百善孝爲先

《道教孝道文化。百善孝爲先。孝行天下》

生育養育恩情重，

比山大，

比海深，

無物能比。

行孝揚孝倫理尊，

比天高，

比地厚，

哪樣能及。

不管你是什麽身份，不管你是身份人種，衹要懷有一片「孝心」，上天自然不會辜負與你。

「行孝」不分國籍，不分區域，不分貴賤，不分好壞，「孝者」自然受人尊重，得人欽佩。

「行孝」，除了實際表現，有者也可透過宗教來爲家中雙老祈福延壽。

而在【道教】，爲雙老祈福延壽之前，身爲子女的，得先行懺悔，再來祈福延壽，效應自然會更好。

玉皇宥罪行懺悔，

一片丹心得天赦。

三官覃恩解罪厄，

保命得佑身得康。

改卻前作是非事，

還來脫連百事吉。

元辰照明斗中顯，

祛病延壽富貴添。

在此分享，衷心鼓勵多多行之。

A Song to dedicate to All Parent - My Parent (最親愛的人)

小道今日記 – 癸巳年巧月十五日寅時
Dao Diary 21 August 2013 AM03:00

最親愛的人。

當父母親還在身邊的時候﹐有很多人都會覺得他們很"煩"﹐時常"嘮叨"個不停﹐通常會想說﹐如果自己是別人的孩子該有多好。

可是﹐當父母親離世後﹐自己在回想當年情景時﹐多數都會後悔為何當時不讓自己的父母親多說說自己﹐現在想要聽聽他們叮嚀的聲音都沒有機會了。

當子女的﹐有時會因為自己煩躁而大小聲對待父母親。但作為孩子們的我們﹐是否有顧念到當父母親在為我們這些孩子煩躁時﹐他們能向誰大小聲﹖

孝順﹐絕對不能等。
等了﹐就孝順不來。

在中元佳節﹐地官清虛大帝考校巡天下時﹐自己作個反思。
反思自己之前對待父母親的態度。
反思後﹐真誠的向地官清虛大帝求赦。

不論自己的父母親在世或已離世﹐真心的向他們說聲對不起。
請求他們的原諒。
這比在今生之中﹐自己所得到的一切富貴回報還來的重要千倍﹐萬倍。

三無量。
大孝心。

Mothers' Day 2013 (癸巳蛇年母親節祈福儀式)

母親節雖非道教節日﹐但每年的今天﹐小道及弟子們總會為家族中的母親們點燈祈福﹐因此今年也不例外。

眾人常說﹕"敬神不如敬父母" - 這是小道非常讚同的一句話。不論你個人修行有多高或法力有多強﹐不敬父母者就等同畜牲一樣﹐一切皆為枉然。

與此﹐借此機會﹐祝賀全天下母親(包括非人類)﹕

母親節快樂。
大道永護佑。

Even though Mothers' Day is not a Taoist Festival/Feast Day, but every year, on this Day, Jave & disciples will light Lamps for All Mothers in the family, in-order to request Health/Luck/Prosperity Blessing for All of them.

Filial Piety is important in our Faith. No matter how Skillful or Powerful oneself is, without Filial Piety, oneself is consider Nothing (or worst then a beast). And this is why, Jave always encouraged disciples to uphold Filial Piety.

Using this opportunity, Jave and members will like to wish All Mothers in the World (including Non-human-beings);

A Happy Mothers' Day

Video on topic of Filial Piety cant be Wait (影視分享-孝順不能等)

OOT Posting:

Please do watch this video, digest it, understand it, do it and continue it.

Filial Piety, a thing/an event/a real life action, that cannot be wait or delay.

As a child, this is a most basic task that oneself shall practise/perform/uphold.

Don't wait till one's parent is gone then regret.

Hope you all will at least learn something after watching.

What is Filial Piety? (何為孝)

天下之大﹐母親之親唯親。
天下之最﹐孝順為最之最。

Dear All,

Lunar New Year just over and soon, we will be ready to honour our Ancestors during Qing Ming Festival Period.

So what is Filial Piety to you?

You can be a very well-educated person, you can be a CEO of an Listed Company or you can be High-recognised Religious Leader, but if you are not being known as a Filial person, you are nothing in this World.

In the attachment is a picture of a 40 years old ++ married-man whom carried his ill-mother to the hospital for consultation on 2nd March 2012.

This picture was taken by one of the family members of a patient in the hospital and from her description, when the crowd saw that this man came into the hospital with his mother cruddled in the arms, many people couldnt stop their tears rolling down.

In the modern World today, is Monetary more important that many of us had forgotten about what is Filial Piety?

By looking at this picture, ponder over this question - Have I did my best to assist my own Mum when she encounters problem?

An Ancient Hokkien Saying on Filial Piety (閩南孝道俚語)

On the way back from Jave's Medical Consultation, Jave and Mum stopped at Coffeeshop to have a quick bite, just at that moment, both of us saw a middle-age daughter feeding her Senile Mother. That moment, we will so touched by the scene. Suddenly this phrase that pass-down from my Grandmother appear in mine and Mum's mind.

The Phrase is:

父母飼咱生。咱飼父母老。
Pronouce as Peh Bhoo Chee Lang Shee.Lang Chee Peh Bhoo Lhao.

This is an old Hokkien saying of - Parent bring us to this World, feed us, support us till we got our own Family. We, as Children, also needed to support them till old and feed them when they are not able to feed themselves.
