有沒有傳承? Lost Lineage Transmission or Not?

English translation by Lotuschef



最近有幾批人,天天上山問我,我們有沒有喪失『傳承』?
Recently, there are few groups of people that came up to mountain (Caotun temple is on Tiger Mountain), have we lost [Lineage transmission]?

問的人甚多,有比丘比丘尼,有很多在家居士,有時三、兩位,有時十多位,更多的是,一次來三十多位,同一個問題:
『我們有沒有喪失傳承?』
Those asking are quite alot, consisting or monks, nuns, lay students, sometimes 3 or 2 or more than 10, or even more, once more than 30 persons, same question: 
Have we lost [Lineage transmission]?

原因是:
他們都依止一位上師,佩帶了上師画的符令,受上師的加持,也佩帶了一種特殊的團體供奉之物。
The reason:
They took refuge with a master, wear talismans drawn by this master, getting empowerment from this master, also wear one kind of special group offering material.

我聽了,沉默不語。
Upon hearing these, I maintain silence.

問:『我們須要盧師尊的傳承!』
Ask: We need GM Lu's lineage transmission!

也有人直接說:『請盧師尊寫手諭,說我們有傳承!』
Some said straight out: GM Lu, Please write Instruction, saying we have lineage transmission!

我本來想寫手諭給他們,但,後來想一想,覺得不妥當。
Originally, I thought to write for them, BUT, upon further thought, felt that is inappropriate.

為什麼不妥當?Why inappropriate?

原來『有傳承』或『沒有傳承』,行者應該知道,不應該問我。
Originally, Have Lineage Transmission or not, the cultivator should know himself/herself, should not ask me.

我說:I say:
恭敬自己皈依的上師,就有傳承。
不恭敬自己皈依的上師,就沒有傳承。
Respect and honor one's refuge guru, that is have lineage transmission.
Don'e respect and honor then don't have.
依止我的,就有傳承。
Refuge with me, then have lineage transmission.
離開我的,必失傳承。
Leave me, then don't have lineage transmission.

又:AND:
學佛的人要守戒律,守了戒律,不破三昧耶,就有傳承。
如果不守戒律,破三昧耶,當然失去了傳承,如斷線的風箏。
Buddha's students must abide disciplines, do not breach Samaya, then have lineage transmission.
If do not abide disciplines and breach Samaya, of course lost lineage transmission, like a kite with a broken string.

又:And:
你依止了根本上師盧師尊,又跑去依止其他上師,同門與同門之間,互為師徒,這一定會喪失了傳承。
如果只是一皈依,那就不會喪失傳承。
You take refuge with GM Lu, and also ran to take refuge with other masters, between fellow students, becoming guru & students, this sure lost lineage transmission.
If only one refuge, then won't lost lineage transmission.

又:And:
如果你一日三時,早、午、晚,憶念根本上師,不會喪失傳承。
如果你根本不憶念根本上師,就一定沒有傳承了。
If you always remember & think of your Root Guru, 3 times daily - morning noon night, won't lost lineage transmission.
If you have never done so, of course don't have lineage transmission.
<<part of lyrics I wrote in dedication to GM Lu-- 时时惦记着您 - thinking fondly of you all the time>>

又:And:
你每天修根本上師傳承下來的佛法,只要每日一修,你是有傳承的。
若,你根本不修法,自然喪失傳承。
You cultivate Buddha dharma transmitted by Root Guru, only need to cultivate once a day, you do have lineage transmission.
If you do not cultivate at all, naturally lost lineage transmission.

又:And:
你退了道心,就退了傳承。
道心不退,傳承永在。
You retracted from Boddhi-path heart, then retracted lineage transmission.
Boddhi-path heart not retracted, Lineage transmission exist forever.

又:And:
在背後講根本上師的是非,早已喪失傳承了。
Gossiping behind Root guru, already lost lineage transmission.

誹謗佛。Slander Buddha.
誹謗法。Slander dharma.
誹謗僧。Slander Sangha.
皆喪失了傳承。All lost lineage transmission.
(這是『是非人』、『八卦人』、『妄語人』、犯口業的)
This is [gossiper], [busybody], [liars], breach speech karma.

又:And:
根本未相應,自稱已相應,隨隨便便給大眾灌頂。
Never achieved yogic union, self claimed have, giving abhiseka to great public any old how.
這叫灌信不具,是沒有傳承的。
This abhiseka not credible, do not have lineage transmission.
跟隨者。Followers.
信仰者。Believers.
供養者。Offerers.
皆失傳承。All lost lineage transmission.

又:用鬼法者,已失傳承。自稱大神通(大鬼通),已失傳承。
And: Those Using Ghost methods, already lost Lineage transmission. 
Self proclaimed as Great transcendental ability (Great ghost ability), already lost Lineage transmission.

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

Hahaha! 
GM Lu dealt with this question in a recent speech & HIS reply: You know yourself, why ask me?

A VM said after homa event to attendees: For those that think you do not need blessings from me, then no need to stand in line.

Hahaha! 
His words were directed at me!
I was sitting where I have been during the homa and also didn't stand in line for blessing from him for past events.

Yes! I do not line up or walk pass like fellow attendees for blessing or abhiseka from other masters, be they from TBS or other schools.

I believe only in GM Lu and blessing or abhiseka only from him and through him, Divine Blessing & abhiseka! 

Your safest choice: Only listen to One & Only Root Guru and don't get side-tracked by anyone else and go astray!
