有一次，我去看一位癌症末期的患者，他的妻子告訴我，他昏睡很久了，醫生說他隨時都會走。我幫他皈依，唸三十五佛懺罪文，他忽然清楚了起來，我趁機開導他說：「人生無常，苦空無我，……要對阿彌陀佛生起信心，發願求生極樂，云云。」第二天他便安然離去。我又「送他一程」！以前看過佛教往生淨土的傳記，說了往生者生前從未接觸佛法，但在更遠的過去種下的因緣臨終前成熟了，他也一樣，這是他的福報，不應只是巧合。
Once, I went to see a terminally-ill cancer patient. His wife told me that he slept for a long time; the doctor said he would die at any time. I helped him to take refuge in the Three Jewels and read the text of Thirty-five Buddhas. His mind suddenly cleared up, I took the opportunity to give him some guidance and said: "Life is impermanent, full of suffering, empty in nature, one must give rise to confidence to Amitabha Buddha, vow to take rebirth in the Pure Land, and so on." The next day he passed away peacefully. I "give him his last ride!" [so to speak]. I read before about the Buddhists' account on taking rebirth in the Pure Land which described that even though the deceased never have any contact with Buddha's teachings, but one may plant the karmic seed in the distant past and the seed finally matured before one's death [in the current life time]; he [the old man] too, this is his meritorious reward, not just a coincidence.
諸位菩薩大德， 吾於2007年跟隨第十七世噶瑪巴聽列泰耶多傑和夏瑪巴在菩提迦葉出家，2008年成立菩提道台中中心，其宗旨在推廣佛行事業，傳布佛法，實踐菩薩行，淨化人心，祕密莊嚴人間淨土。 於2012年在台灣法界電視臺弘揚噶舉傳承與菩提心等佛法大意。2013年兩位法王指派吾兼任花蓮寺院法務，自2014年將定期辦理紐聶〈十一面千手觀音斷食法)，白度母等閉關法會。 今錄製光碟，流通結緣。願諸高僧大德不吝賜教! 當今我們遭遇如此殊勝之教法，皆不願勝教衰微。今祈請大德齊心協力，共濟未來。 Google部落格http://bodhipath07.blogspot.com/ (菩提道台中中心)
