剎那 ~ Ksana

剎那表示極短的時間，是外來詞，來自梵文 ksana。印度《僧祇律》記載：「剎那者為一念，二十念為一瞬，二十瞬為一彈指，二十彈指為一羅預，二十羅預為一須臾，一日一夜為三十須臾。」意思是24小時有480萬個「剎那」，24萬個「瞬間」，1.2萬個彈指，30個須臾。推知「一剎那」是0.018秒。又據《大毘婆沙論》，一日一夜有30牟呼栗多，900臘縛，54,000怛剎那，6,480,000剎那、一剎那的長度大約是1/75秒（0.013秒）。因此可以了解到一剎那是十分短暫的時間，大約是照相機快門百分之一秒的速度。佛教經典《仁王經》中提到：「一彈指六十剎那，一剎那九百生滅」，算得事相的生成消滅率為每秒216,000次，或說每次生滅約4.6微秒；和目前科技所能達的飛秒時間尺度相比，或者和物理理論上真空漲落的時間尺度相比，也算是相當大的。(from: wikipedia.org)

鳳園 ~ Fung Yuen Butterfly Reserve

Visit the Fung Yuen Butterfly Reserve today and found that the number of butterflies there was extremely small - may due partially to the very high temperature today but, more likely due to the construction work of a private housing estate nearby. What a pity!!
