The Fearless Ones

It’s only 2 months plus before our Big Tiger Brother returns to its lair.

The year-end period and the arrival of the new year are the peak periods for my profession.

My registration was opened 2 nights ago and I received close to 300 requests for my services.

There are indeed many people suffering from afflictions and pain. The only difference lies in the degree of severity.

I will try my best to see you before the Jade Rabbit comes bouncing in for the New Year.

It is my wish to solve your troubling woes, rid your body and soul of outdated mindsets and habits, and carve a brand new path for you in the new year.

Almost all of the emails I received are polite. I place huge emphasis on the teachings from The Four Lessons of Liao Fan. Therefore I am more than willing to spend time to teach those who are stingy with their Thank-you, or slipshod in their email writings.

Even though we may never meet, at least I have made you aware of your failings as a human being.

Do not get mesmerised by auspicious ornaments and run away from the flaws in your characters. There is always a root cause for bad affinities, family disharmony, unappreciative bosses, unsupportive customers, etc.

December is the school holiday season and many Singaporeans love to travel overseas with their families. Many clients requested for alternative consultation dates due to their holiday plans, after my first round of email replies.

I am sorry. Due to my long waiting list, it is not my practice to reschedule.

Some were more proactive and told me they would try their best to make arrangements with their tour guides, to have the Zoom consultation with me.

I admire their perseverance. However I choose to fight battles which I am confident in. I cannot wait till then for you to see if that can be done, given the many anxious registrants waiting for my reply.

I worked through the registration forms all night and responded to the first 100 of them chronologically. Some were rather amusing. One applicant told me she had added the books to her shopping cart and had not checked out yet, but she still hoped to get an appointment with me.
😂😂🤣

No worries. You can take your time to consider the books. I am not in any hurry.

My profession is really about removing obstacles and topping up good fortunes for you.

I like to serve people, who are serious in learning the Dharma, and help them clear their path of obstacles and boost their fortunes. I create windows of affinities for them to mend their ways, so that their hearts can abide by the Buddha’s way.

To cut off all sufferings, a Buddhist practitioner must learn the Noble Eightfold Path:
Right understanding (Samma ditthi)
Right thought (Samma sankappa)
Right speech (Samma vaca)
Right action (Samma kammanta)
Right livelihood (Samma ajiva)
Right effort (Samma vayama)
Right mindfulness (Samma sati)
Right concentration (Samma samadhi)

My Root Guru Living Buddha Lian Sheng expounded the The Sūtra In Which The Buddha Speaks Of Amitābha Buddha and explained what is meant by Improper Livelihood:

“Sometimes, divination of fortunes is not totally bad. As long as the underlying intention is to lead sentient beings towards kindness, into the door of Buddhism, it is considered virtuous. But if the divination is only about fortunes and nothing is mentioned about the Right Path, that is improper livelihood.”

“This Noble Eighfold Path is known as Noble Eightfold Practice. They are like eight vessels sailing towards the Right Path. They can cross the river of afflictions, to the opposite shore of life and death, arriving at true nirvana.“

May everyone learn the ferocity and diligence of Big Brother Tiger. With one claw and one pounce at a time, let us all strive towards the noble Livelihood! 🐅🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♂️
