噶奇美多傑仁波切是瑪瑟家族在瑪南的第三代,2019 年由怙主直貢澈贊法王委任主持這個閉關園區。 他談到自己時,說前兩代已經離開。
GarTul Chimi Dorjee Rinpoche is the third generation of the Mase family in Manang, appointed in 2019 by His Holiness the Drikung Chetsang Rinpoche to lead this retreat campus. Speaking of himself, he says the previous two generations have passed.
而現在,這件事來到自己身上。
Now, somehow, this responsibility has come to him.
他並沒有把它描述成一個早就安排好的生涯計畫。
He does not describe it as a career plan prepared long ago.
反而像是,在時間與因緣裡,自己被放進了一個需要承擔的位置。
It sounds more like being placed, through time and circumstances, into a position that asks something of him.
其中很重要的一部分,來自直貢澈贊法王的指導與願心。仁波切感受到,法王認為他或許適合在這裡做一些工作。
An important part of this came through the guidance and aspiration of His Holiness the Drikung Chetsang Rinpoche. Rinpoche felt that His Holiness may have seen him as suitable to put some effort into this work.
兩個世代
Two generations
仁波切說,他看到兩件事:
Rinpoche names two concerns:
一個是我們這一代。另一個,是即將到來的下一代。
Our generation, and the upcoming generation.
因此瑪南的問題不只是「怎麼保存以前留下來的東西」。真正的問題是:我們這一代,要把什麼交出去?
The question is therefore not only how to preserve what was inherited. It is: what will our generation hand forward?
仁波切的答案並不是先談建築。他說,他最希望扎根的是:
Rinpoche's first answer is not architecture. He wants to root:
情感、愛、尊重,以及心裡的溫暖。
Affection, love, respect, and warmth of heart.
好的傳統,也需要清楚的智慧
Good tradition still needs intelligence
仁波切並沒有把傳統浪漫化。
Rinpoche does not romanticize tradition.
我們手上可能已經擁有好的文化、好的心與珍貴的傳承。但這些東西如果只是被動地保存,並不一定會成為真正的修行。
We may already hold good cultural traditions, a good heart, and valuable inheritances. But passive preservation does not automatically make them practice.
他談到,需要有意識地運用自己的智慧,直接工作在這個活生生、會呼吸、可以親身經驗的生命上。
He speaks about intentionally sharpening intelligence and working directly with living, breathing, experiential life.
也就是說:傳承不是把答案交給下一代,而是把一個可以真正工作、觀察、實踐的方式交下去。
Inheritance is therefore not simply handing the next generation an answer. It is giving them a way to observe, work, and practice for themselves.
