家家彌陀,戶戶觀音。這句話所言极是啊!吾,玳瑚師父,客人群中,大半都是家中有供奉,南無觀世音菩薩的。甚至,有很多的客人,還是菩薩的引領,而來嚮吾請教,化解障碍的良方的呢!
明日乃菩薩的聖誕,沐浴著新淨衣服,供上香花燈茶菓,虔敬的嚮祂懺悔,過去因身口意所犯的,種種大小諸惡業,跟著恭唸一百零八,或一千零八十遍,南無大慈大悲觀世音菩薩摩訶薩,並囘嚮於自己或他人。
菩薩千百亿化身。菩薩悲願深厚。妳你祇要一心虔誠,頂禮,供養,恭唸其聖號及禱之,菩薩沒有不應的道理。更何況,祂本就是息災的本尊啊!要知道,任何一種狀況,出現在妳你的生命中,妳你都有可能,視它爲妳你的災難呀!大家好好地把握,這慈悲尊的聖誕,好好的淨化淨化自己。

"Every family prays to the Amitabha Buddha, every household prays to the Guan Yin Bodhisattva". This is such a true phrase! Among the many clients of Master Dai Hu, more than half of them have a statue of the Guan Yin Bodhisattva at home. Furthermore, many of them were led to me by the Bodhisattva to solve their woes!
Tomorrow is the Holy Birthday of Guan Yin Bodhisattva. We can bath and change into clean clothing before making offerings of incense, flowers, tea and fruits to repent our misdeeds, big and small, arising from our Body, Speech and Mind, in front of Bodhisattva. Following that, we can recite His Holy Name, "Namo Da Ci Da Bei Guan Shi Yin Pu Sa Mo He Sa"(南無大慈大悲觀世音菩薩摩訶薩) , for 108 or 1080 times, and dedicate this merits to ourselves or others.
The Bodhisattva has countless manifestations and His Vows are immeasurably deep. As long as you are sincere in paying homage, making offerings, reciting his Holy Name, and saying your prayers, the Bodhisattva has no reason not to grant your wishes. Furthermore, He is the Root Deity for the Eradication of All Calamities! You must know that any situation in your life can potentially be a misfortune! I hope everybody will treasure this opportunity with this compassionate Bodhisattva and truly cleanse yourself.
