问:弟子于2018年9月12日在观音堂拜佛时,见观音堂佛台的菩萨圣像金光万丈,整个佛台金光闪闪。不久,菩萨传意念于我“弟子听令,待会让护法带你下去游地狱一趟”。弟子拜佛回家后在家里休息一会,感觉身体一轻,魂魄被护法提起,不久就来到了地府门前。
Question:
On 12 September 2018, when I was at the Guan Yin Citta Centre paying respect to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, I saw that the statues of the Bodhisattvas suddenly radiating brilliant golden light that enveloped the entire altar. Soon after, the Bodhisattva conveyed a thought message to me: “Attention disciple. In a moment, the Dharma Protectors will take you on a trip down to Hell.” After paying my respect and returning home to relax, I felt that my whole body had become light. My soul was being lifted away by the Dharma Protectors, and before long I arrived at the entrance of the Underworld.
电眼地狱:(惩戒在世用眼睛犯淫欲的男女)地狱门前的守门鬼差打开了门让我进去,到了一片比较高的空地,下面是一片很大的平地,环境阴暗,很多罪灵(男男女女)有的脸上如梦如幻一样,有的是一脸痛苦。这个地狱上空有很多刑具在漂浮。我仔细一看,刑具是各种各样的书、电脑平板、电话、电脑(有新款的电脑,还有那种1998年的旧款电脑)、电视(旧款和新款的电视穿插其中),这些刑具漂浮在罪灵的头上。
The Hell of Eye Shock: Men and women who use their eyes to commit sexual misconduct will be punished here.
At the entrance of this Hell were two guards, who opened the gates and let me in. I was walking on a vacant high ground, while a huge flat land lay below. The environment was dark and chilly, and there were many offenders, both men and women. Some appeared to be in a trance, while others were obviously in pain. In the Hell’s sky, I could see many instruments of torture. Upon closer inspection, the devices appeared to be various books, tablet computers, smartphones, computers (including modern and older- style ones from 1998) and television sets. They floated ominously around the offenders’ heads.
这些工具是惩罚罪灵的邪淫念头。阳世的人以为看这些很快活,不知这些恶业种子一旦进入脑子就是成为恶业的果,日积月累,恶果成熟,在世又不行善就是在这里。只有念经拜佛多种善因,好好忏悔、改过,才能免除这些恶果成熟。
These instruments were used to punish the souls for their lustful thoughts. In the Human Realm, people regard pornography as a kind of entertainment, but fail to realise that when these negative karmic seeds are sowed into their mind, they eventually mature into negative karmic fruit. If the person fails to perform wholesome deeds while living, they will be transferred to this Hell. Only by reciting sutras, paying respect to the Buddha, performing many wholesome and meritorious deeds and repenting and reforming themselves will they be able to halt the maturation of this negative karma.
一个中年男子罪灵,头上飘着一个笔记本,罪灵先出现一脸如痴如醉的表情,过后,笔记本打开,里面闪出电光射进罪灵的眼睛,罪灵哀嚎着,被电得全身不能动,电光持续很久,大概过了7-8分钟,电光消失,罪灵意识昏过去,全身冒烟,躺在地上。笔记本飘走了。
A notebook floated above the head of a middle-aged male offender. Initially, his face showed signs of intoxication, but when the notebook opened, laser beams shot outwards, penetrating the offender’s eyes. He shrieked and howled with pain and his whole body froze up. The laser torture lasted for 7-8 minutes, rendering the offender unconscious once it was finally switched off. His whole body was burnt, smoking and left on the ground, and the notebook quietly floated away.
罪由心生啊!在世用什么工具(电脑,笔记本或淫书)犯淫欲的,死后你的意识就会浮现这些刑具来惩罚你。这些罪灵都是日积月累地看这些不好的、淫欲的影片或书籍,只是在世身体并没有造太多邪淫恶业,所以才会投到这个地狱。说完,护法领着我走向通往阳世的电梯,我进去,门关上,门开,我醒过来,回到阳世。
The Dharma Protector explained: “Sins are born of the mind! Whatever tool is used to commit sexual misconduct when alive, such as computers, notebooks or porn magazines, they will be recreated in your consciousness to punish you upon death. These souls have been watching unwholesome things consistently; hence they have been accumulating unwholesome deeds all the while. However, because their deeds of sexual misconduct were quite minimal, they were transferred to this particular Hell.” The Dharma Protector led me to the elevator to the Human Realm. As I entered, the door closed, and when it opened, I woke up in the Human Realm.
2018年9月17日在观音堂拜佛时,看到佛台云雾飘渺,从佛堂上空飘下一个大荧幕布满整个佛堂。空中传来护法的意念“弟子听令,把所看到地狱景象传于世间人,现带你去口业地狱看看”。不久,意识进入半梦半醒状态。
On 17 September 2018, when I was at the Guan Yin Citta Centre paying respect to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, I saw the Buddhist altar become enveloped by a gentle wave of cloud and mist. In the air, a display appeared that expanded to the size of the whole altar. Suddenly, I received a thought message from the Dharma Protector: “Attention disciple. You must share your observations of the Hell Realm with the living. I will first take you to see the Hell associated with negative verbal karma.” After a short while, my consciousness entered a half-awake, dreamlike state.
口业地狱:(惩戒恶口,两舌,诽谤善知识,挑拨离间之阳人)一个女罪灵被压着跪在地上,双手被绑在身后,满脸不服气,被鬼差用工具把嘴巴硬撑开,把舌头硬拉出来,整个舌筋差点被拉断,疼得她满脸泪水,可是又被鬼差压制住,无法逃脱。过后,用钉子把罪灵的舌尖拉长钉在地上,罪灵就这样半跪着接受惩戒,手不能动,口不能言。很多罪灵就是这样被固定钉在地上接受惩罚。
The Hell associated with negative verbal karma: People who commit deeds of harsh speech, divisive speech, defamation of good advisors or sowing dissension among people will be punished here.
一个罪灵被绑着,哀嚎大喊,恐惧害怕,被强硬绑在台上,拿了刑具,刑具用火烧过,也是把舌头硬拉出来,用刑具把舌头割断,疼得他哇哇大哭。鬼差说:在世爱说黄色笑话,又无中生有说学佛人的口业,犯大恶口业,让它死后下地狱连舌头也没有,看它如何再犯口业。第二天,罪灵舌头会自己生长回去,鬼差又割,直到它刑满出狱。不久,我就醒过来了。
A female soul was forced to kneel on the ground, her hands tied behind her back and her face expressing an unwillingness to submit. An enforcement officer used tools to pry open her mouth and pulled her tongue out so violently that it almost tore. Crying from the pain, she was unable to struggle free as she was locked in position by the enforcement officer. He took a stake and pinned the tip of her tongue to the ground. Made to kneel while her tongue was pinned down, the offender was unable to speak or even move. Many offenders received their punishment in this way.
Another offender, tied up on a platform, shouted and cried out in terror. An enforcement officer took a torture instrument that had been heated red hot, and just like before, violently pulled out this offender’s tongue but this time sliced it off. The man wept and cried in agony.
The enforcement officer said: “When this man was alive, he was fond of making dirty jokes and telling untruths about Buddhists. These are heavy negative verbal karma. He was sent to Hell after his death. Now that his tongue is detached, let’s see how he manages to commit negative verbal karma again.”
答:这个人很厉害,他讲的完全是真的,真的很可怕。所以高僧大德一般都不随便讲话的,你去庙里看见一个大法师,你和他讲很多,他就跟你讲一句“阿弥陀佛”,他不会跟你讲很多人间的事情的。开口就是业。非常痛苦,不要到了那个时候再害怕,早点觉悟吧,没有什么好讲的。还有黄色的东西千万不能看,我们是人,不能去看畜生的东西,真的是非常不好的,很恶心。一个人境界高了之后就不会再对这种事情有兴趣,所有的动物都不穿衣服,你们怎么不去看?如果我们把人下降一级,比方说我们人全部称为羊,羊跟羊才会看来看去,你人会去看羊吗?大家要懂这些道理,千万不要开玩笑。
Master Jun Hong Lu’s reply:
This person really is incredible - everything she said is real. It’s really scary. That’s why prestigious and virtuous monastics or lay practitioners don’t speak casually. When you go to a temple, meeting with a senior monk or a nun, if you speak and explain a lot of things to them, they will only reply with the holy name, “Amitabha”. They will not speak much about worldly matters.
Karma is created when the mouth opens. The suffering is unfathomable. Don’t regret it once it’s too late! Be awakened soon. There’s nothing else to say. Do not watch pornography. We are humans - we mustn’t watch animalistic things, it’s disgusting. After one’s spirituality has reached a higher level, they will gradually and naturally become uninterested in such things. Animals don’t wear clothes, so why don’t you look at them instead? If we humans were lowered to the level of, say, sheep, then it’s only natural for a sheep to look at other sheep. As a human, will you be interested in watching sheep? Everybody must understand these principles. Don’t mess around.
