Lucky to be born Human
Enlarge your thoughts even more, compare yourself to a mountain,
the sky, the earth. Where is the earth in the limitless universe?
In the universe where are you? Are you really so important, think
more. Do you know the meaning of life, or your purpose in life?
Wisdom tells us that to be born as a human being is such a rare
and treasured gift. Imagine a blind turtle, swimming in an ocean
which covers a planet, and a small wooden ring floating somewhere
within this ocean. To be born human is as rare as the turtle swimming
to the surface and catching the hoop. Do we really appreciate the
gift of human life? With this gift we are able to cultivate our
spirit (soul), realise our true nature and mix with the universal
natural consciousness (emptiness). This is the meaning of life.
A real treasure is to find a real Master
Although we read the theory and think we understand, can we really
prove it in our everyday lives? To be able to accomplish this we
need the guidance of a real master (teacher). To find a real master
willing to teach and train a student is indeed so rare a treasure,
with so many false masters lacking real understanding and accomplishment,
it is much easier to be lead along the wrong path.
Uncovering the truth of twenty years of silence
In this article we are also discussing the sad and necessary deaths
of Bruce Lee and his beloved son Brandon. We are publishing the statement
of Living Buddha Sheng Yen-Lu that the fallen stars were indeed murdered,
giving explanations as well as detailed insight into the spiritual
side of Kung Fu and life. The voice behind this article is a well
known martial artist and spiritual cultivator; Master Simon Wong.
Interviewing Master Wong he answers many questions offering real experiences
and true wisdom enabling the reader to benefit from and really learn.
Many articles, films, books, etc. have surfaced since the death of
Bruce Lee. This article's purpose is not to benefit from Bruce's status
but to promote and explain philosophy of great value which Bruce strongly
supported. We hope that people, especially martial arts practitioners
realise that there is always a higher mountain, it doesn't matter
how tough or powerful you might think you are, without following the
spiritual path as well as the physical you can be destroyed or destroy
yourself at any moment, it really is that unstable. People who stand
out from the crowd or hold powerful positions are especially vulnerable.
We only fear the unknown, 'wisdom' gives us the power to sever all
chains of 'ignorance', changing all fear and suffering into peace.
