8 Jam Mulia

Tahap pendoaan untuk membantu orang yang baru meninggal :

Dalam 8 jam pertama sangatlah penting, jenazah sebisa mungkin jangan disentuh, karena almarhum akan merasa sakit bukan main. Bila sedang kesakitan dan ada sinar maha terang yang datang, dikuatirkan jadi terlewat karena konsentrasinya yang terpecah karena sakit.

Dalam 8 jam pertama harus banyak dibacakan mantra Mula Acarya.

1. Pasang foto Maha Guru / 3 Suciwan Sukhavati Loka.
   
   
2. Kalau Almarhum belum kui-i, langsung wakilkan kui-i dengan kirim fax ke Seattle (form di altar Seattle akan diberkati 3 hari oleh Maha Guru).
   
   
3. Terus-menerus bacakan mantra Mula Acarya. Mantra harus terdengar oleh Almarhum, sehingga Almarhum mengikuti/membatin
   (NB: orang yang baru meninggal, indra terakhir yang putus adalah telinga, sehingga masih bisa mendengarkan).
   
   
4. Selimuti jenazah (kepalanya tidak usah) dengan selimut WANG SHENG PEI (kain kuning beli di vihara, dan kita sembahyangi sehari-hari di altar, sehingga bila waktunya tiba dan digunakan, Wang Sheng Pei ini punya kekuatan melindungi Almarhum, arwah penagih dendam/hutang tidak bisa mendekat).
   Kenakan baju sehari-harinya (yang sering dipakai xiu fa oleh Almarhum, karena baju tsb. mempunyai kekuatan. Juga ikut sertakan japamala, kalung Zhen Fo Zong (bila punya). (NB: dengan kalung ini saja, Maha Guru sudah bisa menolong). Juga baringkan sertifikat bersarana di dadanya (bila sertifikat bersarana belakangan baru ditemukan, boleh disusul dengan membakar sertifikat tsb).
   
   
5. Beli serbuk JHI PAO SA di vihara. Tempelkan serbuk dengan memberi lem di kening, tenggorokan, dan dada almarhum disertai membaca mantra Mula Acarya, dan visualisasi Maha Guru berubah menjadi berkas sinar yang masuk ke kening, tenggorokan, dan dada Almarhum.
   Bila serbuk masih sisa, taburkan ke sekeliling peti. Lebih bagus lagi bila di campur ke tanah yang dipakai untuk tanah uruk mengubur peti.
   Bila di kremasi, cucilah dulu guci tempat tulang dgn TA PEI SHUI, bacalah TA PEI ZHOU. Masukkan tulang, lalu taburi dgn serbuk Jhi Pao Sa.
   
   
6. Masukkan PIL AMERTA ke mulutnya. Pil Amerta adalah pil yang telah diberkati dgn pembacaan banyak mantra, shg akan membantu Almarhum mengingat/menyerap mantra2.
   
   
7. Pasang lilin-lilin di keempat sudut pembaringan jenazah, supaya ada cahaya yang menerangi langkah Almarhum.
   
   
8. Bisikkan ke telinganya untuk menghilangkan segala ganjalan pikiran/hatinya, "Janganlah takut, jangan banyak pikiran. Dan yang terpenting, ikutlah dengan sinar yang maha terang!"
   
   
9. Pada saat sedang sekarat pun, terkadang penderita akan banyak melihat leluhur/saudara2nya yang telah meninggal terlebih dahulu. Pada saat meninggal, bila leluhur/saudara tsb datang menjemput, jangan ikut!
   Juga jangan masuk ke dalam pesawat, karena akan bereinkarnasi menjadi capung. Jangan masuk ke dalam kereta api, akan bereinkarnasi menjadi kelabang. Dan lain-lain, masih banyak lagi. Ada cahaya remang-remang atau cahaya terang, jangan ikut! Ada cahaya yang SANGAT terang: Nah, segera IKUT!!
   
   
10. Bila jenazah masih terbaring di RS, jangan terlalu lama didiamkan di ruang dingin. Segera pindahkan keluar. Juga jangan terlalu lama tidak dimasukkan ke peti. Waktu di masukkan ke peti, baca mantra Mula Acarya dan Ta Pei Zhou.

Catatan :

- Serbuk Jhi Pao Sa tidak saja digunakan utk orang yg meninggal. Serbuk ini juga bisa dipakai untuk org yang sekarat.

Caranya: serbuk disentuhkan ke kening, tenggorokan, dan dada, disertai visualisasi Maha Guru menjadi berkas sinar yang masuk ke kening, tenggorokan, dada, dan japalah mantra Mula Acarya. Serbuk juga disebarkan ke sekeliling ranjang.

- Orang yg baru meninggal, tidak boleh ditangisi. Sebaliknya, malah Almarhum harus kita bisiki untuk pergilah dengan tenang. Bila ditangisi, rohnya akan berat melangkah dan kemungkinan terjatuh ke alam samsara (bila karma buruknya berat, akan keburu ditangkap petugas neraka. Karena ragu-ragu pergi, kehilangan kesempatan mengikuti cahaya maha terang).

Walaupun Almarhum punya karma buruk, tapi bila bernasib baik (Ta Ye Wang Sen), akan membawanya terlahir di alam suci, walaupun mungkin pada tingkat paling rendah.

(NB: Sukhavati Loka mempunyai 9 tingkat. Tingkat paling tinggi ditempati Amitabha Buddha. Tingkat yang terendah masih kotor, bernama tingkat teratai).

- Bacakan Wang Sheng Zhou : untuk pelimpahan jasa menyeberangkan arwah penagih hutang Almarhum.

- Selagi kita hidup dan sehat, sewaktu bersadhana, banyak-banyaklah memohon pada saat Hui Xiang (pelimpahan jasa) supaya kelak kita 'pergi' dengan baik. Orang yang matinya tidak sengsara, pasti naik ke atas. Tidak setiap orang hokky bisa 'pergi' dengan baik.

Chinese Bone Weight Astrology of Yuan Tian Gang

袁天罡称骨算命法

The Bone Weight Astrology is invented by Yuan Tian Gang, a very famous astrologer of the Tang Dynasty.

It is one of the most simplified and popular Chinese astrology systems used to predict a person’s life fortune. This system can be found in the Chinese Almanac or Tong Sheng, under the “Weighing Bone Song”.

As the method is so easy to learn and does not require professional guidance, it is a “Do-It-Yourself Fortune-Telling”.






Simple calculation

The calculation is very simple. A weight is assigned to the lunar year, month, day and hour of your birth. As such data is the Bazi of a person, this system is also known as the “Weight of Bazi”.

The final Bazi weight is derived by totalling the different weights assigned to the lunar year, month, day and hour of your birth. The weight is measured in “liang” (tael) and “qian” (mace).

Under this system, the heavier the weight, the better one’s life will be. The maximum weight of 7.1 is supposed to be that of an emperor.

In the olden days, the Chinese traditionally have their baby’s bone weight calculated at birth so as to have an indication of the child’s fortune throughout his or her lifetime. The bone weight is also referred to as “the astrological weight at birth”.


Free online calculator

You just need to enter your date and time of birth for the online bone weight calculator to do the calculations. The calculator will only show the combined weight, solar birth date, lunar birth date*, and the readings.

For those who want to have a breakdown of the total weight, please refer to the charts provided here and calculate manually.

(Note: *The literal translation of the lunar birth date by the online calculator can be quite misleading to those who are not familiar with Chinese dates. For example, if the lunar date is indicated as “28 September”, it actually means “the 28th lunar day of the 9th lunar month”.)

Where to Go During an Earthquake

Where to Go During an Earthquake

Remember that stuff about hiding under a table or standing in a doorway? Well, forget it! This is a real eye opener. It could save your life someday.

EXTRACT FROM DOUG COPP'S ARTICLE ON 'THE TRIANGLE OF LIFE'

My name is Doug Copp. I am the Rescue Chief and Disaster Manager of the American Rescue Team International (ARTI ), the world's most experienced rescue team. The information in this article will save lives in an earthquake.

I have crawled inside 875 collapsed buildings, worked with rescue teams from 60 countries, founded rescue teams in several countries, and I am a member of many rescue teams from many countries. I was the United Nations expert in Disaster Mitigation for two years, and have worked at every major disaster in the world since 1985, except for simultaneous disasters.

The first building I ever crawled inside of was a school in Mexico City during the 1985 earthquake. Every child was under its desk. Every child was crushed to the thickness of their bones. They could have survived by lying down next to their desks in the aisles. It was obscene -- unnecessary.

Simply stated, when buildings collapse, the weight of the ceilings falling upon the objects or furniture inside crushes these objects, leaving a space or void next to them - NOT under them. This space is what I call the 'triangle of life'. The larger the object, the stronger, the less it will compact. The less the object compacts, the larger the void, the greater the probability that the person who is using this void for safety will not be injured. The next time you watch collapsed buildings, on television, count the 'triangles' you see formed. They are everywhere. It is the most common shape, you will see, in a collapsed building.

TIPS FOR EARTHQUAKE SAFETY

1) Most everyone who simply 'ducks and covers' when building collapse are crushed to death. People who get under objects, like desks or cars, are crushed.

2) Cats, dogs and babies often naturally curl up in the fetal position. You should too in an earthquake. It is a natural safety/survival instinct. You can survive in a smaller void. Get next to an object, next to a sofa, next to a bed, next to a large bulky object that will compress slightly but leave a void next to it.

3) Wooden buildings are the safest type of construction to be in during an earthquake. Wood is flexible and moves with the force of the earthquake. If the wooden building does collapse, large survival voids are created. Also, the wooden building has less concentrated, crushing weight. Brick buildings will break into individual bricks. Bricks will cause many injuries but less squashed bodies than concrete slabs.

4) If you are in bed during the night and an earthquake occurs, simply roll off the bed. A safe void will exist around the bed. Hotels can achieve a much greater survival rate in earthquakes, simply by posting a sign on the back of the door of every room telling occupants to lie down on the floor, next to the bottom of the bed during an earthquake.

5) If an earthquake happens and you cannot easily escape by getting out the door or window, then lie down and curl up in the fetal position next to a sofa, or large chair.

6) Most everyone who gets under a doorway when buildings collapse is killed. How? If you stand under a doorway and the doorjamb falls forward or backward you will be crushed by the ceiling above. If the door jam falls sideways you will be cut in half by the doorway. In either case, you will be killed!

7) Never go to the stairs. The stairs have a different 'moment of frequency' (they swing separately from the main part of the building). The stairs and remainder of the building continuously bump into each other until structural failure of the stairs takes place. The people who get on stairs before they fail are chopped up by the stair treads - horribly mutilated. Even if the building doesn't collapse, stay away from the stairs. The stairs are a likely part of the building to be damaged. Even if the stairs are not collapsed by the earthquake, they may collapse later when overloaded by fleeing people. They should always be checked for safety, even when the rest of the building is not damaged.

8) Get near the outer walls of buildings or outside of them if possible - It is much better to be near the outside of the building rather than the interior. The farther inside you are from the outside perimeter of the building the greater the probability that your escape route will be blocked.

9) People inside of their vehicles are crushed when the road above falls in an earthquake and crushes their vehicles; which is exactly what happened with the slabs between the decks of the Nimitz Freeway. The victims of the San Francisco earthquake all stayed inside of their vehicles. They were all killed. They could have easily survived by getting out and sitting or lying next to their vehicles. Everyone killed would have survived if they had been able to get out of their cars and sit or lie next to them. All the crushed cars had voids 3 feet high next to them, except for the cars that had columns fall directly across them.

10) I discovered, while crawling inside of collapsed newspaper offices and other offices with a lot of paper, that paper does not compact. Large voids are found surrounding stacks of paper.

The entire world is experiencing natural calamities so be prepared!

'We are but angels with one wing, it takes two to fly'

In 1996 we made a film, which proved my survival methodology to be correct. The Turkish Federal Government, City of Istanbul, University of Istanbul Case Productions and ARTI cooperated to film this practical, scientific test. We collapsed a school and a home with 20 mannequins inside. Ten mannequins did 'duck and cover,' and ten mannequins I used in my 'triangle of life' survival method. After the simulated earthquake collapse we crawled through the rubble and entered the building to film and document the results. The film, in which I practiced my survival techniques under directly observable, scientific conditions , relevant to building collapse, showed there would have been zero percent survival for those doing duck and cover.

There would likely have been 100 percent survivability for people using my method of the 'triangle of life.' This film has been seen by millions of viewers on television in Turkey and the rest of Europe, and it was seen in the USA, Canada and Latin America on the TV program Real TV.

Without listening or reading, simply by looking at the following self-explanatory photos, you can learn more than in a thousand words about how to protect yourself during a major earthquake...

If you are inside a vehicle, come out and sit or lie down next to it. If something falls on the vehicle, it will leave an empty space along the sides. See below:
