清海無上師以英文講於新加坡共修會 1994.09.28（影帶編號#446）
現今仍有很多疾病會造成無數的人死亡，每年大約有一千八百萬人死於各種疾病。因為有些人沒有小心保護上帝賜給我們的寶貴身體，來執行我們在人世間的使命，以達成某些目的，同時了悟我們的萬能力量。比方說，有些人抽菸過多、飲酒過量、吃太多肉，而使肉類中的細菌進入體內等等，這些致命因素再再使我們的生活變得很痛苦。
事實上我們可以活得更好。如果我們生活更有規律，更愛惜我們的身體，只吃滋養身體的食物，而不貪求口腹之欲，並且攝取適量，這樣當然就不會危害到我們的健康。大多數人吃素以後，都變得更健康了，你們很多人印心吃素以後都變得更加健康，是不是這樣？（大眾答：是）事實上醫院裡滿滿吃肉的人。毫無疑問，我們從這裡就可以得到證明。不僅因為素食本身有益健康，而且植物的振動力和我們的身體很協調，但是動物的振動力就不是那麼和諧、平靜。
事實上，要過簡單、健康的生活很容易，並不需要吃這麼多藥、打這麼多針。很多人把有毒的物質吃進體內，自己傷害自己。要是我們知道如何過一個簡單、營養、健康的生活，我們真的不需要常看醫生。這樣醫生就會有更多的假日， 雙方都可以保持健康。
能量越使用，
越能從宇宙中吸取更多
不用擔心工作辛苦；你們應該工作消耗能量，因為我們體內有七個「能量中心」可以從宇宙吸取能量。它們就像蓄電池一樣，宇宙力量會自動對它們充電，因此我們才能夠一直運轉這部「人身機器」。而且當我們打坐時，這個力量會更加充足。我們釋放越多，這個力量就進來越多，源源不斷，所以不用擔心。
不用擔心業障，不用擔心幫助別人會收到業障什麼的。如果別人需要幫忙，我們就幫忙。只有當我們想介入別人的思想，想控制他們，或是為了私人的目的，叫他們做我們要他們做的事，那時我們才會造業障。否則，如果我們有愛心，在別人需要時幫助他們，即使真的因此而收到業障也沒關係，一點關係都沒有，因為我們應該為彼此犧牲，應該一起生活在愛中，而不要去管業障。
我們必須時時保持肯定的能量，即使只是想法肯定，如果你看得到自己的靈體，就會發現你四周「氣」的形態、你的外貌和內在能量，都隨著你每一個肯定的思想而改變，變得更活力充沛、更健康。反之，若想法否定，只要想到任何負面、不好或痛苦的事，你周圍的「氣」也會立刻隨之變改。任何有靈力的人都看得到這種改變。這就是為什麼有些人可以看出別人的心思，因為當你靠近他們時，他們就看到了你的「氣」，看到與你身體相對應部位的能量在變改。
這種對應的能量，其外形看起來就像真的器官一樣。比方說，心臟看起來像這樣；如果有人把你的心臟拿走，那麼心臟的位置就空了，可是仍有某種類似心臟形狀的東西在那裡，那就是對應於心臟的能量。有時這個能量會有毛病，並不是真的心臟出毛病，那時就必須修理這個能量。只要思想肯定、生活簡單健康，你們就是自己最好的醫生。生活簡單，思想崇高，時時想法肯定；即使只是想而已，就足以改變你們的生活型態、日子和命運。所以要時時保持肯定，這樣就可以避免很多意外和疾病。
上帝一直在我們身邊，十方明師一直保護著我們，我們真正的並非孤獨地在這世界做事。我們每個人都有天使守護著，雖然看不見，但化身師父也一直守護著我們。就算你不相信天使和聖靈，也應該相信上帝的存在，否則不會有我們的存在。
多數的問題都是我們自己造的，來自我們否定的想法、負面的行動，以及受到別人否定力量的影響。有時我們去看病，醫生會說有些病是我們自己造成的。不是因為我們想生病，而是因為失去抵抗力。例如，平時你都不會過敏，但是每當你身體衰弱、心情沮喪、工作過度、精疲力竭時，就會過敏。你每天吃同樣的食物都不會過敏，但是有一天就過敏了，很可能是因為那時你的抵抗力很弱，免疫系統暫時故障了。然而只要你的想法肯定，病很快就好了。
萬一如果免疫系統故障、失靈，而且很難修復的話，那時就很糟糕，生死難卜了。所以要儘量保護自己的免疫系統，不要讓它故障。身、口、意要保持肯定，以維護你們的免疫系統，這很簡單做到。光是思想肯定，對你們就已經有莫大的幫助。事實上當你們精進修行時，有時會感覺不到肉體的存在，是不是這樣？你們有這種體驗嗎？（同修：有）感覺很輕鬆，對嗎？就像你在開車，但實際開車的人不是你，而是別人，你根本不用費力。這就是我們輕鬆地生活在這個物質世界的方法，那時我們可以用更輕鬆的方式做很多事，而不再覺得精疲力盡。我們打坐越多，感覺越好，而且工作越快，沒問題。
你們也要儘量把這個消息傳播給世人，拯救他們脫離苦難。儘量安慰他們，告訴他們這個好消息：只要修習這個古老的智慧法門，和自己內在的天國、內在的佛性溝通，他們就會過得更輕鬆、更偉大、更快樂。當他們還在世時，不會覺得如此痛苦、精疲力竭、心情鬱悶和寂寞。這是拯救人類的唯一良方。雖然看起來好像有很多災難降臨這個世界，但事實上，我不認為世界會這麼快就毀滅。也許某些方面、某些人會滅亡，但是有道德、善良的人會留下來照顧下一代。而且有你們打坐、共修、默禱時所發出的肯定力量的幫助，這個世界會比我們期望的更好，所以我希望你們把這個好消息傳播給世人。
回歸正當的生活方式
一個人也可以產生很大的改變。如果你真正相信自己的美意、相信自己所做的事是對的，你就會影響別人；但是如果你不相信，別人就會影響你。因此要做個個性堅強的人，擇善固執，不要讓別人動搖你，因為這世上好的典範很少。所以要讓自己成為好榜樣，盡力做好每一件事，這樣別人就會知道：你因為修行而變得更好，你真的對社會很有幫助。這就是你們進步的方法，這就是你們幫助別人的方法，也是我們挽救世界免於毀滅的方法。因為世界上有很多自我毀滅的毒品和武器，以及人們的生活方式、大家相互染來染去，這些都可能會造成世界末日，毫無疑問，根本不用觀測天象也會知道。
如果我們愛這個星球，我們認為這是個美麗的地方；它真的很美麗，要形成一個像現在這麼漂亮的地球，需要百千萬億年的時間，所以我們也該有所貢獻。如果能夠的話，我們就把地球修復好。當然，如果我們已經盡力了，而世界末日仍然到來，那就順其自然！可是只要能修理，我們就修理。所以盡力傳播這個好消息，讓世人回歸自然正當的生活方式，也就是吃素、有道德、持戒、生活簡單和思想肯定，這樣我們的世界就沒問題，而且人類很可能還會在更好的環境下再生活數千年。現在有兩種選擇：一個是全部滅亡；另一個是生活各方面和靈性都向前邁進。未來真的掌握在我們手中，沒有外星人能夠介入，沒有上帝懲罰我們，也沒有佛菩薩加持我們，只有靠我們自己作選擇。要作出明智的選擇，這樣我們才會成長。

Master Says

(Originally in English) Videotape #446
Nowadays many sicknesses still kill millions of people. About 18 million a year die from different diseases because some of us do not take precautions to guard our precious body, which is given by God to do some mission on earth for some purpose and also to realize our almighty power. For example, we smoke too much, we drink too much, we eat too much flesh and invite all these bacteria from the flesh into our systems, etc. All these killing factors make our lives a miserable time. Actually, we could live a better life if we organize more, if we appreciate our body more. And if we eat just nutritious food for our body, and not eat because of the taste, and eat just a reasonable amount, then of course, our health will not be so much endangered. Most of the vegetarian people become healthier. Many of you became healthier after taking initiation and switching to a vegetarian diet. Is that not so? (Audience: Yes!) Actually, the hospital is full of meat-eating people. No problem. We can see the proof there. Not only because the vegetarian diet is healthy in itself, but also because the vibrations are very harmonious to our body whereas the vibrations of the animals are not that harmonious, not so peaceful.
Actually it is very easy to live a simple and healthy life. There is no need for so much medicine, no need for so many injections. Many of us harm ourselves because we bring poisonous substances into our body. If we know how to live a simple, nutritious, healthy life, we really don’t need doctors so much. The doctor can have more holidays and both stay healthy.
The More Energy We Use,
the More We Receive from the Universal Power
Don’t worry about hard work; you should work and spend your energy because in our bodies, there are about seven chakras which can draw in the energy from the universe. They are just like a battery automatically charged by Universal Power. That’s why we can run our machine all the time. And when we meditate, this power is even in more abundance. The more we give, the more it comes in; it will never stop, so we don’t worry.
Don’t worry about karma; helping people and taking the karma and all that. If people need help, you help. It’s only when we try to interfere with the people’s minds, like trying to control them, or trying to tell them to do what we want them to do for a selfish purpose, then we will create karma. Otherwise, if we love people and we want to help them in their time of need, even if we truly get karma from them, it doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter at all because we should sacrifice for each other. We should live with each other in love and don’t mind the karma.
We must always keep positive energy because even if you think positive, even just thinking positive, if you can see your body, you will see each positive thought will change the pattern of the aura, change your outlook, and change your energy inside. It becomes more over-flowing and healthy. But if you think negative, just think anything negative, bad or miserable, and then your pattern changes immediately. Any psychic person can see this. That’s why some people can read your mind, because when you come in, they can see your aura. They can see the pattern change in the energy counterpart of your body. The energy counterpart is the shape of energy which looks like the shape of your real organ. For example, your heart is like this. Suppose someone took your heart away and that heart-place is empty, but still, it has the shape of your heart in it - something is there. That is the energy counterpart of the heart. Sometimes this energy counterpart has problems, not the real heart, and so they have to fix it. You are the best doctor for yourself if you think positive, live a healthy and simple life -- simple living and high thinking. Always think positive. Even just thinking changes your pattern of living, changes your day and changes your fortune. So always try to keep being positive. Then a lot of accidents, a lot of illnesses can be avoided.
God is always around you. Masters from the ten directions are always protecting you. It is true that we are not left alone in this world to do all things ourselves. We are always protected by angels, everyone of us. And we are always guarded by the Master’s spirit even though we don’t see it. Even if you don’t believe in angels and spirit, you must believe there is a God who exists. Otherwise, we don’t exist.
Most of the problems are our own making because we think negative, we act negative and we let the negative influence from the people affect us. Sometimes, if you go to see the doctor, they will tell you that some of the diseases are self-made. Not because you want the disease only but you are run down in resistance. For example, like an allergy. Sometimes you never get it, but every time you get run down, you are depressed, you are overworked, you are exhausted, then the allergy will come. You eat the same food every day and have no allergy. But one day, you have it. It’s because, at that time, probably your resistance is very low. Your defense system temporarily broke down or something like that; whereas if you think positively, the disease will also go quickly.
Sometimes the defense system is so run down, it’s like broke down, and it’s very difficult to fix it. At that time, then it’s too bad; either we live or we die. So try to take care of your system and don’t let it break down. Try to take care of your system by acting positive, thinking positive, talking positive. That is very simple. Even just thinking positive is already a tremendous help to you. Actually, when you practice very hard, sometimes you don’t feel the body. Is that not so? You have this experience? (Yes.) You feel very light, right? Like you are driving but it is not you who drives; it is someone else. No effort. That’s how we achieve effortlessness in the physical dimension. And then we can do many things in a lighter way and we don’t feel so exhausted any more. The more we meditate, the better we feel, and the faster we work, and no problem.
You must also try to pass on the news for our fellow beings to rescue them from their misery. Try to comfort them and bring them the good news that they could be lighter, greater, happier in their lives if they practice the age-old wisdom, getting in contact with the kingdom of God within themselves, with the Buddha-nature within themselves. Then they don’t feel so miserable, worn-out or blocked, and lonely in this world. That’s the only cure for mankind. Actually it looks like so many disasters are coming to the world, but I don’t feel like the world is going to end so quickly. Maybe it will end in some parts; maybe there will be a great destruction for different people, but the virtuous people, the blameless persons, will be preserved for the next generation. And with the help of the positive energy from you during your meditation, during the group gathering, during your silent prayers time, our world is preserved in a greater degree than we might have hoped for. And that’s why I hope that you spread more good news to people.
Go Back to the Righteous Way of Life
One person makes a lot of difference. If you truly believe in your goodness, in what you are doing, you will influence other people. But if you don’t believe, they will influence you. Then try to make a strong person out of your personality. Whatever you believe is good, stick to it and don’t let other people make you waver because a good example in this world is rare. So make yourself a good example. Try your best in everything so that people will know that, because you practice, you have become better. And you really are being useful for society. That’s how you improve. That’s how you help other people. That’s how we rescue the world from the great destruction that may be coming because of a lot of self-destructive drugs and weapons, the way we live our life and the way we infect each other. It could be the end of the world. There is no doubt about it. No need to see the moon, the sun or anything. If we love this planet— we think it’s a beautiful place, which it is—it takes billions, trillions of years to make one until it is beautiful like today, so beautiful like this. So we have to also make a contribution. If we can, we fix it. Of course after all, if we try our best and still the end of the world comes, then let it be. But if we can fix it, we do it. So spread the good news and let the people go back to the natural way of life, the righteous way of life; that is, being vegetarian, being virtuous, keeping precepts, living a simple life and positive thinking. Then our world will be no problem. And we will probably live a few more thousand years in a better condition. There are two choices now: one is total destruction; another is to go ahead with progress in all ways of life, including spiritual. And the future is in our hands, really. There are no aliens who can do anything about it. There is no God who punishes us. There is no Buddha who blesses us. It’s only ourselves. We have to make a choice. That’s how we grow: by making good choices.
