【  精進 ‧清淨 ‧燃起五十萬盞 希望 與 光明  】

~~~2009年印度敏卓林結夏安居 45天 ‧

                                   五十萬盞明燈燈供大法會~~

佛陀曾說：「雨季實非宜於遠行的好時機。於此季節，比丘們宜聚集一處好好修行。在這樣一個地方，有助於避免與外界接觸而染上疾患，並可避免踩及被雨水沖刷到地面的螻蟻昆蟲。從現在開始，我希望比丘們能夠在雨季開始時回到一個共同修行的地方。我們可以呼籲當地住戶在這三個月期間供養食水；居士們亦可於此期間聆聽比丘們的開示。」

    以此因緣，結夏安居故而傳衍至今。此段期間，出家眾不出外托缽，只聚於某處修行；在家居士則提供出家眾一切膳食與所需。爾後，此一傳統亦如斯延續至今，未曾改變。

於敏卓林，結夏安居（Yarne）為期一個半月，從藏曆 六月中進行至七月底。安居一切規定皆依照佛陀戒律進行，比丘們必需遵守戒律，並於此段期間致力禪修。而於此段期間的每壹日，堪布和法師亦例行開示，所有僧眾每日都必需誦戒，同時也廣大供養酥油明燈和舉行法會。直到結夏安居的最後一天，也就是藏曆 七月卅 的傍晚，由選定的僧侶們公開為大眾作佛法開示。照常規，安居之後，比丘一般會有三至五天的假期。  

因此，每年於此時刻，所有的弟子都會遠離喧囂的日常生活，重新回到佛陀修行的理想環境中。這有助於提醒僧眾們：如何自在安住於簡單安詳的生活，以及珍惜自我的心靈成長。我們(僧人)需要時間來做更深入的自我探究，以便超越個人的困難和面對世俗社會的困難。在這一個半月的結夏安居期間，意味著我們有許多自我反省、以及體驗同體大悲的時刻。 

感謝十方法友過去這幾年的護持，以及您永續的支持。儘管這些年來經濟低靡，您還是堅持您的佈施。今年我們仍期盼於結夏安居期間供養五十萬盞明燈，倘若能得致足夠的佈施，各位的奉獻將作為敏卓林佛學院擴建僧舍之用，以解決學舍不足之困窘。

由於此際，敏卓林佛學院之學僧人數已增加許多，但能夠提供的住所卻極其有限。在這裡，三、四個僧人蟄居於斗室，少數喇嘛更被迫居於水塔圍牆之室；於此水塔斗室，對僧眾之生活、衛生條件與學習上產生了極大的不便，因此我們希望今年能夠修建僧舍，以改善學僧的居住環境，解除僧眾衛生、學習和生活上的困頓。   ( http://tw.myblog.yahoo.com/theeasternsun-khenchen/article?mid=2236&prev=-1&next=22350 )

懇請十方踴躍護持，不管您對結夏安居有多少的奉獻，願您所有的淨心之願得以滿足；願您對結夏安居的慈悲和關切為您帶來功德與福報。

衷心感恩大家！

 2009 summer retreat

Buddha once said: “Monsoon season is not a good time for travel. Bhikkhus need a place to study and practice together during the rains. Having a place like this will help the community avoid illness from exposure to elements and avoid stepping on worms and insects that are washed up on the ground during the rain. From now on, I would like the bhikkhus to return to a common place at the beginning of every rainy season. We can ask lay disciples of the area to offer food and drink during the three months of retreat. The lay disciples will also benefit from the teachings offered by the bhikkhus.” Thus, the tradition of the rainy season retreat began.

The summer Retreat originated at the time of Buddha when, during the three-month monsoon period, all the disciples would reassemble to practice with Shakyamuni, away from the preoccupations and agitation of the world. During that time, monks would not go out for alms but gathered in a place and practice. The lay people would provide food and everything for the monks. Since then, the tradition still follows the same as in the past.

Here in Mindrolling, summer retreat (Yarne) starts from the 15th day of the 6th lunar month to the 30th day of the 7th lunar month, which last for one and a half months. The retreat is held in accordance with the instructions of the Buddha spelled in the Vinaya directing all monks to observe certain restrictions and engage themselves in meditation and practices for the period. Khenpos and Lonpons gave teachings each day and ‘Sojong' or confessions are offered by the sangha during the retreat. Many butter lamps are offered and pujas are done during the retreat. In the evening of the 30th, the last day of the retreat, selected monks give teachings and expound the Dharma to the community. The retreat is usually followed by a 3-5 day holiday break for the monks.

So, every year, all disciples can withdraw from the hustle and bustle of their everyday life and rediscover the ideal conditions for practicing the Buddha-Way together. This reminds us of how we can live and enjoy simple and peaceful life and nurture our own spiritual growth. We take time to look deeply in order to transform both our individual difficulties and the difficulties we faced in our society. During this one and half month retreat, is a lot of time for reflecting oneself and sharing the sameness with others too.

Thanks for the donation done by everyone of you as well as your continuous support since the past few years. Despite the economic downturn and hardships of life, you still continue to contribute as done in the past. This year, we hope to offer five hundred thousand butter lamps during the retreat. Should we have surplus donations, then such donations shall be used for the expansion of Shedra rooms. Such decision is made because we have many new students this year, but we are unable to provide them with a room. In a small room just enough for 3 to 4 monks, few monks have to stay under the water tank. It is very hard for the monks to live and study in that small room. Therefore, we are hoping that we could build more new rooms this year, so that the conditions of living do not interfere in their studies, hygiene and well beings.   

Here, we earnestly appeal for your enthusiast support. With any dedication made for this retreat, may all your wishes be fulfilled. May all your kindness and thoughtfulness for this summer retreat brings you merits.

  Thank you very much indeed!
