黑檀球 林钰堂 黑檀球轻运转灵，回旋掌上悄滑溜； 跋 余练健身球十余载，娴熟此艺，更曾撰文印赠以推广其益。为便旅途携带，请台北佛友代订直径六公分之木球两对。蒙蓝显荣居士承担手工制作，采用黑檀木，经多日辛劳，数度往返工厂使用机器，再上漆十余次，方告成。使用木球较原用之石球轻灵，使手指活动之范围更广，又能悄然滑溜，可免惊扰邻近。原先只图携带轻便，不意发现木球之好处多多。一般健身球，无有木质者，故此举堪称此道之新猷。
相关文章： Black Sandalwood Balls Yutang Lin Black sandalwood balls are light and ready to turn around; Comment: I have practiced health balls often for more than a decade, and am quite familiar with the exercise. I had even written about it in Chinese and English, and printed the articles for free distribution in order to spread its benefits. To ease the burden of carrying them during trips I asked a Buddhist in Taipei to order two pairs of wooden balls with diameter 6 cm each for me. Fortunate for me that Upasaka Xian Rong Lan agreed to undertake the hand making of these balls. He used black sandalwood and toiled on it for days. He ran back and forth several times to the factory to use the machines there, and then lacquered the balls for over ten times until he was satisfied with the results. Using wooden balls is lighter and swifter than using my original marble balls; that enables the fingers to move about more widely while the gliding is much quieter. The gentle noise is less likely to disturb beings nearby. Originally my intention aimed only at ease of transportation; unexpectedly, wooden balls turned out to be of much more benefits. Usually health balls are not made of wood; hence, this endeavor may be deemed a new contribution to this way of doing exercises.
