前往萨甘丹寺做供养
(詹杜固仁波切撰写)
2013年8月间,克切拉董事会给我供养了800尊白度母佛像,祈愿我健康长寿。来自弟子们如此美好及虔诚的供养让我非常感动,因为我明白要一次准备尊佛像一定是件不容易的任务。更值得一提的是,所有佛像皆由克切拉本身的画家负责彩绘,佛像更是克切拉本身负责铸制的!因此,我接受了这份供养,并告诉我其中一位助理明贵说,将这佛像收藏在拉章或克切拉天堂,还不如供养给萨甘丹寺的僧侣,更能利益他人。
几个月前,明贵将这些佛像安全运往印度的同时,安排了29名学生前往萨甘丹寺朝圣,从而代表我参与供养佛像仪式。明贵是个非常棒和真诚的人,她不求回报地辛勤工作,是个值得信赖的人。起初,我还在想为何明贵要赶在2014年10月供养这些佛像。结果,她告诉我说,要赶在我49岁的障碍年前做供养…….她希望透过做出这些供养,协助消除我健康长寿的障碍……多贴心和吉利的心思啊。
2014年10月初,明贵和她的五人团队遂带领29人朝圣团飞往印度到寺院供养佛像。印度此行有许多人首次拜访寺院,我很高兴他们有此功德参与此朝圣团,并会见了许多高僧、老僧人和神圣的僧人……他们之所以神圣,是因为过去六七十年来纯净地持守了本身的戒誓。此行,我们朝圣团成员做了其他许多善行,包括会面许多高僧及给他们做供养。我下次会针对此撰写一篇相关文章。我过去七年来都给这所寺院、其他寺院和其他大型拉章做供养。在供养萨甘丹寺前,我在过去近27年来都一直支持和捐助甘丹寺。我几乎认识寺院里所有的资历深的僧人,我们彼此相识超过27年,他们都是我的朋友。你不会忘记自己的朋友,即便你有上百位朋友。这上百名朋友是我的同修兄弟。我非常想念他们。在甘丹寺期间,我跟他们一起出席了许多的活动。在我被派遣来马来西亚传法前,在甘丹寺的我们都很年轻。许多资历深的僧人朋友给我传达了亲切的问候。我过去七年来给萨甘丹寺做了不少捐赠。不管别人的看法如何,对我而言,他们是僧侣,他们就应该获得我们的支持。
以下是此次朝圣之旅的简短重要事项的记录——白度母像、僧袍、书籍、食物的供养,以及朝圣者向僧人做供养的美丽相片。如果你没有朝圣的经验,你可以欣赏这些相片,即便是你去过朝圣,为之随喜,在心里祈愿自己将有足够的福德资粮,在不久的将来也能去朝圣。

前往萨甘丹寺做供养
[由博客队伍撰写 ]
佛教所有流派都非常提倡供养寺院与僧众这项善行。我们可以每天进行的善行包括了给僧伽供养食物,这是泰国小乘在家人普遍的供僧方式;较大规模的善行则包括了建造礼拜用佛殿、寺院建筑、给寺院造佛像和供养僧袍。有鉴于明瞭这个方式所能累积的无量功德,克切拉董事会计划每隔几年给寺院进行一次大规模的供养。这除了能将功德回向给我们的精神导师尊贵的詹杜固仁波切的健康长寿,它也能支援寺院的僧人。
2014年10月11日,由35人组成寺院朝圣团,在四天的朝圣行程中,给甘丹寺的僧伽进行了完整的供养。在由早晨六时至中午12时的早晨法会中,寺院僧人进行了尊胜佛母长寿法会,并把功德回向给尊贵的詹杜固仁波切,祈愿他健康和长寿。我们一共准备为寺院的800名僧人准备了800份供养。每份供养计有一张尊贵的詹杜固仁波切的圣像、8寸彩绘了金脸的白度母佛像、一本佛书、一套僧袍、一个红包,以及缝制僧袍的裁缝费。此外,朝圣团员也赞助了寺院所有僧人当天的早餐。我们在网上订购了漫画,再运到寺院做供养。非常幸运的是,该亲切友善的制作团体能及时完成漫画。它是关于一位殊胜护法历史的漫画,并且由一个网上团体所制作。
对许多朝圣成员而言,这是他们首次前往像寺院这样的胜地朝圣。整个朝圣旅程因为他们能给僧伽做广大供养,而显得“非常特别”。这是一个珍贵又难得的累积无量功德的机缘。布施也能帮助我们培养慷慨之心,而它是对治导致我们在娑婆世界沉沦的导因——吝啬和执着的良药。我们希望透过这些善行,能给寺院的弘法事业增长造下善因,僧伽获得照顾,高僧大德继续弘法利生。我们祈愿尊贵的詹杜固仁波切健康长寿,其佛法心愿皆一一实现。
以下是供养仪时式摄下的一些照片。

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.

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.

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 asssistants 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.

此博文清楚的显示上师尊贵的詹杜固仁波切无时无刻都是为他人着想。因为,仁波切接受弟子们虔诚的供养的同时也吩咐助理安排所有一切,并将此供养给萨甘丹寺的僧侣,利益更多人。值得一提的是800尊白度母佛像皆由克切拉本身负责铸制和画家负责彩绘。
此项目真的利益很多人例如从筹款开始、佛像的制造过程、从网上订购殊胜护法历史的漫画,携带所有殊胜的供养及带领29人朝圣团飞往印度到寺院供养佛像等等,每个人曾帮助完成此项目无论是金钱或个人时间,都会让他们培养慷慨之心以对治其吝啬与执着,还有累积许多功德。
感谢仁波切的分享。在此祈愿上师尊贵的詹杜固仁波切法体安康、常住在世及常转法轮。祈愿所有佛教寺院或僧伽团弘法事业增长,还有所有高僧大德与僧人纯净地持守戒誓,继续利益众生。
感恩仁波切分享一班克切拉董事与弟子们到萨甘丹寺做供养的文章!
法喜充满 !一班同修们有此机缘与功德,可以到其中一个有供养多杰雄登护法的萨甘丹寺做供养与朝圣。感恩仁波切的带领与教导,让大家拥有此机会累积大量的功德,净化业障。
因为如果没有仁波切的教导与带领,累积功德和净化业障对我来说,只是会在口头上说说而已,不会实践在我生活里,如在身语意的戒律等等。再次感恩一路来无私付出的教导,鼓励和提醒。

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!

I hope Tibetan leadership will stop contradicting itself and discriminating based on faith, for the benefit of Tibetan people.
《俱舍论》云:“若能一昼夜持不杀戒,于未来生,决定不逢刀兵灾;若能以一粒诃子,以殷净心奉施僧众,于当来世,决定不逢疾疫灾;若以一抟之食,起殷净心奉施僧众,于当来世,决定不逢饥馑灾。”
僧宝是一切世间供养、布施,修福的无上福田。供僧是一种清净的供养,让众生当下远离烦恼,除心束缚,得清净心。
通过供养食物给在修行的僧人,让我们能够学习布施及灭除悭贪,执著。
供僧是自利利他的菩萨行。在家信众供养出家人,让他们没有物资的缺乏,而能积极弘法利生,将佛法遍布世间,居士于此因缘供僧,可谓护法护教的菩萨行。
佛教是完全依靠清净僧伽住持,世间若无僧众,佛陀的无垢教法就会因此灭亡,所以说:“佛法全赖僧众弘传。”为了续佛慧命,发扬佛教,所以我们要竭力以四事(饮食、衣服、卧具、医药)供养僧众,护持佛法僧三宝。
我个人非常喜欢,来自詹杜固仁波切的一段话:
站在我的角度,我从嘉瓦仁波切那里接受教诲,我对他仍然有敬意,也将他视为我的上师之一。对一些没有从嘉瓦仁波切那里接受教诲的人而言,情况或许不是如此。无论如何我的做法还是必须对他有持敬意的。即使我没有从嘉瓦仁波切那里接受教诲,我仍然会采取对他保持敬意的做法。嘉瓦仁波切抨击多杰雄登护法修持的劝告伤害了很多人,事实上是伤害了千万人。这样的抨击引起了纷乱、隔离及痛苦。嘉瓦仁波切所教授的一切都关乎慈悲、容忍及和谐,雄登修持者值得这些美好。因此我恭敬地向至尊嘉瓦仁波切跪拜,请求他派遣他的大臣们会见雄登团体的领袖以解决此事。我以最虔敬地心说出这一切。作为藏人的一份子,我也希望并祝愿嘉瓦仁波切安好。祈愿嘉瓦仁波切长寿健康。詹杜固仁波切敬上。
