Our transformation year in 2023 我們的生命大轉化年 癸卯年兔年 9.2.2024
- 從MBC、Yoga TTC、皈依、五年恆常修行、接受輔導治療中治癒了了自己十年的「陽光憂鬱症」，重見光明，身心合一，不欺騙自己
- 因為一位有濫藥背景的客我不懂處理，也想解決自身的痛苦，便去讀書3年，終在香港大學佛法輔導碩士獲得8A Distinction畢業，感激爸爸終於能來我的畢業典禮
- 完成✅三十歲出書的夢想，交了283頁畢業論文給港大
- 完成✅隱修靜修五年——藏修靜養，新一年的目標是法喜自在、弘法豐盛、上求菩提，下化眾生，在香港開開心心地生活
- 四次禪修：梅村兩次、隨釋空師一次、大觀禪師一次
- 到訪不同的寺廟禪修，每日恆常修行
- 隨釋空師和大觀禪師皈依佛法僧和五戒
- 學了念大悲咒，威力之大
- 一月禪營中梅村即興獻琴，十月即興獻箏，達到彈琴的人生目標：獻佛和修行人
- 第一次引導出家人彈古箏、古琴，從他們身上感受到平靜和好學的能量
- 多了素食
- 捐款多了
- 修行時間多了
- Papa Paul 仙遊了，因為疫情和照顧生父我不能遠遊探望，我永遠記住他無條件的愛、積極樂觀、不老頑童、廣交朋友、好學專注、實事求是的冒險和驗證精神，謝謝Papa讓我吃素半個月，49天頌《地藏經》
- 兩次Yoga TTC ： 陰陽瑜伽解剖學、做自己（洗底清空發現搞笑的自己），開始在社區中心教瑜珈
- 在Yoga TTC，內在轉化了很多陰暗面：對性、不道德、資本主義的憎恨，尊重因緣，而我的法名剛好被大觀禪師傳為——敬因
- 從一對一參公案領略到禪法：歸零、不知的心、清明心、啪
- 謝謝馬來西亞道和法師肯定我在禪院裡的分享：佛法難聞、如何在練習正念中從五蘊皆苦體驗五蘊皆空
- 大觀禪師：「因地法門可以幫到你，在因地法門裏修行。你怎修因地法門？only that ？ only that ？你知道1唔知道2！唔知道。我後邊係咩？觀音菩薩？觀音菩薩係咩色？金色，保持呢個清明嘅心去修行。」「多謝師父！」
- 這年除了三皈五戒，也參加了很多拜懺的法會，從每天18拜到現在108拜，也完成了寫拜懺的論文。
- 爸爸媽媽修和了關係，結束20年訴落不是，反互相照顧，也終於探訪了我們的房子，爸爸這年一個月進醫院兩次，兔年末醫生和社工要求他搬去老人院，想不到爸爸搬到我工作室旁的老人院。照顧爸爸大家都辛苦，跟媽媽擁抱了，我終於學習到如何跟心心患心病的父母相處而不受影響，並化一切為愛和智慧，做不到也原諒自己，休息一下
- 電子斷捨離：早已練習不觀看，2023年二月起不使用FB、IG，享受不用對人交代的自由，更多時間臨在經歷，現在使用只是為了工作、紀錄、傳法;開姑有能力有意識地作出選擇：用或不用，為了什麼
- 收到學生考獲八級優秀消息，今年我們無為而為地，在「第十屆國際音樂節」和「第八屆國際古箏比賽」中獲佳績，古琴愛徒又把金牌送給我了，師生也獎項概念看空，自然來去，有能力便順便參賽，未有能力繼續享受音樂，能力培養、喜歡享受音樂和養生有愛最重要。感恩學生的愛！
- 第一次完成填詞工作邀請
- 工作室在年頭終於完成的裝修，小店低調賣古樹茶、琴、音叉，謝謝客戶、茶客、學生的支持
- 今年有六個療癒輔導客戶：兩個香港人、三個內地人、一個法國人，我發覺學生和客戶都是我的老師和恩人
- 旅居高雄一個月半月，去阿里山學造茶，隨陳家祥博士學易經、艾灸、三投法和茶席美學；香港學茶療
- 隨來港蘇州道士學習絲弦琴體驗；到台灣隨如一琴舍張佳青老師學《普庵咒》和《憶故人》；隨予璇老師深造古箏《雲裳訴》、《陳杏元和番》、《行者》；在香港有幸隨唐建垣博士學上弦，獲益良多
- 遊了日本關西和鹿兒島及富士山、台北高雄、澳門、廣州尋根
- 再學了日本書法：彩色伝筆
- 認識了非常多了好朋友，服務了過百的客戶，疫情後也與很多好友相聚
- 今年會見了很多高人！感恩！
- 用了一年，才完成話筒贊助的Youtube影片，我真不適合做Youtuber
- 挑戰很多的一年，崇山禪師：「好的處境是壞的處境，壞的處境是好的處境」
- 學習了放下對老師的完美幻想、練習Say no和明確地設立界線
- 不少學生移民了，我們考慮和旅居體驗後，會繼續留港照顧父母和修行
- 今年很難得，看了三場古琴音樂會：蘇思棣老師「普安咒」講座、德愔琴室絲弦秋琴會、姚公白鋼絲弦、包兵絲弦；一場現代美學和東方心靈結合得完美的萬幸古箏演奏會。十年後，與蘇思棣、劉楚華老師再合照了。邦也開始學古琴了！
- 正想嘗試瑜伽時，朋友懷孕請代課，第一次有工資地教瑜伽了
- 發人深省的同修分享：「語言能傷害人，也能幫助人。」學佛後，讀文學的我名白語言是概念，「名義虛妄莫沈醉」，一直修靜修靜默，同修的話把我拉回中道。
- 這年修行得太辛苦了，透過看鍋、麵包機影片和甜寵劇中和一下
- 夫妻關係的核心問題——兩人對事件歸根究底爭辯起來脾氣大到不太吵架，知道便好，休息休息
- 斷捨離了一些，謝謝。
- 感恩古家的愛，我愛老爺奶奶爸爸媽媽！
- 電子斷捨離期間，Youtube自然增長到瀏覽量有13萬，Wordpress也達1萬，謝謝啦。
感恩生命的轉化、所遇到的貴人，所有的學生、住客、療癒客、茶客，所有老師、生命的轉化，與我有緣的，與我無緣的。我們去多次日本、旅居台灣，出入平安，體驗生活，我們決定在香港生活多幾年，感恩父母的修和，感恩老爺奶奶的愛和包容，感恩父親進老人院得到安頓，實在太多太多，願以此功德，迴向於一切！
新一年祝諸事順遂，身心康泰，法喜自在。
