Hi Bros,
Seems so many people believe in Thai amulets... so I wonder if I can ask how we can change luck or if there is any good people we can find help from...
Been down for a year or so...
Kindly pm me any private advice. If not, feel free to share here.
Hope you'll say a short prayer for me.
Thanks plumshirt

I am a firm believer that God, Jesus, Buddha, Kwan Im, Allah, Mohammed, Ganesha, Krishna, Moses, etc.. will not help those who do not help themselves. I think the most important thing for anyone to do is to pick themselves up after a bad spell and just work very hard and things will always turn for the better. Praying is good, but not doin anything else but pray will not help either! Just my 2 cents worth!

All these r fates.... I dun believe in looking for it. Some ppl purposely go all the way to this so called very 'chun' place to buy the amulet, thinking it is very 'real'. This is too religious, if u know abt buddism, since when can u buy 'this'. It is faith, a teaching n not idol. U dun need an amulet to change your luck. If u r into this, remember this, what u get now was what u did b4.

Agreed with bro Wins88 as it's important to know what went wrong and how to corrrect it. However, I believed all gods are supposed to be good but you can't be depending on them to help you when you are hungry, right?

Maybe you can tell us of your birthday. Year, month and day. And if you are a Chinese, the lunar date of birth as well.

All Bros, Thank you for advice.
I am not in transition... no work yet but feeling better.
Let us just say I've been praying a long time.
I have been to Buddhist temple and church...
But this did not offer hope then.
And the wait was weary...So I posted this.
Sorry Bro Ascott - I think you know that info
cannot pass round just like that.:p
But thank you as well.
I am now hoping, waiting and seeking.
Past karmic debts? - probably previous life if true.
Met 1 sifu and he managed to heal me partially... but $$$
Now at least eat food got taste...;) Although still injured
and in bad patch... having tasted food for what it is after 10 years+ is still Heavenly.
Still waiting, hoping, searching... please say a prayer for me.
Thank you and Gods bless you all for your help.

bro.. logic is simple.
if you do good, even without praying... the god will protect you.
having said that...but i am a firm believer of the thai amulet, its save my life before.

Let me just say when people compare me to others:
They say I kwai... although in my view, I am not so kwai but got principles- only human mah.
Done a lot of good things... In fact, my friend introduce this sifu
after I helped him work through his own problems...
I shared my exp and we were worried if I kena kongtau lor.

Why don't you tell us what is your problem first? Is it love, money, family, health, etc, etc?
If you are more specific, then maybe someone here may be able to give the correct advise instead of speculating.
You said you have been to Buddhist temple and church...but that did not offer hope then. Moreover, the wait was weary...
How is Buddha or God going to help you if you don't even have the initial faith? You go to the temple not truly believing in Buddha, and also go to the Church not really believing in God. And hope that maybe one of them if they exist, helps you?
Brother, I don't want to talk about religion here but set you priorities right!

Aiya, in my Godma's time, a medium 'tiao' at my place - Guan Yin entered her body... and came to talk to her sis (pic of Mary) at Godma's place... Since I know this to be true, I came to respect both religions...
After praying and getting some healing - I am feeling better. I am seeking for healing and life direction (ie career/business)... I was weary because my family and friends did not have faith nor believe in my condition... and gossips were going on behind my back. It was nothing to do with my religious faith.

Hinduism is related to Buddhism...
Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism is related.
Some have gone to India, Tibet and found evidence Christ was there.
Although we do not live in the past,
we can respect evidence if we find it, confirm it.
Each religion has its differing views and rules
but they follow the same basis.
I would go myself to see
But I lack the opportunity at this point. ($$$)
Still, I reflect, all these religions teach us
to do good and gain merit.
My respect towards religion is by its teaching to do good;
Not how it can be used to psycho the people...
How it teaches us to live life
Taming the thieves within it.

Brother Plumshirt,
The whole world is related. All of us are interlink by our mind. I am not saying anything religious. Bear in mind that, our mind (spirit) transform us to energy and lastly form. We are now living as a human being which is a type of form. Luck is an energy that is caused by very subtle mind or spirit or soul. There is no origin or begining of the world and it is also endless. We have to know that our mind have no begining. Nobody creates us. We are here due to the cycle of samsara. Even if u escape the cycle, you are still exist but is formless. Means that we back to 10 eons ago.

Yeoh bro,
Wearing thai amulets only enhence ur "ren yun" and possible smooth sailing. The most important aspect that will decide ur fate is ur own karma- cause and effects. I agreed with wat big boss ThaiVisitor said, u must set urself in the right mindset first.
I myself have being wearing 3 kun peng, also dun see gals throwing themselves at me, only my relationship become very smooth sailling only. Like wat an archan told me b4, when u wear amulets u will have lots of metta but how u focus them on is very important cos of karma. Like wat bro Aviator had mention, chantign the Da bei zhou does help but make sure u chant every day .. dun only chant when u need help. If u need any audio cds on this chant , pm me i will be gradly to send u one.

AMK ok... when is event bro Dickster? Pls add date and time.
Spiderman, From nothingness came the spirit which formed the two... yes indeed, you are right. But how does one use energy to aid form? ie to clear block channels or channels which are very hard to unblock, unlock?

Hi plumskirt,
yup the one u listening to is mantra of great illumination, a very simple yet powerful mantra. Upon invoking this mantra, spirits and lesser dieties will have to kneel to this mantra. Which version do u have? I have some very nice and relaxing ones too. Maybe by tommorrow i zip up the more populars chants and put in some webbie for u all to download.

You don't only need to recite Om Mani Padme Hum. You must also recite the whole set of Buddhism Chant. I hope you will be careful. I also hope that you were not born in the year of Dragon. If you were, then you might be in trouble. I am not mentioning that I am a good predictor. I was in this line since twenty years ago. I can see the light falling down the earth. The light isn't from the sun.
Hope you will understand. By the way, your pm is full.

Good day to all,
hmm no offense ok? reciting all chants? i think that is quite impossible. By chanting the ten great small chants already take u 2 hrs, not including the sutras and pali chants. but if u really want to chant more i suggest chating the mantra of great illumination, da bei zhou and zhun ti zhou will do lah. if possible include the heart sutra or amitabha sutra. no need all lah.If strictly speaking u want only one chant just do heart sutra or da bei zhou will be enough(remember to transfer of merits after all the chants). Btw dun strick strictly to the forecast of ur future, it was mentioned in one buddhist text, we could change our fate by doing more good deeds,mindful of our speech and actions. We are not judged upon by our birth but by how we carried ourselves. The stuff i had mention above are the best to my knowledge, if any mistakes , pls pardon me.
Regards
plumshirt
14-12-2005, 07:52 PM
Relax. I have no idea what's a whole set of Buddhist chant... maybe he means 1 set of scripture... like Heart Sutra or something like that.
We are here to share what's good. Hopefully all will benefit.
I definitely hope this will help me get pass this transition.

Maybe a simple Green Mother Tara Mantra can help.

Been having this weird back ache...
Yesterday, went get holy water.
Prayed sutra and drank... it calmed me and removed pain yesterday.
Today, whatever it is was acting up again.
Been to western docs - nothing...
TCM... only ba guan then came back.
Donno what that means...
except it makes me irritable and temper.
Not usual self. - which was one reason I came to this site
some time back.

15-12-2005, 11:38 AM
Greeting bros,
Maybe you should try more chanting , it might help. Did u try meditation?
If all else does not work, may be you should see ur doc to get "relaxton" type of medicine. But this is only short term solution only as such medicine is quite addictive.
