【 Faults of not relying on the Teacher 未依过患】Our Masters 阿阇黎者

【Faults of not relying on the Teacher】- Our Masters

【The Tantra Bestowing the Initiation of Vajrapani states: 】

This quotation is from this Tantra scripture.

【“Bhagavan, what sort of fruition is there for those who reproach their masters?” 】

This scripture is a dialogue between Buddha and Vajrapani. Vajrapani is also known as Mahasthamaprapta (大勢至菩薩) – he is the main protector of Tantrayana. Vajrapani says, “Buddha! If someone were to reproach his master” – the referenced masters are of several categories. In general, there are five: ordination, precept, teaching, scriptural instruction, and reliance. However, earlier in this text, the author told us even when you heard a verse of four lines. Actually, once you have a true understanding, everyone is our teacher and enables your achievement as a Buddha! Devadetta was one of Buddha’s greatest masters. We all wish to follow in Buddha’s steps and, beginning from our virtuous teachers, advance step by step and eventually, everyone is our teacher. That will be the time of attaining our achievement.

未依过患 : 阿阇黎者

【《金刚手灌顶续》云：】

这个经典里面说，密续里边说：

【[薄伽梵，若有毁谤阿阇黎者，彼等当感何等异熟。】

那么这个经里边是佛跟金刚手菩萨的对语，金刚手菩萨就是大势至菩萨，他在密教里是密部的主。说：[佛陀呀！假定有人毁谤他的阿阇黎]，他这个阿阇黎我们要了解是几种，一般说五种：出家、羯摩、教授、授经、依止，都是。不过这个地方他上面告诉我们，乃至于你听一四句偈，实际上你真正了解了以后，所有的人都是我们的阿阇黎耶，他成就你，使你成佛嘛！提婆达多就是世尊的一个最了不起的阿阇黎。我们总希望能够从佛开始、善知识开始，一步一步上去，到最后任何人都是我们的阿阇黎，那时候我们就成就了。
