傍牌手Mudra of the Shield

「若為辟除一切虎狠諸惡獸者,當於傍牌手。」

As explained in the text the practice of this mudra is designed to word off all malign forces.

歡喜自在,日日是好日

若惡緣叩門,除了安忍

還需要諸佛的守護與祝福

讓需要祝福的人平安

讓洪水猛獸般的惡緣止息

願一切轉為善,轉為清淨圓滿

Happy and at ease,

Every day is a propitious one.

But when bad luck comes knocking at the door

We need more than quiet endurance;

We need the protection and blessing of the Buddhas.

Let those in need of blessings find peace.

Stop the floods of bad karma

That flow as fierce as wild beasts.

Let all become peaceful,

Cleansed and fulfilled.


【祝福】

有些惡運,真像洪水猛獸。虎狼惡獸,不只存在叢林裡,也存在我們心裡。受重傷而覺得被狠狠咬一口的時刻,這時,我們真希望有個靠山、有道防火牆、有個溫柔而威猛的守護力量。信佛的人相信,諸佛菩薩的加持,是心的靠山、生命的防火牆、一切不安時刻的守護力量。傍牌手是種祝福,祝福我們在一切逆境中,有貴人相助、善緣相護,轉違緣為大吉祥。

傍牌手也是種提醒,求佛更要求己:真正的靠山是自己,自己站起來,立定腳跟,勇敢得像座山,才能擋得住一切風險;真正的防火牆是自己,唯有自己能防制怒火漫燒,阻止怨氣發作,引來生命不必要的森林大火;真正的守護力量是自己,你決定讓自己平安喜樂,就沒有什麼外境能讓你緊鎖眉頭
