Dear Dharma friends,

I have the privilege and honour to follow His Holiness Gyalwa Karmapa and Shamarpa's guidance, and became a Buddhist monk in Bodhgaya in 2007. Subsequently I was given the task to set up and run the Bodhipath Buddhist center in Taichung in 2008, the aim of the center is to spread Buddha dharma teaching, learning the bodhisattva way by adopting the Bodhisattva's attitude, develop wisdom and practice to experience a clear and unobstructed nature of mind.

I have also started producing TV programs about Dharma teaching on Taiwan Dharma TV station since 2012, the topics cover teaching of Karma Kagyu lineage, Bodhicitta and other Dharma knowledge.


In 2013 I was assigned to be responsible for Dharma practice and teaching by Karmapa and Shamarpa in our new monastery in Hualian, Taiwan; from 2014 regular puja and events will be organised in both monasteries in Hualian and Taichung, including regular Nyongye practice (thousand arm chenrezig fasting program) White Tara Retreat as well as other retreat programs in the pipeline.


With pleasure I am producing these DVDs for distribution and sharing, I would appreciate any comment or feedback you might have for future improvement. In this trouble time we are most fortunate this auspicious teaching come to light, may the precious teachings radiate and flourish, may we bring forth our full effort together to work for a better future.

在秋吉寧瑪仁波切 Chokyi Niyma Rinpoche

寧瑪派、噶舉派的傳承持有人秋吉寧瑪仁波切,於Shamarpa往生週年法會特地撥冗蒞臨旭光寺,並且給我加持与指導!
他開示時一針見血,妙趣橫生,方便善巧,不留餘地!直指家中有個堂堂真佛,不需向外取求。我受益無窮。很感謝他!
Chokyi Niyma Rinpoche is a lineage holder of Nyingma and Kagyu lineage . In spite of his busy schedule, he came to Sharminub Monastery for the first anniversary of Shamarpa's nirvana, and gave me precious teachings.
His approach of "Hit the nail on the head' in a humorous way , and directly pointing to the essence of "Buddha-nature is inside ourselves , not to seek the light outside of own's life, but look within " has profound influence on me . Grateful for his great teachings .

龍樹菩薩-致親友書-第四集
http://youtu.be/gQSwvlKdy44
甚麼是「如來」?爲甚麼曰「如來」?
片中說,「如來」是證到沒生沒死涅槃寂靜果位的佛。沒有念頭的生、滅,但心還有。有「用」嗎?有!是「妙用」,是大圓的鏡的妙用。
這個大圓鏡就是禪宗經常說的「胡來胡現,漢來漢現」。我們的法身就是這樣的妙體,就有這樣的妙用。雖然法身無相,但它是真空妙用,能成一切事,能生萬法, 能應緣起用,能應緣接物,所以它又不離諸相。我們凡夫著相,不知相不異體,見有差異相的,是從妄心分別而有。所謂「千江有水千江月」,眾生的心水,分江、 湖、河、海,諸佛只有一個如月之體。
爲什麼曰「如來」?
我們現在都是凡夫,要來不能來,要去不能去,像一片樹葉隨著「業」風飄,從來不由自己。只有十方三世一切諸佛才能了脫生死,要來能來,要去能去,方可稱 「如來」。必須萬德俱備,才能稱「如來」。《佛說十號經》十方三世一切佛都是如來、應供、正等覺、明行足、善逝、世間解、無上士、調御丈夫、天人師、佛、 世尊。總的說來「如來」是說佛陀在如如不動的法身中,因悲憫救度眾生,應化而來,故名「如來」。




龍樹菩薩致親友書第 3 集

龍樹菩薩致親友書第 3 集
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAdNa0ddja0
片中提到唐代的丹霞天然禪師有一次路過京城的慧林寺,遇天大寒,取木佛燒火向。
院主訶曰:「何得燒我木佛?」
師(丹霞)以杖子撥灰曰:「吾燒取舍利。」
主曰:「木佛何有舍利?」
師曰:「既無舍利,更取兩尊燒。」

儘管我們懷疑它的歷史真實性,但是這個故事卻膾炙人口,也沒有人懷疑這個褻瀆佛陀的丹霞的精神成就。
很多的禪宗公案都會令我們摸不著頭腦,不是殺貓、斬蛇,就是一巴一巴掌的故事。不能理解公案的意義是因為我們一直被規定在邏輯、二元論的思維模式運作。
鈴木大拙一針見血的道出:
「禪自己也不想不合邏輯,它只是讓人明白,邏輯的一致性並非究竟。我們一直執著「是」與「非」的對立,當一切都上軌道時,「是」與「非」的知性窠臼還滿管 用,但一旦臨到終極的生命問題時(生死),知性就捉襟見肘了。當我們說「是」時,我們是在肯定,並因此限制了自己。當我們說「不是」時,我們是在否定,否 定是在排斥。排斥和限制,都是同一回事,都是在戕害靈魂。在排斥或限制裡,是不會有自由或和諧的。」
禪宗說的明心見性,給自己的框框鎖得死死的又怎能「明心見性」。
有一禪師曾說「向上一路,直踏毘盧頂上行;向下會取,只在兒孫腳底事。」

龍樹菩薩《致親友書》第二集,鵬措法師主講
從「生命意義在哪裏?」、
到「有認真的審視過自己學佛的動機嗎?」
到最後七覺支(又名七菩提分)的「擇法覺支」
這些看是簡單卻蘊含人生佛法的道理,放諸四海而皆准

The second episode of Nagarjuna's "Letter to a Friend"by Lama Phuntsok Dorje.
From question of " What is the true meaning of life ?"
To question of "Have you ever seriously looked at motive of why you are learning Buddhism?"
To "Choose Sleep Branch" of "Seven Consciousness Branch" (also named as Seven Bodhi Points)
It seems like straightforward and simple , but it is truly pearl of wisdom.

 Thaye Dorje, His Holiness the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa

To the people of Nepal
I am so very sorry to learn about the second major earthquake to strike your country, in just a matter of weeks.
We felt the tremors today even here at KIBI in New Delhi, and I can only try to imagine what it must have been like, what it is like, for all of you in Nepal.
I am proud of all of you for the strength and resilience you have shown over these past few weeks, and I am confident that you will continue to find similar strength and courage, drawing from your own inner qualities, as well as those of your loved ones.
Please know that my prayers are with you, now and always, and that we are never separate.
Thaye Dorje, His Holiness the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa

致尼泊爾人民
當我得悉你們國家在幾週內受到第二次大地震襲擊,我感到非常難過。
今天甚至在這裡新德里KIBI,我們也感到震顫。我只能試著去想像這種震撼對在尼泊爾的你們究竟是怎樣的。
我為你過去幾個星期所表顯的堅毅和韌力感到驕傲,我相信你會繼續尋找到類似的力量和勇氣,從你自己內在的本質,以及你的親人。
請知道我的祈禱會現在和永遠與你一起,我們不會分開。
第十七世噶瑪巴泰耶多傑
