My mum when she was young, look like model la, such a beauty!Revealing of Yeecheng life ( part 1 )
Here I am to share my 17 years of life to everyone who read my blog. Some may start to self mumbling thinking if I’m crazy, I’m only 17 and what great story I can share? My answer to everyone doubts of my action is that one don’t have to live till old to share their story of life. It the process of learning of life that make your life fulfilling, full of lesson to be learn and not by judging how long you have live in this miserable world. So what if you have live till old but you learn nothing about life?
My life isn’t a movie, not as thrilling, not as exciting but my life is full of lesson to be learned as I had gone through the lowest point of life. What make me realize that my life is a lesson? What make me to learn and live a holy life now? It my religion, in fact the God Buddha I’m praying to is not call religion, but a “Believe” instead. A believe that this is the only way back to heaven after we died, it gave me so many turning point throughout my 17 years of life and I’m prepare to share to everyone who is interested.
I will start from 19 years ago before I was born. In 1988, my parent had just married and they wanted to have a baby so much but their “rock and roll” in bed just couldn’t work and so there is “no product” after working so hard, oh my poor daddy. A year later, 1989, there is a senior in our religion advice my parent “only when you both open a prayer hall at home and God Buddha will naturally send you a child, no worry”. So my parent builds up their strong faith for laomu(老母) and open up a prayer hall in june-aug 1989. True enough, my mum got pregnant as soon as the prayer hall had officially opened up at home, so I was born in 25/1/1990. Both my parent are vegetarian so am I, so there were many of people who is non-vegetarian scolded my mum for being a vegetarian even she’s pregnant, saying that the baby will not be healthy. In opposite, I’m real cute and healthy la! And on the second day I was born, daddy brought me home for religion ceremony (it a enlightenment of life ceremony, it the same meaning when those Christian go for Baptist), the doctor said that my mum and me were real healthy and there is no need to stay in hospital any longer. During the ceremony, name is needed so to tell laomu(老母)this person will be enlighten but I’m only a second day old baby, I had no name so the master had my name make on the spot, Cheong Yee Cheng (钟 易 成), this name mean that hoping for whatever I do will be smooth and easy to success. On the first anniversary of my prayer hall, I was only half year old and I’m still as cute and cubby! (action only but true lei) Because of me, there was really a lot of people came to my house for prayer hall anniversary but their real motive is to see me (it true, my mum told me de) and seeing me so healthy and face full of radiant, they was fully convince that vegetarian diet is indeed healthy, so there is many people gone for enlighten ceremony and save by God Buddha, laomu(老母).
Ever since young, my connection with God Buddha was strong. When I was 3 years old, I was so playful and I crash into some glass and nearly die if my hand weren’t supporting my body or I move a little bit because the four direction of my head will all sharp glasses, this incident happened at home where the prayer hall was situated. At 5 years old, a Sunday afternoon where my parent and younger brother were taking a nap, but I was sitting alone right in front of the prayer hall, I was purely staring at all the Buddha statue. Suddenly, I saw my God Buddha ( his photo in photo frame , 师 尊) was smiling at me so fatherly and I was totally shock and stunned even if he smile so warmly at me. I ran to the bedroom and told my parent. How funny. My mum was really hot temper in the past, she got work up easily and canned me and my brother like mad, so there is once my mum canned me and I shout at her “if I know I was born to be beaten by you, then I rather stay at heaven and not coming down to this world for suffering!” my mum shock and drop the cane immediately. These are the three story of my connection with God Buddha.
