Appreciate the Buddha's mind and Zen of Andy Lau

For more than 20 years, he has been a top-line star and film company owner, and the wealth of the deity of the king of heaven Andy Lau can be said to be countless, and no one can guess. How much money does Andy Lau have? I believe many people are interested in this issue.


Mr. Yan Xiang roughly calculated the accounts for him: every year there are constant appointments and advertisements, and he holds world tour concerts every three to five, and he has a steady stream of gold in his pocket. And these are not counted for the time being. For the movie alone, Andy Lau, who has been in the film for nearly 40 years, has shot more than 120 movies. Among them, his own film company holds the copyright of more than 20 movies. If he didn't work all year, he was able to receive a net royalty of more than $1 million. His achievements in the music scene are even more surprising. He was once named the "Most Awarded Hong Kong Male Singer" by the Guinness Book of World Records.

founded the Andy Lau Charity Foundation in 1994. In 2000, he was named one of the top ten outstanding young people in the world. In 2005, the Asian New Star Guidance Project was launched. He was appointed as a non-official justice of the peace in Hong Kong in 2008. In 2016, he was re-elected as vice chairman of the China Disabled Persons Welfare Foundation.



What is surprising is that Andy Lau, as an evergreen tree in film and television and a rich man in the entertainment industry, spends nearly half of his income every year on charity. In addition to movie royalties, even the red envelope money he earns from helping friends cut the ribbon every year, he also directly enters his charity foundation, mainly to help the elderly, children and people with intellectual disabilities in Hong Kong.


Because he is a Hong Kong citizen, a long time ago, someone asked him if the scope of funding was limited to Hong Kong, or would he consider the Mainland? Andy Lau did not hesitate to answer publicly in an interview on the eve of a concert in Nanjing: Yes, whether they are from Hong Kong or from the Mainland, they are all Chinese. We Chinese are quite strong in helping each other. In fact, this concert in Nanjing is a good opportunity. School has just started. If I have the opportunity, I would like to help those children whose families have difficulties and cannot go to school.


Liu Tianwang’s charitable actions are evidenced by a large amount of data. The following are just some of the representatives:

13. 2020 Hubei Wuhan New Coronary Pneumonia, Andy Lau took the lead in donating 20 million materials to Wuhan. As Yan Xiangjun working in Wuhan, Hubei, I would like to express my deep gratitude.

The reason why Liu Tianwang cares about public welfare has never slackened for decades. So what is driving him? Yan Xiangjun once saw some interview reports of Liu Tianwang in film and television magazines. Next, please come and appreciate it with Yanxiang!

He said that since he came into contact with Buddhism earnestly and was inspired by Master Miaolian, he has become more magnanimous than before, and his outlook on life is also open-minded. Because I don’t have a deep understanding of Buddhism principles, I can’t preach Buddhism, I can only do things personally and do more good things.


He often thinks of Master’s teachings to him, such as: "If you do not become a Buddha, you must first become popular. Just use your compassion, say kind words, help others to be kind, and see others doing good deeds, expressing joy and admiration, and making the other person accomplished. , Can cultivate Futian extensively."

He realized that as an artist, he can use his identity medium to promote kindness and persuade more people to show love and participate in charity activities. To contribute money or effort to help the poor and helpless is to make good destiny. Artists in this entertainment circle often worry about fighting for this "first". But Andy Lau, under the teachings of his master, understood the meaning of the real number one: when everyone needs you, you can give them what they need, you are the number one.


In addition, everything, such as wealth and success, has its order. Buddhism talks about karma, season, cause and effect, and retribution. You must follow the order, step by step, if the time is not there, it's useless if you think about it. When the time comes, you will come too.

The so-called: No wonder Liu Tianwang has become popular in the entertainment industry for decades. It turns out that this is his mystery.


Yan Xiangjun is an out-and-out fan of Huazai, who can sing nearly 70 songs. Of course, although Yan Xiangjun likes it, he hasn't even been to one of his concerts. One is poor, and the other is busy. But then again, Yan Xiangjun believes that if you listen to the songs he sings more, it shouldn't matter whether you listen on-site or off-site. Learn more about his life, especially his life and the Buddha's mind. I also hope that everyone is like me. This is also my original intention of writing this article.

Therefore, friends who often listen to Andy Lau's songs must have the same impression as Yan Xiangjun. Among the many classic love songs of Liu Tianwang, there are indeed many that contain his Buddhist mind and Zen. You may wish to find some time, such as: "The Will of God", "Forget Love", "Kick a Future", "Goldfish and Muyu", "Stupid Child", "Lone Star Tears", "Infernal Affairs", "Love" "You Ten Thousand Years" and so on.


It is especially worth mentioning that Andy Lau wrote and sang a very nice song "Enlightenment", which was used in the movie "New Shaolin Temple" starring him. Mr. Yan Xiang listened frequently before going to bed recently and felt that he had gained a lot. Now I share the lyrics with you. I hope you will listen and sing more. I believe you will understand and gain.

no limits, breath, love is connected

why you turn a blind eye, the rules are

simple and simple, walk with you every day
