老和尚携小和尚游历,途遇一条河见一女子正想过河，却又不敢过。
老和尚便主动背该女子趟过了河然后放下女子与小和尚继续赶路。
小和尚不禁一路嘀咕：师父怎么了，竟敢背一女子过河？
一路走，一路想最后终于忍不住了说：
师父，你犯戒了怎么背了女人
老和尚叹道：我早已放下，你却还放不下!

天德宫
AN END TO CHILDLESS WOMEN'S PLIGHT
A CAR was passing slowly along Jalan Gelanggang in Malacca. Its driver and a lady passenger were looking anxiovsly at both sides of the road for signs of a temple called Ong Teck Kong. Their friends had told them to come to this temple to pray to the 'Goddess' there for fulfiling their dreams.
Suddenly, the lady shouted, "Look! That's the temple." The man braked his car and, after parking it on one of the parking lots in front of the temple ,the couple alighted and entered the temple.
The temple's caretaker greeted them, and after she had enquired from them what they had come to pray for, she instructed the couple to place their flowers and fruits on the altar. She went on to instruct them on how to pray to the 'Goddess' called '/Chu Sing Niang Niang' or 'Fate-fulfiling Godess'. The couple followed exactly what was told to them.
The couple knelt in front of the 'Goddess' and they prayed earnestly. "Oh, Merciful Goddess, please help us to have a baby of our own. We have been married for six years, but we're unable to have a baby. Please help us..."
When they had finished their prayer, they got up and after making a small sonation to the temple, they bid goodbye to the caretaker. They were assured by the temple's caretaker that their dreams would come true. Expectant.
Four months later, the same couple returned with offerings for the 'Chu Sing Niang Niang'. The lady had become pregnant after her visit to the temple. Her dreams of becoming a mother had finally become a reality!
Everyday, many couples of these similar cases have come to the temple to pray to the 'Goddess' for children, and many of them would return months later to thank the 'Goddess' for making their dreams come true.
Recently visit to this temple and spoke with its caretaker, Madam Gan Siew Keng, 48, on the history and the many miracles attributed to the help of the 'Goddess' there. Madam Gan told NT:"The history of this temple dated over one hundred years ago. It was started by a person called Mr. Chan. As far as i can remember, my uncle was its caretaker before and after the Japanese Occupation. After his death, my mother took over and when my mother passed away about fifteen years ago, I became the present caretaker." "There are two 'Goddesses' in this temple who each speciallises in fulfiling the needs of the devotees. The two are known as 'Chu Sing Niang Niang' and 'Golden Flower Goddess' respectively. The former helps these who are unable to conceive babies; while the latter helps those to choose the sex of their babies when they are in the initial stage of their pregnancy.
"For those love-lom people, they can also come to pray to the 'Goddesses' for success in love and marriage. Miraculously, many of those who have come here to pray for love and marriage have returned jubilantly to thank the 'Goddesses' for fulfiling their dreams. The 'Goddesses' really help those who are sincere in their prayer.
"We have visitors coming from as far as from singapore, Johore Baru, Seremban, Kuala Lumpur and Penang. Many other temples throughout the country have even recommended our temple to their devotees on matters concerning pregnanc, determining the sx of the babies and for love and marriage.
"What the devotees need to brng when they come here to pray is flowers and fruits only. There were devotees who offered "red eggs to the 'Goddesses' on the full-moon days of their babies."
天德宫是青云亭理事会所管辖的一间庙宇。天德宫供奉的是注生娘娘(管生小孩的神明)及金花娘娘(管婚姻的神明)。
华人大多数都是信神的，他们膜拜的神灵，很多是源自深入民间的神话故事中的人物。他们拜神都心怀敬畏，但却从未形成一种有系统的宗教。他们的信仰完全是随 缘的，并不皈依何教何系，他们都会对冥冥中的神灵求赐家宅平安，福寿运通，因此家家户户拜神，世世代代拜神，至於所拜的神是何方神圣，拜神的真义何在？却 是很少人去深究。
根据我国宪法第十一条(一)项条文规家，人人皆有信仰及奉行其本身宗教之权利。因此华人在马六甲，很久以来，就有热心的善男信女兴建众多的庙宇，供奉各方神位作为膜拜的场所。
在马六甲市区鸡场街就有一座供奉女神的“天德宫”，从外观看来，相信是由住宅改建，由於多年失修的缘故，该庙已不复存在昔日之金碧辉煌的光彩，如今已是引不起人们的注目。
“天德宫”内殿 供奉两尊女神的塑像，一位是注生娘娘，另一位是金花娘娘，前者是由专掌人间生男育女之职务，後者则专管男女结合之婚姻。这两位娘娘虽说比不上观音娘娘和天后娘娘的最孚众望，但是看来和蔼与悲，令人肃然起敬。
注生娘娘与金花娘娘
注生娘娘系来自印度北部，民众奉祀很是普遍，根据印度释教大乘(MAHAYANA)上说注生娘娘就是梵文“HARATI”，即送子女菩萨。据说这位女神约在第八世纪，她的奉祀在印度已失去了地位，实际上在第十二世纪中，已经完全消失了。
这位女神传入中国，约在第五世纪，经过若干世纪后，已经由哈拉谛女菩萨转为注生娘娘，也许对中国人来说，注生娘娘是比较易於接受。不知怎样，中国人却把注 生娘娘也是哈拉谛女菩萨与观音娘娘梵名阿伐罗吉底斯哇拉菩萨(BUDDHIST BODHISATTVA AVALOKITESWARA)相混合，以致后来造成观音娘娘承继注生娘娘的地位。不过在雕像与绘图中，两位女神的相貌，截然不同。
红鸾星宿转世
金花娘娘的金身被置放在大殿中堂，受下奉祀，亦有很久的历史。俗传金花娘娘系天上红鸾星宿转世，下凡人间为红娘，专为天下有情人结合眷属，王母娘娘念红娘对人间有功，颁赐“金花”给她，人们从此对称这位女神为“金花娘娘”。
据说注生娘娘和金花娘娘都能有求必应，很是灵验。农历三月廿日与十月初十是注生娘娘和金花娘娘的禾秋诞，是日许多善男信女来此祈求结婚或生子都能得愿，因此杳客大部份都是远道闻名从南北马各州府来膜拜求愿，或答谢神恩，车水马龙，结绎不绝，香火也就日夜不断。
现任的主持是位年届四十余岁的颜月雪女士，她也身兼庙祝，打理一切杂务。她告笔者说，此庙是由马六甲甲必丹曾六官的后人所倡建的，建立的日期，已无从查起，只有从神坛上刻上的“光绪拾年甲申夏月旦立”来推测大概已有百多年历史，应该算是属于具有百年历史性的古庙。
男婚女嫁前生注定
颜女士也告知，她的伯父在她幼年时已在此庙担任主持多年，迄至世界第二次大战结束不久，父逝世后由她母亲继任主持，一直过了十五年，待她母亲逝世后，主持的任务就落在她身上。
昔时男婚女嫁都是认定皆由前生注定，这是旧式婚姻的宿命论，使人对强迫的婚姻不敢有所反抗，婚后有痛苦，也只好认命，算是前世未修，此生应受恶报，所谓燕尔新婚，该是男女百世修来的造化，今夕才能有福共枕眠。
如今，新旧时代不同，婚姻观念也不同，新潮男女多把受情当儿戏，婚姻的离合也极其随便，尤其是人们在遭受经济不景气的影响下，大多实行节育，至於那些不育者，更可籍助人工受孕。
总而言之，结婚生子是人生大事，可以借用古人的话：“后生可畏，焉知来者之不如今也。”来作结论

黄瓜山，萤火虫。
六 月十日，在雪隆老人俱乐部的安排下。我第一次去kuala selangor看萤火虫，第一次知道原来马来西亚也有这么一个地方。首先我们去黄瓜山（皇家山）bukit melawati。看猴子，看灯塔，看大炮，看观月台，坐都都车再瞭望kuala selangor的河口（从山上）。过后去吃海鲜，虽然有点失望因为没有螃蟹吃但也不错。可以尝试不一样的口味。然后去kampung kuantan看萤火虫，在月圆之下萤火虫的微弱的灯显得微不足道。幸好船夫为了不让我们扫兴，已经尽力将船靠向红树让我们观赏数上的萤火虫。所以 说。。。马来西亚你走完了吗？Bukit Melawati, Kuala Selangor.
10th June, under selangor old man club organization. I was have my first trip visit kuala Selangor and fire flies. First impression to know this place. We went to bukit melawati at begin, we catch monkey, old canon, tower, islam moon watcher place with funny car. From there we can see the more clear picture with Selangor river. After this, we went to seafood restaurant taking our dinner. Too bad they are out of stock with crab, anyway I had tried different taste on seafood. Lastly we visit kampong kuantan, a place to public watching fire flies at river side. Although the night with full moon, the driver keep let us have close touch with fire flies. Well… How much you know about

我的猪笼草
经过长途跋涉到关丹森林找到那么一棵猪笼草。可以说是犯溅。。。花店一大堆却不要买，跑到老远地去采。但也可以说我感受整个过程，一个属于我的植物。这品种是Nepenthes gracilis type green，真希望可以看到它长大，长出猪圆玉润的猪笼。
上星期为了帮干妈找河花，跑了几条河。终于在Duyong的河上找到，但是人却掉下去沼泽地。手脚都沾满了黑漆漆的烂泥，还要驾车子回家冲洗再冲凉X2。（烂泥的味道好臭）
My pet, Nepenthes.
I got it from far far away to kuantan jungle. So terrible that I can get it from any garden farm at melaka. But I decided to find the one for myself even I spent more petrol cost on it. That's fun and really good experience on plant searching. This specie is Nepenthes Gracillis type green. Wish it growing well.
Last week I was offered myself to my god mother to get lilian. Searching few rivers at melaka finally found it at Duyong river. Too bad i was fallen in to river when i try to pick it. Worst thing is I had to drive back to my home for bath X 2times get the smell off.
