【玳瑚師父佛學論】 《善書光明遍照》
A Virtuous Book Radiates Brightly In All Directions (English version below)
何謂善書?善書就是由「善知識」,所撰寫的書,而這本書,一定要能「放光」,讓看了這本書的人會放下屠刀,改過遷善,就算不是如此,看了也可減少煩惱、啟開智慧、與人為善,等等。
善書一定有善神擁戴,善神擁戴,也一定有祥光降佈。若家中有人最近比較煩、比較不順,恭敬閱讀,然後放在其方位,是人能轉逆為順。其實妳你祇要請回家中,善書光明遍照是一定的。
出書原本就是吾心底老早就很想做的一件事情。吾也一直都在等待機緣。一位「老」弟子近幾年一直都在助印善書,也和好一些佛友一起出錢出力,並將善書分派到法會、圖書館、學府、監獄,甚至海外的道場流通結緣。某日,她突發奇想,問是否能將吾部份的文章結集,出版一本書,借此引導更多有緣人認真看待自己的生命。吾知道寫書弘法的機緣到了。

What is a virtuous book? It is one which is written by a wise and virtuous person with the right knowledge and morals to lead sentient beings out of sufferings. This book illuminates those who read it and influences them to mend their evil ways. At the very least, it should alleviate their afflictions, inspire their wisdom, promote kindness among people, etc.
A virtuous book has the protection of the good devas and with Their protection, an aura of auspicious light descends to guard the book. If there is a family member who is feeling vexed as life has not been easy for him or her recently, he or she can respectfully read the book and afterwards, placed it in his or her position (according to the Trigram) in the house. He or she will experience a change of fortune. In fact, as soon as you bring the book into your house, the auspicious light from the book shall definitely radiate in all directions.
To write a book has been something on my mind since a long time ago. I have always been waiting for the opportune moment. A longtime disciple of mine has been sponsoring the printing of virtuous books for the past few years. Together with many Dharma friends, they put in the money and effort to distribute the books to puja ceremonies, libraries, tertiary institutions, prisons and overseas temples, so that more people have a chance to come into contact with the virtuous books. One day, she had a eureka moment and asked if she could collate some of my writings into a book. She hoped for more people to learn how to make better use of their human lives, through my book. There and then, I knew my opportunity to write a book to propagate the Dharma has arrived.
