　　The purpose of this paper is to briefly introduce the life and teachings of the Thai Buddhist monk Luangpor Teean. Luangpor Teean (1911-1988) was an important teacher within the world of Thai Buddhism who introduced a new technique of meditation that can be characterized as "dynamic" in contrast to the more conventional techniques of "static" meditation. He elucidated the goal of Buddhist practice with an unsurpassed vividness and authenticity. His dynamic meditation is also unique among the various schools of the contemporary Buddhist world.

　　◎本文的目的是要简介一位泰国佛教僧侣—隆波田的一生和教导。隆波田(1911-1988)在泰国佛教界是一位重要的导师，他介绍一种“动态”的禅修新方法，而与一般传统“静态”的禅修方法不同。他用非常生动而明确的方式阐明了佛教修行的目标，他的动中禅也在当代佛教界众多不同宗派之中独树一格。

　　Luangpor Teean”s dynamic meditation is practiced by using rhythmic bodily movement to develop awareness (sati), an awareness that can encounter thoughts or mental images -- the root causes of human suffering. The teachings of Luangpor Teean indicate the way of developing awareness, which breaks through the chain of thoughts; once awareness has become the dominating power over thoughts and mental images, it simultaneously overcomes attraction, resistance, and delusion, and hence suffering.

　　◎隆波田的动中禅是练习藉规律的身体动作来发展觉知(正念)，这种觉知能临遇(encounter)人们痛苦根源的念头或心智影像。隆波田的教导指引了一条发展觉知的道路，以突破环链般的念头和心智影像；一旦对于念头和心智影像的觉知力量变得强大有力，同时便能克服引生痛苦的诱惑、抗拒和愚痴(译注：即贪、瞋、痴)。

　　The story of Luangpor Teean”s life is of some interest in itself. He attained the Dhamma while he was a layman, which is very unusual (and for some hard to credit) in the monastically centered world of Thai Buddhism. His experience of Dhamma involved a sudden way of knowing, which is more common in the history of Ch”an Buddhism in China and Zen Buddhism in Japan[1] In contemporary terms, Luangpor Teean can be seen as a teacher of "sudden enlightenment" in a Theravada context; from a historical perspective, his story is similar to that of Hui-neng (638-713), the sixth patriarch of Ch”an Buddhism in China, who also attained sudden enlightenment while a lay person.

　　◎隆波田的生平非常有趣，当他还是优婆塞时就体证了法，这在以寺院为中心的泰国佛教界是极不寻常的(甚至有点难以置信)。他的体证和当代中国与日本襌宗[1]盛行的顿悟法门有密切关联，隆波田可说是原始佛教中一位“顿悟”的禅师；从佛教历史来看，他的生平事迹与中国禅宗六祖惠能大师(638-713)颇为相似，惠能大师也是以优婆塞之身而获得顿悟的。

　　His Life

　　◎他的一生

　　The fifth child of Chin and Som Inthaphiu,Luangpor Teean was born on September 5, 1911, at Buhom, a small village in the remote province of Loei in the north eastern region of Thailand[2] His given name was Phan. He had four brothers and one sister. Since his father died when he was still very young, the boy had to spend much of his time helping his mother with the hard work of running their farm.

　　◎隆波田于1911年9月5日，出生在泰国东北部洛伊省(Loei)的不红(Buhom)小镇[2](现在应该很红)，是其母“青”与父“桑‧印塔飘”的第五个小孩，名字叫做“潘‧印塔佩悟”，他有四个兄弟、一个姐妹。由于父亲早逝，童年的隆波田必须花很多时间帮忙母亲，辛苦工作照顾农场。

　　There were no schools in the area, and Phan received no formal education. However, at the age of 10, he was ordained as a novice at the local monastery, where his uncle, Yakhuphong Chansuk, was a resident monk. Diligent, obedient, and devout, Phan spent eighteen months there studying ancient Buddhist scripts, meditation, and magic before he disrobed to return to his home. Later, following tradition, he was ordained as a monk at the age of 20, again studying and meditating with his uncle, this time for six months. His interest in meditation, fuelled by a deep faith in the Buddha”s teachings, continued to grow, and he practiced regularly.

　　◎当地没有学校，于是潘‧印塔佩悟没有接受正式教育。10岁时，他在当地的寺院剃度成为沙弥，他的叔叔雅虎峰‧禅殊是该寺的常住。在寺里，潘‧印塔佩悟精进、服从且虔…
