一尊修法 林鈺堂 簡繁轉換 - 繁體 弟子敬行請我寫〈古魯古里法門之修法〉,我答以持佛母咒及修〈證契儀軌〉即可。順此因緣於此補述專修一尊之要項。 吾人時間及精力皆極有限,因此極宜「一門深入」,藉熟習之功力,易達證德。 吾人我執深重,因此密法令修本尊,隨順一般執取之習氣,而以本尊之觀想純熟漸漸取代俗人之我執。 基本上還是要先明了空性與緣起之意義,並且發起純真的菩提願心,立志投入佛法的修持及弘揚,以助一切眾生早日成佛。 過著修行的生活才有可能漸忘原先的私人,而不斷認定已成本尊,使一切想法、言行皆合於覺道之行持。 安設尊像,供奉、禮拜,以令與本尊之關係,日趨密切。 從學此法門之老修行或證達者,以領加持。 如此修習,庶幾有成;有志者勉哉!
Yidam Practice Yutang Lin Disciple Jing Xing asked me to write an article on "How to Practice in the Dharma Gate of Kurukulla." I replied, saying that it is enough to repeat Kurukulla's Heart Mantra and practice according to the Kurukulla Unification Sadhana. In association with this request and response, I am setting out below the key points in Yidam practices. Our time and energies are both very limited; therefore, it is most appropriate for us to adopt one particular Dharma practice and then delve into it. Thus, through the strength of familiarity, it would be easier to attain realizations. Our habitual grasping to self-centeredness is heavy and deep; therefore, Tantra teaches Yidam practice. Fundamentally, we still need, first of all, to comprehend the meaning of Blank Essence and Causal Origination, and to develop genuine Bodhi aspiration that dedicates oneself to the practice and propagation of the Dharma so as to help all sentient beings to attain full enlightenment sooner. Only by living a life in accordance with Dharma and its practices can one gradually forget the previous self-centered personality, and constantly sustain the identification with the Yidam so as to render all thoughts, speeches and activities in accord with enlightened attitudes. Set up Yidam's image or statue, and make offerings and prostrations to the Yidam. Thus one's relationships with the Yidam will become more and more intimate day by day. Print Yidam's images, mantra wheel, Sadhanas, etc., for free distribution. Thus one's causal connections with this particular Dharma Gate will daily become deeper and closer. Follow senior or realized practitioners of the particular Dharma Gate to receive their teachings and blessings through attending them in daily life. If one practices as mentioned above, then one will have a better opportunity to attain realization. May those dedicate themselves to Yidam practices take heed and strive accordingly!
