"From the start from Dharmakaya Samantabhadra down to our root spiritual master, the bank of clouds of blessings is not faded,the incessant rain of the accomplishements (dngos grub) is not interrupted and the golden chain of lineage is certainly not stained by broken samaya lapses. Hence, for this reason alone, I have written this Dzogchen teaching transmission lineage." (extracted, pp.68, A Garland of Flowers: Q & A on the Highly Secret Clear Light Great Perfection / H.E.Kunde Rinpoche; translated by Geshe Lhakdor and Dr. Chok Tenzin. 2011).

May this publication preserving the oral transmission of Great Perfection in written form auspiciously, and ultimately benefit all sentient beings to attain Buddhahood.

与善知识对话(2) [Dialogue with my Spiritual Friend (2)]

与善知识对话 (2) - 生与死

有一日,弟子很感慨的问上师:
弟子问: 一个人应如何在无疾病折磨痛苦下往生(死亡)?
上师答:修大圆满法(密乘)!
弟子好奇,继续问上师:
弟子问:为什么上师推荐此法?
上师答:我的根本上师(大成就者)罗珠仁波切在无病无痛下宣佈一个星期后即将会离去(圆寂)。
弟子问:不可思议哦?
上师答:但是这一个星期里尊者每日继续讲经传授丛弟子大圆满法门,呼吁丛弟子有任何疑问迅问!
弟子问:尊者是不是普通人?
上师答:上师是大菩萨!
弟子问:弟子虽皈依佛教多年,修行也不精进。皈依上师才几年,可以学修大圆满法吗?
上师答:从修四加行开始,慢慢来。
弟子问:万一弟子没修好四加行就归天(死亡)?
上师答:不会下三(饿?)道啦,弟子放心!
哈哈,师徒同时大笑!

Dialogue with my Spiritual Friend (2): Living & Dying
One day the student felt the flimsy of life & death thus asked the Master:
Student: How could a person passed away (dying) without pain & sufferings?
Master: Practice Great Perfection method (Dzogchen, Vajrayana)?
Student: Why did Master recommend this practice?
Master: My Root Lama, Lodoe Gyatso while (physically) healthy announced His passing away after a week.
Student: Inconceivable?
Master: But within the one week, My Root Lama, Lodoe Gyatso taught Dharma & transmit the Great Perfection teachings everyday, urging us to ask questions.
Student: Your Master (Root Lama) was not common human being?
Master: Master is a great Bodhisattva!
Student: Though I had taken refuge to the Three Jewels many years, but have not practice much in mental cultivation. Moreover,  taking refuge with Master only a few years, can I learn to practice Great Perfection?
Master: You start by doing the Four Practices! Do it gradually.
Student: What if I died before I could complete the Four Practices (10 thousands each practice)?
Master: Won’t go to the Three Lower Realms, don’t worry!
