CHỮA CẬN THỊ BẰNG PHƯƠNG PHÁP DIỆN CHẨN- Nghiem Xuan Lam

(16) Nghiem Xuan Lam - CHỮA CẬN THỊ BẰNG PHƯƠNG PHÁP DIỆN CHẨN Đây là...



CHỮA CẬN THỊ BẰNG PHƯƠNG PHÁP DIỆN CHẨN
Đây là một phương pháp ít tốn kém và gần như không có tác dụng phụ, dễ học, dễ làm nên mọi người có thể dùng nó để tự phòng và tự chữa bệnh trong gia đình, giảm thiểu sự lệ thuộc vào thuốc men, bác sĩ và bệnh viện. Cách chữa đơn giản nhưng đem lại hiệu quả cao, nên nó được mọi người tin dùng không chỉ ở Việt Nam mà còn được nhiều nước trên thế giới sử dụng.
Cận thị là một tật khúc xạ gây rối loạn chức năng thị giác và chiếm một vị trí đáng kể trong nhóm tật về thị giác, đặc biệt ở học sinh và người lao động trẻ.
Cận thị làm giảm sức nhìn cho con người, gây cản trở, khó khăn trong công việc hàng ngày.
Phương pháp Dùng “Diện chẩn” để chữa cận thị có thể trả lại đôi mắt bình thường cho người bị cận trong một thời gian ngắn mà không cần mổ xẽ hay dùng thuốc.
Ở trang này theo yêu cầu của một số bạn Lâm xin chia sẽ cách chữa cận thị từ 4 độ trở xuống mà Lâm đã học qua ở môn “Diện chẩn” cho những ai muốn chữa cận thị mà chưa từng học qua phương pháp “Diện chẩn” vẫn có thể tự chữa cận thị cho mình hoặc giúp chữa cho người thân.
I Phương pháp chữa cận thị:
1- Day ấn bộ huyệt chữa cận thị ở phác đồ 1 (hình 3) .
2- Gạch đồ hình về mắt ở tay và trán (hình 4, 5 và 5a)
3- Lăn, mat xa kích thích vùng huyệt quanh ổ mắt (hình 6 và 7) 
II Dụng cụ thực hành.
Để chữa cận thị các bạn cần có những dụng cụ sau:
- 1 cây lăn dò đồng nhỏ, mua ở những cửa hàng bán dụng cụ y khoa (xem hình 1) 
- 1 lọ dầu cù là.
- Phác đồ 1 chữa cận thị (hình 3)
III Cách thực hành chữa cận thị.
1- Cách day ấn:
Đầu tiên bạn phải biết cách day ấn. Bạn cầm cây “lăn dò đồng nhỏ” dùng phía đầu bằng inox ấn và đẩy ngay vị trí huyệt, khi đẩy từ điễm xuất phát đến điễm đẩy không quá 0,5cm, thời gian day là 30 giây cho mỗi huyệt. Khi day ấn, cây day ấn luôn thẳng góc với da mặt. Xem hình cách cầm cây day ấn ở (hình 2)
2- Có hình phác đồ 1 chữa cận thị trước mặt.
Nhìn kỹ các đường ngang dọc trong hình để định vị huyệt cho đúng, các huyệt gồm: 34-+, 6, 1, 127, 267, 130, 3, 358 (xem hình 3)
Nếu chưa quen huyệt, lúc đầu có thể tìm huyệt rồi dùng bút lông chấm tất cả vị trí huyệt đó lên mặt cho dễ nhìn, sau đó so lại với hình vẽ xem đã chấm chuẩn chưa, rồi thực hành nhìn theo dấu chấm có sẵn mà day ấn, khi nào nhớ rồi thì lần sau day ấn khỏi chấm dấu.
Chú ý:
Khi huyệt có ghi dấu -+ có nghĩa là yêu cầu huyệt này làm bên trái lẫn bên phải. Trên mặt các huyệt đều đối xứng với nhau ở mặt trái và mặt phải, nếu thấy huyệt chỉ ghi số….không có dấu trừ hay cộng thì ta nên day huyệt mặtbên trái như trong hình vẽ.
3 -Thực hành chữa cận:
Đầu tiên dùng phía đầu inox của dụng cụ chấm vào dầu cù là . Day ấn theo thứ tự các huyệt :
34+-, 1, 127, 130, 6, 267, 3, 358 (xem vị trí huyệt ở hình 3)
Mỗi huyệt day ấn khoảng 30 giây. Do đầu cây day ấn có chấm dầu cù là mỗi khi day một huyệt, nên sau khi day được một lúc các huyệt sẽ ấm lên. Day ấn một vòng theo thứ tự các huyệt của phác đồ chữa cận thị xong, ta sẽ day ấn lập lại như vậy thêm 2 vòng nữa. Mỗi ngày làm 3 lần.
4- Gạch đồ hình mắt:
Tiếp theo dùng que dò phía đầu inox gạch một đoạn vào đồ hình mắt ở tay và trán như trong hình minh họa:
- Gạch đồ hình mắt ở ngón út bên tay trái trước, độ dài khoảng 1cm, rồi chuyển qua gạch ngón út bên tay phải, Mỗi ngón làm 40 cái (xem hình 4)
- Gạch đồ hình trên lòng bàn tay, nằm dưới ngón giữa, độ dài 3cm. Gạch tay trái xong chuyển sang gạch tay phải. Gạch liên tục 40 cái cho mỗi tay (xem hình 5)
- Gạch đồ hình mắt trên trán, độ dài 2cm, gạch bên trái rồi chuyển sang gạch bên phải. Gạch liên tục 40 cái (xem hình 5a)
5- Lăn mat xa mắt
Sau khi day huyệt xong dùng cây lăn phía đầu có trục gai bằng đồng, lăn quanh ổ mắt theo cách từ trong ra ngoài từ trên xuống dưới. Lăn ổ mắt trái rồi chuyển sang lăn ổ mắt phải, mỗi bên lăn 30 vòng, nhìn theo hình mũi tên (xem hình 6 và 7) Cần mạnh tay hơn khi lăn, thời gian không hạn chế. Mục đích là đưa máu lên nuôi mắt và cũng là để tác động vào những Sinh huyệt quanh mắt giúp cho mắt nhanh sáng. Mỗi ngày có thể mát xa mắt nhiều lần, nhưng tốt nhất là cách một giờ lại mát xa.
Lăn mắt trái
Lăn mắt phải
6 / Tập nhìn xa:
Trong thời gian chữa cận phải tập nhìn xa. Mỗi ngày đều phải tập nhìn xa nhiều lần. Mục đích tập nhìn xa là để khôi phục khả năng tự điều chỉnh của mắt. Như phóng tầm mắt nhìn con chim bay, nhìn chóp nhà cao tầng xa xa hoặc đọc dòng chữ tên của cửa hàng hay chữ trên tấm bảng hiệu ở phía xa mút tầm mắt.
7/ Kiêng cữ:
Khi chữa cận thị, nên tập bỏ kính và nghỉ xem tivi, ít mở máy vi tính, không chơi điện tử, nghĩ tạm học hành, không đọc sách báo trong thời gian chữa. Trung bình mỗi ngày làm 3 lần theo cách hướng dẫn ở trên. Tập trung cho việc chữa để mau khỏi. Thời gian chữa hết cận chỉ khoảng 40 – 50 ngày cho người làm đúng và làm tích cực như hướng dẫn. Nếu thực hành lơ là việc chữa sẽ kéo dài lâu hơn nhiều. Còn nếu các bạn siêng hơn, thời gian làm nhiều hơn thì kết quả sẽ nhanh hơn.
Khỏi cận rồi cũng phải nghỉ 5 đến 10 ngày nữa rồi mới trở lại sinh hoạt bình thường. Mục đích phải kiêng là để chống tái cận. Nếu không may tái cận, chữa lại vẫn khỏi nhưng tốn thời gian nhiều.
Trong khi chữa cũng kiêng ăn cay, nóng như riềng, ớt, sả, tỏi, thịt chó và một số trái cây như sầu riêng, xoài… vì nhớ câu “Vượng hỏa mắt mờ”, cũng kiêng ăn lạnh như kem, đá, nước dừa, nước có ga công nghiệp, nước để trong tủ lạnh… đề phòng hại thận, thị lực cũng giảm.
Đôi khi có trường hợp người bị cận thị còn mắc thêm một số bệnh khác về mắt như: Xuất huyết võng mạc, viêm giác mạc, thì cần phải được điều trị bệnh này trước khi chữa cận thị, nếu không khi áp dụng phương pháp này sẽ không đạt kết quả tốt.
Trên đây là cách chữa cận thị mà Lâm đã học qua. Nếu bạn nào trên 4 độ xin chờ bài Chữa cận thị ở Phác đồ 2. Bài này Lâm chia sẽ với các bạn những kiến thúc đã học của mình qua cách minh họa cách chữa cho các bạn dễ thực hành và Lâm cũng mong nhận được sự đóng góp từ các bạn, để có thể làm tốt hơn, giúp ích mọi người có được sức khỏe tốt góp phần nâng cao cuộc sống. Chúc các bạn tự chữa cận thị thành công.
PS : Dùng bổ sung 4000 IU vitamin A,1000-1500mg Omega3 / ngày.
Tai sao phải dùng vi tamin A? Vì 1 phân tử ánh sáng cần kết hợp với một phân tử VitaminA mới thành tín hiệu điện để dưa vào não xử lý.

Vimalkirti was one of the strangest people who came in contact with Gautam Buddha. He never became a sannyasin -- he remained a layman -- but even Gautam Buddha respected him.
He used to come to listen to Gautam Buddha, and he was meditating, but he could not see that there was any need to renounce the world and become a sannyasin and a beggar.
He was such a genius that he was the first layman to become enlightened. The first sannyasin to become enlightened was Manjushri, and the first layman to become enlightened was Vimalkirti.
But Vimalkirti was a very strange person. For a few days he had not come, and Buddha was concerned ... is he sick, or is there some trouble? -- why is he not coming? So he asked that one of his disciples should offer to go to Vimalkirti -- he lived in the city -- to enquire about his health and why he is not coming.
But out of ten thousand sannyasins, nobody wanted to go, for the simple reason that even to say hello to Vimalkirti was dangerous! He would make it a point of great discussion -- "To whom are you saying hello?
Are you certain I am not a dream? Can you give me any evidence that I am not a dream? If you see me in a dream, will you recognize that it is a dream and not reality?"
He used to put everybody in such a corner -- on any point. If you didn't say anything and you simply tried to avoid him, he would say, "Hey, where are you going? Is there any place to go? The truth is right here now. Where are you going?" He had tortured almost everybody.
Finally one disciple said, "I will go. Whatever he does I will take it easy, but he has to be asked after." When the disciple went he said, "Gautam Buddha has sent me to enquire about your health. As I came here, just outside your house, your family said that you are sick."
Rather than answering him, the sick Vimalkirti said, "Sick? About whom are you talking?
I don't exist at all, how can I be sick? To be sick you first have to exist -- what do you think? I have disappeared long ago in my meditations. So just go back and tell Gautam Buddha, 'Vimalkirti is no more -- there is no question of sickness or health.'" The disciple was very much disturbed, because if he tells Gautam Buddha that Vimalkirti is no more, he will think that perhaps he has died. So he told Vimalkirti, "This statement can be misunderstood. If I say simply that Vimalkirti is no more, the obvious meaning will be that Vimalkirti is dead."
He said, "That's the right meaning! Vimalkirti is dead. It was a phony name which disappeared with meditation.
When I was born I was not Vimalkirti, and when I was reborn in meditation I again became nameless, formless -- it is perfectly right. You can even say that Vimalkirti is dead."
The disciple said, "That is too much, because you are alive and I will be in trouble.
Tomorrow you may appear before Buddha, and he will ask me, 'What were you saying?'" And in this way a whole sutra, Vimalkirti's Hridaya Sutra, has developed between the disciple and Vimalkirti.
He is so clear that you cannot catch hold of him, you cannot grasp him. He is so vast that whatever you say, you are immediately caught.

CHAPTER 10. MAN IS A BORN IN TAO ("When the Shoe Fits"- Osho)

(16) Osho



Needs can be fulfilled, but desires cannot be.
Desire is a need gone mad. Needs are simple, they come from nature; desires are very complex they don’t come from nature. 
They are created by the mind.
Needs are moment to moment, they are created out of life itself. Desires are not moment to moment, they are always for the future.
They are not created by life itself, they are projected by the mind.
Desires are projections, they are not really needs. This is the first thing to be understood, and the deeper you understand, the better.
What is desire? 
It is movement of the mind into the future.
Need belongs to this moment – if you are hungry it is a need, and has to be fulfilled. and it can be fulfilled. There’s no problem about it. If you are thirsty, you are thirsty here and now, you have to seek water. It should be fulfilled – so it is a life need.
But desires are not like that. You desire to be the president of a country. It is not a need, it is an ambition, it is an ego projection into the future. Or you desire heaven – that too is in the future; or you desire God – that too is in the future.
Remember,needs are always here and now – they are existential. 
And desires are never here and now – they are non-existential. They are just mental, in the mind. And they cannot be fulfilled because their very nature is to move into the future.
They are just like the horizon you see. It seems that just nearby somewhere the earth meets the sky. It is so apparent! You can walk there! But you could go on walking forever and ever, and the distance will remain the same; always somewhere ahead the earth will be meeting the sky. 
But you will never reach that place, that point where the earth meets the sky. They never meet.
This is just an appearance, what Hindus call MAYA: it appears, but it is not so. It appears if you are standing at a distance. The nearer you come the more you realise that it is not so. The horizon moves further ahead, and the distance between you and it always remains the same.
The distance between you and your desire always remains the same. How can you fulfill it? If you desire ten thousand rupees, you may get them some day. But by the time you get them, the desire will have gone ten thousand times ahead again. You have one thousand rupees; the desire will ask for ten thousand. Now you have ten thousand; the desire will ask for one hundred thousand.
The distance remains the same. You may have one hundred thousand – it makes no difference. Ten times again, the desire will remain the same.
Needs are simple. They can be fulfilled. You feel hungry and you eat; you feel thirsty and you drink;
you feel sleepy, you go to bed.
Desires are very cunning and
complex. You are frustrated, but not because of needs.
You are frustrated because of desires. And if desires take too much of your energy you will be unable to
fulfill your needs also, because who is there to fulfill them? You are moving into the future; you are thinking of the future; your mind is dreaming.
Who is there to fulfill ordinary needs of the day? You are not there. And you would like to remain hungry but reach the horizon. You would like to postpone needs so that the whole energy moves towards the desire.
But in the end, you find that the desire is not fulfilled, and because needs have been neglected, in the end you are just a ruin. And the time
that is lost cannot be regained; you cannot go back.
There is a story told of one old wise man, whose name was Mencius. He was a follower of Confucius and he died when he was very, very old.
Somebody asked him: If you were given life again, how will you start it? Said Mencius: I will pay more
attention to my needs and less attention to my desires.
And this realisation will come to you also. But it always comes very late and then life is no more in your hands. If you were given life again....
Needs are beautiful; desires are ugly. Needs are bodily; desires are psychological.
But look at your so-called saints and sages: they always condemn your needs and always help your desires to be projected.
They say: What are you doing? Just eating? Sleeping? Wasting your life? Try to reach heaven! Heaven is the ultimate desire.
Paradise is waiting for you, and you are wasting your life on ordinary things – just vegetating. Stand up and run, because there is not much time left! Reach!
Knock at the door of heaven! Reach God! But don’t stand there!
They always condemn your needs and they always help your desires.
That’s why the world has become so ugly – everybody is full of desires and nobody’s needs are fulfilled.
That which can be fulfilled is neglected and that which cannot be fulfilled is being fed.
This is the misery of man.

The Secret of Secrets ; Chapter 13 - A Listening Heart- Osho

The first thing: a man is born only when he becomes decisive. With decision is the birth of man.Those who live in indecisiveness are not really men yet. And millions live in indecisiveness; they cannot decide about anything. They always lean upon others; somebody else should decide for them. Hence people hang around authorities.
Authoritativeness continues in the world for the single reason that millions of people cannot decide for themselves. They have always to be given an order. Once the order is given, they follow it. But this is slavery, this is how they are preventing the birth of their own soul. Decision should arise in
your being, because with decisiveness integrity arises. Remember, make a few decisions. 
Decisions will make you individual.
What is indecisiveness? It means you are a crowd; many voices in you are contradicting each other,and you cannot decide whether to go this way or that. Even in small things people are indecisive:whether to go to see this movie or that – and they are indecisive. Indecisiveness has become
almost their very style of life. To purchase this or to purchase that? Just watch people when they go shopping. See their indecisiveness. Just sit in any shop and just watch people coming and going – customers – and you will be surprised: people don’t know how to decide. And those who don’t know how to decide will remain vague, cloudy, confused. With decision comes clarity. And if the decision is far-reaching, if the decision has something to do with your foundations, certainly, one is born.
Now there are many people who come to me, and they say, ’We cannot decide whether to take the jump into sannyas or not.’ They want me to tell them to take the jump. But then they miss the whole point. If I say to you, ’Take the jump and become a sannyasin,’ you have missed an opportunity, a great opportunity, of taking a decision. Again you have leaned on somebody else, and that is not the way a soul grows. And this is a profound decision, of immense significance, because it is going to change your whole life style, it is going to give you a new vision. You will be moving in a new
direction, you will not be the same again. Such far-reaching decisions one should be capable of taking on one’s own. One should risk. Only with risk, with courage, is one born.

CHAPTER 41. FROM INFORMATION TO TRANSFORMATION- The Osho Upanishad

(17) Osho





I am reminded of a beautiful incident in the life of Ramakrishna’s wife, Sharda Devi.
Ramakrishna died, but before dying he told Sharda, ”Remember, I have been here always and I will be here always, so don’t think of yourself as a widow. Only my body is going to die – but you are
married to me, not to my body.”
In India, when a husband dies – and particularly in Bengal it is more severe for the woman, for the wife – her head is shaved... because half of the beauty of a woman is in her hair. She cannot wear any colored clothes; only white is allowed. She cannot use any ornaments, particularly the glass
bangles that are used by married women. When the husband dies, she has to break her glass bangles.
Just by the way, I have to inform you why the glass bangles have been chosen as a symbol of marriage: because here in this life, everything is just like glass – breakable, easily breakable.
And when the husband dies, she has to break her bangles on the floor. They need to be made of glass, not of metal, not of gold.
But Ramakrishna prohibited her: ”In spite of the whole tradition, I prohibit you. Continue the way you have lived with me. I have loved your food, your sweets. Every day, prepare my food, my sweets; and sit just the way you used to sit before me while I was eating. One day I will be coming.”
Ramakrishna died.
Everybody tried to convince Sharda, ”Don’t be mad, don’t go against the tradition. Ramakrishna was always half mad, and it seems that before death he has lost his mind completely!”
But Sharda said, ”I am not married to the tradition, not married to the convention – I am married to this beautiful half-madman and I am going to follow him.” She did not cry. She continued using ornaments, glass bangles, colored clothes; she did not shave her hair.
People said, ”We used to think Ramakrishna was mad; this Sharda is even more mad. She is a widow, and she is behaving as if she is newly married.”
And she would prepare the food with the same enthusiasm, and would bring it to Ramakrishna’s room and sit in front of him with a small fan in her hands, as she used to sit – as for thousands of years in the East, wives have sat with a fan, so that no fly or anything can sit on the food.
And people said, ”You are mad. There is nobody there.”
And twice every day the ritual was repeated, and she lived many years.
Whenever she was asked she said, ”Whatever happens... I know he is going to come one day.” Such patience.
I reminded you of this incident because your fulfillment, your enlightenment, is waiting with infinite patience, for millions of years. One day you are bound to come.
Ramakrishna may come, may not come, but one day you will be sitting under a bodhi tree, enlightened – that is guaranteed. That is intrinsic to your nature. It all depends on you: you can be lazy and you can reach to your own bodhi tree in many, many lives’ time. You can be total, your
intensity can make you an arrow, and you can move with the speed of light.
And certainly enlightenment is nothing but your becoming light, your inner being becoming light.
Perhaps you are aware that the physicists say that if anything moves with the speed of light, it becomes light – because the speed is so great that the friction creates fire. The thing is burned, there is only light. The material disappears, only immaterial light remains. Enlightenment is the experience of an explosion of light within you. Perhaps your desire to be enlightened is moving with the speed of light, like an arrow, so that your
very desire, your very longing becomes a flame, an explosion of light. There is nobody who becomes enlightened, there is only enlightenment. There is only a tremendous sunrise within you.

RIGHT SLEEP
The thing which has been harmed the most in the development of human civilization is sleep. From the day man discovered artificial light, his sleep has become very troubled. And as more and more gadgets started falling into man’s hands, he started feeling that sleep is an unnecessary thing, too much time is wasted in it.
The time when we are asleep is a complete waste. So the less sleep we can do with the better. It does not occur to people that sleep has any kind of contribution to the deeper processes of life. They think that the time spent sleeping is time gone to waste, so the less they sleep the better; the more quickly they reduce the amount of sleep, the better.
We have not even noticed that the cause behind all the illnesses, all the disorders that have entered man’s life is lack of sleep. The person who cannot sleep rightly cannot live rightly.
Sleep is not a waste of time.
The eight hours of sleep are not being wasted; rather, because of those eight hours, you are able to stay awake for sixteen hours. Otherwise you would not be able to stay awake all that time.
During those eight hours life-energy is accumulated, your life gets revitalized, the centers of your brain and heart calm down and your life functions from your navel center. For those eight hours of sleep you have again become one with nature and with existence. That is why you become revitalized.
Sleep needs to come back into man’s life. Really, there is no alternative, no other step, for the psychological health of humanity than that sleep should be made compulsory by law for the next one or two hundred years.
It is very important for a meditator to see to it that he sleeps properly and enough. And one more thing needs to be understood – right sleep will be different for everybody. It will not be equal because the body has needs which are different for everyone...according to age and to many other elements.
Perhaps you may not be aware that the latest research says that there cannot be one fixed time for everyone to wake up. It is always said that to wake up at five o’clock in the morning is good for everyone. This is absolutely wrong and unscientific.
It is not good for everyone; it may be good for some people but it may be harmful for other people. Within twenty-four hours, for about three hours, the body temperature of each person goes down. And those three hours are the hours of deepest sleep. If the person is woken up during those three hours, his whole day will be spoiled and his whole energy will be disturbed.
Generally these three hours are between two to five in the morning. For most people these three hours are between two to five in the morning, but it is not the case with everyone.
For some people their body temperature is low until six o’clock, for some it is low until seven. For some their temperature starts becoming normal at four in the morning. So if someone wakes up within these hours of low temperature, all twenty-four hours of his day will be spoiled and there will be harmful effects. Only when a person’s temperature starts rising to a normal level is it time for him to wake up.
Normally it is alright for everybody to wake up with the rising sun, because as the sun rises everyone’s temperature starts rising. But this is not a rule, there are some exceptions.
For some people it may be necessary to sleep a little later than sunrise, because each individual’s body temperature rises at a different time, at a different pace. So each person should find out how many hours of sleep he needs and what is a healthy time for him to get up, and that is the rule for him...whatever the scriptures may say, whatever the gurus may say. There is no need to listen to them at all.
For right sleep, the deeper and the longer you are able to sleep, the better. But I am telling you to sleep, not to keep on lying on the bed! Lying down on your bed is not sleep!
To wake up when you feel it is healthy for you to wake up should be the rule for you. Usually it happens along with the sunrise but it is possible that this does not happen to you.
There is no need to be afraid or worried or to think that you are a sinner and to be afraid of going to hell. Many people who get up early in the morning go to hell and many people who get up late are living in heaven. None of this has any relation whatsoever to being spiritual or unspiritual. But right sleep certainly does have a relationship with it.
So each person should discover what is the best arrangement for him. For three months each person should experiment with his work, with his sleep and with his diet, and should find out what are the most healthy, most peaceful and most blissful rules for him.
And everyone should make his own rules. No two persons are alike, so no common rule is ever applicable to anybody. Whenever someone tries to apply a common rule, it has a bad effect.
Each person is an individual.
Each person is unique and incomparable. Only he is like himself, there is no other person like him anywhere on the earth. So no rule can be a rule for him until he finds out what the rules for his own life-processes are.
