tranquil and happy life.'
The twelfth vow. 'I vow that, after my reincarnation and having attained Perfect Enlightenment, all beings who are poor and naked, tormented day and night by mosquitoes and wasps, by cold and heat, when they hear my name and carefully remember and cherish it, shall receive the wonderful garments of all kinds, as well as valuable ornaments, chaplets of fragrant flower; and various kinds of instrumental music shall resound. Whatever they dream of, they shall have in abundance.

Excerpt from Bhaisajyaguru Sutra
藥師誕...
Today is the Birthday of Bhaisajyaguru Buddha, Medicine Buddha in English (Lunar 30th of 9th month)...
So thought of putting up a couple of posts regarding Bhaisajyaguru Buddha..... Since not many people know about Bhaisajyaguru Buddha. Might just do a really short description....
Bhaisajyaguru Vaidurya Prabha Rajaya Tathagata or translated to English as Master of Healing, Lapis Lazuli radiance Tathagata or in Chinese 藥師琉璃光如來, is the Buddha of the Eastern Pureland. Bhaisajyaguru Buddha is part of the Trinity (Bhaisajyaguru Buddha on the left, Amitabha Buddha on the right and Sakyamuni Buddha at the centre) in many Chinese monastery/temple.
Bhaisajyaguru Buddha is often portrayed holding a pagoda.
In the eastern pureland (lapis Lazuli pure land), Bhaisajyaguru Buddha has two main Bodhisattvas as disciples, Moon Radiance Bodhisattva (月光遍照菩薩) and Sun Radiance Bodhisattva (日光遍照菩薩)....
Bhaisajyaguru Buddha and Both Boddhisattvas are often referred as the Eastern Pure land Trinity.
Bhaisajyaguru Buddha made 12 vows before attaining Buddhahood....
Will post those on the next one.

Past, Present, Future.....
HIDUP HANYA 3 HARI
Yang pertama: Hari kemarin. (PAST)
Anda tak bisa mengubah apa pun yang telah terjadi.
Anda tak bisa menarik perkataan yang telah terucapkan.
Anda tak mungkin lagi menghapus kesalahan;
dan mengulangi kegembiraan yang anda rasakan kemarin.
Biarkan hari kemarin lewat; lepaskan saja...
Yang kedua: Hari esok. (FUTURE)
Hingga mentari esok hari terbit,
Anda tak tahu apa yang akan terjadi.
Anda tak bisa melakukan apa-apa esok hari.
Anda tak mungkin sedih atau ceria di esok hari.
Esok hari belum tiba; biarkan saja...
Yang tersisa kini hanyalah : Hari ini. (PRESENT)
Pintu masa lalu telah tertutup;
Pintu masa depan pun belum tiba.
Pusatkan saja diri anda untuk hari ini.
Anda dapat mengerjakan lebih banyak hal hari ini
bila anda mampu memaafkan hari kemarin dan melepaskan
ketakutan akan esok hari.
Hiduplah hari ini. Karena, masa lalu dan masa depan
hanyalah permainan pikiran yang rumit.
Hiduplah apa adanya.
Karena yang ada hanyalah hari ini; hari ini yang abadi.
Perlakukan setiap orang dengan kebaikan hati dan
rasa hormat, meski mereka berlaku buruk pada anda.
Cintailah seseorang sepenuh hati hari ini,
karena mungkin besok cerita sudah berganti.
Ingatlah bahwa anda menunjukkan penghargaan pada
orang lain bukan karena siapa mereka, tetapi karena
siapakah diri anda sendiri.
Jadi teman,
jangan biarkan masa lalu mengekangmu atau
masa depan membuatmu bingung, lakukan yang terbaik.
HARI INI dan lakukan SEKARANG juga!!!!!!
The day will come when you will review your life
and be thankful for every minute of it.
Every hurt,every sorrow, every joy, every
celebration, every moment of your life will be a treasure.
This is why today is called a PRESENT

Waiting......
Received this lovely story from a friend of mine..... So sweet in a sense, I think.....
Hoping and waiting......
Love.... Love.... Love.... Not easy man.... but somehow hehe....
Hoping and waiting......
Once upon a time there was an island where all the
feelings lived; happiness, sadness, knowledge, and all the others, including
love.
One day it was announced to all of the feelings that the island
was going to sink to the bottom of the ocean. So all the feelings prepared their
boats to leave.
Love was the only one that stayed. She wanted to
preserve the island paradise until the last possible moment.
When the
island was almost totally under, Love decided it was time to leave. She began
looking for someone to ask for help.
Just then Richness was passing by
in a grand boat. Love asked, “Richness, Can I come with you on your boat?”
Richness answered, ” I’m sorry, but there is a lot of silver and gold on
my boat and there would be no room for you anywhere.”
Then Love decided
to ask Vanity for help who was passing in a beautiful vessel.
Love cried
out, “Vanity, help me please.”
“I can’t help you”, Vanity said, “You are
all wet and will damage my beautiful boat.”
Next, Love saw Sadness passing
by.
Love said, “Sadness, please let me go with you.”
Sadness
answered, “Love, I’m sorry, but, I just need to be alone now.”
Then, Love
saw Happiness.
Love cried out, ” Happiness, please take me with you.”
But Happiness was so overjoyed that he didn’t hear Love calling to him. Love
began to cry.
Then, she heard a voice say, “Come Love, I will take you
with me.” It was an elder. Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that she forgot to
ask the elder his name.
When they arrived on land the elder went on his
way. Love realized how much she owed the elder.
Love then found
Knowledge and asked, “Who was it that helped me?”
“It was Time”,
Knowledge answered.
“But why did Time help me when no one else would?”,
Love asked.
Knowledge smiled and with deep wisdom and sincerity,
answered,
“Because only Time is capable of understanding how great Love
is.”
Love.... Love.... Love.... Not easy man.... but somehow hehe....

Why during this time????
It's always sad to think about the past.......
WHY???
WHY???
Why did it turn out this way????
MOST importantly why does it come to my mind during this time?????
Issshhhh.......
Perhaps it can't be helped.....
Things should not be that way if both parties have their commitments.
Which means something not right was going on.....
But then again.....
All the efforts and moments.......
What a waste....
Aigghhhh.....
I am still myself afterall.....
The part of me that I myself can't change...... Nor can anyone else......
Which is the reason that I always 自己吃虧.....

让我爱你
没有起伏的情绪因为你出现后划破平静
震撼我已紧封闭的心冰山河雪在融解
回到初次的相遇风在吹一个人独自美丽
灰的天空为何没有表情你的心相遇
就让我爱你没有了自己
残破的光影黑暗中深深吸引
绝对地就算生命所剩无几
只要拥抱瞬间的默契
就让我爱你证明有奇迹
再狂野的心灵魂的深处有你
我愿意放弃世界微笑而去
幸福和缘却在一起
过去总是挥不去
再坚强记忆仍像恶梦不醒
我的泪水淌过你的天空
雨下不停心好痛
风像画笔看着我
你的容颜尽在风的前头
我的心划出第一次的彩虹
因为你我相信
就让我爱你没有了自己
残破的光影黑暗中深深吸引
绝对地就算生命所剩无几
只要拥抱瞬间的默契
就让我爱你证明有奇迹
再狂野的心灵魂的深处有你
我愿意放弃世界微笑而去
幸福和缘却在一起
就让我爱你没有了自己
残破的光影黑暗中深深吸引
绝对地就算生命所剩无几
只要拥抱瞬间的默契
就让我爱你证明有奇迹
再狂野的心灵魂的深处有你
我愿意放弃世界微笑而去
下一个世纪让我爱你
震撼我已紧封闭的心冰山河雪在融解
回到初次的相遇风在吹一个人独自美丽
灰的天空为何没有表情你的心相遇
就让我爱你没有了自己
残破的光影黑暗中深深吸引
绝对地就算生命所剩无几
只要拥抱瞬间的默契
就让我爱你证明有奇迹
再狂野的心灵魂的深处有你
我愿意放弃世界微笑而去
幸福和缘却在一起
过去总是挥不去
再坚强记忆仍像恶梦不醒
我的泪水淌过你的天空
雨下不停心好痛
风像画笔看着我
你的容颜尽在风的前头
我的心划出第一次的彩虹
因为你我相信
就让我爱你没有了自己
残破的光影黑暗中深深吸引
绝对地就算生命所剩无几
只要拥抱瞬间的默契
就让我爱你证明有奇迹
再狂野的心灵魂的深处有你
我愿意放弃世界微笑而去
幸福和缘却在一起
就让我爱你没有了自己
残破的光影黑暗中深深吸引
绝对地就算生命所剩无几
只要拥抱瞬间的默契
就让我爱你证明有奇迹
再狂野的心灵魂的深处有你
我愿意放弃世界微笑而去
下一个世纪让我爱你

Compliment or Complement?
Talked with Jacq Chew on MSN yesterday.....
On and Off.... eventually I said "Is that supposed to be a complement?"
and she said "You can take it as a compliment."
I still asked her whether compliment was a typo....
STRUTH!!!! I am mixing things up now.....
ARRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Weep....
I never knew that....
Seriously..... I didn't even notice it that time....
Mad? I was never and you should have figured that out.....
To me the word Anger almost never exists.....
I only and shall only live in disappointment and sorrow.....
You should have known that never will I take it on someone.....
Yet somehow I feel that this is what I need to do.....
Hoping, that one day you could think for others.....
that one day you would realise what I meant......
that one day you would think before you act.....
that one day you would have the courage to resolve a problem.....
I truly wish and believe you can do it.....
Please don't let me down again.....
This tree of agony will keep on growing within myself......
Until the day it stops....
When that day comes, I wish to see the flower of happiness and harmony blooms.....
One thing I want you to know....
You might not realise it, but I am still there for you......
I will be waiting.....
Until that day reveals itself....

Haha Newai have a look at the article.....

Feels like Medan.... haha When ya driving and is on the junction, take a good look around you... no police? no car? It means go ahead.... you can ignore the traffic signal.... lol

Police promise jaywalk blitz
Hamish Townsend
October 13, 2008 - 1:37PM
Jaywalkers could be in for a very expensive
week, with Victoria Police announcing a blitz on the dangerous practice.
From tomorrow, police will issue warnings - and $57 on-the-spot fines -
to people who ignore the red man or cross roads outside marked lines.
"Pedestrians are some of our most vulnerable road users," Acting
Superintendent Paul Pottage said.
"Too often we see people distracted by
mobile phones and MP3 players walking in front of cars and trams, and it's this
sort of behaviour that leads to serious injuries or in the worst-case scenario,
death."
"People may think they're invincible and it wont happen to them,
but it only takes a split second for an incident to occur," he said.
In
the past 12 months, there have been 223 accidents involving pedestrians in
Melbourne's CBD One was fatal. Seven out of 10 resulted in injury.
Pedestrians make up almost a third all serious accidents in the city.
According to police data, the pedestrian was at fault in 56% of cases.
Just over half of the victims were male.
Morning and afternoon peaks are
the most dangerous times.

Shock....
I was appalled when I found that out.....
Should have guessed it would turn out this way....
A definite answer....
Wish that didn't come true.....
Again I have done another mistake.....
Shouldn't have put too much expectation....
End up he failed and ruined everything.......
Still Immature....
Yet I shall do nothing now....
Let time play its par.....
Sometime in the future when the condition is right......
Things may change.....
Otherwise....
Let It Be....

During the Dharma Function, we were chanting 父母恩重難報經(Sutra of the Deep Kindness of Parents).... As usual every first week of the month....
Thereafter, a Birthday celebration for all October Babies..... Which we never had before.....
There were only three of us, whose Birthdays fall in October i.e Me, Norwind and Colin....
Oh and Shi Fu actually gave each of us a mini 楞嚴經 (Shurangama Sutra)
Celebrating with Shi Fu and other Dharma Brothers and Sisters.... Feeling a bit awkward and embarassed (kinda???) haha
Newai my gratitude to Shi Fu and everyone.....
By the way.... Jue Guan Shi Fu has actually come back from Taiwan and now she's in Nan Tian Temple in Wollongong.... Hope to see her again in December..... And our current Shi Fu is Miao Neng Shi Fu.... and Yong Wei Shi Fu is now in Yarraville... (if someone wonders how everything's going so far... =p)

It's in Melbourne Central, close to Max Brenner.... Food Not bad... a bit pricy though....
Thanks a lot for the shout... =)
Melanie.... haha.... ex-chem/bio prac partner, ex-building mate, physiotherapist in training....
She was like a little girl 2.5 years ago.... kinda mature now.... a bit? lol

Holidays Part 3
Thursday, 2nd Oct
Part 3 of my holiday..... Not a good one I have to say....
It was a farewell dinner for Li Ping.... She's now off to the States, San Fransisco....
Li Ping..... met her last years..... BUT only the beginning of this year that we started talking and getting to know each other...... Not even a year and *boom* there it goes...... gone....
Short but memorable.... She's like a mentor (dats the most appropriate word?) to me.... know her for only a while and frankly I don't even knoe how we started to get along dat well.... I mean we've met each other for like 1. 5 years? BUT we never talked to one another until the beginning of this year.... Isn't that just weird?
Cause, Condition, Effect....... sometimes they are just unpredictable....
What a year.... Never had I so many parting before.....
First, Jue Guan Shi Fu
Second, Hao Sheng
Third, Lay Leng
Then, Ya Ling
Now, Li Ping
Who's next?
It's tough.....
有緣千里來相會, 無緣對面手難牽
Perhaps it's true.....

Birthday Session 1
So yeah just to continue from the previous post....
Am supposed to celebrate Sze Wey's Bday with Jin Sern..... so stayed awake after back from work....
about 10.30 pm.... Jin Sern called and thought might just catch up a while with Sze Wey, passed him his present and go to bed....
who knows something else was waiting.....
So, I went down the lift and halfway inside the lift..... something suddenly popped into my mind telling me to go through the carpark instead of straight to the lift.... but it was too late to do a detour lol .... so yea I kept going.
Saw Jin Sern there standing.... by himself.... feeling a bit weird and ackward..... I walked towards him... still asking him where Sze Wey was... Waiting in his car was the reply....
so we made our way to the Bourke St entrance and standing there were Kush with a cake and candle lit on..... CJ, Xin Yu, KK, Lo Yi, Jean, Pei Xian, James, Lynn, Sephine, Eevon, Robin, Alicia, and quite surprisingly Jacq!!!
I was like *speechless*
Last year Lay Leng, Jacq, PJ, Yit Ming, and Janet did exactly the same thing....
and this year I was still tricked by Mr Toh.... I never learn, do I? ha6
But newai it was a surprise and I appreciate it.....
Thanks a lot everybody..... My gratitude...
and Honourable Mention to Jin Sern.....
Thanks for organising this..... I am amazed and awed..... Truly appreciate your effort =p

Holidays Part 2
So.... the Next Morning... i.e. Tuesday 30th Sept.....
Planned to wake up at 7.... and yes I did wake up at 7...
BUT.....
I continued sleeping in until 11.... haha....
Newai.... woke up, brunch..... getting ready for WORK again.....
To Melbourne Central to get some stuff for Sze Wey before off for work.....
Oh, it's Sze Wey's Bday today newai....
Vu's still doing his first aid course.... but Karen could work in the morning.... which is pretty good...
Newai.... today's shift is 2-9.... just like my first shift when I started working....
Sounds better than yesterday, doesn't it?
Wait till you see the best part.....
It was alright when I came in..... BUT starting from 3 or 4 o'clock... store so busy....
Patients keep coming in.... Scripts keep arriving.... seriously Non Stop until we closed....
Ok... I was a bit exaggerating.... 15 min free interval between incoming batches? lol
Guess how many scripts we dispensed on that day? 415 scripts!!!!!
And I swear I did half of those.... haha... Quite unusual in our store.... but not others... lol
Felt like being a machine..... We should hire a technician in our store Hui.... ><
Reached home about 10.... wish could go to bed straight away..... but Up to celebrating Sze Wey's Bday with Jin Sern......
Ended up...........
Planned to wake up at 7.... and yes I did wake up at 7...
BUT.....
I continued sleeping in until 11.... haha....
Newai.... woke up, brunch..... getting ready for WORK again.....
To Melbourne Central to get some stuff for Sze Wey before off for work.....
Oh, it's Sze Wey's Bday today newai....
Vu's still doing his first aid course.... but Karen could work in the morning.... which is pretty good...
Newai.... today's shift is 2-9.... just like my first shift when I started working....
Sounds better than yesterday, doesn't it?
Wait till you see the best part.....
It was alright when I came in..... BUT starting from 3 or 4 o'clock... store so busy....
Patients keep coming in.... Scripts keep arriving.... seriously Non Stop until we closed....
Ok... I was a bit exaggerating.... 15 min free interval between incoming batches? lol
Guess how many scripts we dispensed on that day? 415 scripts!!!!!

Holidays Part 1
So Monday, 29th Sept was officially the first day of my so called one week "Mid Semester Break"
what an irony eh? Mid semester was like weeks ago... lol but still better than nothing... ha6
Newai guess how I spent my day?
Working!!!! Yes I was working last Monday.... Find that a bit ordinary?
Hmm....
It's a whole day shift.... 10am - 9pm... how does that sound? was covering for Vu... he was up to some first aid course or sth....
Newai it was not too bad though.... not too busy I mean.... like 325 scripts? pretty good...
And I did like 130 scripts? hmm... getting faster eh.... haha
I am amazed that I survived though... 11 hour work straight.... haha....
By the time I got home I was so exhausted that I went to bed straight after shower.... can't do much more.... ha6
Wonder how Vu survived his everyday wholeday shift?

Ein Trauriger Geburtstag....
Heute ist mein Geburtstag......
Sie kommten zu mir
Aber.....
Warum bin ich sehr traurig????
das verstehe ich nicht....
wenn ich an ihm denken..... bin ich trauriger und trauriger......
Diese traurigkeit...... Warum?
Es geht nicht......

Es geht nicht......
Ich weiß nicht, was soll es bedeuten,
Daß ich so traurig bin,
Ein Märchen aus alten Zeiten,
Das kommt mir nicht aus dem Sinn.
Die Luft ist kühl und es dunkelt,
Und ruhig fließt der Rhein;
Der Gipfel des Berges funkelt,
Im Abendsonnenschein.
