＜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.
