關於 合必爽心律不整 ，我們在網路上蒐集到這些相關的討論、資訊與評價

常出現於洋食料理中艷黃鮮綠的櫛瓜，口感多汁又清爽，既能增添餐食繽紛色彩，又能補充營養與提升口感，是高人氣的瓜果類時蔬。其原產於墨西哥，名為Zucchini，是從南瓜變形栽種而來的瓜果，正式中文名其實叫做夏南瓜Summer Squash，而真正的櫛瓜則是另一種小型冬瓜的變種，在亞洲各地區，也稱其為西葫蘆、美洲葫蘆、矮南瓜及嫩南瓜等別名

約莫在大航海時代自美洲將其傳入義大利，幾經改良後，逐漸成為地中海料理中不可或缺的美味食材。常見的櫛瓜顏色有綠有黃，也有帶著淺色條紋的樣式，形似小黃瓜的長條狀為市場主流，也有呈南瓜型的圓弧狀

以往因多採進口為主，所以要價不斐；如今本地也有種植改良品種，從播種到採收僅需45天左右，產季集中在9月中旬至隔年4月上旬，主要的產地落在臺南地區。而櫛瓜在現代飲食文化中備受矚目，主要是因當中不含澱粉，屬低GI值食材，並富含維生素與高纖等營養優勢，以下「5個櫛瓜的好處」，我們接著來認識吧！

❶活絡神經肌能佳
其含高量鉀元素，有助預防高血壓並維持心血管健康，並可促進多餘的鈉排出，亦可維持神經和肌肉之正常運作

❷低卡高纖少負擔
每100克綠櫛瓜之熱量大約只有11大卡，總碳水化合物僅1.8克，並具有豐富的膳食纖維，特別適合做為體態管控者之蔬食選擇

❸明目抗氧增免疫
內含豐富的β-胡蘿蔔素，可預防及改善視網膜黃斑部病變，並具良好的抗氧化能力;再經體內轉化為維生素A後，亦有助強化黏膜與提升免疫能力

❹養心造血護健康
當中的葉酸能夠預防貧血情況，有利協助造血，也是孕婦們必備的重要營養素。並可避免體內同半胱胺酸之堆積，以漸少對於血管之傷害，間接達到保護心血管的助益

❺機能平衡鈣強壯
每100g的櫛瓜含20g的鈣質，是有助補充鈣質的蔬食優選，鈣質能助肌肉正常運作與血管的擴張及收縮，並有利荷爾蒙及酵素的分泌與平衡，更可使神經傳導物質的傳導作用維持穩定

#櫛瓜挑選法
▶️櫛瓜以瓜體結實者為宜，若瓜體太軟即表示已不新鮮
▶️外表以無損傷具光澤，且蒂頭乾燥無枯黑，直徑均勻之品質為佳
▶️體型越大的櫛瓜纖維就越粗，口感相對差。長型櫛瓜約在15~20公分，而重量落在250公克上下的選擇為優，既鮮嫩又爽口

#櫛瓜的種類
市售有深綠、淺綠、黃色及條紋狀的櫛瓜品種，其中深綠色的台南1號及亮黃色的台南4號，因其生命力旺盛且穩定，便成為市場上廣泛流通的品種

#櫛瓜停看聽
⚠️因含鉀量高，腎臟機能耗弱者，需適量食用，以避免讓腎臟因無法排出多餘的鉀離子，而導致水腫、心律不整等不適情形發生

⚠️需避免以高溫的煎、炒、烤、炸等方式烹調，因極易釋放出丙烯醯胺之致癌物質，且時間越長，產生的有害物質就越多。建議可採先汆燙或蒸煮，再進行短暫的燴炒或涼拌為宜

●中央流行疫情指揮中心今(19)日表示，國內疫情已較為穩定，為兼顧國內妥善安排人力及實務上業務需求，自今(2021)年7月20日起恢復移工調派至同一雇主之其他工作場所。至於工作延伸(即雇主指派移工至客戶契約履行地工作)，考量移工流動性較高及染疫風險，仍暫緩解封，未來將視疫情再行檢討。
●指揮中心說明，近期評估國內整體疫情及產業發展需要，將自7月20日起恢復調派移工變更工作場所，雇主符合下列情形，得調派移工變更工作場所單次達60日以上，其餘單次未達60日以上者仍不得調派：
一、安排移工核酸檢驗（下稱PCR）且PCR結果須為陰性：如為須向勞動部申請調派許可者(如營造業)，須於申請日(含)前3日內安排移工檢驗PCR，且PCR結果須為陰性，始得向勞動部提出申請。另其他工作類別無須經勞動部許可得逕調派者，須於調派日(含)前3日內安排移工檢驗PCR，且PCR結果須為陰性，始得調派移工，又調派前應先將PCR檢驗結果送當地勞工主管機關備查。
二、雇主應依指引辦理防疫措施：倘若移工檢測PCR確診時，雇主應善盡雇主責任，並依勞動部「因應嚴重特殊傳染性肺炎雇主聘僱移工指引：移工工作、生活及外出管理注意事項」，配合衛生單位安排就醫或送集中檢疫所隔離治療，並依確診個案處置及解除隔離治療條件續處。倘若移工檢測PCR陰性，雇主調派移工仍應依指引，每日進行移工健康監測及記錄移工出入足跡。
指揮中心進一步表示，雇主調派移工變更工作場所單次達60日以上者，如未於上開規定期限內安排移工檢驗PCR，未依規定向勞動部申請或未送當地勞工主管機關備查，將依「就業服務法」第57條第4款及第68條第1項規定，處新臺幣3萬至15萬元罰鍰；若違反2次以上，將廢止雇主聘僱許可及管制聘僱移工名額。另雇主如委託仲介公司辦理移工生活照顧，因仲介公司未善盡受任事務，違反上開防疫措施，將依仲介公司違反「就業服務法」規定，處新臺幣6萬元以上至30萬元以下罰鍰。

●中央流行疫情指揮中心今(19)日表示，「COVID-19疫苗施打意願登記與預約系統」第三輪的意願登記已於今日中午12時截止，全國約有887萬人登記，其中約495萬人有意願接種AZ疫苗。該系統平臺自7月20日上午10時起，將針對第六、八、九、十類及1973年12月31日(含)以前出生民眾，約170萬人會陸續收到簡訊，預約接種期程至7月22日中午12時截止；本輪可接種疫苗為AZ疫苗，施打期間為7月23日至7月29日，籲請民眾準時前往接種。未來將視疫苗到貨量，每周二發送簡訊，提醒民眾預約接種。如接獲簡訊，但沒有完成預約者，將自動加入下一次簡訊通知名單。
○指揮中心進一步說明，該系統平臺自今日中午12時以後將先暫停意願登記，後續視疫苗新到貨量後重開意願登記。此外，重新開啟後，增勾或改勾AZ疫苗者，將於第三輪意願登記接種AZ疫苗之495萬人優先處理後，再接續處理。
○指揮中心提醒，請民眾須先於「COVID-19疫苗施打意願登記與預約系統」完成意願登記，才能在接到簡訊通知後進行預約。系統平臺會按疫苗分配情形、參照民眾登記之意願，通知符合預約資格的民眾，收到簡訊通知者才可進行下一步預約接種。尚未收到簡訊的民眾，會於後續符合預約資格後，收到簡訊通知，所有資料皆會完整保存，請民眾放心。
○指揮中心強調，「COVID-19疫苗施打意願登記與預約系統」是為了建立讓大量疫苗接種能依序且穩定有效推行的機制，中央與地方腳步一致，加強推動疫苗接種，提升群體保護力，守護國人健康。

[110/07/19] 衛生福利部 夏天補水分保護心血管
https://www.mohw.gov.tw/cp-16-62277-1.html

台灣已進入夏季炎熱天氣型態，防疫期間，多數民眾在家防疫，但仍有部分民眾需在外辛勞工作，除了要預防中暑外，有高血壓或心血管疾病的民眾，如果出現胸悶、胸痛、心悸、呼吸困難、噁心、冒冷汗、頭暈或暈厥等心臟病徵時，不要避諱就醫，另更年期女性可能出現氣喘、背痛等非典型症狀，很有可能是心臟病急性發作，務必迅速離開高溫的環境、設法降低自身體溫（如鬆脫衣物、用水擦拭身體或搧風等）、提供加少許鹽的冷開水或稀釋的電解質飲料，做好個人防護並以最快的速度就醫。

夏日須留「心」:保持涼爽、補充水分

心臟病是國人第二號殺手，平均每26分鐘就有1人死於心臟病，缺乏規律運動、不健康飲食所引起的三高（高血壓、高血糖及高血脂）、過重或肥胖、吸菸及過量飲酒等問題，都是心血管疾病的主要危險因子。雖然天氣冷對於心臟血管傷害較為明顯，但是高溫對人體的危害也不容小覷。台灣老人急重症醫學會葉宏一理事長指出，因氣溫升高，體表血管擴張，心臟負荷增加，再加上夏天流汗，身體水分蒸發讓血液變得濃稠，容易出現冠狀動脈堵塞，嚴重時恐會導致心肌梗塞，而脫水現象也會讓心跳加速，容易引發心律不整或心臟衰竭。英國心臟基金會呼籲長者、年幼小孩及心血管疾病等慢性病人應特別注意熱對身體造成的傷害，在中午11點至下午3點應避免到戶外活動，外出時盡量穿著輕便、通風、淺色衣物，穿戴帽子及太陽眼鏡並隨身攜帶水，疫情爆發期間保持涼爽和補充水分尤為重要[1]，惟心血管疾病合併腎臟病病友，補充水分須與醫師討論評估。另進出冷氣房時，因冷熱溫差較大，亦會增加心臟血管負擔，也不能輕忽。

夏季護心照顧自己也保護家人

炎炎夏日防疫期間該如何護心國民健康署吳昭軍署長強調預防心血管疾病的王道，就是落實護心行動於日常生活中，保持涼爽、健康飲食，適量多次飲水、居家也要規律運動、向菸說不、控制三高:定期量血壓及血糖，遵照醫師處方服藥並定期回診追蹤(可善用健保署因應疫情指定院所開設之「視訊診療門診」或就近於社區診所就醫)，切勿自行依症狀調整藥量或停藥。自己對健康多一分留「心」，就是預防疾病、落實防疫措施最重要關鍵！

[110/07/18] 衛生福利部 為使疫苗資源有效運用，Moderna疫苗第二劑接種對象擴及至第二類及三類，請各縣市及合約醫療院所加強推動符合資格民眾接種
https://www.mohw.gov.tw/cp-16-62276-1.html

中央流行疫情指揮中心(18)日表示，Moderna疫苗自解凍後，可使用期間為30天(配送各縣市後以28天計算)，自7月1、5、8及9日陸續配送至各地方政府衛生局或合約醫療院所的Moderna疫苗目前尚餘21萬570劑，將在7月29日至8月6日間到期，請各地方政府衛生局及合約醫療院所加強推動，針對原已符合第二劑接種間隔為至少28天的第一類、機組人員及孕婦等對象提供接種。

指揮中心指出，為使疫苗資源有效運用，經統計自6月9日至7月9日為止，已接種第一劑Moderna疫苗之第一類至第三類對象及孕婦，共計18萬9,788人可於8月6日之前(接種間隔至少28天)接種第二劑Moderna疫苗，故目前各地方政府及合約醫療院所剩餘量，尚足以提供該等對象第二劑接種使用。為使高風險第一線防疫人員及相關工作人員能夠儘速獲得保護力，讓疫苗資源有效運用，自即日起除第一類、機組人員及孕婦等對象以外，第二及第三類對象於接種第一劑Moderna疫苗後滿28天，亦可接種第二劑。

另指揮中心提醒，5月11日至5月23日已接種第一劑AstraZeneca疫苗的民眾，將陸續自下週起間隔滿10週，可透過COVID-19疫苗預約系統意願登記接種第二劑，或至COVID-19疫苗合約醫療院所預約。請地方政府衛生局偕同合約醫療院所提供前述對象完成二劑疫苗接種，以提升第二劑疫苗覆蓋率。指揮中心亦將持續視疫情狀況及疫苗供貨情形，滾動調整接種政策。

指揮中心提醒，民眾前往接種COVID-19第二劑疫苗前，請備妥「COVID-19疫苗接種紀錄卡」及「健保卡」。若「COVID-19疫苗接種紀錄卡」已遺失，民眾可返回第一劑接種的醫療院所申請補發，再繼續完成第二劑接種。接種單位於接種前需核對民眾身分資料、主動詢問民眾疫苗接種史，檢視疫苗接種紀錄卡紀錄及健保卡註記貼紙資料，如均無相關接種證明或資訊者，除可使用網路連線全國性預防接種資訊管理系統(NIIS)查詢子系統查詢疫苗接種史，合約醫療院所亦可透過雲端藥歷系統等連結查詢，以確認疫苗接種間隔及廠牌是否符合規範。

「地獄空」攝影集即將在八月中元節前出版，由知名設計師與攝影家黃子欽設計，內附在下二位高徒精美繪製符咒、心經版畫書籤、愣嚴咒牌、尊勝咒語...等，感恩十方大德助印，希望疫情退散，平安喜樂，後記如下：

野放台灣五十餘年，貪狼獨坐，三方四正殺破狼格局，少年多舛，白手起家，隨展覽雲遊四海，如閒雲野鶴常持各類底片機流連廢墟、山川、宮廟忘返，遂設幻影堂自詡堂主，一日三省「凡所有相皆是虛妄」，常宅於暗房沖片放大通宵、鍾情黑白世界之單純，彩色照片俗世繽紛花俏做作甜美甚至比現實更現實故少拍也。知天命之年有餘，了悟人生一瞬、眨眼即逝，雖非仙人，亦無道骨，初聞離垢地生清淨心，但離華嚴「不動地」尚遠，待修持也。
2017年盛暑拍畢《巨神連線》，心律不整差點心肌梗塞向閻羅王報到，意識死神隨伺在側，人生苦短，如何了生脫死、盡斷煩惱、無所罣礙、遠離顛倒……總不得解，蒙釋迦摩尼佛開示飆淚三晝夜，聞佛法數載始知自我渺如塵埃，甚感慚愧。閒暇乃參訪名寺古剎，禮敬焚香佛陀菩薩羅漢諸神天仙王爺媽娘，台灣宮廟千奇百怪、宗派錯綜複雜（佛教、道教、一貫道、天主教、基督教、齋教、回教＆大同教、儒教鑾堂、天帝教＆天德教、慈惠堂＆勝安宮、軒轅教、道院、理教、萬國道德會、會靈山……）、神棍橫行（依人不依法、偶像崇拜、斂財、邪淫），因歷史變遷、社會動盪、政治鬥爭、意識形態等因素導致佛道混雜，但地獄造景稀少，後專注拍攝各殿閻王、判官、陰司、獄卒、七爺、八爺乃至一切罪人，各寺造景巧妙、耐人尋味，意境乖張溢於言表，造型扭曲非常人所能塑也，然匠心獨運、自成一格，專研西方藝術數十載方知真誠樸拙最美，絲毫不輸喬托（Giotto di Bondone，1267～1337）乃至米開朗基羅（Michelangelo Di lodovico Buonarroti Simoni 1475 ~ 1564）矣。

創立於1986年的石門金剛宮風景優美可眺望北濱，雖主祀四面佛，儒釋道眾神尊也不含糊，可過七星橋解厄、繞行五百黝黑羅漢敲鑼印心、跪拜亞洲最大臥佛涅槃像，安太歲自不在話下，甲子太歲爺雙眼長出手掌印象甚深，1994年經閻羅王指示廟公建造一條肚內設極樂世界及陰曹地府之神龍，行走暗黑通道觸動感應機關，只見面容猙獰受刑者呼天搶地喊冤、身邊盡是血肉糢糊殘肢敗屍腦漿塗地，十殿閻羅各司其職、威儀攝人。新北市林口區青嶺湖北文紫祥宮包公廟則以壁面彩塑地獄浮雕獨步全台，粉嫩色彩搭配卡漫風格，尤為造型簡直恐怖到可愛透頂，該廟主祀森羅殿閻羅天子包拯（包青天），陽世冤屈者可至此參拜祭解，求破懸案者眾，逢中元普渡皆以紙紮船渡亡魂至彼岸，全台唯一閻羅天子巨像籌備中，四周環繞墓地，適合修不淨觀也。台灣首尊彰化八卦山大佛旁南天宮（1971）地府則是首座電動地府，規模精小但驚嚇度破表，略顯破敗但五光十色仍蠻凶悍，出自已故台南大道長金登富之作，而電動神明起始可追溯至1960年代北港朝天宮。倒是嘉義水上鄉白人牙膏觀光工廠「戴相府」、「將軍府」設置十殿地府出乎意料之外，乾淨亮麗、ㄧ殿ㄧ間、簡單樸實。由高雄蓮潭龍虎塔龍口入內可見全臺唯一交趾陶地獄牆面，尊尊栩栩如生，續入龍身乃進聞聲救苦白衣觀音大士三十三化身浮雕隧道，造型設色甚為古錐。高雄大岡山超峰寺入口處「西方三聖蓮池海會」（阿彌陀佛、觀世音菩薩、大勢至菩薩巨像）旁設靜態十殿閻羅（1970年代初），雖略為陳舊然韻味猶存，續往上行可抵「證菩提道－釋迦如來應化事迹」雕塑園區，一攬世尊畢生精華。如來年邁時，琉璃國王為報長期被釋迦族輕蔑之傲慢心，世尊雖三次單獨伽跌坐 阻擋大軍進攻之路，但因緣果報無法逆轉，昔日婢女所生王子瞋恨無以復加，還是滅了祖國。自持神通第一目犍連不忍無辜百姓慘遭屠殺，遂以缽盛救度五百族人，最終卻化為血水，佛言神通廣大仍不敵千百劫業力，因緣果報屢試不爽。其母死後墜入餓鬼道飢餓難耐，目犍連遂展神通救渡，但所食尚未入口皆化為赤火，佛陀囑咐農曆七月十五日僧眾解安居自恣日，於盆中設甘露美食供養十方僧眾，因此超度亡母。後世「盂蘭盆法會」乃至「水懺法會」、「瑜珈焰口法會 」皆為消業障、斷塵垢之超渡儀軌，既渡亡魂也自懺悔。

台南麻豆代天府規模宏大、造型豔麗，不但可遊十八層地獄尚可逛天堂（1979年興建，1983年開放)，燈光絢爛、聲響駭人，獨自漫步宛如觀落陰、地獄走一回。先過「心頭山」、入「清心池」、進「陰陽界」、抵「交簿廳」、達「鬼門關」、遊「補經所」、探「枉死城」、行「奈何橋」，至ㄧ殿泰廣王照「孽鏡台」現造惡原形，睹抱柱、火床等小地獄。二殿楚江王開「陰查簿 」判案定奪，觀糞尿泥、餓鬼、舞池、寒冰、膿血、鞭韃、舌犁、劍葉、戟腹拋接、砧截……等小地獄。三殿宋帝王刑罰為倒吊、銅鐵刮臉、挖眼、搗樁、倒烤、吸血、穿肋、抽筋、蛆蛀等小地獄……兼遊「四生（胎、卵、濕、化）回魂府」。四殿五官王掌管腰斬、拔舌、沸湯、刺嘴、剝皮、箭樹、車崩、射眼……等十六小地獄。隨五殿森羅王豋「望鄉臺」回眸親人最終眼後觀擊膝、誅心、刀山、飛刀火石……小地獄。六殿卞城王別稱「大叫喚大地獄」，轄火牛、虎啖、噬腎、鉗嘴含鍼、釘喉、磨摧、砍頭……等小地獄。七殿泰山王為「熱惱大地獄」，窺烙手指、抽腸、頂石蹲身、油釜滾烹、割舌穿腮……等十六小地獄。八殿都市王掌管「大熱惱大地獄」兼火狗、鐵汁、鐵蛇、鋸劈斷肢、釘板、灸脊、鐵丸、磅秤……等小地獄。九殿平等王直轄十八層「阿鼻大地獄」，直透地心、內中陰森、不見五指、滿溢地漿，皆為極犯，另轄紫赤毒蛇鑽孔、夾頂、鐵鴉、針雨、蜂蠍……等小地獄。至十殿輪轉王上「觀生臺」、「轉劫所八司」（查驗司 、稽善司 、考過司 、恩怨司 、壽命司 、支配司、掌劫司 、授生司）後至「孟婆亭」飲「醧忘湯」忘盡前塵往事，依前世功德過金、銀、玉、石、木、竹六種橋樑至「轉輪臺（紫河車）」入六道輪迴轉生投胎。據《十八泥犁經》記載，人過世後七七四十九天為「中陰生」，經閻羅王審判善惡業力判定去留或懲罰百千萬劫，犯五逆重罪則墮入「無間地獄（阿鼻地獄）」永劫不復。地藏王乃幽冥教主，統轄十殿閻羅，逢三曹普渡便在各殿設「講道所」超度尚存善根之鬼魂。

人類居於五趣（阿修羅、人、傍生、餓鬼、地獄）雜居地五濁惡世之堪忍世界，犯十惡業（殺生、偷盜、邪淫、妄語、兩舌、惡口、綺語、貪慾、嗔恚、愚痴）者必墮三趣惡道。如何出「三界」（欲界、色界、無色界）二十八天？凡人無此意識，別說能破「十二因緣」（無明、行、識、名色、六入、觸、受、愛、取、有、生、老死）還滅門，更別想斷除「四聖諦」（苦、集、滅、道）集地八十一品見惑與八十八使思惑（五利使-身見、邊見、邪見、見取見、戒禁取見、五鈍使-貪、瞋、癡、慢、疑），了悟「五蘊」（色、受、想、行、識）本空、「十二入」（眼、耳、鼻、舌、意、色、聲、香、味、觸、法）空、「十八界」空，破俱生我執與分別我執、法執甚至空執，生十一處「善心所」（信、精進、慚、愧、無貪、無瞋、無痴、輕安、不放逸、行捨、不害），降二十六處「惡心所」（貪、瞋、癡、慢、疑、惡見、忿、恨、覆、惱、嫉、慳、誑、諂、害、憍、無慚、無愧、掉舉、惛沉、不信、懈怠、放逸、失念、散亂、不正知），須知善根斷盡則陷永劫輪迴、無垠轉世之苦。

地獄可能空滅嗎？若地獄空乏人間多鬼怪，地獄淨空世間何嘗非淨土？若能證空性何處現地獄？

地獄曠古來便廣泛流傳各部族間，老死生滅為自然運行之基礎、宇宙意識之核心，然今文明昌盛如咱城邦並非慾望消弭之所，惡性所及實無可根除，礙於憲法國家法律社會軍隊企業公司學校家庭團體之層層束縛不亞於十八層，乃遁於壓抑、束己情懷，暗埋心底、日久貪嗔痴慢疑怨噌會疊穢。而六塵未熄，心多妄念，妖魔鬼怪魑魅魍魎孤魂閃靈出沒於荒郊乃至人間，會靈於曠野密林以增性靈乃出世高人修煉之舉，我等凡人擅闖宛如迪士尼般之人造地獄，三魂七魄尚不足以出竅，驚邪恐怖淒厲猙獰倒滿足了自以為是的慚愧，豈不謬哉？

Postscript

I have been living recklessly in Taiwan for more than fifty years. According to Zi Wei Dou Shu (Purple Star Astrology), Tan Lang is the sole star in my house of Self. This star, which represents xxx, forms an equilateral triangle with that star Qi Sha and Po Jun on the square chart and constitutes a Sha Po Lang pattern. The pattern indicates a kind of turbulence and change, a life of wandering with ups and downs and it tells a lot about my life. After my ill-fated youth, I started from scratch and traveled around the world with exhibitions that I participated. Like a flaneur, I wandered around ruins, nature, and temples with every type of film camera obliviously. Thus, I founded the Hall of Illusion and claimed to be the master of the hall. Several times a day, I pondered a quote from the Diamond Sutra, “Everything with form is unreal.” In addition, I usually stayed in the darkroom developing film and enlarging those negatives overnight. However, I treasured the simplicity of the black and white world. The earthly, gaudy, garish, phony and pleasing qualities within colored photos make the images even more realistic than the real world. It is not my cup of tea, so I seldom took colored photos. In Confucian thought, the age of fifty marks the stage knowing the mandate of Heaven. I am now at my fifties and realize how ephemeral human life is. However, I am not an immortal, nor having sagelike characteristics. I just learned that the stage of stainless (the second bhūmi) and develop a pure mind that is free from doubt and defilement. However, I’m still far from the immovable state and need to practice.

In the summer of 2017, after filming the work Incarnation, I experienced a severe heart rhythm problem which almost triggered myocardial infarction and could have killed me. Consequently, I realized that death was waiting for me and the life is too short to figure out how I can liberate myself from the cycle of Birth and Death. I couldn’t comprehend how to be free from all afflictions and worries and how to avoid delusive ideas. I wept for three days and nights after being enlightened by Shakyamuni Buddha. Up to the moment, I felt ashamed that I failed to realize that the self is as insignificant as dust after these years learning and practicing Buddhism. Since then, I have visited famous temples and monasteries in my spare time, worshiping Buddha, Bodhisattvas, arhats, and all the deities and immortals. Taiwan’s temples are myriad with a enormous number of sects, including Buddhism, Taoism, Yiguandao, Catholicism, Christianity, Chinese religions of fasting, Islam& Baháʼí Faith, Confucianism, Tiandiism& Tian-De Teachings, Xiwangmu cult, Yellow Emperor Sect, Precosmic Salvationism, Liism, World Wide Ethical Society, séance cult, etc. Some people even claim that they can mediate communication between the deities or spirits of the dead with human beings, having their believer rely on themselves instead of the orthodox dharma or dogma and pay excessive respect and admiration for the mediums or objects, accumulating wealth through such an unfair means or even harassing their believer sexually. Due to Taiwan’s historical changes, social turbulence, political struggles, and ideological issues, Buddhism and Taoism are somehow mixed. However, there are few emphases on the concept of the hell. As I took photographs of Yama of each court, judges, wardens of the underworld, jailers, General Fan and Hsieh (the ghost escorts) and all sinners, I found few temples cleverly created hellish scenes that are intriguing, exaggerating, and extraordinary. However, the creations are unparalleled unique. I have been studying Western arts for decades and then I came to realize that simplicity makes the most beautiful works of art. These hellish scenes can even compete with works of Giotto di Bondone (1267-1337) and Michelangelo Di lodovico Buonarroti Simoni (1475-1564).

Jingang Temple Shimen District, founded in 1986, overlooks the beautiful North shore. Although the temple is mainly dedicated to Phra Phrom (the Thai representation of Mahabrahma), spirits of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism can also be founded in the temple. The worshipper can go cross the Seven Star bridge to relieve bad luck, walk along the five hundred arhat statues and knock on the gong to affirm one’s Buddha nature. Furthermore, the worshipper can also prostrate themself before Asia’s largest statue of Buddha in Nirvana (the Reclining Buddha statue) and pacify the Taoist Tai Sui deity of the year. I was impressed by the Jia-Zi Tai Sui General that a pair of palms grow out of his eyes. In 1994, the biō-kong (the person taking charge of the temporal affairs of a temple) received a divine inspiration from Yama (the King of Hell) that he had to build a sacred hall in the shape of a divine dragon, with the interior designed according to the World of Ultimate Bliss and the Underworld. When the visitor walks in the dark hallway, they will see the tortured people (dioramas, of course) scrunching their faces and crying bitterly and loudly in excessive grief as the visitor triggers the mechanism. One will even find them in the midst of flesh, body liquid and blood, mutilated limbs, and rotten corpses. While each of the ten Yamas are focusing on their own duties, showing their sacred dignity that collect visitors’ attention. The Baogong Temple in Linkou District, New Taipei City exclusively features colorful depiction of hellish scenes in relief in Taiwan. With its pastel shades and cartoon-like style, the relief is both grotesque and adorable at the same time. This temple is dedicated to Bao Zhen (also known as Justice Bao) representing the incarnation of Yama. Living people who have been treated unjustly can come worshipping Bao Gong and receive exorcism. Therefore, many people come here for seeking to solve unsolved cases. In Zhongyuan Festival (the ghost festival), the temple will burn the Zhizha (paper craft) boat to ferry the ghosts to the other shore, which is the shore of enlightenment. The only giant statue of Yama in Taiwan is still in the making. The temple is surrounded by a cemetery, suitable for meditating on the loathsomeness and impurity. Nantian Temple (1971), located next to the Eight Trigram Mountains Buddha in Changhua, features the first animatronic underworld. Despite the small size, the animatronic underworld is intensely shocking. Though it’s slightly worn, the colorful dioramas are still brutally ferocious. The creator was the late venerable Dao Zhang (Taoist priest) Jing Deng-fu while the origin of animatronic deities can be traced back to the 1960s Beigang Chaotian Temple. On the contrary, the Whiteman Toothpaste Tourism Factory in Shuishang Township, Chiayi, features ten Yamas with individual booth. The place is unexpectedly clean and polished yet keeps a simple and modest tone. Then, the Dragon Pagoda of the Dragon and Tiger Pagodas at Lotus Lake in Zuoying, Kaohsiung, holds the only relief of hellish scenes made of Kochin ceramic. All the figures are vivid and life-like. If one goes further into the pagoda, they will see a relief tunnel of the thirty-three incarnations of the white-robed form of Guanyin (Avalokiteśvara) on a white lotus, with a lovely and interesting design. Another Hall of Yama is built in the 1970s next to the entrance of Dagangshan Chaofeng Temple, located in the Alian District of Kaohsiung. Visitors will also see three statues of the Three Holy Ones of the Western Pureland (Amitābha, Avalokiteśvara, Mahāsthāmaprāpta) which assemble at a lotus pond. Although the hellish scene looks somewhat antiquated, you may still find its previous charm. If one goes further, they will reach the sculptural garden of “Attaining the Bodhi Way: the Incarnation of Sakyamuni Buddha,” where the visitor can see the essence of Bhagavato’s (meaning the Blessed one, one of the common epithets for Buddha) life. When Tathāgata (another epithet for Buddha) was old, the king of Kosala wanted to avenge the arrogance of the tribe of Shakyas who had long despised him, regarding him as a son of a maiden. Although Buddha has sat in lotus position alone three times to stop the army from attacking his tribe. However, one can never reverse the cause and following karma. The prince born of a maiden was so furious that he eventually destroyed his homeland. Maudgalyāyana (one of the Buddha’s closest disciples), who is said to have had supernatural abilities that surpassed the other disciples, could not bear to see the slaughter of innocent people. Thus, he saved five hundred people of his tribe with a pātra (an eating utensil of Buddhist monks). Unfortunately, everything he did was in vain, those who were saved eventually turned into a puddle of blood. The Buddha said that the supernatural abilities cannot surpass the power of karma. The cause and effect work all the time. When Maudgalyāyana’s mother fell into the path of hungry ghost, he used his supernatural abilities to save his mother from hunger. However, all the food turned into fire before being fed to his mother. Later, the Buddha commanded the monks to put nectar and dishes in a basin on the 15th day of the seventh month in the lunar calendar for the monks from all directions to free his mother from reincarnation. In later times, the Ullambana Dharma Service, the Compassionate Samadhi Water Repentance, and the Yoga Collection for Feeding the Searing Mouths Dharma Service are rituals to eliminate karmic hindrance and to cease to worldly delusions. Through such practices, one can free the dead as well as confess their repentance.

Madou Daitian Temple is a magnificent and colorful temple in Tainan. Not only can the worshippers visit the eighteen levels of Hell but also the Heaven (it was built in 1979 and inaugurated in 1983) here. The lighting and sound effects are stunning and frightening. When walking alone in the space, one may feel like taking a Guan Luo Yin trip (a Taoist necromancy which leads people’s spirits to hell and communicate with the dead ones) to visit the underworld prison. Before arriving the first court of the underworld, the visitor will walk through the Mountain of Heart Summit, the Pure Heart Pond, the Frontier between the Living and the Dead Realms, the Soul Registry Hall, the Portico of Demons, the Center for Complementary Teaching of Canonical Books, the Citadel of Premature Death, and the Bridge of Vanity. When one arrives at the first court, they will see King Chin-guang, who is in charge of the court, using the Mirror of Retribution to show the earthly form of evil creatures and also witness the sub-hell of Pillar-Holding and Fire Bed, etc. At the second court, King Chu-jiang collates the register of sins the souls of the dead have committed to impose the punishments. Here, you will see the sub-hell of Excrement and Urine, Hungry Ghost, Burning Dance Floor, Ice, Pus and Blood, Whipping, Tongue-Raking, Sword Blade, Stomach-Piercing, Chopping, etc. Next, the dead at the third court, ruled by King Song-di, will receive the punishments including inversion tortures, face-skinning with steel and copper knife, eye-wrenching, pounding, blood-sucking, rib-piercing, roasting, tendon-taking, being eaten by maggots. The visitor can pay a visit to the Palace of Soul-Resuscitation for the Four Forms of Creatures (birth from an egg, birth from a womb, birth from moisture, and birth by transformation). King Wu-guan is in charge of the fourth court. There are sixteen sub-hells at the fourth court including Waist Chop, Tongue Removal, Boiling Pond, Mouth-stabbing, Skin-peeling, Sword Tree, Burning Wheels and Cart, Eye-shooting, etc. Next, at the fifth court, sinful souls are allowed to ascend the Tower of Hometown-Viewing to take a final look of their family. The visitor will witness sub-hells of Knee-striking, Heart-slicing, Blade Mountain, Flying Swords and Burning Stones, etc. The King of Bian City takes charge of the sixth court, which is also known as the “Great Hell of Screaming,” with sub-hells including Fire Cattle, Tiger-Biting, Kidney-Eating, Mouth-Poking, Throat-Nailing, Iron Mill, Decapitation, etc. The King of Tai-shan is in charge of the seventh court, the “Great Hell of Heat and Fire.” The sixteen sub-hells at this court include Finger-Searing, Bowel-Hauling, Stone-Bearing, Boiling Oil, Tongue-Removal and Cheek-Piercing, etc. Next, the King Du-shi is in charge of the eighth court, the “Great Hell of Intense Fire and Heat,” and the sub-hells including Fire Dogs, Molten Iron, Iron Snakes, Dismemberment, Steel Spikes, Burning-Marrow, Iron Ball, Scale, etc. The ninth court is ruled by the King Ping-deng. It is known as the biggest court, Avici Hell (the Hell of Incessant Suffering), which if the lowest level of the hell realm and the interior is gloomily and terrifyingly dark. Those who committed the most serious evil deed will be sent to the Avici Hell. Sub-hells such as Poisonous Snake, Brain-Removal, Crow-Gnawing, Raining Needles, Wasps and Scorpions are included at this court. After arriving the tenth court, ruled by the Great King of the Reincarnation Palace, one can visit the “Observatory of Life on earth” and the “eight bureaus of the Reincarnation Palace” (including the Bureau of Judicial Control, the Bureau of Good-Actions, the Bureau of Bad-Actions, the Bureau of Debts, Gratitude, and Vengeance, the Bureau of Longevity and Destiny, the Bureau of Familial Ties, the Bureau of the Reincarnated, and the Bureau of Birth). The sinful one will be sent to the Pavilion of Mengpo and made to drink the Soup of Forgetfulness to forget all past affairs. According to the sinful one’s merits of previous life, they will go across one of the six bridges (gold, silver, jade, stone, wood, bamboo) to the “Reincarnation-Wheel (Wheel on the Crimson River).” Finally, one is able to reborn in the six realms. According to the Aṣṭadaśa nāraka sutra ( the Eighteen Hells Sutra), after one passes away, they will enter an intermediate and transitional state between death and rebirth, known as antarābhava in Sanskrit, for forty-nine days. The being will be evaluated by Yama, who will decide if one should get reborn or get punished at the hell. Those who committed the Five Grave Offenses (killing one’s father, killing one’s mother, killing an Arhat, shedding the blood of a Buddha, and creating a schism within the community of Buddhist monks and nun who practice for attaining enlightenment.) will be sent to the Avici Hell and stay there eternally. Kṣitigarbha is the Lord of the Nether World, ruling the ten court of Hell. The lord will set up the “Hall of Teaching” at each court to salvage those sinful ones who still obtain few merits at the offering rituals.

Human beings live the Sahā world (sahāloka in Sanskrit, meaning “endurance of suffering,” a concept of mundane world in Mahāyāna Buddhism) where they share with other reincarnations (including beings of the hells, of the preta, and of malevolent nature spirits) with five turbidities (the Kalpa turbidity, the view turbidity, the affliction turbidity, the living beings turbidity, and the life turbidity). Those who commit the ten evil deeds (killing, stealing, adultery, lying, using immoral language, slandering, equivocating, coveting, anger, and false views) must fall into the three evil paths (animals, preta, and hell). However, how can one escape from the three realms/ twenty-eight heavens (including the six heavens of the desire realm, the eighteen heavens of the form realm, and the four heavens of the formless realm)? Worldly people who don’t have such an awareness cannot leave the cycle of the twelve nidanas (meaning causes or motivations), let alone eliminate the eighty-one afflictions (that have been produced due to misunderstanding regarding reality) and the eighty-eight illusions (including five afflictions of advanced practitioners, also known as five views: view of self, extreme view, evil view, view of attachment to views, and view of morality; and five unintelligent temptations: desire, anger, stupidity, arrogance, and doubt) of thought within the three realms and four Arya satyas (noble truths, including suffering, arising, ending, and path). They cannot realize that the essence of the five skandhas (referring to aggregates of clinging, including the matter of form, sensation, recognition, mental formation, and consciousness) , the twelve ayatana (meaning sense base, including six internal bases: eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, and mind and six external bases: visible objects, sound, odor, taste, touch, and mental objects), and the eighteen dhātavah (meaning compositional elements of human existence, including six consciousness, six faculties, and their objects) are the emptiness and the void. Furthermore, they cannot dispel the two reasons for clinging to the idea of the self and the attachment to elemental constructs and even believe in the two (false) tenets that that karma and nirvana are not real and that the ego and phenomena are real. As a consequence, they fail to develop the eleven wholesome mental factors (faith, energy, conscience, being ashamed, non-attachment, non-aggression, non-delusion, calmness, equanimity, conscientiousness, and non-injuriousness) and cease the sixteen unwholesome mental factors (desire, greed, anger, delusion, arrogance, doubt, wrong view, wrath, enmity, hypocrisy, vexation, jealousy, parsimony, deceit, flattery, harming, ambitiousness, stupidity, lacking of faith, idleness, being unrestrained, forgetting, distraction, non-discernment, ). One must bear in mind that once all our virtuous roots are discontinued, they will be trapped in the never-ending reincarnation and the suffering of infinite continuity.
Is it possible that the hell will be empty one day? If the beings in hell will become extinct while evil spirits inhabit the mundane world, the world could be considered as a pure land. If we could witness the nature of the void, then hell will exist no more.
Since ancient times, the concept of hell has been widely spread among all tribes. Aging, death, beginning, and end are the basis of nature and the core of cosmic consciousness. However, the prosperous civilization as our island is not a place where desire can be eliminated. It’s impossible to eradicate evil nature. Since fetters brought by the constitution, the state, the law, society, the military, corporations, schools, families, and groups are not less than the eighteen levels of hell, the mortals repress themselves, bury their feelings. Day after day, greed, anger, stupidity, arrogance, doubt, and resentment are stacking. However, since the six dust (visible objects, sound, odor, taste, touch, and mental objects) has not yet been extinguished, people in the mundane world are still full of delusions. The demons, devils, evil spirits, and the wondering dead exist in the wilderness, while only advanced practitioners with transcendent would attempt to make contact with the dead in the wasteland and forest. Worldly people like us trespass in Disneyland-like man-made hell. It is absurd and ridiculous that the hellish scenes cannot stop us from perpetrating evil deeds, but the horrific and cruel scenes yet satisfy our self-righteous shame.

The pandemic has been boiling over for more than a year and a half. The number of infected patients worldwide is nearly a hundred and eighty million, and the death toll has risen to four million, which is equivalent to a war crisis. I hope that we can all be compassionate, give peace to the dead, treat all sentient beings well and equally. The hell is innately empty; however, deluded and misleading thoughts would give rise to all jealousy and hatred and then manifest the hell before us. This book merely serves as a memorandum of conscience for dictators of the world’s new cold war, supporters of unrestrained warfare, dark web hackers, and those who are cunning and contemptuous and maltreat others when knowing they have problems.
