終於要來分享這個月入手的書籍,《沙丘》這六本一字排開真的氣勢十足,而且還有很多值得介紹的好書。另外,也偷偷預告一下,思考過後,這裡即將重新展開「每月推薦書單」的單元,不同於過去在月初公佈的一次一本,我將會精心挑選當月五本自己相當喜愛的作品,並稍做介紹,希望也能做為大家選購書籍時的參考之一。應該可以把每月固定有的這篇當作初選名單,月底的新單元當作第二階段決選名單之類(自己說

先來看,早已介紹過的《#沙丘》六部曲,括《沙丘》、《沙丘:救世主》、《沙丘:沙丘之子》、《沙丘:神帝》、《沙丘:異端》與《沙丘:聖殿》等六本,取材自美國作家法蘭克赫伯特赫伯特擔任記者時研究海岸沙丘的資料,1965 到 1985 年間歷經六年醞釀構思、二十多次退稿才順利出版,是史上公認最偉大也最暢銷的科幻小說,赫伯特從沒沒無聞到異軍突起,克勤克儉堅持寫作,悉心建構出完整的沙丘宇宙,成為 20 世紀舉足輕重的重要作家之一。內容精彩地融合了科學事實、文學小說、環境保護主義與政治,走出和常見科幻小說頗為不同的新路,一舉獲得了雨果獎和第一屆星雲獎,為科幻小說界最宏大的一部史詩打下基礎。
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
是枝裕和的《#與希林攜手同行》則是一封無法寄出的情書,2007 年到 2018 年過世的十二年間,是枝與希林合作拍攝了六部電影、二部廣告、一集電視紀錄片,並在《SWITCH》雜誌進行六場「導演 VS. 演員」的深入訪談:以演戲為核心,輻射出相關的人事物,由希林半世紀的從影生涯,道出日本近五十年的影視文化、演藝生態、藝人功過及幕後祕辛。希林過世後,是枝無法停止思念這位母親,「能將希林談論演出的言論以書籍的形式保留下來,是件很有意義的事。」於是,他以雜誌對談內容為基底,翻閱十多年來的行事曆和拍攝日誌,回想兩人的日常互動與希林在拍攝現場的一言一行,融入自己的閱讀思考,在她逝世週年前夕,完成《與希林攜手同行》。
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
《英倫情人》的作者麥可翁達傑睽違七年的新作《#戰時燈火》也在本月問世,一部戰火下因祕密而青春破碎的哀歌,隱藏著一群神祕英雄的黑色寓言故事。1945 年,戰爭剛結束。十四歲少年納桑尼的父母卻在此刻離開英國遠赴海外,離開他們,將他和姊姊獨自留在倫敦,交給一個可能是罪犯,名為「飛蛾」的男人照顧。之後經常有一群古怪的陌生人到家裡來。每個人看上去都有祕密,似乎都與他們的母親有著某種關係。多年後,28 歲的納桑尼對於母親當年的不告而別還是耿耿於懷,於是他決心重新挖掘真相。主角拼湊著宛如當年燈火管制下的破碎記憶,拒絕成為一個沒有過去的人,回憶成為最堅固的人生防禦,作者無疑是編織回憶的藝術家。文學寫出了事物的複雜性,翁達傑將複雜寫出了美。
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
此本《#無法平靜的夜晚》則出自布克國際獎史上最年輕得主,2020 年英國布克國際獎公佈時,媒體一片嘩然,因為獲獎者瑪麗珂.盧卡絲.萊納菲爾德不但過去沒寫過小說,且年僅 28 歲,從世界各地 124 部入圍作品中脫穎而出,其中不乏知名作家,評審卻選擇了荷蘭新人萊納菲爾德初試啼聲的第一部小說。故事從一個十歲孩子的口吻,純真又大膽地描述一場失去親人後的成長故事。整個悲劇發生一個保守的基督教農家,主角賈絲為了擔心心愛的兔子被當作聖誕晚餐,默默祈禱哥哥代替兔子死去,不料哥哥真的在溜冰時遭遇不測,從此這個家庭成員越來越古怪,父親自殘、母親厭食、主角和另一個哥哥以及妹妹越來越讓人憂心。萊納菲爾德曾出版過談及死亡主題的詩集,用字新穎情感深刻,早就拿過詩歌獎,這部小說濃厚的個人色彩在出版後大受討論,並翻譯成多國語言,成為荷蘭第三個入圍布克國際獎的作家,且成功拿下大獎,成為該獎項史上最年輕的得主。
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
《#靈魂穿越手稿》的討論度也相當高,書中書、謎中謎、本書有如文字版桌遊,從書信到懸疑解謎到奇幻浪漫的類型翻轉,就來自於法國作家亞歷斯蘭德金。巴黎高級書籍裝幀師收到一份散發詭異謎樣氣息的散裝書稿,委託他照頁次順序裝訂,唯一條件:不准閱讀內容。客戶是愛書成癡的神祕男爵夫人,收藏珍本名書舉世罕見,尤其專精詩人波特萊爾的作品。沒多久,男爵夫人意外身亡,且沒有對書稿留下隻字片語。裝幀師忍不住和妻子輪流捧讀,發現整本書簡直難以言喻,乍看是三部獨立故事,但男爵夫人卻又留下另一套閱讀順序,再成另一個故事。這本書究竟是浪漫派惡德詩人波特萊爾的最終作品;還是巴黎淪陷前夕流亡作家班雅明遭遇的驚悚謀殺故事;抑或是,奇幻魔法海島上,一名追尋百年、永生不死的魔法師告白?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
暢銷小說《#來自星星的奇蹟》當時第一眼看到就覺得一定要讀,故事敘述一名正在攻讀博士學位的鳥類學家喬,母親罹癌過世後,瘋狂投入工作,試圖忘記孤獨和痛苦。後來診斷出乳癌,與男友分手,這才發現大自然與鳥,彷彿是陪著她度過剩餘人生的緩刑。她前往一座偏僻小鎮繼續研究,一天,在後院遇見自稱來自西翠亞星球的高智商小女孩珥莎,星星女孩說自己必須來地球見證五個奇蹟,才能取得家鄉的博士學位。這段期間,兩人一同觀察靛藍彩鵐築巢,將螢火蟲散在黑夜裡形成星座圖案,喬發現珥莎所在之地彷彿充滿了魔法,而奇蹟也一個個降臨。但喬愈來愈困惑,為什麼遇見珥莎之後好事接連不斷?為什麼珥莎晚上總會消失?為什麼她在紙上畫了一座墳墓,上頭卻寫著「我愛妳,對不起」?這個看似不到十歲的高智商女孩身上,到底藏著什麼祕密?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
日前特別介紹過的《#深入絕境:戰地記者瑪麗.柯爾文的生與死》,是此排唯一一本傳記。瑪麗柯爾文為歐美家喻戶曉的偉大戰地記者,她曾隻身訪問利比亞狂人「瘋狗」格達費,也在以巴衝突的硝煙中與阿拉法特會面,還獲贈珍珠。她走訪戰地,無懼砲火,關注殘破世界裡珍貴的一絲人性。即使她在轟炸中瞎了左眼、左耳失聰,但仍止不住她凝視真實、報導真相的熱情,之後更以「獨眼」的女俠形象深深烙印在多數人的記憶當中。在世人眼中,她是勇者,是英雄,是戰爭的證人,是一位堅毅而反叛的女性;在這本傳記中,讀者更能看到,她也是有血有肉、時而脆弱、時而迷惘的個人。她因為性別而受到不同的眼光和待遇,也和所有人一樣,會恐懼、會掙扎,僅有平凡的肉身,但她不曾因此卻步,直到死亡都仍體現人性與人道的精神。
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
身為日本移民下一代的美國作家大塚茱麗,改編自其家族史的《#天皇蒙塵》也非常值得一讀,關於日裔美國人集中營的故事。1941 年 12月 7 日,日軍空襲太平洋歐胡島的珍珠港,揭開了太平洋戰爭的序幕,也是日裔美國人噩夢的開始。美國西岸超過十一萬名日本人與日裔美國人被視為國家的敵人,不分性別、年齡皆送到各地拘留營(但日裔美國人認為這就是集中營),圈禁超過三年,直到二戰結束才返回家園。這就是《天皇蒙塵》故事的背景,她以母親小時的親身經歷為本,寫出這個既詩意又殘酷,簡練卻充滿細節的獨特作品,2002 年出版就備受各界好評,也獲得文學獎項,提醒世人這個發生在美國的違反人權事件不該被遺忘,美國一直到 1988 年雷根政府時期,也就是超過四十年後才對日裔美國人進行補償。
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
還有一本,是即將到來的公視時代劇《#茶金》的小說,1949 年,全臺灣最大茶葉出口商的獨生女張薏心,原本應招贅一個男人,接管她的人生與父親吉桑的龐大事業。為了證明自己的價值,她介入債臺高築的家族事業,在一個沒有「女商人」的時代,學習談判、妥協、忍辱、抉擇,穿梭在以男人為主的商場上,以行動證明自己的能耐和本事,在一場場「茶葉商戰」中,帶領著搖搖欲墜的公司尋找生路。一個無法代表家族在宗祠上香的客家女兒,歷經退婚、倒債和詭譎難測的政商算計,如何靠著不服輸的意志和精準的判斷,贏得父親的信任,並將臺灣特有的膨風茶推向世界舞臺?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
必須推的還有這本 CD 書《#樂讀普希金》,是音樂與文學的交流,也是頂尖音樂家的合作,由四位卓越音樂家與作者在台港兩地演出,長達五年以上的解說音樂會計畫。收錄的樂曲不只具代表性且悅耳動聽,更包含最高難度的重磅經典。《尤金奧涅金》的〈塔蒂雅娜寫信場景〉與《鮑利斯郭多諾夫》的〈郭多諾夫駕崩場景〉,向來被視為女高音與男低音曲目中的頂冠名作,聲樂名家林慈音的清麗美聲與羅俊穎的醇厚嗓音,各自為角色投注真實、豐富且深刻的情感,和亦為指揮家的鋼琴家許惠品,共同打造出刻骨銘心的戲劇場面。他們在《黑桃皇后》與《阿列可》等著名詠嘆調中,也有淋漓盡致且面面俱到的精彩演唱。曾任國家交響樂團首席的小提琴名家李宜錦,不只以弓弦歌唱出情韻綿長的〈連斯基詠嘆調〉,更毅然挑戰極其刁鑽艱深、至今錄音版本仍屈指可數的炫技奇作《金雞音樂會幻想曲》,亮麗佳績令人讚嘆。長達七萬字以上的解說不只介紹普希金、討論如何詮釋普希金、比較音樂改編版與原作的異同,每曲也有精細分析,包括歌詞翻譯、演奏演唱技法與音樂設計詳解,讓讀者知其然也知其所以然。
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
最後一部,則是韓國國民詩人羅泰柱最受歡迎詩選集《#像看花一樣看著你》,不但是韓劇《男朋友》劇中定情書,更收羅年輕讀者喜愛的羅泰柱詩作 115 首,相當適合當作睡前讀物。羅泰柱在小學任教 40 餘年,與孩子每天的一來一往,讓他的文字始終真誠,充滿溫暖的人生智慧。最有名的〈草花〉一詩曾獲選為韓國全民最愛的一首詩,收進國小及國中教材,深受讀者的愛戴。羅泰柱2007年離開教職後,重病被醫生宣告不治後痊癒,他重新感受到人生的珍貴與無常,進而在家鄉創建草花文學館,並開辦多項文學獎鼓勵創作人,成為韓國文壇一束溫暖曙光。

「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?
病毒肆虐年半有餘,全球確診者逼近一億八千萬,枉死者近四百萬,堪比戰爭規模,望眾生發慈悲心、令往生者安息、善待其他物種、平等有情眾生。地獄本空,唯妄念生起一切羨慕嫉妒恨而地獄現前。盡以此書作為世界新冷戰獨裁者、超限戰者、暗網駭客、陰險狡猾冷嘲熱諷落井下石者之良知備忘錄矣。
姚瑞中寫於2021年端午節
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.

疫情爆發以來,藝術家能做的事不多,平常就閉關在家其實挺習慣,但是總想為社會做些事、幫上忙,想了半天安撫人心也許還行吧!於是另一本「地獄空」將趕在中元普渡八月初出版上市,由典藏出版社社長發心首肯出版,設計名家黃子欽操刀,附贈很多符咒給大家趨吉避凶。諸惡莫作,眾善奉行,疫情消退,平安喜樂。附上後記給大家解封後參訪這些宮廟,觀照自己的心所。全文如下:
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、鐘情黑白世界之單純,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、儒教鸞堂、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)乃至米開郎基羅(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糟屠殺,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?
病毒肆虐年半有餘,全球確診者逼近一億八千萬,枉死者近四百萬,堪比戰爭規模,望眾生發慈悲心、令往生者安息、善待其他物種、平等有情眾生。地獄本空,唯妄念生起一切羨慕嫉妒恨而地獄現前。盡以此書作為世界新冷戰獨裁者、超限戰者、暗網駭客、陰險狡猾冷嘲熱諷落井下石者之良知備忘錄矣。

🔥超級巨星茱蒂嘉蘭的感人傳記,人生最後一年真實還原!
🔥『彩虹之上』是影史最佳電影主題曲,捧紅茱蒂卻也摧毀了她!
🔥她是超級富婆卻無家可歸?一生都在尋找真愛?十歲就被餵食毒品?母女都是同志偶像?新影片一次告訴你!
🎁留言抽全期電影兌換券,辦法在影片最後!
或許對於年輕一點的觀眾來說,茱蒂嘉蘭Judy Garland這個名字可能有點陌生,但她不僅唱紅了影史最佳電影歌曲『彩虹之上』,還年僅17歲就獲得了奧斯卡最佳青少年演員獎。
不過從她幼年童星時期就被迫養成的用藥習慣,加上後來的酗酒以及情緒和財務管理問題,讓她璀璨的一生被蒙上了許多陰影,後來更直接導致了她在1969年時年僅47歲就英年早逝。作為她的傳記電影,《茱蒂》敘述了她人生最後一年的時光,並藉由回顧她童年時期的成長來呼應她成年之後的苦痛。
飾演Judy Garland的是實力派演員Renée Zellweger,我們後來在做這支影片的時候看了許多當年Judy的影片,發現不只在扮相上十分相似,就連舉手投足、講話的神情、甚至是情緒不穩時的臉部抽動都非常傳神,因此我們也十分看好能在接下來的頒獎季受到許多肯定。
今天的節目我們會先藉由討論劇情來分享這部電影教了我們的事,接著會根據查到的資料告訴你七個Judy Garland的相關知識,相信會讓你更加認識這位不朽的巨星喔!

DC漫畫旗下的超級英雄沙贊的獨立電影,主要卡司有柴克萊威飾演沙贊,亞瑟安傑爾飾演少年的比利貝特森,傑克迪倫格雷澤飾演比利最好的朋友佛萊迪,吉蒙韓蘇飾演俱備強大魔法力量同時看管邪惡勢力的巫師,馬克史壯飾演反派希瓦納博士。
年輕的比利貝特森發現他獲得神秘巫师沙贊的能力,能對抗協惡勢力,每當他喊出「沙贊」(Shazam),就能變身,擁有所羅門王的智慧、海格力斯的力氣、泰坦神族阿特拉斯的耐力與宙斯操縱雷電的神威、阿基里斯的勇氣、赫爾墨斯的速度。
故事講述,他是十四歲的男孩比利貝特森,輾轉生活在數個寄養家庭之間,校園生活也並不如意,但是他有顆善良的心,被一名俱備神力的巫師選中,並賜予「沙贊」的神力。從此他只要喊出「沙贊!」就會立刻變身成年後的自己,穿上超級英雄的披風與緊身衣,成為另類的超級英雄。
沙贊,DC的最新電影,漫畫之中最原本的「驚奇隊長」,直到漫威把這個商標註冊走。
所以,它能夠讓DC重新振作嗎? 它能夠帶來如《大黃蜂》帶給變形金剛的價值嗎?
在我看完了之後,答案是... 先來看看它的故事好了。
但是,在你繼續看之前,我要先說清楚,這是個點評,
也就是在我看完之後用盡量無雷的方式告訴你我對於這部電影的想法,
不是一個劇透解析,
所以如果你點進來期待看到的是對於這部電影的暴雷分析,我不想浪費你的時間,
趕快點一下右上角的XX吧。
《沙贊》講述巫師議會所看守的七宗罪逃脫,即將開始四出肆虐,
因此僅存的巫師沙贊急切尋找繼承人來延續它的力量,被選中的人,
就是咱們的主角比利海...
比利巴特森。
一個毫無牽掛,完全不在乎任何其他人的孤兒,
於是,故事就此展開。
首先,只看沙贊這個角色的畫室非常有魅力以及娛樂性的,
一個青少年突然擁有了大人的身體,這種正常與荒唐的對比當然能造就出許多喜劇。
(關於這點可以去看看我做的喬登皮爾的影片)
在還沒變身之前,比利可說是個木訥,甚至封閉的人。
「一個不斷逃家的孤兒」這種設定在電影之中早就是被談到爛的故事了,
而沙贊並沒有在這個萬年老梗之上加上特別突出的角度,但是!
觀眾們確實可以完全理解為什麼主角會如此拒人於外,甚至可說是討人厭。
而就是因此,他在變身之後的巨大轉變才會如此深刻,
我在跟看完電影的朋友討論過後,有些人覺得他變身沙贊之後個性轉換過大,
從一個愛理不理的青少年變成對任何事都興奮不已的瞎弟。
但是對我來說這完美展現了青少年的矛盾。
在那種年紀,我們表面上都想要顯現是「酷」的,
但是其實內心還是保有著一些童趣。
而當比利得到了這個超乎常人,讓他充滿無人能及的自信的身體之後,
自然就不需要去在意自己呈現的形象,於是就如此完全放開。
柴克利里維完美演出一個大男孩的形象,
這種角色非常容易就演出過度,把整個角色變成從頭到腳的笑柄,
但是他在絕大多數時候完美地平衡青少年的驚訝以及不確定感。
而他在寄養家庭的兄弟-傑克狄倫格雷澤飾演的弗萊迪-在電影之中扮演他的「導師」。
幾乎像是所有坐在螢幕前的DC粉絲化身,他用他的超級英雄知識來帶領比利領會他的潛力,
讓往往是超級英雄電影之中最讓人疲憊的部分-訓練和認知自己的能力-變得充滿趣味。
電影中他問了這麼一句:「你有看過哪個超級英雄的跟班很酷的?」
但是毫無疑問的,這部電影如果沒有這個跟班,絕對會失色許多。
可惜的是在反派部門就沒這麼幸運了,
這又是一部浪費了一線演員的反派。
馬克史壯飾演的希瓦納博士有個非常能夠讓人理解,甚至為他覺得可憐的背景故事,
這整部電影的開場戲甚至就是他的兒時回憶。
但是在這樣充滿潛力的背景故事之下,在後半部也不過是淪落為英雄的沙包。
也許超級英雄電影的主體是英雄,但是在經過了這麼多年,
無論是漫威或DC都產生了這麼多動機深刻,威脅性懾人的反派之後,
希瓦納絕對不會在超級英雄的歷史殿堂之中留下任何一筆痕跡。
所幸其他環繞比利的角色都比預期中鮮明。
因為比利的寄養家庭不只有弗萊迪一個手足,
我本來已經準備好看到一部讓其他兄弟姊妹完全沒有發揮空間的電影了,
然而他們對於劇情的推動以及比利的角色進展所發揮的作用都意外地多。
而比利的角色曲線在目前的DC電影之中的完整度是僅次於神力女超人的,
幾乎像是漫威的兩個彼得的合體,
同時要認知到力量愈大,責任愈大,以及聖約之血濃與子宮之水,
也就是真正的家人,並不一定要有血緣關係。
不過,這些證明有這麼多正面特質,
我在看得時候不免覺得已經看過好幾次這部電影了,
這些元素應該要管用,我骨子裡的DC漫畫粉絲應該要感到極度興奮,
但是無論如何就是甩不掉,「這部電影還ok」的感受。
對我來說,這部電影的目標年齡層明顯跟其他超級英雄電影比起來是比較低的。
並不是說它幼稚,而是幾乎所有元素都非常淺顯,
無論是我剛才提到的反派,其中的幽默,試圖帶出的主題,
都無法達成老少咸宜的深刻。
也不是說闔家觀賞的電影就不能有深度,
迪士尼和皮克斯的每一部動畫片都有許多隨著年紀增長會更有感觸的主題。
超粒方 沙贊
