自性圓滿- Wholeness of oneself

去年的一個時機遇見師父,師父信手拈來一文宣品,問當時的我那是什麼?運用想像力隨口猜猜,回答:"嗯,那是佛手!",師父接著問我"那是什麼意思?"我一時答不上來,他就順手在圖上比畫了一下,告訴我:"這代表自性圓滿".當時的我怔了一下,回想那張圖片,佛的感情掌紋自呈一圓圈,不若一般人要左一半,右一半,找到另一半,才能併起來成為一半圓,有人說,對稱的半圓代表婚姻圓滿,當下,我突然內心感動及羨慕佛陀不已,即是自性圓滿,代表感情無缺!又有什麼好強求另一半的呢?不過,若已有了另一半,應該幫助彼此同修"同心圓",互相成就彼此,互增上緣!

one day last year master happened to find a card with a buddha's handprints on it. he asked me" what is it?" i replied"buddha's handprints". then he continued to ask"what does it imply?" i couldn't answer immediately. he pointed the top line in buddha's hand in the card then said" it represented wholeness of oneself." i was so impressed since the buddha's single handprint is a complete circle rather than a fraction of the circle in a typical single hand . a chinese fortunate teller could tell how one's marriage goes from the shape and conjunction of putting two top lines from two hands together. it means good marriage if the two lines togther are symetric ,smoothy and upward. buddha doesn't need to find another fraction to make its circle complete but most of us we do. however, if you have found one, just remember to make both of you inside the circle as the one. if you haven't found any, then you are certainly the one!
