life is short.., 人生短短

Life is short
Don't be hard on yourself
Don't be unhappy because of someone else's words or actions, and be angry all day long
It's like using someone else's stone to prick your feet

Life is all about making choices
Sometimes, no matter how you make a choice, there will be regrets
Then choose what you love and love what you choose
If you have regrets, let it go with the wind...

Don't worry about tomorrow. Today's things are enough for today. Tomorrow's things, tomorrow will be tomorrow
If you worry about things that will not happen, it's useless. It will only waste your energy and make people depressed, and it will not help; if you worry about things that will definitely happen, you can't change them. You can only accept it, let it go, and move forward. Learn from mistakes. We can do our best and leave the rest to, for the best arrangement..

Resentment is like holding a red-hot iron rod in your hand. The longer you hold it, the more painful it will be. Let go of your heart. Everyone you see is a good person. The environment in which your body and mind are located is so beautiful and the air is so fresh...

 If everyone can live to 100 years old, that's only 36,500 days. Don't live in unhappiness all the time. Stay with the people you love and care about, eat the healthy food you like, stay in a comfortable, unpolluted, beautiful environment you like, read some good books, go to some good places to enjoy, do some charity activities and give back to the society..
Every day that passes is one day less, so cherish it well..

人生短短
别和自己过不去
别因别人的一句话,一个动作
就不开心,乘致生气了一整天
仿佛拿别人的石头,来扎自己的脚

人生无不是,都要做选择
有时如何做选择了,都会有遗憾
那就选择你所爱的,爱你所选择的
有后悔的,就让它随风而去吧。。

别为明天而忧虑,今天的事,今天担当就够了,明天的事,明天再说
不会发生的,你在忧虑,也没用,只会内耗,让人心情低落,于事无补;肯定发生的,你忧虑,也不能改变,只能接受它,放下它,再前进,从错误中学习,我们可以做,做自己最好的,其他的留给上天做最好的安排。。

怨恨,若仿佛自己手里拿着一根烧红了的铁杆,你拿得越久,自己越痛苦,放开你的心,看见的每一个人,都是好人,身心处于的环境,是多么的优美,空气多么的清新。。

若每个人能活到100岁,那不过是36,500天,别常活在不开心里头,要常与爱的人,关心的人在一起,吃些喜爱的,健康的食物,常处在自己喜爱的,舒适的,不受污染的,美好的环境里,看些好的书📚,去些好的地方游玩, 做些公益活动,回馈社会,日子过了一天,就是少一天,好好的珍惜吧。。

读万卷书,行万里路 learning, traveling


There is a saying: Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. 

But I hope: Reading ten thousand books n also traveling ten thousand miles. 

Reading is a kind of fun. Dive into the book, let the author take you on a journey, provide you with knowledge, inspire your wisdom, let yourself avoid detours, or overtake on the curve and make progress...

Travel thousands of miles, I mean to go everywhere
Travel, expand your knowledge, experience the land, people, customs, culture, special characteristics of different places, walk eight thousand miles of clouds and moon, and when you are walking with many people, you can have me and my teacher, get advice from the master, and point out the blind spots. .

The more you read and learn, the more you travel and see, the more you benefit, and you will be richer and richer inside(inner)..

有句话说:
读万卷书,不如行万里路
我却希望:
读万卷书,也行万里路

看书,是种乐趣,潜入书中,
让作者带你遨游,提供你知识,
启发你智慧,让自己少走弯路,
或可弯道超车,进步的前进。。

行万里路,我的意思是要到处走走
去旅行,增广见闻,体会不同地方的国土,人情,习俗,文化,特殊特点,走偏八千里路云和月,还可在多人行时,有我与师耶,得高人提点,点破盲点。。

阅读学习得越多,走走看看得越广,受益非浅的是自己,让自己内在更富裕,更丰富。。

珍惜食物

还记得,在太平卫理幼稚园时老师的教导,当孩童的我们被分发食物或是红豆沙时,我们都要说:感谢及感恩因为我们被赐予食物,每一份食物都是很珍贵的,我们要好好珍惜,别浪费!

长大了,即使我不是基督徒,我还是很珍惜这教诲。。。谁知盘中餐,各种饭菜皆辛苦,一粒米,需一担水;菜,播种子,施肥,除虫,收割等等

世界正面临粮食短缺,为了解决这危机,人们已朝人工肉类,素肉,人工鸡蛋,各种昆虫用来做粮食代替品,所以,当我们被赐予食物时,好好的珍惜,别浪费。。

I still remember the teacher’s teaching in Taiping Methodist Kindergarten, when we were distributed food or red bean soup, we should say: Thank you and be grateful because we are given food, every piece of food is very precious, We must cherish it and don't waste it!

Growing up, even though I am not a Christian, I still cherish this teaching.  

 Who knows that all kinds of food on our plate are from hard work, a grain of rice requires a load of water; vegetables, sowing seeds, fertilizing, deworming, harvesting, etc...

The world is facing a food shortage. To solve this crisis, people have turned to artificial meat, vegetarian meat, artificial eggs, and various insects as food substitutes. So, when we are given food, we should cherish it and not waste it.

From Einstein's Photons to Solar Panels: A Journey Toward Green Energy

From Einstein's Photons to Solar Panels: A Journey Toward Green Energy

In the early 20th century, the world of physics was in the midst of a revolution. At its heart was Albert Einstein, a young theoretical physicist who would go on to change our understanding of light and energy. His groundbreaking work on the photoelectric effect introduced the concept of photons—discrete packets of light energy. This fundamental discovery not only helped shape quantum theory but also laid the groundwork for modern solar panel technology, a key player in today’s shift toward sustainable, green energy.

The Discovery of Photons

In 1905, Einstein published a paper explaining the photoelectric effect, a phenomenon in which light hitting a metal surface causes the ejection of electrons. While this effect had been observed experimentally, it could not be explained by the classical wave theory of light. Einstein proposed that light was made up of individual quanta of energy, which he called "light quanta"—now known as photons.

According to Einstein’s theory, each photon carries a specific amount of energy based on its frequency. When a photon strikes an electron in a metal surface with enough energy, it transfers its energy to the electron, allowing it to escape from the metal. This idea challenged traditional physics and introduced the particle nature of light, marking the birth of quantum mechanics. For this insight, Einstein received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921.

From Theory to Technology: The Birth of Photovoltaics

Einstein’s photon theory provided the theoretical basis for photovoltaic (PV) technology, which converts light directly into electricity. The first practical photovoltaic cell was developed in 1954 by Bell Labs using silicon, a semiconductor material. When sunlight hits the silicon cell, photons transfer energy to electrons, freeing them from atoms and creating an electric current.

This principle is a direct application of the photoelectric effect described by Einstein. Over the decades, advancements in materials science, engineering, and nanotechnology have improved the efficiency and affordability of solar cells, transforming solar power into a viable energy source.

Solar Panels and the Green Energy Movement

Today, solar panels are at the forefront of the global transition to renewable energy. As the world confronts the challenges of climate change and fossil fuel depletion, solar energy offers a clean, abundant, and sustainable alternative. Modern solar panels, often composed of arrays of photovoltaic cells, are used in homes, businesses, and solar farms to generate electricity without greenhouse gas emissions.

The adoption of solar technology contributes significantly to reducing our carbon footprint and dependence on non-renewable resources. From rooftop installations to large-scale solar farms, these systems are an essential part of the strategy to combat global warming and promote environmental sustainability.

Conclusion

Albert Einstein could not have foreseen all the applications of his theory when he proposed the existence of photons in 1905. Yet, his insights into the nature of light opened the door to one of the most promising renewable energy technologies available today. The journey from Einstein’s theoretical work on the photoelectric effect to the widespread use of solar panels illustrates how fundamental science can lead to transformative technologies. As we harness the power of the sun to create a greener future, we continue to build on the intellectual legacy of one of history’s greatest scientists.

如来之子

<如来之子>一书 - 读后感。。

在之前观看<佛教靠我,星云传承>DVD, 得知觉诚法师曾到巴西弘法,筑成了<如来之子>计划,遇到窃匪,还拿着抢对着法师的太阳穴,幸好最后都化险为夷,这让法师发愿:度不到你这窃匪,但总可以让我来帮助你们的孩子吧。。

在这次的佛诞节,荣幸在佛光文化义卖书摊里,和这一本<如来之子>结缘,让我有机会若身在其境的一走体验法师十五年在巴西的 - 踏上21公里外的生命地图。。

觉诚法师到巴西贫民窟,帮助当地人改变宿命,远离贩毒,暴力和种种的社会问题,在这十五年里,付出了多少汗水和眼泪,法师凡事一步一脚印,做中学,学中做。法师练成了(无生法忍),平时关注每个小细节,筑成了如来寺,而如来之子的计划,更帮助了无数巴西的贫民看到希望,改变了他们的宿命。

在因缘际会下,从早餐孩子们要吃面包,到后来出了名,大街小巷都家喻户晓的Pao de monge 的法师面包🍞,是那么的随缘,也和爱找麻烦的邻居约翰,由怨而成为好邻居。。

大马出生的觉诚法师在陌生的巴西弘法十五年,种种的经历让我真的很佩服,想起我多年前出差到墨西哥,只在那边一个月,已经过得很难熬,法师的坚持心,发愿是如此的强大和慈悲。

我也感觉到很愧疚,到墨西哥只学到几句西班牙语,而法师却学巴西的葡萄牙语远至到大学的程度,真是佩服佩服。。

觉诚法师那<天下无敌>的真诚,是对每一个人都和好,从来没有树立或定义他人为敌人,此宽容大度值得大家学习。

Son of Tathagata

While watching the DVD of "Buddhism depends on me, the inheritance of Xingyun", I learned that Master Juecheng had been to Brazil to preach the Dharma, and built the "Son of Tathagata" plan. She encountered a thief who pointed a gun at the master's temple. Fortunately, she was saved in the end. This made the master vow: I can't save you, a thief, but I can always help your children...

Master Juecheng went to the slums of Brazil to help the locals change their fate and stay away from drug trafficking, violence and various social problems. In these fifteen years, he paid a lot of sweat and tears. The master did everything step by step, learning by doing and doing by learning. The master practiced (endure), paid attention to every little detail, and built the Tathagata Temple. The plan of the Son of Tathagata helped countless poor people in Brazil see the hope and changed their fate.

Under fate, from the children's breakfast to the famous Pao de monge - monk bread 🍞, which is well-known in the streets and alleys, it is so casual, and the trouble-making neighbor John has become a good neighbor from resentment..

The Malaysian-born Master Juecheng has been preaching in the unfamiliar Brazil for fifteen years. I really admire all these experiences. I remember that I went to Mexico on a business trip many years ago. I was there for only one month and it was very difficult. The master's persistence and vows are so powerful and compassionate.

I also feel guilty that I only learned a few words of Spanish in Mexico, while the master learned Brazilian Portuguese to the level of university. I really admire her..

The sincerity of Master Juecheng, who is "invincible in the world" - mean no enermy at all, is to be friendly with everyone and never set up or define others as enemies. This tolerance is worth learning from.
