如何了解他人信仰,一则很有思考帮助的分析。

如何了解他人信仰,一则很有思考帮助的分析。
------------------------------------------

当然,一段日子没有提笔写写信仰/宗教文章。原因就是还没有一种很具代表性和思考型的题材。
今天和一位老兄谈起老兄对基督教的看法。觉得可以在这里分析出很多很有帮助的讯息。
当然我不会提及是哪位老兄,大家自行猜测。文章我呢写得很写实,很实在,字里行间透露很多一般人无法思考到的问题。
还有的是,包含一些老兄以外的问题,我个人相信很多有心人可以在这里思考很多意想不到的讯息。

佛教道教不是一样的吗?
相信大部分人,尤其是把电视机讯息当成绝对消息资源的话,那么会很相信这种相似全球化效应的调调。
到底是龙和蛇混呢?还是真如双孢?又或是另一种讨好听众的大锅饭政策呢?
如果真是一样,为什么不统一?我们不如来看看。
实在一点,理论方面不多说。就看生意人怎么说。
一个从殡仪馆服务人士的回应自然就能明白。
殡仪馆服务人士说的很明,佛教仪式与道教仪式不一样。
而且是很不一样。
倘若是一样的话,干嘛不搞在一起,不是人人说宁可有多好过少?
死亡仪式不是拿来胡搞的,乱搞得人轻者被贬重者更可能被扁。
所以,想糊弄的人到最后弄死亡仪式时,不一样,还是不一样的。
殡仪馆服务人士到最后还是得专业的告诉人们,佛道皆是不同仪式,道理简单。
所以大众不用刻意想尽办法来搞佛道结合,本质不一样就是事实。
看不明白?问问殡仪馆服务人士。

佛教徒与道教徒的服饰颜色。
办往生者仪式时,佛教徒与道教徒被劝为以不同的服饰颜色出席。
原因不是佛陀告诉你他爱白,也不是太上老君告诉你阁下必定要穿黑色。
而是殡仪馆服务定做,或是大众市场的接受。根本没一定的绝对理论。
换句话说,台湾,马来西亚,大陆,香港等地,标准全然没有一个相同。所以颜色绝对吗?
不见得~~倘若有人偏见单一颜色,是或不是自己看到这边自然明白。

净土宗与泰国佛教。
净土宗,冠为华人佛教界最普遍,最多。当然净土宗不旧也不很新。
泰国佛教和净土宗两者不一样,一个大乘个一个小乘。有心人自行了解。
对我个人而言,对净土宗一点都不陌生。
任何源自净土宗的经文套路各自之间不会相差太大。3问讯/3拜+念经+回响+问讯/拜。
很standard.念的经不外是 一大堆名单,所谓净土的地方样貌。
很多人念些什么自己不懂,纯粹想交差。
很多不大明白的人,以为念了就一大堆神奇超能力。把经文当作法术不见得有心细读。
这种大师很多,很普遍。甚至一些穿着海青者认为念多是福。
而真正懂得解经的基本上都是一些讲经说法的程度的大师。这种真的不多。


讲到这里,就讲讲老兄的问题啦。很有趣的。当然希望可以帮助到很多人。让更多人可以学习。
真正的学习,不是那种假假的。有人心知肚明。

一个女生,被称为带领小团队,讲的所谓圣经观点很不被认同。
好,很简单。有道教人士自称要到基督徒的小团队学习。到了之后,认为这个团队是所谓开放式的。
所以必须接纳他人与自己的意见。而,这位小姐被称为带领小团队的,被认为观点不合理。
而且,这位小姐所谓“带领团队”被放大来称。问题就在这里。
这位小姐被老兄“放大来看”,老兄认为小姐既然是带领人物应该可以容纳老兄的意见。
更何况,这位小姐讲了老兄:错
老兄说这位小姐不够开明。
而且老兄说小姐还给了一票的所谓证据。
暂且不看老兄有没有性别歧视。
小姐可以带领小团队,当然是有知识的人,不然老兄学些什么。
既然小姐可以带领,又有知识,而且还拿得出4个证据。
那么老兄本身自然什么都没啦。
老兄其实很可爱的,很直,直到有点好笑。
因为老兄说 doesn't feel good, 所以以为这个就是基督徒的问题。然后他就认为接下来小姐讲的所有一切都是废话。

问题就在这里。
如果今天我出席佛教朋友的团聚,自己可否在一票佛教朋友面前说了自己的观点,而认为别人不可以反对,也不可以给我他们的证据。
因为我会 doesn't feel good~。
请问下,佛陀是来搞  feel good 吗?
学佛是来 feel good的?
 doesn't feel good是因为自己唯自己独尊呢?还是都是别人宗教建立时忘了建立让我们如何去feel good?
feel good换句话,低级一点来讲:爽。
这种人其实蛮可怜的,因为他的宗教思想是该宗教应该来让本老子feel 一 feel 看看 good 不 good。
如果有人认为这种想法是很正确的话,那么这位老兄自己本身可以坐在神台,因为从来没有宗教是拿来服务民众,大家一起feel good.
佛陀没有,太上老君也没有,更不用讲是耶稣。
而有人认为不爽,其实是这个人自己认为他自己才是宗教。
可见,人的自以为中心是多么可笑。尽然认为耶稣说的话应该给本少爷feel good,不然我不爽。所以小姐代表了本少爷认识的所谓基督教。
应当给本少爷feel good,就算我讲错了,本少爷的面子重要,耶稣也必须给脸。

看到这里,犹如一则不知收敛的少爷脾气。
想一想,我可以要求佛陀来给我feel good吗?
想一想,我可以要求一个跳童跳个神来给我认同我吗?
好笑吧。
我个人认为,不管这位小姐带领什么宗教团体,这位老兄倘若被不认同的话,基本上他也会不能接受。
因为不是什么宗教。
是老兄要的被认同感,加上老兄的脑袋就是真理,几乎犹如活佛。
补上一句,自称道教团体的一贯道道亲,各佛教会的团体,都不会建立来讨好人。是人应当降低自己身份去学习。
学习谦卑就是让有知识的人分享。然后学习。当觉得别人不谦卑,自己是否唯自己独尊。

另一个问题。圣经一些东西doesn't make sense.太不合理了!!
如果讲这个话的人是佛教徒或道教徒的话,那么这两者肯定是假信徒。
不是假信徒的话,就是表面信徒,又或是有限信徒,又或是其实就是一塌糊涂,什么都搞不懂。
为何如此说。
很简单。
先看看一边简单的圣经被认为不合理的地方,比如 人是上帝创造的。
人是上帝创造的吗?还是是猴子变来的?
我们看看佛教和道教倘若用这种标准来看的话,合理吗?

佛陀闻名故事,割肉喂鹰。老鹰还和佛陀老大理论。不知和老鹰理论又否合理?难道如此又很make sense?
佛教界甚至认为人是天音人而来。甚至是一群不知什么咚咚又没什么特别人样的一团,然后吃吃吃出个人样来。那么有些人很幸运,吃出个刘德华那么帅。
请问那么很合理吗?难道如此又很make sense?

再说,道教闻名神明三太子。
众所周知,三太子最后是莲藕弄成的。不如叫个道教闻名大师来搞一些莲藕人不?请问莲藕人很合理吗?难道如此又很make sense?

如果各自皆有不合理,不make sense的话。那么为什么有些人可以如此看不见自己的不合理而放大他人的不合理?
双重标准?
还是这些人知识有限,智慧混沌.混得可怜?
不如单刀直入。此种人在还没听别人意见时已经自己定了一套标准。
认为全部人都是这种路线。当自己听不明白时自然断定他人的不合理。
当让这种基本上不知道自己的宗教知识。这种人的宗教知识是有限的。局限认为自己独尊。
为何如此说,因为道教佛教皆有被认年认为不合理 的地方。而有限的道教佛教人士基本无视自己的局限,也不见得愿意自己好好跟师傅学习。
当然这不是一竹杆打倒整船人,而是多到数不清。因为太多 cosmetic buddhist and cosmetic taoism。
基督徒不用幸灾乐祸,我这里也一样讲。基督徒要好好学习圣经与神学,所以该为小姐应该很认真学习。而老兄,顶多只是个挂名表面道教徒,原因?是:毫无见证。

再来,圣经的不合理被提及是直接到好处。straight to the point。
比如说,一些人其实很想评论基督教,但是可能碍于面子或不大想当黑脸。自然就希望有人开炮当先锋。
恰到好处时自然符合一句:straight to the point。以一种终于 将了一军 的快感。
其实这种人真的很可悲,和开炮人士无两样,但是又想发表。
和以上的观点一样,自身宗教不合理之处视若无睹,发现他人有一点好像自己觉得不合理不明白之处快快枪上上膛,等着开炮。又一个 hypocrite.
这种人当然有,简称 假冒伪善。

另一个:不是个人造业个人担吗?为什么基督教讲耶稣是独一天堂?可恶极了~!
个人造业个人担,很普遍啦。几乎华人都懂。问题就在这里。这种根深蒂固的所谓道理导致一种现象,那就是全人类个人造业就个人担,不能帮的。就连神帮也是可疑的。
可怜就在这里,华人神明,亚洲神明都一般灌输这种思想,个人造业个人担。所以不帮你是合理,帮你是你的福气。
也可以如此想,问题就在这里,什么神都可以帮,唯独耶稣的激烈方式很难理解。
如何难理解?所谓业章啦什么的一切都必须靠一大堆被认为的仪式还是修行来认为才可以消除。
叫一个佛教或道教徒去问问佛陀:我现在信你,所有业章归给你可以吗?
如果可以的话,“个人造业个人担” 这句话就是谎言,华人就被骗了几千年。
“个人造业个人担” 这句话不是谎言,甚至是绝对的话。一个佛教或道教徒去问问佛陀:我现在信你,所有业章归给你可以吗?
佛陀的standard answer 会是 sorry dude, fix it yourself. I may offer you some idea~~
那么耶稣有什么特别?特别就在耶稣自愿被钉十字架,因为上帝要将全部归为耶稣信徒的人的罪都归在耶稣身上,以这种方式来为人赎罪。人就罪 免了。
如此对一个佛教或道教徒来说很不make sense,甚至可恶。因为耶稣的十架做了佛陀也做不到的功效。
更可恶的是,耶稣用命来铺个天堂路有何不可。
有人觉得可恶的话,不如自己去问问自己的神明:我现在信你,我所有罪归给你可以吗?
佛陀可恶?耶稣可恶?还是人自己可恶?
脑袋是拿来思考的。

再来一个,一切都是 uncertainty.
人如此很可怜。因为不懂一个哲学观:我思故我在。
这种人倘若是无神论,一切都是未知。那么他本身是个未知。一生最了不起的就是什么都未知。
而这种未知的人,基本上有很多矛盾。世界的一切都是一种反映,反映一些人类以外的是。而未知者形同盲者,最后只有在未知中余生。
因为这种未知者基本上什么都不懂,因为未知,懂的也是不肯定,反正未知。
而如果这种人是佛教/道教人士。
更加可怜,一手叉香,脑袋把佛陀的众神明的认识皆是未知。如果佛陀是属于uncertainty的个体。佛学基本形如可有可无bed time story.
所以未知在信徒心中存在的话,基本上证明了信徒,根本,是根本,很贴切的根本没有学习。就算佛说万物皆空,他本身还不是uncertainty.
所以不要乱用。
基督徒也是,自己想想。
而老兄呢,基本上搞不清楚什么是属于uncertainty,什么是certain.信佛,信道,认为一切是uncertainty.那么道教神明在老兄论点而言属于uncertainty.
那么,道教可悲咯。老兄他想不通,看不惯基督徒那么的certain,尤其是对耶稣的救恩。几乎可以说是jealous到不得了。
如果基督徒的certain不能被认同,道教/佛教却能很certain,要么老兄讲骗话,要么老兄根本就一头雾水。

然后还有,christian 很fake .teaching damn fake.
这个很容易就能明白。意思就是基督教很假。所有证据都很假。
超级容易明白。
就是老兄以道教/佛教的观点认为基督教很假。因为基督教提供证据。
那么,老兄本身毫无道教佛教证据却不显得“很假”?反而有证据却“很假”?
看见了吧,有心人什么都能讲。自己假无视。他人却一定假。
另一种可悲。假在那里?是什么假?典型一个:莲藕人



还有吗?当然,不过太浪费时间。有心人自己要多学习。多反省。不然问题全然都是人家又很合理吗?
本人对佛教道教一点都不陌生。几乎很熟系。
本人对基督教也不见得是双手开开等着抱。
想。思考。学。认识。谦卑。
如果本人不练习谦卑根本不可能接受耶稣。

记得放弃佛接受耶稣时是流着泪,超级感动。而且还是自己一个人独自接受。
完全没有人有机会洗本人的脑。
有人说耶稣假?基督不合理?很正常。我的脑袋就是打通这个才接受耶稣的。
不然?我还在那里和老兄一样闹make 不make sense.

不然?本人当佛教徒道教几容易,信耶稣?难咯。。。。不容易啊。
还有希望这篇文章可以帮助人们用正确的态度认识宗教,信仰。不要那么模模糊糊了。
这种文章,没有认真学习的人,如何写得出。


本人感恩上帝用一般众生觉得不make sense的决定性方式赐下救恩:耶稣
倘若有人要对号入座,很好。那样可以学习的很快。
思考我的观点,赚到。
不思考我的观点,没什么赚到。

本人就是希望也发愿放弃一切为得着耶稣。

约翰一书
4:9  神差他独生子到世间来,使我们藉着他得生, 神爱我们的心在此就显明了。 
4:10  不是我们爱 神,乃是 神爱我们,差他的儿子,为我们的罪作了挽回祭,这就是爱了。




你自己保重。耶稣没损失,佛陀也是。你的生命。你的信仰。

Do's and don'ts of washing your car


Do you ever wondering why US and some automotive leading country is working hard on car detailing but we are hard to spot this nature in our local land?
But we still have car detailer around here. Check below useful information for doing detailing work(information from consumer report organization US):


Do's and don'ts of washing your car
FAQs on the do-it-yourself car wash 
For many vehicle owners, the weekend act of washing a car by hand is a therapeutic act as beneficial for the person's state of mind as to the vehicle's appearance. That's good, because frequent washing is also the best way to maintain a new-car finish. But as simple as washing your car may seem, there are some things to watch for so that you don't accidentally scratch or degrade the finish. Here are some basic car-washing tips.

When should I wash the car?

Don't... wait for a layer of crud to accumulate before washing. Dead bugs, bird droppings, and chemicals from the atmosphere all leach acids that can strip away wax and eventually eat into your car's paint. If left too long, they can cause damage that requires sanding and repainting the area to correct.
Do... wash off dead bugs, bird droppings, and tree-sap mist as soon as possible. Other than this, a weekly car wash will keep the finish in its best shape. In addition, if you live in an area that suffers from acid rain, rinse your vehicle off after a period of rainy weather. Otherwise, acidic chemicals in the rainwater will be left on the surface after the droplets have evaporated, leaving a mark that can permanently mar the paint.

What kind of products should I use?

Don't... use household cleaning agents like hand soap, dish washing detergent, or glass cleaner on the paint. These aren't formulated for use on a car's paint and may strip off the protective wax.
Do... use a dedicated car-wash product, which is milder and specifically designed for use on automotive paint. Apply the suds with a large, soft natural sponge or a lamb's-wool mitt. See our car wax buying advice for tips on all types of waxes.
Grease, rubber, and road-tar deposits picked up from the road often accumulate around the wheel wells and along the lower edge of the body. These can be stubborn to remove and may require a stronger product, such as a bug-and-tar remover. Use a soft, nonabrasive cloth to remove these deposits, as they can quickly blacken your sponge.
Use a separate sponge to clean the wheels and tires, which may be coated with sand, brake dust, and other debris that could mar the car's finish. Mild soap and water may work here; if not, a dedicated wheel cleaner may be required. Be sure the cleaner is compatible with the type of finish (paint, clear-coat, chrome, etc.) used on the wheels. A strong formula intended for mag wheels, for instance, can damage the clear coat that's used on the wheels that come on today's cars. To be on the safe side, choose a cleaner that's labeled as safe for use on all wheels.

Are there any general guidelines I should follow when washing a car?

Don't... wash your car when the body is hot, such as immediately after driving it or after it has been parked in direct sunlight for awhile. Heat speeds the drying of soap and water, making washing more difficult and increasing the chances that spots or deposits will form.
Don't move the sponge in circles. This can create light, but noticeable scratches called swirl marks. Instead, move the sponge lengthwise across the hood and other body panels. And don't continue using a sponge that's dropped on the ground without thoroughly rinsing it out. The sponge can pick up dirt particles that can scratch the paint.
Do... rinse all surfaces thoroughly with water before you begin washing to remove loose dirt and debris that could cause scratching. Once you begin, concentrate on one section at a time, washing and rinsing each area completely before moving on to the next one. This ensures that you have plenty of time to rinse before the soap dries. Start at the top, and then work your way around the car.
Work the car-wash solution into a lather with plenty of suds that provide lots of lubrication on the paint surface. And rinse the sponge often. Using a separate bucket to rinse the sponge keeps dirt from getting mixed into the sudsy wash water.
When rinsing, use a hose without a nozzle and let the water flow over the car from top to bottom. This creates a sheeting action that helps minimize pooling of water.

How should I dry the car when I'm done?

Don't... let the car air dry, and don't expect a drive around the block to do an effective job. Either will leave watermarks, which in areas with hard water are the minerals left after evaporation. In addition, don't use an abrasive towel or other material that can leave hairline scratches in the paint.
Do... use a chamois (natural or synthetic) or soft terry towels. If you choose towels, you may need several. It's best to blot the water up instead of dragging the towel or chamois over the paint. The drying process can be speed ed up by using a soft squeegee to remove most of the water on the body, but be sure the rubber is pliable and that it doesn't pick up bits of dirt that can cause scratches.

Why car detailing is so important?


Why car detailing is so important?

This is very simple. We are able to see that Car detailing term use in car industry that focusing on car maintenance. But not in this local land, our lovely Malaysia. In order to make a profession in car detailing, the profession needs to carry with skill profession, knowledge profession ,enough of patient attitude and passionate of doing the detailing work.
The important of Keeping your car clean and the finish looking good can also mean higher resale value when it comes time to get a new car. All else being equal, a car with faded paint and a dingy overall look sells for 10-20 percent less than an otherwise identical vehicle that just looks nicer.

So is detailing job a car wash for you only? In fact it is an investment to keep your car in better condition for your own car resell value.

Why is Coating necessary? Regardless of glass coat or a waxing.


Why is Coating necessary? Regardless of glass coat or a waxing.
(From Sierra Glow)
Coating for automobiles started with wax. Historically people in the olden Europe started to use wax, such as pine oil to protect the wooden surface of horse carriage from rain, wind and dust. Varnish and tree resin took the place of pine oil. In the modern society wax from Carnauba palm oil have been used. Wax technologies kept evolving and found the use as effective material to protect steel plate from getting rusty and to give shine to the surface. Initially Carnauba oil was used to make wax. Later on organic solvents technology has developed and artificial paraffin started to be used to make wax as paraffin oil can create layer on the surface when applied on it. What does it mean? By making an oil film, it helps reduce prism activity of sun light, and as a result, it makes hard to find small scratches on the surface by the naked eyes and can maintain the shine. Thus, wax made of paraffin has been indispensable for automobiles.

Molecule of Paraffin is a monomer, which means paraffin has relatively small molecule weight and big cluster. This property means that paraffin tends to be dissolved by water and vulnerable against fluctuation of heat.

Lately, polymers or compound of iso-paraffin and acrylic silicone started to have been used for coating of the automobile paint surface. As this polymer has large molecular weight and is composed from many chemicals, they are strong against water and other atmospheric elements, which mean they can last much longer than wax. They can penetrate into paints cluster holes which wax can’t penetrate into.

But the other important point is that paraffin used in wax contains abrasive particles to get rid of dust in the air. It means one time waxing gives scratch of approximately 0.02 to 0.05 micron to the paint and repeated waxing may gives the paint up to maximum of 0.25 micron scratch equivalent to the grit of abrasive paper No.1500. Subsequently the paint begins to lose the shine. It is therefore desirable not to give waxing unlimited to the paint surface. From the view point of the above it is advisable to take the importance of coating of the paint surface with polymer or sealant into the consideration.

Currently, glass coating programs* are getting popular more and more for the coating of the paint in the market. They are comprised of silicate dioxide and other materials. When applied on the paint surface, silicate dioxide reacts with hydrogen in the air and leaves the silicon layer on the paint surface. This silicon is 100 % inorganic material, which means immune to oxidation, and has static electricity prevention effect and makes the paint surface extremely smooth, which functions to keep dust and soil away from the paint surface.
