第二四手相云:「若為求生諸梵天上者,當於軍持手。」

人間所渴望的

如何安身立命

不如當下轉心

讓紅塵轉為淨土

煩惱轉為菩提

【祝福】

天堂,是種美麗的嚮往,西方信仰的人希望死後上天堂,佛家也有「梵天」之說,那是美麗而長壽的天人聚集的地方,就是民間信仰裡所說的諸神雲集的「天上」。有些人,現世生活不如意,就希望生命之路結束後上天堂,覺得今生之苦都可以因此得到美好報償。

軍持手的祝福,本意雖然祈願若有人發願生於梵天的,必能如願;但在更深進的層次,其實是提醒我們,與其追求遙遠的往生後的天堂,不如努力轉心轉境,在每個當下安樂自在,讓此生即是天堂。

軍持手是種提醒,告訴我們快樂源於內心的力量,念轉心轉,天堂不遠,梵天就在身旁。

 

Heaven is a beautiful yearning. People with Western beliefs hope to go to heaven after death. Buddhism also has the theory of "Brahma". It is a place where beautiful and long-lived heavenly beings gather. It is also where the gods are gathered in folk belief: "Heaven". Some people, if their life in this world is not satisfactory, they hope to go to heaven after the end of their life, feeling that all their suffering in this life can be rewarded with good things.

Although the original intention of the blessing of the military holding hands is to pray that if someone wishes to be born in Brahma, he will be able to fulfill his wish; but at a deeper level, it actually reminds us that instead of pursuing the distant paradise after death, it is better to work hard to change our mind and change our circumstances. Be at ease in every moment and let this life be heaven.

Military holding hands is a reminder, telling us that happiness comes from the power of the heart. If your thoughts change, your heart will change, heaven is not far away, and Brahma is by your side.
