梦境

A Dream

在梦中，我来到了以前放牧的加嘎地方，与来自印度的观世音菩萨的化身共度了七昼夜的美好时光。在快乐的短暂时日里，我每天恭敬承侍，恒常不离左右。

In my dream, I was back in the Jiagar land of my old herding days. For seven wonderful days and nights, I was in the presence of a great master, the emanation of Avalokitesvara from India. In this short happy moment, I served the master with reverence, always staying right next to him.

他穿着平常的衣服，举手投足都显得那么和蔼可亲，无一不显露出他是真正的善知识，使我时时刻刻都沉浸在无法言表的幸福之中。

He was wearing his regular outfit; every gesture of his was imbued with kindness and warmth, revealing fully his quality as an authentic spiritual friend. I couldn’t but feel drenched in wordless happiness at every moment.

七天的时光眨眼即逝。

Seven days went by in a blink.

最后一天，他告诉我说要留下一些教言给我。我欣喜若狂，本来一直盼望有此幸运，但一来觉得自己福德浅薄，二来也怕沾染世间八法的垢障，所以一直未敢祈请。能够如愿以偿，岂不让我喜出望外？

On the last day, he told me he would like to leave me a few teachings. I was beyond elated. I had been secretly hoping for such good luck but was too afraid to ask, knowing well my lack of merit and the possible sullying by my eight worldly stains. Now that my wish would be granted, how could I not be overjoyed?

我取出一只蓝色的笔，恭敬呈上，只见他在信笺上写道：“见解以中观为根本，行为以利他为依托……”将一切教法提纲挈领，归纳为两页半的文字。前面写得很潦草，后面逐渐工整，书写完毕后交与我并让我顶礼，他将经书放在我头顶，我祈求念经加持，他念诵了一段《窍诀宝藏论》中的发愿词：“愿我乃至生生世世中，获得具足七德之善趣；愿我出生立即遇正法，具有如理修持之自由；愿我……”一开始，声音非常洪亮清晰，后面声音逐渐消失，显得隐隐约约。当时的场景历历在目，如同身受。我记得当我目光下垂时，很清楚地看见他的红色皮鞋发出柔和的光，显得很美。

I handed the master humbly a blue pen and saw him writing on the pad: “Build your view on Madhyamaka, direct your activities to benefiting others…” He summed up the most essential points of all the doctrines in two and a half pages. He wrote at first with scribbles and then more neatly. After finishing, he handed it to me and let me pay homage to it. When he placed the scriptures on my head, I besought his blessings, and he recited the aspiration prayer in The Precious Treasury of Pith Instructions: “In all my lives, may I be born in higher realms and possess the seven noble qualities. May I encounter the Dharma the moment I am born. May I enjoy the freedom to practice the authentic Dharma. May I…” His voice was sonorous and clear in the beginning, and then grew faint and indistinct. Even now the surroundings in the dream remain vivid in my mind, as fresh as I am still experiencing it. I remember when I bowed down, my downcast eyes met the soft glow from his reddish-brown shoes, which was beautiful to behold.

巧合的是，第二天，谢布堪布在帮我收拾屋子时找到了已经丢失很久，他以前送我的一件礼物。

Fortuitously, the next day when Khenpo Shebul was helping me straighten up my place, he found a gift given to me by the master that had long been lost.

以上所说，只是为了与人分享快乐，决非妄语，更不是为了炫耀，信不信随你。

I have told this story with the only intention of sharing my happiness. I am only speaking the truth, without the slightest desire to brag. Please take it for what it is worth.
