It arouse interest by injecting fear! <br /><br />Ultimately, if u know urself well enough, the best way is always way that suit you best and as natural as possible. Diff people diff. <br /><br />Anyway, a friend of mine has already published many mini books online. So what he did was create a topic say "health and beauty", just find some cheap ghost writers in Philippines online to write few thousands words, then send for proof reading, and find someone to design the cover. Then last and easiest step: just put "your name as author!"<br /><br />He do not think this is cheating and wanted to do this for a living! <br /><br />well well well... human beings! hahahaha <br />Rolf Sueyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10723925075715114650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897513886211197509.post-30670085498739297142016-08-06T08:52:49.640+08:002016-08-06T08:52:49.640+08:00CW,

Despite being considered one of the lowest forms of wit, sarcasm actually requires considerable mental powers to produce.

We can always ignore or clarify if we want. Somemore ur poke too mild lar...

Here its 龙蛇混杂 and 藏龙卧虎!<br /><br /><br />I thought I can just express my idea of "poking" with a Buddhist story I vaguely remembers...<br /><br />I thought most Singaporeans cheena half-past-six; and even if cheena powderful, this Buddhist story can't be in the textbooks or official reading lists of our schools.<br /><br />Surely I can get away with a bit of "creativity"; just as long the gist of the story remains the same? Or so I thought! <br /><br /><br />What do you know? I was found out by a Christian of all people!? <br /> <br />LOL!<br /><br /><br /><br />P.S. I got some interesting new readers recently. <br /><br />One of them feedback I like to "poke" people...<br /><br />Just revealing more of my Johari window so they can feel more comfortable "sparring" with me. <br /><br />My "poke" is just a technique to trust but verify; there's no malice :)Singapore Man of Leisurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13774067113884418001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897513886211197509.post-23475213920177308582016-08-05T22:20:41.043+08:002016-08-05T22:20:41.043+08:00hahahah...

I happen to hear the story before and remember that the person involved was not 李白 but 苏东坡.<br /><br />Here is the story in Mandarin:<br /><br /> 据说,苏东坡在瓜州任职的时候,与一江之隔的金山寺的住持佛印禅师交往笃深,他们常在一起谈禅论道。有一天,苏东坡写了一首诗,遣书僮送过江去,请佛印禅师评点。诗是这样写的:“稽首天中天,毫光照大千。八风吹不动,端坐紫金莲。”意思是说:我的心已经不再受到外在世界的诱惑了,好比佛陀端坐莲花座上一样。诗中的“八风”是指人们生活中常遇到的“称、讥、毁、誉、利、衰、苦、乐”八种境况。<br /><br />佛印看了诗后,笑而不语,信手在上面批了两个字,就叫书僮带回去。苏东坡打开一看,上面批着“放屁”两个大字,恼怒不已,立马乘船过江去找禅师理论。<br /><br />此时,禅师已站在江边等他。苏东坡一见面就气呼呼地说:“禅师!我们是至交,我的诗,你看不上没关系,也不能侮辱人呀!”<br /><br />禅师平静地说:“我什么时候侮辱你啦?”<br />“这不是侮辱人是什么? 今天你一定要给我个说法。”<br />禅师顿时哈哈大笑起来:“还‘八风吹不动’呢!怎么‘一屁就打过江’了呢?”<br />苏东坡这才恍然大悟,惭愧不已。<br /><br />Sorry for being so blunt.Sanye ◎ 三页https://www.blogger.com/profile/10864265445567780610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6897513886211197509.post-90451674476490089792016-08-05T12:30:45.887+08:002016-08-05T12:30:45.887+08:00CW,
