Buddhists' questions: giving food, chanting Buddhist scriptures, releasing and other questions and answers

学佛问题：施食、念地藏经、放生等问答

amitabha. Don't do any evil, follow all good deeds, persevere, and respond to all requests.

-----Zhuge Changqing

1. Zhu Yongzhong asked:

Excuse me, is it reasonable to give food on the roof of the building? Can all sentient beings get it?

Zhuge Changqing answers:

amitabha. Theoretically, it is better to give food on the ground or at the intersection of the ground and the water. Feeding on the ground can transcend more sentient beings, because many people with low energy can also participate in feeding. However, if there is really no place to feed or it is inconvenient for various reasons, you can also feed on the roof (you must pay attention to safety). Although the food on the roof is not as generous as the food on the ground, the merit is still great, and it is better to do it than not. This is "skillful and convenient".

2. "Life is beautiful because of letting go" asked:

Hello, Mr. Zhuge Changqing. I ask two questions: First, my family has children. They get up at 3 o'clock in the morning and recite "Guanyin Pu Men Pin" three times, and a "Dizang Jing" in the afternoon. Will it bring ghosts? Second, I don't convert to Buddhism, recite Buddhist scriptures at home, and I don't have Buddha statues at home, can I?

Zhuge Changqing answers:

amitabha. The teacher answers your question as follows:

First, the recitation of "Guanyin Pumen Pin" and "Dizang Jing" has great merit, and it is suggested to conform to the ritual. Because when chanting Buddhist sutras, there will be Buddha light and Dharmapala. This powerful force will disturb your creditors and nearby living beings. It is a very serious thing to chant Buddhist sutras. For details, you can refer to Zhuge Changqing Sina blog article "How to recite the Sutra of the Earth: the ritual method of chanting the Sutra of the Earth (full version)", and you will understand how to recite it.

Second, you can recite the Sutra of Dizang even if you haven't converted or have no Buddha at home. The core of learning Buddhism is to learn the compassionate spirit of Buddha and Bodhisattva, which is "self-serving, self-managing and self-conscious". Learning Buddhism depends on your heart. In the Huayan Sutra, Juelin Bodhisattva once said: All things are created by heart. If you sincerely study Buddhism, you have actually converted without conversion ceremony. If there is no sincerity, it is useless to do the conversion ceremony. You are sincere in learning Buddhism, so in fact, you are already a true convert.

Buddha and Bodhisattva are everywhere. If you sincerely study Buddha, you will find Buddha everywhere in your home, on the road and in the void. Therefore, it is the same to be sincere and not offer Buddha statues. When you recite, Buddha and Bodhisattva all know it. This is what the Buddha Sakyamuni Buddha said in the Vajra Sutra, "The Tathagata knows, knows and sees several kinds of hearts of all living beings.". You are sincere and have done well. Come on!

3. Miss Baozi asked:

Teacher Zhuge Changqing: Hello, thank you for giving food and releasing a series of five-in-one wisdom, which has benefited us all a lot. Thank you. Recently, I have something to ask you. There are many ants nearby when giving food. There is no special ritual to give them. That doesn't matter, but I saw an article about giving ants on the Internet. I'm very sad. I used to feed on condensed milk, and my karma is heavy. So I dare not try bread and cookies because there are eggs and oil. You can only get raw millet. But in my heart, I have doubts. Many people eat milk porridge, which is said to be effective, and sprinkled on the ground. I don't know if it will affect the ants. And every time after giving food, I always feel that the ghosts are not full, and I also give the rest of the food and my food. Sometimes when I meet the faucet, I have to put water and recite the six-character Daming mantra. Why do I think they ate but didn't have enough. I also ask Mr. Zhuge Changqing to teach me. Thank you, teacher!

Zhuge Changqing answers:

amitabha.

(1) You have the heart to give to the ants, and your merit is immeasurable. The act of using food to help the poor, the poor, the beggars, and animals is also charity (Zhuge Changqing: This is called charity by the sun).

(2) You have the heart to do good. Even if you make mistakes, your guilt is not very great. This is kindness without fault. Of course, if you feel guilty, you can repent and do meritorious deeds for 20 days.

(3) Usually, you can crush the steamed bread, feed the ants and melt them. Zhuge Changqing suggested that every time you feed ants, you should teach them about the Blissful World, give them three conversions, and ask them to recite "Amitabha", hoping that they will die in the Western Blissful World as soon as possible and leave the animal path as soon as possible. Can.

4. "Yuandong" asked:

Hello, Mr. Zhuge Changqing. I did it once yesterday morning according to your ritual, and once at noon, but didn't do it at night. Last night, I rested and dreamed. It was a terrible dream. I dreamed that there were explosions everywhere in a group of people. It was a bit like the explosion of a pressure cooker. Then there were many stones in the sky. Many people were very confused. I looked like I was hit with a small stone. I quickly hid in a safe place, like a basement passage!

Zhuge Changqing answers:

amitabha. Your dream belongs to feeding induction.

This is fatalism. You see your past.

Over the years, you have experienced big explosions, meteorites falling from the sky, and many people lost their lives. This is their dream to you, hoping that you will surpass them. The teacher will teach you a move. No matter what dream you have in the future, you can call for a return.

5. Yang asked:

I dreamed last night that I was fighting with a kid at home, and I also recited the * * * curse myself, and then woke up early in the morning. Is there any indication of this?

Zhuge Changqing answers:

amitabha. Your dream belongs to creditors. If you have hurt them for many years, they will come to you for debt collection. You can communicate repentance, promise to feed beyond them, and then feed beyond them. I suggest you repent and feed back for 3 days.

6. Shan Xueliang asked:

Thank you, Mr. Zhuge Changqing and all the senior brothers for their mercy! Can I join the Xiamen release group?

Zhuge Changqing answers:

amitabha. You can participate in the Xiamen Release Group, which organizes release regularly. For details, you can communicate with the contact person of the Xiamen Release Group, "Compassion and Wisdom Sword".

WeChat of Xiamen Release Group, search: "May-chen 1975"; Or search "Compassion and Wisdom Sword" for detailed consultation. If you have good intentions and good intentions, you will be rewarded. Come on.

阿弥陀佛。诸恶莫作，众善奉行，持之以恒，有求必应。

----- 诸葛长青

  1、朱永中问：

  请问，在楼房顶板，施食合理吗？众生上得了吗？

   诸葛长青解答：

  阿弥陀佛。按理说，做施食，最好是在地面上或者地面和水面交叉的地方等。在地面施食，可以超度更多众生，因为很多能量低的也可以参加施食。但是，如果确实无地方施食或者种种原因不方便的，也可以在楼顶施食（必须注意安全）。楼顶施食，虽然不如地面施食超度的多，但是功德依旧很大，做了总比不做好。这就是“善巧方便”。

  2、“生命因放下而美丽”问：

  诸葛长青老师好，我问两个问题：一是我家有小孩，早上3点起床诵《观音普门品》3遍、下午一部《地藏经》，会不会带来鬼呀？二是请问我没有皈依佛门，在家诵地藏经，家里也没有佛像，可以吗？

  诸葛长青解答：

  阿弥陀佛。老师对你问题解答如下：

  一是念诵《观音普门品》和《地藏经》功德很大，建议要符合仪轨。因为念诵佛经，就有佛光、就有护法神出现，这种强大力量会扰动自己债主、附近众生等，念经是一项很严肃的事情。具体你可以参考诸葛长青新浪博客文章《如何念地藏经：念地藏经仪轨方法（完整版）》，看了你就明白如何念诵了。

  二是没做皈依、家里无佛像，也可以念诵《地藏经》。学佛，核心是学习佛菩萨“自利利人、自度度人、自觉觉人”的慈悲精神。学佛，关键看你的发心。《华严经》里面，觉林菩萨曾说：一切唯心造。若有诚心学佛，没有皈依仪式实际上也已经皈依了。如果没有诚心，做了皈依仪式也无用。你有诚心学佛，所以，实际上早已经是真正的皈依了。

  佛菩萨无处不在，若有诚心学佛，你家里、公路上、虚空里，到处都是佛。所以，有诚心，不供佛像也是一样的。你念诵时候，佛菩萨都是知道的，这就是佛祖释迦牟尼佛在《金刚经》里说的“众生若干种心，如来悉知悉见” 。你有诚心，做的很好，加油！

  3、苞子姑娘问：

  诸葛长青老师: 您好，感谢您的施食放生一系列五合一智慧，让我们都受益匪浅。谢谢您，近来弟子有一事请教。施食的时候有许多蚂蚁在旁边，想布施它们，可没有专门的仪轨。那不要紧，但我在网上看到一篇关于布施蚂蚁的文章......。我很难过，以前我还专门拿炼乳施食过，业障重。所以面包饼干也不敢试，因为有蛋、油。只能拿到生小米施。但心中，又有疑惑，很多人都乳粥施食，说是效果好，又洒在了土地上，不知这对蚂蚁有没有妨碍。还有每次施食完总觉得鬼道众生没有吃饱，又把剩下一下食物与我的食物都施出去，有时遇到水龙头都要放水念六字大明咒。为什么我觉得他们吃了但没有吃饱。还请诸葛长青老师不吝赐教。谢谢老师!

  诸葛长青解答：

  阿弥陀佛。

  （1）你有布施蚂蚁之心，功德无量。用食物救助贫困、穷人、乞丐、动物等行为，也是施食（诸葛长青：这叫阳施食）。

  （2）你有行善之心，即使犯了错，罪业也不是很大。这就是善心无过错。当然，如果你觉得内心愧疚，可以忏悔、做功德回向20天就可以。

  （3）平时可以把馒头捏成碎末，喂蚂蚁并度化他们。诸葛长青建议，你每次喂蚂蚁的时候，给他们开示极乐世界好，给他们三皈依，请他们多念“阿弥陀佛”，希望他们早日往生西方极乐世界，早日脱离畜生道。就可以。

  4、“远栋”问：

  您好，诸葛长青老师。我昨天早上按您仪轨做一次，中午做了一次，晚上没做，昨晚休息，做梦了，很恐怖的梦，梦见再一群人里，到处爆炸，有点像高压锅爆炸的感觉，然后天上还下很多石头，很多人很混乱，我好像被砸中了小块石头，我赶紧躲进一个安全的地方，像一个地下室通道式的地方！

   诸葛长青解答：

  阿弥陀佛。你的梦境属于施食感应。

  这是宿命通。你看到了你的过去。

  累世你曾经历过大爆炸、天上降落陨石等情况，当年很多人因此丢掉性命。这是他们给你托梦，希望你超度他们。老师教你一招，以后不论做了什么梦，都召请回向一下就可以。

   5、 “扬”问：

  我昨晚梦到在家里和小鬼斗，自己还念***咒语，然后早上很早就醒了。这种有什么预示吗？

   诸葛长青解答：

  阿弥陀佛。你的梦境属于债主讨债。你累世伤害过他们，他们就来找你讨债。你沟通忏悔、承诺施食超度他们，然后施食超度他们就可以。建议你忏悔、施食回向3天，就可以了。

  6、单学亮问：

  感恩诸葛长青老师及各位师兄慈悲！请问我能加入厦门放生群么？

  诸葛长青解答：

  阿弥陀佛。可以参加厦门放生小组放生，他们定期组织放生，具体你可以和厦门放生小组联系人“慈悲智慧剑”沟通一下。

  厦门放生小组微信，搜索：“May-chen 1975”；或者搜索“慈悲智慧剑”，进行详细咨询。你有善心善念，必有福报，加油。
