達賴喇嘛尊者接見台灣信眾的談話

> 台灣圖博之友 > 錄音整理(未經達賴喇嘛尊者過目,文字不順之處敬請包涵) >  >  >  > 此地很多是佛教徒,我平時都這麼的對大眾說,華人佛教徒和藏族佛教徒在輩分比較下,華人佛教徒是長輩我是晚輩,所以在此向你們致意。 >  >  >  > 「我常常想念著你們。」 >  >  >  >   第一次來台灣時,看到台灣發展到非常蓬勃的階段,也非常的崇拜民主,人民也非常努力,即使是一塊小小的土地也不會讓它空著,盡量去耕作或做一些有意義的事,是我看到非常好的現象;第二次到台灣,那時候我覺得每隔一年就拜訪台灣一次(大眾拍手),這是我2001年第二次拜訪台灣,從2002年開始與北京的關係重新恢復了,北京的老師非常嚴厲,我沒辦法來台灣,因此會有一些台灣的信眾到達蘭薩拉來見我,他們就對我說:「法王,你是不是忘了台灣的佛教徒呢?」「我絕對沒有忘記你們,」「我常常想念著你們。」因為那時候和中國政府有直接的聯繫,為了不要破壞這些聯繫,所以我無法來台灣,去年開始我們的關係有點惡化,因為與中國關係惡化,我變得更自由了,雖然我變得比較自由了,但台灣政府方面好像有 點怕怕的、有點問題,一般而言台灣政府和中國的關係越來越良好,我非常的贊賞,我覺得這是非常良好的現象,最主要的是經濟會逐漸越來越好,另一方面台灣人民的恐懼心也會隨之而減少。 >  >  >  > 願對災民心靈有幫助 > 答應來台 >  >  >  >   前一陣子發生水災,我接到邀請函,我聽到水災消息時,我是一位比丘,我常常為一切眾生而祈福,如同龍樹菩薩的著作中提到:希望我可以如同地水火風一樣,來幫助人民利益人民。我常常念誦這偈頌文做發願。因為災民的請求,如果我可以來,對他們心靈上有少許的幫助,那是我平常所發的願在慢慢達成,因此我就有這個心願想要來台灣,因為這原故,我來到台灣,也見到一些老朋友,非常高興。在拜訪二地水災災區時,我內心非常憂傷,特別是一個災區,因為水災、土石流的緣故,整個村約有二百多戶的村民被活埋了,到那個地方時我感到非常的傷心,在前一天是一個完整的村莊,隔一天就完全被土石流沖走了,瞬間就消滅了,前幾天我也提到,如同世尊說:「諸行無常。」看到這樣的景象,讓我們知道原來一切諸 行都是無常的,這是世尊給我們的教誨。 >  >  >  > 在台灣三天的時間裡,第一天是去災區為他們祈福,讓他們內心可以得到一些慰藉,他們心靈得到慰藉,我感到高興,同樣我也為他們做一些祈福的法會。昨天我遇到樞機主教,和他對談,我也非常高興。不管我拜訪任何一個地方,我有二個使命,第一個是提升人類心靈的價值,第二是促進宗教和諧、化解衝突;昨天來到台北,今天早上和一些藏人會面、現在和你們見面,下午見一些朋友,明天早上我就離開了,我就要回到我第二個家鄉印度去了。 >  >  … Continue reading
