Weapons – Dorje & Ghanta

Terjemahan Indonesia: Senjata-Senjata - Dorje & Ghanta

A master said that she was reminded one night by some spirits to bring the Dorje & Ghanta on her trip to cruise a lake .

She brought along these weapons and used them to cleanse; bless and deliver the sea spirits.

A week later, all the fishes died in that lake.

It seems the fishes' spirits told her that they are tired of reincarnating as fishes repeatedly!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My humble opinion:-

These weapons are not needed physically, as we can use hand mudra to replace them effectively.

Using the physical forms only appease the sentient attachment to Form.

Anyway, the respective visualisation is required whether with the hand mudra or the physical weapons.

We in Tantrayana, really do not need to cart any weapons around with us.

Guru can read the Geomancy of a place without any physical equipment at all.

He can inaugurate an altar just by visualization, mudra and mantra too.

:)

Free yourself from Forms please.

Why did the fishes keep staying in the Reincarnation Cycle in the first place?

The fishes died a week later, but did they truly break free from Samsara?

The Karmic Influences that resulted in Samsaric cycles were ignored?

Readers, please make your own deductions.



Notes :

Samsara (Tib: ‘khor ba; Skrt: samsara)

The realm of suffering that arises from the occluded, dualistic mind, where all entities are impermanent, lack inherent existence, and where all sentient beings are subject to suffering. Samsara includes the six realms of cyclic existence, but more broadly refers to the characteristic mode of existence of sentient beings who suffer through being trapped in the delusions of ignorance and duality. Samsara ends when a being attains full liberation from ignorance, nirvana.

Commonly referred to as “the six realms” or “six lokas.” The six realms refer to six classes of beings: gods, demi-gods, humans, animals, hungry-ghosts, and hell-beings. Beings in the six realms are subject to suffering. They are literal realms, in which beings take birth, and also broad experiential and affective bands of potential experience that shape and limit experience even in our current life.
