【Listening 听闻】That terrible person has eaten already 坏蛋已经吃过了
【LISTENING】– That terrible person has eaten already
Ben Kungyal later became a renowned teacher in his time. There were all kinds of stories about him that are still spreading now. Each of his stories is very touching. Once, he was with the Sangha community to receive offerings, and there were many monks. Since he was ordained later than others, he was seated in the back. The arrangement of their dining hall was like what we have now [by ordained seniority]; their arrangement was considered pretty good... The way Tibetans have their tea – when offering, they used butter tea, the top layer is thick with butter and the amount of butter gradually decreases toward the end of serving the tea. He sat in the back waiting patiently; at first, concentrating on studying, but later, the next thought arose, “[My] stomach is hungry and cold. Alas, by the time it will be my turn, there will be no more butter left on the top.” With this thought, he felt, “Ah! Ben Kungyal, here you go again!” So he vigorously glared with widened eyes, and took his alms bowl “pa!” flipped it over. [With the bowl] turned over, when the server came by: “Hey, you, it is your turn, take out your bowl!” He replied, “That terrible person has already eaten, he needs to starve today.” That server didn’t know what he was doing: “You take it out!” “No, that terrible person has eaten already; he must starve well for one day!” Due to his generation of such a thought, he left his bowl that way. Thus, he eventually became a great virtuous teacher of his time – a model practitioner.

听闻 : 坏蛋已经吃过了
奔公甲后来成为一代善知识，他有各式各样的故事，到现在流传不绝，他这个故事，每个故事动人得不得了。有一次，他在僧众当中应供，大家很多人应供，应供啊，因为他出家晚了，坐在后头。他们那个行堂像我们现在一样，那个行堂是好的——他们那个西藏人吃那个茶，那个茶啊，供的时候有个奶茶，上面那个就是奶呀，那个“butter”很厚，弄得后来，那个东西没有了，越来越少了，他坐在后头，慢慢地，开始的时候用功，后来起了一个念头：“肚子又饿，又冷。哎呀，轮到我的时候，那上面的油都没有了。”他起了这么一个念头，心里觉得：“啊！奔公甲，你又来了！”就这样狠狠地瞪了一下眼睛，他就把自己的那个钵啊，“叭！”盖在那里。盖在那里呀，那个行堂跑过头来，“欸，你，轮到你了，把它拿出来！”他说：“那个坏蛋已经吃过了，今天要饿他一天。”那个人不晓得他干什么：“你拿出来！”“不行，坏蛋已经吃过了，要好好地饿他一天！”他因为起这么一个念头，就把他那个钵摆在那里．所以他终于成为一代大善知识，修行人的典型。
