Only Ye Feng through the long corridor. Blowing deities face. Many stories in the wind roaring past. On this night, let's Chen Chin-shih, Hear the Wind Sing --
Chapter one: the hard times wood of the General Assembly
The hard times wood of the General Assembly is the prayer of the General Assembly in Lhasa, also known as the Wishing Dafa will Lhasa. Will normally be held in the possession of Year. The monks chanting prayers by the three temples, pray this year's lucky. 15 century, the Yellow Sect open cases Tsongkhapa Master in order to expand the impact of this camp, collect alms alms, antique Indian city law would only Jetavana in the form of the Jokhang Temple held the first Buddhist scriptures speak of, hair Dafa would be willing to pray, saying that the "Yellow Sect of the fundamental Dojo." That was in 1409, Ming Yongle period, when Tsongkhapa 53-year-old. Since then, this law will always be inherited, in the hard times wood during the session, will be held at all major temples Sunning of the Buddha sorcerer's dance, art exhibitions and other large events butter.
From being the beginning of four, three major monasteries in Lhasa monks began to focus on holding the hard times wood prayer of the General Assembly. According to the Dalai Lama V provides that, in the hard times wood during the General Assembly (from to flood the temple to on the 25th), the regime in Lhasa by the municipal government handed over to the Drepung monks of the iron bar. During this period, iron bars, you can easily punish people Lama. Beginning on the 3rd night, iron bars, to report to the Dalai Lama, and then lived in Lhasa before the takeover.
The hard times wood of the General Assembly was held in the Great Temple recruit every day, six meetings, the morning will be called Shaw, Shaw Cable will be followed, at noon in the large strokes Temple Place the right song song, called dry wooden , dry wooden followed by the public and then, the public is followed by the hard times wood, wood followed by the public plus the hard times. The Dalai Lama is not Chikamasa before the wood of the General Assembly can not participate in the hard times. Chikamasa later, as long as it was to invite the Dalai Lama would be able to attend. And fifteenth of the day, to personally Song song at the participating monks preaching to the three temples are saying.
Fifteenth of the evening, in the Great Temple of the surrounding eight strokes Gallery Seoul street, holding butter lamps exhibition. Butter lamps in the lamp back in the form of a wooden set, wooden butter mold with a variety of mountains and rivers on the characters Tatsuhebi animal. In the lighthouse in front of a number of butter lamps lit. Dalai Lama is not Chikamasa ago, can not come out Guandeng. From the Chikamasa the year since the hard times if the wood to participate in the General Assembly, 15 out of Guandeng at first by the Dalai Lama, then king of the underworld, and then after that Kalon and nobles, and finally the monks people, give the city the night binge, often downtown to dawn.
Butter butter lamps on the festival, most of the system made by the temple monks. They started this started preparations for the first month. The colors crush ore, and butter, barley noodles kneaded together, made of multiple colored dough, then shape into skilled animals, flowers, statues and so on. Such skill and Beijing, as some dough figurines.
The first month on the 23rd, the hard times wood finish of the General Assembly, held the ceremony to send dead God, Buddhist monks and nuns carrying the corpse of God to the suburbs to incineration, a year that can avoid disaster.
February 19 to 30, but also at the hard times in the Great Temple Wood bills the General Assembly, participated in the three major monasteries with 3000 monks, the Tibetan name is wrong, Han Chinese commonly known as "little strokes." Has finished in the wrong this day, the Potala Palace from the roof hung a large Buddha statues, about three hundred feet, from the roof to the foot of a hill, that the "Sunning of the Buddha." The general will also be held at the small temple Sunning of the Buddha. In perfect sunny weather, the temple would remove the temple's collection Caixiu Buddha to show the Buddha in the temple sun sets, hillsides, or Ju-on. Temple monks in chronological order according to the status of the identity into the hands of the hada dedicated Buddha, while Buddhism prayer. Tens of thousands of people facing the enormous Buddha statues paying homage to the air filled with the aroma simmering Sang, Tibetan Buddhist group in a dance of worship under the jump.
Sorcerer's dance in general, held December 29 by the monks to wear flowers Technicolor Dreamcoat, wearing a variety of mask (with skeletons, Ngau Tau, deer, devil masks, etc.), accompanied by a trombone, drums and other music bowl. India introduced Buddhism in Tibet, after the eighth century, and the local Bon dance witch primitive religion combine to produce a kind of exorcism and the town of evil, prayer auspicious for the subject of religious dance. The earliest sorcerer's dance in the Samye Monastery (Gonggar County) ground-breaking ceremony performed.
Chapter 2, the long road reincarnation
The Buddha said that all creatures are equal, everyone has the Buddha-nature, which gives everyone a way out. As long as the self-cultivation through the Lei Shi finally able to get quite work permit. Tibetans believe that reincarnation, I believe that this life is the afterlife Jifu, this conviction to support them in the harsh natural environment of hard to survive and multiply and prosperous. Because life for them is concerned, is nothing more than a long continuous cycle, and the pursuit of sophistication of the process which has been short. No one will cry for their loved ones died while. In Tianzang Tai, the son picked up the mother's bones, mix Ci rake thrown vulture. They can start a cycle, they do celebrate. Such a detached view of the matter.
Each one temple in Tibet has its own reincarnation of living Buddhas.
Monasteries in Tibet is actually ruled by the right agency to act, so also among the monks and secular, have a very complicated power struggle. Losing ground in the struggle of the Temple, the most severe penalty is the reincarnation of Living Buddhas against Temple. 14 Dalai Lama Chikamasa ago by thermal vibration of the Living Buddha Temple Photo by government to act. The thermal vibration Khutuktu was pro-British victims of the Tibetan aristocrats. After his death, the Tibetan nobility, said the oracle, to prohibit Reting Khutuktu reincarnation.
Of science can not explain the soul, different world, and I do not have contact with, and no comment. I think only from a historical perspective, to look at the reincarnation of authenticity. Talk about some small stories, please judge for themselves bar.
V Dalai Lama is a great ruler and Buddhist scholar. He Chikamasa when he traveled to Beijing and see the emperor. So far Beijing also has a presence, for he built huangsi above has a complete murals, describing the scene when two people meet, Shunzhi home right, the Dalai Lama left home, the two heads have a halo, the Dalai Lama wearing a Yellow Sect standard rule of yellow pointed hat. Emperor bestowed on the Dalai Lama golden seal, golden books, seal the Dalai Lama as "Western Paradise Great Benevolent Self-Buddhacarita collar world to teach general release red tile La shocked the Dalai Lama." Since then, the "Dalai Lama" The titles and the Dalai Lama on Tibet's political status was officially confirmed on down. So, after the Dalai Lama's reincarnation of each world, have recognized the need to be canonized by the Qing government.
V Dalai Lama in his later years to concentrate on the book, do not ask the Chief. Management from the first bar (regent) sole agent. 1682 V Dalai Lama passed away in the Potala Palace. First Basang knot Ka wrong "For special state affairs, secret non-fat funerals, and pretend that the Dalai Lama Meditation, ranking high tower but no one, everything depends on the orders conveyed by deeds." 1695, Sanggyai Kerry also used the wrong name of the fifth Dalai Lama to Beijing to pay tribute, and caused the book Kangxi Emperor "words, are old, the state must in the first buses, begging thanks to the knighthood." The following year, Emperor Kangxi foreign crusades crusade against the Department of Xinjiang, Junggar, rebellion, defeated the Junggar Department, Galdan took poison and committed suicide. Emperor Kangxi of the Tibetan population from the prisoners learned that the Dalai Lama V died many years of news, furious at the wrong book Sanggyai Kerry hammered.
Sanggyai Jia received the wrong letter, very Konghuang. In 1697, Ying-Cang Yang Jia wrong enthroned in the Potala Palace. VI that year had been 15-year-old Dalai Lama.
Then Tibet has entered a very chaotic forces of the factions struggle for power era. 1705, Sanggyai Kerry was wrong Gushi Khan, the grandson of La Tibet Khan killed. La Tibetan Khan, Emperor Kangxi sent people to go to Beijing to report on Sanggyai Ka mistake "rebellion" after, and played Sanggyai Li Ka wrong positions of the central Ka wrong soul boy of the Dalai Lama is not true on weekdays, indulge in satyric failed to abide by clear rules, please be "waste legislation." Minister of Emperor Kangxi sent to Tibet to placate the central warehouse mistakes were sent under guard Jia Beijing. Jia said the central warehouse to the wrong line of the Qinghai Beach died 24 years of age.
La possession of a VI Khan re-enact the Dalai Lama Ka Hei wrong in Iraq, in the Potala Palace, seated and up to eleven years. 1717, Junggar scored the Ministry of Tibet, killing pull Tibet Khan, Ka Hei Iraqi prisoners at the Potala Palace after the wrong Zhakebuli Hill (Chakpori).
1720, Emperor Kangxi ordered the Crown Prince of Fuyuan major general, again into the possession of the Department of Junggar crusade. And take advantage of the Tibetan people worship the Dalai Lama's deep psychology, sealed in the same year was living in the Tar Monastery, a young Living Buddha Karma Sangjia Xikang wrong for the Dalai Lama VII, escorted by the extension of the letter to the Potala Palace enthroned. Karma Sangjia wrong eight years old at the Litang Monastery as monks, the monks of the age of nine are welcome to the Tar Monastery in Qinghai Mongolia dependent. 12-year-old was selected for the Kangxi Emperor Dalai Lama VII. Luck is pretty good.
The Dalai Lama in 1751 Chikamasa VII. When he was 44 years old. Tibet religious circles that the Dalai Lama VII, "without the slightest bit extreme Imperial Jiaoman division, has been successful in teaching permit merit is still heard from others by the theory, has no temporary homes. Cultivate has reached a profound state, dynamic and static behavior ran water take off your shoes Jie Yi commandments trip. rich in Tibet is good enough for the whole immeasurable, ran for a year in which a set of clothes, "he humble and frugal life, drew much loved by monks and people. Emperor Kangxi was a visionary ah.
Have set out to find a soul boy of the reincarnation of the Dalai Lama, this change of regime, in fact, much better than the inherited blood prince. First, find someone to very strict standards. Found must be intelligent child, then asked the Masters of teaching, has roots run, will be able to Dacheng. These Dalai Lama, it can still leave a lot of the classic book on the religious can be seen not Fanfan's bidding. Second, the Dalai Lama found the soul boy, relatives and the party has not yet come into vogue harem master instrument does not appear to interfere in affairs of state phenomenon. Third, the reincarnation of a great enough overawed the authority of the Tibetan people, obediently Fushou obey the command of the Dalai Lama as the representative of the Kashag.
Mentioned earlier, the Dalai Lama VI, who had poor central warehouse Ka wrong, and his whereabouts are two kinds of argument:
One that he give up fame and position, decisively Dunqu, tour India, Nepal, Kang, Tibet, Gansu, table, Mongolia, etc., macro Farley health, career boundless.
Another said that the central warehouse Jia was sent to the wrong mainland, the Qing emperor took her under house arrest in Wutai, and later he died there. This statement may be more accurate, because, according to a biography of the Dalai Lama 13, 13 Dalai Lama pilgrimage to Wutai Mountain in Shanxi Province, had to see VI, the central position the Dalai Lama sat quiet retreat Kerry the wrong temple.
Dalai Lama's soul boy how the kind of children? One official described the Qing Dynasty, when he was to meet with the British Manning 9 Dalai Lama: "arrived in a huge house, or salute them as a ritual, to the Dalai Lama three Koushou, Prime Minister (the Regent) a Koushou. Side when Peter salute , the valet is being stupid Kai perfume bottle stopper, people wishing to emit fragrance. He will be a gift presented to the Dalai Lama later, Kung Hsien-hat of his shaved head, by the monks Mount ask. Libi, sit not far from the Lama Yuta The mattress, the imperial tea. Ran Lama interesting appearance with a beautiful style, a few of its total attention to Peter that the lamas appearance beauty, poetic, and deeply moving, he was about seven years old, has a good upbringing of children and the noble The plain naive attitude, especially in its gaze Manning, the twilight of a smile, a few of the Qing Qian made to laugh uncontrollably. Manning candid mind of the clouds, funny He laughs are undoubtedly more than the gray mustache and glasses . "
