藏传上师会出错吗?

世界各地的朋友们:

多杰雄登议题是个棘手且日益恶化的难题,更甚的是它不会自行化解。本文目的不是为了批评嘉瓦仁波切,也不是为了贬低、严责或含沙射影些什么。我希望能提出三项辩题,来协助你更深入思考雄登议题。在格鲁寺院,辩经是学习、保存和理解佛陀教法不可分割的一部分。因此,我阐述了三个辩论假设情景。

因此,这里所阐述的问题或答案都不是一成不变或确切的,它们仅是我的想法。我希望大家能仔细研读,同时不被我所提出的感到冒犯;不管我说了些什么,我对嘉瓦仁波切仍心存最深的敬意;而我对嘉瓦仁波切、我的上师们、我的修行和我的护法的信心也不会动摇。我选了中间道路。我无法允许自己不喜欢任何人,或不喜欢包括嘉瓦仁波切在内的的其中一位上师。对我上师的尊敬和信心不代表我无法对他们所做的、我无法理解的或我认为无法利益他人的决定,提出质疑。根据《事师五十师颂》(Gurupancasika),我可以恭敬地向包括嘉瓦仁波切在内的上师提出疑问。有些人认为,要对修持雄登法门的上师、嘉瓦仁波切和雄登护法三者同时生起敬意,是不可能的事。我在这方面毫无问题,我可以对三者同时生起敬意。

我跟嘉瓦仁波切的三昧耶,与我跟其他授我教诲上师之间的三昧耶同等重要。事实上,我从某位上师处获得的教诲,包括嘉瓦仁波切在内的其他上师皆无权推翻。

对于其他上师赐予我的修持法门,嘉瓦仁波切不可以吩咐我舍弃这个修持或那个修持。我跟从我的上师,并非因为他们名声高或威望高,而是因为他们改变了我的生命。因此,我恭敬地持续我的修持,并且希望嘉瓦仁波切有一天能迅速地以和睦友好的方式,将影响全球百万人、导致寺院、僧人和社区分离的雄登议题画上休止符。除了跟嘉瓦仁波切之间的三昧耶,我跟其他上师的三昧耶也同等重要。但是,嘉瓦仁波切却不能因为他是我们的俗世领袖或地位高,而推翻我们跟其他上师的三昧耶。地位在灵修修持和我该遵从哪位上师方面,没有立足之地。

我们追求一个和睦友好的解决方案。祈愿修持雄登法门的领袖能在短期内跟西藏领袖会面,以双赢的方式解决雄登冲突。在所有的冲突中,不管对还是错,重要的是,双方坐下来面对面进行对话。自1996年起,来自不同雄登社区的领袖,已经以书面方式要求与嘉瓦仁波切会面讨论雄登议题。不过,迄今为止嘉瓦仁波切与其私人办公室一直都未对会面发出只言片语。这项会面可以在嘉瓦仁波切位于达兰萨拉的居所,或者在一个他选择的地点进行。

这项问题不会自行消失,况且问题并非由雄登社区而起。400年前就已经有几百万人修持雄登法门至今。它不可能单凭嘉瓦仁波切一句话,而突然变成一项错误或具破坏性的法门。几百位其他说雄登法门利益众生的高僧大德又如何呢?他们全都错了吗?凭什么说他们全都错了?因为他们没有崇高的身份和地位?嘉瓦仁波切在许多公开场合上反对雄登法门,如此做法伤害了许多人的感情;我们希望能有一个和平对话,要求嘉瓦仁波切意识到他的谈话对许多人造成伤害。

假使嘉瓦仁波切能够“宽恕”共产党与它在西藏造成的所有破坏,为何他不能“宽恕”雄登人,跟雄登人会面?可以肯定的是,雄登人对西藏和其他地区所造成的“破坏”相对来得少。事实上,根本就没有造成任何破坏。是时候开始进行调停与和解了。在任何国家,一旦发生冲突,如果涉及的一方愿意与对方领袖和谈,领袖理应进行会面,尽快化解冲突。我非常期望嘉瓦仁波切或西藏领袖能跟雄登社区的领袖会面,为这项问题寻求一个双赢的解决方案。这项会面只会产生好的结果。

当今领袖不该抨击任何信仰、修持或灵修道路。抨击一个人的信仰,特别是抨击出自有影响力者之口,将导致禁令的发布。这(抉择)完全取决于个人。它既毫无助益又带来隔离。它制造了藩篱,而当今世界已有足够的冲突。

请详读以下的三种假设情景,从各种角度来审查,看看这雄登议题/禁令是否具备其逻辑性。请深入思惟这三个假设情景。在辩论种,你或许可以提出看起来不敬的问题,但是你的目的不是要对人无礼,而是为了从各种可能的角度来更好地了解一个状况。我祝福你。

詹杜固仁波切

—————————————————————————————

假设情境(三):

1. 上师会出错吗?
高证悟的上师就不会出错,一般的上师则可能出错。
2. 是不是所有上师都会出错?
只有一些上师会出错,视乎他们的学习、修行、思维锐利度和成就而定。
3. 嘉瓦仁波切会出错吗?
不,他不会。
4. 所有的上师和嘉瓦仁波切都出错了吗?
有些上师会出错,但是嘉瓦仁波切不会出错。嘉瓦仁波切是个例外?
5. 哪些上师会出错,哪些上师又不会出错?
学有所长、思维锐利和有成就的上师不会出错。
6.有可能所有上师都会出错吗?
不。有些上师是不会出错的。他们出错与否视他们的学习、修行、思维锐利度和成就而定。
7. 是不是唯独嘉瓦仁波切不会出错,其他上师都可能出错?确实如此的话,原因何在?
唯独嘉瓦仁波切不会出错,其他的上师都会出错是不合逻辑的看法。还有许多上师是学识渊博又获得高成就的;嘉瓦仁波切并不是唯一的学识渊博和修得高成就的上师。地位、权力和位阶并不是不出错的保证。
因此,跟嘉瓦仁波切的三昧耶并不是最重要的,反之跟我们根本上师的三昧耶才是最重要的。因此,要求我们放弃雄登修持及破坏跟自己上师的三昧耶是不是错误的?你去想一想。
8. 嘉瓦仁波切是唯一修得最高成就的上师?
不。因为当一个人证悟,不管是菩萨的层次(一地至十地)或者成佛,两者的成就都无异。换言之,所有佛都是平等的,因为不论他们的权位身份,所有获得成就的上师都是平等的。成就之间没有差别。否则,佛与佛之间就会出现不平等,那将是不合逻辑的。
9. 当一位上师修得成就,他们的成就是否跟嘉瓦仁波切同等吗?
是的,获得成就的上师之间是没有区别的。假使他们的成就是同等的,那么身份、地位和俗世权位也就无关紧要了。
10. 假使有成就的上师无法跟嘉瓦仁波切相提并论,那么佛位是不是拥有不同的层次。你的意思是有些佛比另一些佛的成就高?
当然不是。所有获得成就的上师都看到娑婆的真实相,并修成了菩提心和空性见。因此,他们的成就应该是无异的。
11. 嘉瓦仁波切的上师会出错而嘉瓦仁波切不会出错?
假使嘉瓦仁波切的上师会出错,他们错误的教诲也会传授给嘉瓦仁波切,这些错误的教诲也就不限于雄登修持。因此,嘉瓦仁波切有可能传授给公众更多错误的教诲。既然嘉瓦仁波切的上师会出错,在他们传授他佛法的40年里,如果说没有犯下其他的错误是不合逻辑的。因此,我们可以预设嘉瓦仁波切可能在不知情的情况下授予错误的教诲。假使雄登修持是个错误,嘉瓦仁波切极有可能传授了其他错误的教诲。为何仅有雄登修持是来自错误上师的唯一过失?
还是嘉瓦仁波切的上师根本不会出错,因此雄登禁令是错误的,因为他的上师不可能出错。
12. 假使嘉瓦仁波切不会出错,为何他拜会出错的上师为师?
嘉瓦仁波切的经师不会出错,因为在一个全国满是有成就、学识渊博和修行有成上师的国度里,他们不会挑选国内最低级别的人来担任嘉瓦仁波切的经师。
13. 假使嘉瓦仁波切的上师会出错,他们除了传授雄登修持予嘉瓦仁波切以外,是否在其他方面也出错?
假使我们认为他们会出错,那么他们就有可能将错误的教诲授予嘉瓦仁波切;嘉瓦仁波切也可能在知情和不知情情况下,将错误的教诲传授下去。你来决定。
14. 由于嘉瓦仁波切的上师会出错,有无此可能嘉瓦仁波切所传授的其他教诲也同样出错?
假使我们相信嘉瓦仁波切的上师会出错,那么我们就要推断嘉瓦仁波切也会出错。嘉瓦仁波切怎么可能比他的导师更有成就?若是如此,他的上师应该拜嘉瓦仁波切为师才是。假使嘉瓦仁波切的上师不会出错,那么他们授予嘉瓦仁波切的雄登修持就不可能是个错误。要么所有方面都有可能出错,要么没有一方面是出错的。你来决定。
15. 假使嘉瓦仁波切的导师不会出错,为何雄登修持是一个错误?
正是如此。
16. 哪位上师或权威决定了哪位上师不会出错,哪位上师又会出错的?
即便是最高权威如嘉瓦仁波切也须从上师那里获取知识,假使他的上师是不完美的,那么可以预知的是嘉瓦仁波切获得的资讯和学识也是有瑕疵的。那么嘉瓦仁波切就有可能出错。嘉瓦仁波切是那一佛教教派的领袖?每一派系自有起领袖,那么按理说,嘉瓦仁波切并不是最高的权威,仅止是最有名的一位而已。他同时也是一位俗世领袖。俗世领袖会出错吗?你希望把嘉瓦仁波切视为西藏的前国王或是一位上师?作为国王(俗世的),他会出错。作为一位有成就的高僧,他不会出错。对这双重角色,你要如何接受?嘉瓦仁波切是一位会出错的俗世领袖,还是一位不会出错的高僧?假使他是一位俗世领袖,那么雄登禁令就是一项失误。假使他是一位高僧,那么雄登禁令也不是正确的,你是否有了结论?其他获得同样成就的高僧也会像嘉瓦仁波切的上师般出错?
17. 透过轮任、选举或血脉遴选出来的宗教领袖都不会出错?
假使一位宗教领袖是轮任的,自然会出现一些素质好的和一些素质不好的领袖。这得看运气。
假使是透过选举遴选出来的领袖,情况也是如此。假使是血脉转世的,情况还是一样;除非是一些有成就的高僧大德转世。无论如何,嘉瓦仁波切是不是唯一的证悟者转世?在处处皆是学者、禅修大师、格西、上师和高僧如西藏等国,嘉瓦仁波切是唯一不会出错的人?
18. 嘉瓦仁波切曾犯其他过错吗?
这就视乎你选择相信那一个版本。你相信嘉瓦仁波切是不会出错或完美的?假使他会出错,那么雄登禁令可以是一个失误,也可以不是一个失误。假使他是完美的,那么雄登禁令就是正确的。然而,嘉瓦仁波切是唯一不会出错的上师吗?伟大的前世班禅喇嘛也包括在内吗?班禅喇嘛学识渊博,前世今生跟其他几千位大师一同修持雄登法门。嘉瓦仁波切会是西藏唯一有成就的大师,其他所有人都没有成就、都会出错?你来决定吧。
19.假使嘉瓦仁波切会出错,那么他的前世也会出错吗?
既然他的前世都是来自同一个心相续,那他就有可能出错。假使他的前世是证悟者,就不可能犯错。再者,嘉瓦仁波切是不是唯一有才干者?你来决定吧。嘉瓦仁波切是不是西藏唯一的证悟者,其他人都没有证悟?这合乎逻辑吗?
20.为何嘉瓦仁波切的感受和看法必定优先于其他上师的感受和看法?
为何每位藏传和非藏传佛教徒只关心他们跟嘉瓦仁波切之间的三昧耶?万一我们并没有从他那儿获得教诲,是不是之间就没有三昧耶?万一我们从嘉瓦仁波切和雄登上师那儿同时获得教诲,为何我们的嘉瓦仁波切的三昧耶必须优先于跟其他上师的三昧耶?为何我们必须取嘉瓦仁波切的教诲,而舍另一位上师的教诲?这是不是说明了其他上师都无关紧要?你来决定吧。假使其他所有上师都无关紧要,为何还需要其他上师?那就关闭所有寺院,大家都向嘉瓦仁波切一人学习即可。假使嘉瓦仁波切有新的转世,既然所有上师都会出错也无关紧要,那么你会挑选谁做他的经师?
21. 为何每位藏传佛教徒必须跟嘉瓦仁波切,而非其他上师保持清净的三昧耶?为何跟嘉瓦仁波切的三昧耶必须优先于其他所有上师?
任何一位学者、辩论大师、博学多才者、证悟者和任何有基本判断力的人都明白,所有上师都重要。因此,跟所有上师的所有三昧耶都一样重要,同时也同等重要。因此,跟嘉瓦仁波切的三昧耶不该优先于其他上师?你来决定吧。
22. 看官们会出错吗?谁告诉你这位上师不会出错、是完美的?他们凭什么这样说?
是的,公众人士和我都会出错。谁告诉你嘉瓦仁波切或哪一位上师是不会出错或是完美的?或许只有嘉瓦仁波切告诉你他是不会出错的?嘉瓦仁波切批准自己是超越所有人,包括授教他长达40年的导师在内的所有上师?你来决定吧。
嘉瓦仁波切是基于他的学习、地位或政治权位,而凌驾于所有上师之上?假使是基于学习的缘故,那又是否意味着没有其他上师具备跟嘉瓦仁波切一样的学习能力?地位是一个人不会出错的保证?政治人物都不会犯错?请举出一位历史上不曾犯错的政治人物。嘉瓦仁波切是历史上唯一不会犯错的政治人物?选择一个你要走的方向,同时始终如一。假使我们认定嘉瓦仁波切是不会出错的,因为他是一位高证悟者,那么我们得出的结论就是——他不是唯一的。有鉴于此,假使许多高证悟者修持雄登法门,那么雄登修持就不会是一个错误?你来决定吧。
23. 假使上师不会出错,他可能示现过错吗?
为了更远大的目的,所有证悟者都能示现过错,因为他们已经没有我执。譬如,当佛陀传法时,他同时扮演了弟子和上师的角色。他示现在群众中提问,目的是利益在场的观众。为什么如此?因为观众或许没有相关的知识来提出疑问。因此,证悟者可以为了更远大的目的而示现冲突/矛盾。或许,嘉瓦仁波切为了雄登修持而这么做?你来决定吧。
24. 不会出错的高证悟上师经常都是一些权高位重者,又或者他们可以是一些平凡的隐士?
高证悟者林林总总,有不同的肤色、性别和层次。因此,即便嘉瓦仁波切是法王,他的成就也会跟一位平凡、没有政治权力的隐士无别。 换言之,所有其他上师的教诲,不会因为他是嘉瓦仁波切,而变得错误或正确。因此,当嘉瓦仁波切说雄登修持法门是不好的,而他的上师却说是好的,我们该相信谁,相信的基础又是什么?你来决定吧。

    Dear friends,

    Tibet has produced many powerful meditations, rituals and guidelines to help us gain spiritual protection, gain wisdom and higher states of consciousness. In general Tibet has produced many powerful methods for the growth of our spiritual evolution. Dorje Shugden is an angel, a saint, a powerful spiritual protector-warrior who originated 350 years ago when a highly awakened Tibetan Lama fulfilled his vows to become a special being to grant protection, wisdom, material needs, safety when travelling (normal and astral travel) and spiritual awakening. Both the Great 5th Dalai Lama and the current His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama composed short yet effective prayers to invoke upon the power and blessings of this special saint and protector. One can recite either one of the prayers that you feel suits you, anytime or even daily. When you feel a special need for help, you can recite either prayer anytime. When you are feeling down, afraid or just need a blessing, you can recite them. After reciting either invocation, it is good to chant the mantra of Dorje Shugden: Om Benza Wiki Bitana Soha.

    You do not have to be a Buddhist or practitioner of any religion to invoke upon the blessings and protection of this special enlightened and awakened angel Dorje Shugden. He helps all without discrimination or bias as he is filled with compassion and love. Divinity has no boundaries, they help all who call upon them.

    Enclosed are the prayers in English, Chinese and Tibetan.

    May you be safe, protected and blessed.

    亲爱的朋友们,

    西藏产生了许多有助于我们得到精神庇佑、取得智慧和更高层次之觉悟的强大禅修法、仪式和教诲。总括来说,西藏产生了许多有助于我们在修行上取得提升的强有力方法。多杰雄登是一个天使,一位圣人和一名护法战士。他的崛起始于350年前,当一位高度觉悟的西藏高僧履行本身的承诺,化身为特别的护法,赐予我们守护、智慧、物质需要、出入平安(平日外游和神游时)和灵修上的觉醒。任何人都可以随时随地在任何时候念诵适合自己的祈愿文。当你需要特别的帮助时,你可以随时念诵任何一篇祈愿文。当你感到沮丧、恐惧或仅是需要加持时,你也可以持诵这些祈愿文。在念诵任何祈请文后,你应该接着念诵多杰雄登的心咒:嗡 班杂 维格 毗札那 娑哈 Om Benza Wiki Bitana Soha。

    要祈请多杰雄登这位特殊、觉悟和觉醒的天使赐予加持和庇佑,你无需是佛教徒或任何宗教的修行者。他总是没有分别或偏见,充满慈悲和慈爱地帮助一切众生。神圣是没有界限的,圣者会帮助有求于他的任何人。

    以下附上英文、中文和藏文的祈愿文。

    愿你平安,常受庇护和加持。

    尊贵的詹杜固仁波切

    Divination (‘mo’) Text by Dorje Shugden

    This is an important divination (‘mo’) text composed by Dorje Shugden himself. Dorje Shugden took trance of the Choyang Dulzin oracle lama, the senior oracle of Gaden Shartse Monastery, and instantly on the spot composed this text within two hours.

    The divination text contains information on how to use dice to do divination for the future and is known to be highly accurate. When practitioners use this text, they will be in direct contact with Dorje Shugden to get answers to questions about the future. It is for those who have good samaya with Dorje Shugden and are free of the eight worldly dharmas to be of benefit to others in divining the future.

    Be blessed with these rare videos featuring explanation and advice about Dorje Shugden practice by His Holiness Kyabje Zong Rinpoche in his own voice. The teaching was requested by Geshe Tsultrim Gyeltsen, one of the earliest masters who taught Tibetan Buddhism in the West.

    His Holiness the 10th Panchen Lama

    Tibetans commonly refer to His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama and His Holiness 10th Panchen Lama as the “sun and moon” of Tibetan Buddhism. They are the center of Tibetan Buddhist civilization, which draws to its sphere of influence millions of non-Tibetan practitioners. The Panchen Lama’s incarnation line began with the 16th abbot of Tashi Lhunpo Monastery, Lobsang Chokyi Gyeltsen (1570 – 1662). He was bestowed the title of Panchen Lama by His Holiness the 5th Dalai Lama after being declared as an emanation of Amitabha.

    After being given the title, his three previous incarnations were posthumously also bestowed the title, making Lobsang Chokyi Gyeltsen the 4th Panchen Lama. He became a teacher to many Tibetans, Bhutanese and Mongolian religious figures, including His Holiness the 4th and 5th Dalai Lamas, and the 1st Jetsun Dampa of Mongolia. A prolific author, Chokyi Gyeltsen is credited with over a hundred compositions, including a number of commentaries and ritual texts that remain central in the Gelukpa tradition today. Along with his role as a teacher of the Dharma, the Panchen Lamas are usually responsible for the recognition of the rebirths of the Dalai Lamas, and vice versa.

    The 10th Panchen Lama, Lobsang Trinley Lhundrub Chokyi Gyeltsen (19 February 1938 – 28 January 1989) continued both the spiritual and political roles of his predecessors. His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, his contemporary, was even heard to say and echo the Panchen Lama’s own words that the Dalai Lama would safeguard Tibet from the outside while the Panchen Lama would safeguard Tibet from the inside, as he never left Tibet after the political troubles of 1959. He was truly loved by the Tibetans, all the way until his passing. When he taught, thousands of people would attend, not only from his own Gelug lineage, but masters and practitioners from all traditions of Tibetan Buddhism.

    At his sprawling monastery of Tashi Lhunpo, he has a special chapel specifically dedicated to Dorje Shugden, where prayers and rituals are performed on a daily basis. In his great omniscience the Panchen Lama held Dorje Shugden as the principal Dharma protector of the monastery. He also personally propitiated Dorje Shugden among other Dharma protectors, and even wrote extensive prayers and rituals to Dorje Shugden. These rituals and prayers are contained within his ‘sung bum’ or collected works, which are provided here. As such a great lama, with an erudite and clear understanding of the Buddhist scriptures, a teacher to millions in both Tibet and China, from an established incarnation line and an emanation of the Buddha Amitabha, he could not be mistaken about his practice of Dorje Shugden.

    His Holiness 10th Panchen Lama is known for his composition of commentaries and practice texts that are still in use by contemporary Buddhist practitioners both in Tibet and across the world. One of these is a powerful ritual composition propitiating the compassionate Dorje Shugden.

    Upon the request by Acharya Lobsang Jangchub to compose a shorter version of the prayer (sadhana) for the exhortation of activities of Dorje Shugden, Panchen Lama immediately composed an abbreviate form of Dorje Shugden’s Kangsol. This text is entitled “Manjunatha’s (Tsongkapa) Lineage protector Dorje Shugden and five forms wrathful propitiations and confessional prayers and fulfilment of activities rites” or “Melodious sound of Accomplishment of the Four Activities” for short. Once the prayers were completed, he had signs and strong feelings that Dorje Shugden has been working hard to protect the Buddhadharma in general and the lineage of Lama Tsongkhapa specifically.

    Mirroring the abilities of one of his earlier incarnations, Khedrub Je, a disciple of Lama Tsongkhapa and master of both sutra and tantra, the Panchen Lama used his compositional skill and poetic prowess to create a masterful sadhana. Worthy of note is a praise in which the first letter of each verse is a Tibetan vowel. Such compositions are rarely seen, and have historically only been used when propitiating senior Dharma protectors such as Palden Lhamo and Kalarupa.

    The Panchen Lama also stated that while composing the Dorje Shugden sadhana (prayers) he was filled with a sense of happiness and bliss. He ends the composition with not only his official title but his ordination name, Tenzin Trinley Jigme Choje Wangchuk, endorsing the validity of his work. He composed the sadhana in his own Tashi Lhunpo monastery while in the Hall of Clear Light and Bliss.

    For the first time available, Dorje Shugden and his entourage of 32 assistants of his mandala.

    Dorje Shugden is a powerful protector deity who is also an emanation of Manjushri, a wisdom bestowing Buddha. Therefore, he has great ability to help us to progress further on the spiritual path. He does this by helping us to overcome obstacles and problems for the modern individual.

    Due to his enlightened nature, Dorje Shugden is able to manifest 32 deities and within the same abode resides Setrap and Kache Marpo:-

    1. 5 Dorje Shugden families or emanations. They consists of the following:-

    – Dulzin Dorje Shugden, which performs activities to eliminate inner and outer obstacles.
    – Shize, which performs activities to pacify all illnesses and disease.
    – Gyenze, which performs activities to increase all desirable material and spiritual wealth.
    – Wangze, which performs activities to control difficult people and circumstances.
    – Trakze, which performs activities to wrathfully eliminate all insurmountable obstacles and life-threatening situations.

    2. 9 Mothers. They represent protection of the five senses and developing control of the four elements. These are all attributes that signify their ability to assist tantric practitioners with their higher meditations.

    3. 8 Guiding Monks. They represent the Eight Great Bodhisattvas (Avalokitesvara, Manjushri, Vajrapani, Samantabhadra, Maitreya, Kshitigarbha, Akashagarbha, Sarva-nivarana-viskambini) and they bring about the growth of the Dharma, through the Sangha, Dharma practitioners and Dharma establishments.

    4. 10 Youthful & Wrathful Attendants. They represent the ten wrathful attendants to avert inner and outer obstacles. They are beings who are from Mongolia, China, Kashmir, India, Bengali, etc.

    5. Setrap. He is a senior Dharma Protector from India and an emanation of Amitabha Buddha. He had enthroned Dorje Shugden as an authentic Dharma Protector. Therefore, he also resides within the same mandala of Dorje Shugden.

    6. Kache Marpo. He is not an emanation of Dorje Shugden but he is still an enlightened Dharma Protector in his own right. He was originally known as Tsiu Marpo of Samye Monastery. However, he has placed himself under the service of Dorje Shugden as his chief minister, performing many activities in order to protect and benefit practitioners. Therefore, he stands guard at the main entrance of Dorje Shugden’s mandala. He often takes trance of qualified mediums to speak.

    7. Namkar Barzin. He is the reincarnation of an old Mongolian monk and when he passed away in Phari area of Tibet, his spirit was placed as a powerful assistant of Dorje Shugden. He guards and protects buildings and great institutions especially those that benefit others. He rides on a mythical Gyaling animal that resembles a goat but with scales.

    These sacred images are available on *Vajrasecrets. They are made of high quality alloy and are one of a kind. They are based on the lineage of His Holiness Panchen Rinpoche’s monastery, Tashilhunpo in Shigatse, Tibet. In fact, the iconography of these statues are based on detailed photographs taken by H. E. Tsem Rinpoche during a trip to Tashilhunpo’s protector chapel. These are based exactly as the 10th Panchen Lama’s personal collection.

    This is such a wonderful change. People who take the time to research and think logically about the Dorje Shugden issue can easily see past the prejudice. I am seeing more and more of this shift away from blind hatred of an ancient and holy practice that has been maligned. Very happy for Suzy.

    Thank You Rinpoche and Pastor Seng Piow for sharing this valuable article. I particularly agreed with below statement:
    “23. 假使上师不会出错,他可能示现过错吗?
    为了更远大的目的,所有证悟者都能示现过错,因为他们已经没有我执。譬如,当佛陀传法时,他同时扮演了弟子和上师的角色。他示现在群众中提问,目的是利益在场的观众。为什么如此?因为观众或许没有相关的知识来提出疑问。因此,证悟者可以为了更远大的目的而示现冲突/矛盾。或许,嘉瓦仁波切为了雄登修持而这么做?你来决定吧。”

    Whatever the attained and high ranked Guru does is to benefit us. We might not be in that level to understand their intention. Hence, strong Guru Devotion is crucial and it is always my guide in Dharma path especially when I am in doubt.

    Thank You to my Guru, H.E.25th Tsem Tulku Rinpoche for always being with us and guiding us regardless how much we disappointed Him.

    Bow down to my Guru’s lotus feet with both folded hands,
    Soon Huat

  13. Jace Chong on Jan 30, 2017 at 11:01 pm

    谢谢仁波切,博客团队以及罗胜彪讲法师分享这发人深思的文章。

    我认同所有上师(藏传)都不会出错,对假设情境3的第23题深思许久。

    “23. 假使上师不会出错,他可能示现过错吗?
    为了更远大的目的,所有证悟者都能示现过错,因为他们已经没有我执。譬如,当佛陀传法时,他同时扮演了弟子和上师的角色。他示现在群众中提问,目的是利益在场的观众。为什么如此?因为观众或许没有相关的知识来提出疑问。因此,证悟者可以为了更远大的目的而示现冲突/矛盾。或许,嘉瓦仁波切为了雄登修持而这么做?”

    因为相信上师不会出错也会同意上师“出错”是为了更远大的目的。雄登禁令对藏人造成分裂的同时也让全世界关注观音化身的嘉瓦仁波切,怎么会做出与自己提倡的世界和平相冲的禁令,也因此让多杰雄登法门更加广传。令我联想到的是,就像1959年嘉瓦仁波切以及许多高僧大德因为文化大革命而被逼离开西藏家园,虽然死伤无数,但另一方面,他们的“逃离”也将西藏佛教弘扬到国际平台。所以一件事情的发生,有不同层次以及各方面的影响。

    我常在思考的另外一点是,嘉瓦仁波切说修雄登者下地狱,那么为何多位雄登大师的转世一再承愿归来?最明显的冲突是嘉瓦仁波切的上师,赤江仁波切。上一世的赤江仁波切修持多杰雄登法门,这一世的赤江仁波切还是由嘉瓦仁波切在1985年4月23日亲自认证。这说明了雄登法门根本没有错,赤江仁波切也没有失误。这禁令是证悟大师为达至远大目的而设。

    但我相信已执行了20年的禁令也是时候解除了,是时候还多杰雄登一个清白。

    谢谢。

    Trode Khangsar Chapel in Lhasa, Tibet

    Over 400 years ago a great and learned lama Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen was famed in Mongolia, Tibet, Nepal and China for being very saintly and compassionate. He resided in his residence (Zimkhang Gongma Ladrang) in Drepung Monastery. His root guru was H.H. the Omniscient 4th Panchen Lama and his close dharma brother was the 5th Dalai Lama.

    The 5th Dalai Lama and Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen had a very close and dharmic relationship and often went to receive teachings together from the 4th Panchen Lama. They were close in age. They both became very learned and well known. During this time, the Dalai Lama was enthroned as a Dharma King of Tibet. But more people went to see Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen for teachings, initiations and divinations. This made the attendants of the 5th Dalai Lama feel threatened that Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen’s fame might usurp the power of the 5th Dalai Lama. So they had a khata forced down his throat. At that moment, Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen dissolved his psychic winds and generated the wish to be a great guardian of Buddha and Tsongkapa’s teachings. As his consciousness dissolved, he entered ‘bardo’ as a dharma protector of the highest order (jikten depey sungma). Many signs were seen throughout Lhasa at this time and the earth was said to have shaken in Lhasa. This event was already predicted to Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen’s previous incarnation when he was one of the 8 main disciples of Lord Tsongkapa the Supreme Master and he served Tsongkapa directly by building Gaden Monastery.

    When the 5th Dalai Lama heard what his scheming and power-hungry attendants had done, he was very distressed. He was very sorry Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen was murdered and dishonored as he was a great dharma master. The 5th Dalai Lama composed an apology to Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen. In Lhasa, tens of thousands gathered for the cremation of Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen’s holy body. During the cremation, the 5th Dalai Lama’s apology was read out at which flames spontaneously arose from the body of Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen commencing the cremation. From the body, during cremation, a powerful whirlwind of smoke tunneled into the sky for all to see as this was an indication Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen’s consciousness has arisen as the Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden. The Dharma Protector Setrap immediately recognized this new protector Dorje Shugden and ‘enthroned’ him as a powerful Dharma Protector in the realm of the Buddhas. From this, Setrap and Dorje Shugden are closely connected and very close working hand in hand always. After the cremation, the great 5th Dalai Lama built a Dorje Shugden chapel on the spot the cremation took place and named it Trode Khangsar. The 5th Dalai Lama commissioned the statue of Dorje Shugden in this chapel and had monks installed in the chapel to do continuous propitiations to Dorje Shugden. Trode Khangsar Chapel was a commemoration to Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen who was wronged and also a celebration of his consciousness arising as the World Peace Peace Protector Dorje Shugden.

    This Trode Khangsar Chapel still exists now in Lhasa where many make pilgrimages there. It is in good condition and was recently renovated. It is over 400 years old and a testimony to the respect the Great 5th Dalai Lama had to Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen who arose as Dorje Shugden.

    I have visited this holy chapel in Lhasa years back. I’ve never heard of it till I was in Lhasa and by chance, I was told about it which I was happy to visit. I could not find the place but strangely a bunch of pilgrims from Amdo told me they would show me how to get there in Lhasa.

    This short video is a short clip of this holy Trode Khangsar Chapel in Lhasa today commemorating Dorje Shugden, built by the great 5th Dalai Lama. The great 5th Dalai Lama even composed a prayer to Dorje Shugden which is still available today and we can recite to invoke the blessings, protection, and assistance of World Peace Protector Dorje Shugden.

    The 5th Dalai Lama’s Prayer to Dorje Shugden

    HUM
    Though unmoving from the sphere of primordial spontaneity,
    With wrathful turbulent power, swifter than lightning,
    Endowed with heroic courage to judge good and bad,
    I invite you with faith, please come to this place!

    Robes of a monk, crown adorned with rhinoceros leather hat,
    Right hand holds ornate club, left holds a human heart,
    Riding various mounts such as nagas and garudas,
    Who subdues the mamos of the charnel grounds, praise to you!

    Samaya substances, offerings and torma, outer, inner and secret,
    Favourite visual offerings and various objects are arranged.
    Although, previously, my wishes were a bit dense,
    Do not stop your powerful apparitions, I reveal and confess!

    Now respectfully praising with body, speech, and mind,
    For us, the masters, disciples, benefactors and entourages,
    Provide the good and avert the bad!
    Bring increase like the waxing moon in spiritual and temporal realms!

    Moreover, swiftly accomplishing all wishes,
    According to our prayers, bestow the supreme effortlessly!
    And like the jewel that bestows all wishes,
    Always protect us with the Three Jewels!

    Very interesting and informative article. In most cultures, women is consider as lower in status compared with men. Ancient times in India, man took the lead while women is seconded. But times has changed for the better where women are not degraded in society. They receive equal recognition, appreciation, and stature, yet in countries and places around the world, women are still viewed as inferior and treated accordingly. But in Buddhism women have been increasing in number and has proven that many of them have gained full enlightenment in a female body. In Buddhism is concerned there’s no discrimination toward women ,both men and women are equal. There‘s many female Mahasiddhas and Yoginis as in this blog. May it inspired many more to come. Interesting article and its great sharing knowledge.
    Thank you Rinpoche with folded hands,

    Sleep paralysis is a feeling of being conscious but unable to move. It occurs when a person passes between stages of wakefulness and sleep. During these transitions, one may be unable to move or speak for a few seconds up to a few minutes. Some people may also feel pressure or a sense of choking. Sleep paralysis is a temporary inability to move or speak. It’s not harmful and should pass quickly, but at times can be frightening. It can affect anyone but is most common in young adults and they might have hallucination. The scary facts about sleep paralysis is those who suffer from it have said it felt like someone was choking them on their chest so they could not breathe.
    As for me I have not experience as such before as least i know now what i can to do.
    Thank you Vinnie Tan for sharing. Interesting read of these stories related to sleep paralysis.

    nteresting as this texts been composed after being inspired to do so . That’s interesting as this nature are traditionally considered exceptionally potent in their blessings if the claim of divine inspiration is authentic. According to the account in the introduction, the author composed this text after being divinely inspired to do so. It’s a very rare kind and its acceptance been recognised and received praise by very high lamas of our tradition. Reading this article tell us all of how powerful Dorje Shugden when we invoke in our prayers.
    Interesting read of the short biography of Ven. Geshe Kunchok Gyaltsen, the author of Mass of Vajra Fire.

    That’s wonderful Rinpoche has composed prayers in English so as everyone could recite and practice. For beginners is such a meaningful insights and perspectives without commitments and initiation. Moreover each prayers is for a specific blessing that helps practitioners to gain attainments and overcome obstacles. Easy and simple for everyone to start off.
    We are fortunate that everything Rinpoche did brought tremendous benefit to all sentient beings. Whatever prayers Rinpoche has composed are especially potent with blessings.
    Thank you Rinpoche and writers for this sharing.

    A great article , revisit this again of Tibetan Lamas and their dogs. As now I have a pet doggie with me, I came to understand more of them . Dogs are the most amazing creatures, they give us unconditional love. For me, they are the role model for being alive. Buddhists believe dogs also have the potential to become enlightened and can teach us about responsibility, love, and other Buddhist principles. The Q & A by Sandra Klein’s interview with the Venerable Gonsar Rinpoche gave us a better understanding and very informative of Tibetan dogs under Lamas care. ccording to the Buddha Dharma, all sentient beings have Buddha nature — from ants to humans. Though we often look at dogs as wonderful companions an teach us to embrace Buddhist principles. They, themselves, embody many of these principles.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this great sharing.

    Living with my wife, whose world is meticulously painted with the hues of OCD, is a journey that intertwines the essence of love with the complexities of the human mind. Her relentless pursuit of cleanliness and order, transforming even the most negligible corner into a testament of organization, often dances on the fine line between admiration and frustration. The sight of her steering clear from trash bins as if they were labyrinths of chaos, serves as a poignant reminder of the battles she fights within. Yet, it’s through these very battles that I’ve learned the profound language of patience and the unspoken strength of support. Therapy, in its gentle embrace, has been a beacon of light for her, guiding her through the stormy seas of OCD. It has not only offered her solace but has also unveiled the strength of her spirit, teaching us both the beauty of resilience. As she journeys through the pathways of healing, I stand by her, a testament to the power of love and the enduring promise of hope. Together, we navigate the complexities of her world, discovering that within the challenges lie opportunities for growth, understanding, and an unbreakable bond. https://www.mindfullyaliveonline.com/obsessive-compulsive-disorder-ocd/

    Venerable Ajahn Chah was a Thai Buddhist teacher of the Buddhadhamma and a founder of two major monasteries in the Thai Forest Tradition. Well respected and loved as a man of great wisdom, he was also instrumental in establishing Theravada Buddhism in the West. Interesting life story, how he chose to leave the settled monastic life and became a wandering ascetic. Walking across Thailand, lived in forests, caves and cremation grounds while learning from the meditation monks of the Forest of various monasteries. He wandered through the countryside in quest of quiet and secluded places for developing meditation. He even lived in tiger and cobra infested jungles, using reflections on death to penetrate to the true meaning of life. After years of wandering, Venerable Ajahn Chah established a monastery where he taught simple, practice-based form of meditation, and attracted a numerous of students including western foreigners. He was one of the greatest Dhamma teachers of the modern era. His wise teachings have continued to guide thousands of people along the path of Dharma. Venerable Ajahn Chah’s teachings of the Thai Forest Tradition gradually spread across all over the world. Several of Ajahn Chah’s Western students have since established monasteries throughout the world. Just in Thailand itself, there are more than 300 branch monasteries in Ajahn Chah’s tradition. Ven erable Ajahn Chah used his ill health as a teaching point, emphasizing that it was a living example of the impermanence of all things and reminded people to endeavour to find a true refuge within themselves. The legacy of Venerable Ajahn Chah’s teachings and legacy continues into the modern age.

    Wonderful blog written on the practice of Kalarupa for us to understand better. As an emanation of Manjushri, Kalarupa’s practice helps us to destroy ignorance and to develop wisdom overcoming our anger and suffering . Awesome Kalarupa manifested in multiple forms to help sentient beings who personifies enlightenment by the conquest of anger. Kalarupa also regard as one of the three main Dharma protectors of the Gelugpa is extremely fierce and ugly, and tames all kinds of spiritual ugliness. The fierceness of his iconography teaches us to remind ourselves that all the causes and effects of anger arising from ignorance are dreadful and distorted.

    Nepal is a very spiritual country, having a huge Dorje Shugden mural in Kathmandu, is indeed a big achievement for Kechara. Located on Charkhal Road in Dilli Bazaar, the mural can be found midway between our two Dorje Shugden chapels which are in Putalisadak and Chabahil. It is also very close to one of Kathmandu’s largest shopping malls. Many locals , tourist will be able to connect them to a powerful deity that is so closely associated with their culture. Well the mural not only beautiful but also full of symbolism and everyone merely by seeing it is blessed. Thanks to those talented artists and generous sponsors making it a success.

    All the art of living lies in a fine mingling of letting go and holding on. Letting go helps us to live in a more peaceful state of mind and helps restore our balance. A reminder for us all to go of attachment and meditating on impermanence and emptiness. We are to relinquish the domination of our ego and its habits to transform ourselves. A great reminder not to waste our previous life.
    Quoted Ceasing to do evil, Cultivating the good, Purifying the heart .

    We are members of the Buddhist Temple in Taman Desa Jaya, Kepong, Kuala Lumpur and we have been issued membership by the president (DATUK YIP KUM FOOK), we are very sad because we are the foundation of this Temple

    Now we can know who is always messing with people, and he always cheats money and women, he even uses Buddhism to find money.

    Also, need to be careful with his brother-in-law (Simon Low Kok Meng) because he is a spy (CID) for DATUK YIP KUM FOOK and we will write some letters to AGONG SULTAN IBRAHIM IBN ALMARHUM SULTAN ISKANDAR as soon as possible.

    The matriarchal cultures of the grandmothers have specific symbolism of animism shamanism, such as the horse, especially the blue horse, and the deer. These are two main symbols of a shaman woman and you can find them in many cultural folk lore, especially the Russian, Slavic, Siberian, Nordic, Finland, and Norway. It’s nice to see the Matriarchal Shaman Animism diety represented in Chinese.

    An inspiring act of a selfless Lama feeding strays whether its night or day. Truly an example for us all to feed those lonely strays . Yes I do agree compassion starts with feeding strays. Reading this blog again to refresh myself to do more. Strays animals generally lead a life of poor welfare on the street. Feeding strays is a compassionate act.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Anila for this sharing.

The Unknown

The Known and unknown are both feared,
Known is being comfortable and stagnant,
The unknown may be growth and opportunities,
One shall never know if one fears the unknown more than the known.
Who says the unknown would be worse than the known?
But then again, the unknown is sometimes worse than the known. In the end nothing is known unless we endeavour,
So go pursue all the way with the unknown,
because all unknown with familiarity becomes the known.
~Tsem Rinpoche

    What the meat industry figured out is that you don't need healthy animals to make a profit.
    Sick animals are more profitable... farms calculate how close to death they can keep animals without killing them. That's the business model. How quickly they can be made to grow, how tightly they can be packed, how much or how little can they eat, how sick they can get without dying... We live in a world in which it's conventional to treat an animal like a block of wood. ~ Jonathan Safran Foer
