..續本文上一頁了叁年之後,他“恢複了本性”,並成爲動中禅的一位導師。他在才也紅(Chaiyabhum)省的帕殊卡特寺(Wat Pasukhato)建立了禅修中心,教導人們修動中禅、舉辦活動幫助鄉下地區的貧窮人家以及從事環境保護的工作。
After practicing many forms of meditation without any real result, Achan Da, a monk from the Northeast, heard about the teachings of Luangpor Teean and after a long search he finally met Luangpor Teean and practiced under his guidance. It took Achan Da only three days to know rupa-nama (body-mind). He then progressed rapidly toward the end of suffering and has become a dynamic meditation teacher. He has taught at Wat Mokkhavanaram as an abbot of this meditation center.
◎另一位來自東北部的僧侶阿姜達,也是練習過多種禅修卻得不到任何成果,他聽到有關隆波田的教導,經過長期的尋訪,終于遇見了隆波田並在他的指導下修練。阿姜達只花了叁天就了悟名色(身心),然後快速的進展而證得苦滅,成爲一位動中禅導師。他在解脫森林寺(Wat Mokkhavanaram)當住持並教導禅修。
In 1975, Luangpor Teean was invited to teach meditation at Wat Chonlaprathan in Nonthaburi, a province adjoining Bangkok. As an illiterate monk from the countryside, he was of little interest to the people from Bangkok who often visited this well-known monastery. However, a scholar monk named Kovit Khemananda, whose talks attracted many intellectuals and students, was also teaching at Wat Chonlaprathan at that time and was puzzled by some of Luangpor Teean”s words and actions. Eventually Khemananda came to recognize his great enlightening wisdom. After his "discovery" by Khemananda, Luangpor Teean became a figure of interest to intellectuals and students in Bangkok and throughout the country.
◎1975年,隆波田應邀到曼谷隔鄰農達布裏省(Nonthaburi)的崇樂普拉丹寺(Wat Chonlaprathan)教導禅修,由于他來自鄉下又目不識丁,因此一些常來這間有名寺院拜訪的曼谷人對他興趣缺缺。反倒是另一位叫做柯維‧凱瑪難陀(Kovit Khemananda)的學問僧,他的談話卻吸引了許多知識分子和學生,那時他也正在崇樂寺(Wat Chonlaprathan)教禅修,而且對隆波田的一些言行感到困惑不解。但是到後來,凱瑪難陀終于理解了隆波田偉大的正覺智慧。就在凱瑪難陀的發掘之後,隆波田在曼谷成爲知識分子和學生們很有興趣的著名人物,並擴展至全國各地。
In late 1976, Luangpor Teean founded a meditation center, Wat Sanamnai, on the outskirts of Bangkok, and from this central location he accepted many invitations to give talks and teach dynamic meditation at universities, hospitals, schools, and Buddhist clubs at various institutions, including government departments and ministries. In 1986, Luangpor Teean resigned from all administrative works and let Achan Thong (or in his Pali name, " Abhakaro"), an ordained disciple from Udornthani, to be the abbot of Wat Sanamnai. Born in 1939, Achan Thong was raised in northeastern Thailand mostly by his mother, since his father died when he was only 7 years old. Following tradition, he was ordained at the age of 22. He met Luangpor Teean at Buhom in 1968 and asked for an intensive meditation retreat under his guidance where he could remain in a small cottage without there being any obligation towards the normal monastic activities. His request was granted by Luangpor Teean. Later on, this sort of arrangement became a regular practice during Luangpor Teean”s meditation retreats.
◎1976年尾,隆波田建立了一個禅修中心——曼谷近郊的南來寺(WatSanamnai),而後就經常接受到這個重要地區之大學、醫院、學校、各機構佛學社或甚至政府部門的邀請,給予法談或教授動中禅。1986年,隆波田卸下所有管理的工作並指定阿姜通(烏洞塔尼的出家弟子,巴利名爲阿巴卡羅(Abhakaro)。譯注:即隆波通)擔任南來寺住持。阿姜通生于1939年,成長于泰國東北部,由于父親在他7歲時就過逝,因此大多由他母親一手帶大。他依照傳統習俗在22歲時出家爲僧,而後于1968年在不紅鎮遇見隆波田。阿姜通請求隆波田指導他閉關禅修、並希望能有一間小茅蓬而且不需要承擔一般的寺院雜務,隆波田答應了他的請求。後來,這種方式在隆波田教導的禅修中變成一種很平常的修行。
All the while, Luangpor Teean continued his teaching in the provinces. As his reputation grew, his teaching was increasingly spread by pamphlets, books, and audiocassettes. He also went to the south and taught people at Hatyai, where a meditation center, Suan Thammsakon, was built for the practice of dynamic meditation.
◎隆波田一直繼續不斷地在一些省城教學。他的名聲越來越高,他的教導也藉由小冊子、書和錄音帶漸漸地傳布開來。他還到南方教導哈鐵(Hatyai)人,該地的栓‧塔瑪色空(Suan Thammsakon)禅修中心就是爲修練動中禅而建立的。
Luangpor Teean went to Singapore twice in 1982 on the invitation of a Buddhist group there. His first visit to Singapore, June 8-24, marked a historical event when he met Yamada Roshi, a Zen master from Japan.[7…
