Because I was interested in the history of the development of the various factions of the academy, and was a fan of Guru Tsongsa, I once watched three Buddhist movies in a row, and I liked this simple and kind faith.
That is "Kailash", "Hey Ma Hey Ma", "World Cup on the Mountain", this simple world, once made me yearn to go on a pilgrimage, in my few two pilgrimages, I have encountered many unforgettable things, Amway These good movies are indeed very meaningful.
Kailash
I recently saw a friend from a Tibetan area in my circle of friends go on a pilgrimage to Kailash, a mountain range that has magical powers that make people yearn.
The tibetans' lifelong dream is to be able to go to the Jokhang Temple and Kailash pilgrimage, the beginning of the movie is a small village of people, gathered a small team, from the hometown to worship, a long journey, about a year of worship, with feet to measure this land, the road pregnant woman gave birth to a child, the elderly finally fell on the road, in fact, died on the road is also dead on the road of pilgrimage, this simple dream is difficult for us to imagine.
Kailash, along with the Meili Snow Mountain, the Animaqing Mountain Range, and the Gaduo Kyaw Wo of Yushu in Qinghai, is known as the Four Sacred Mountains of Tibetan Buddhism. The Ganges Stretch across the Kunlun Mountains in the north and the Himalayas in the south, like a dragon lying on the vast plateau of Ali in western Tibet. Its high-rise head, like a great pyramid, towers over the plateau of Aripuram, the main peak of Kailash at 6656 meters above sea level.
Kailash Peak is a sacred mountain in many religions. Known in Sanskrit as Mt. Girassa, the northern foothills of Mount Kailash are the birthplace of the Shiquan River in the upper Indus River. According to legend, Yongzhong Bon originated from this mountain; Hinduism believes that this mountain is the dwelling place of Shiva, the center of the world; Jainism believes that this mountain is the place where its ancestor Reis Habana attained enlightenment, and Tibetan Buddhism believes that this mountain is the dwelling place of Katsura Vajrayogini, representing immeasurable happiness, and the believers who have been wandering the mountain here for many years continue to be.
They pack their bags is not troublesome, on the road, only need to buy dozens of pairs of cloth shoes can be, eat as long as there is rice on the line, live in the place sometimes in the cave, sometimes with the help of Tibetan homes, no money to do, stay and work, until they earn enough travel expenses, go on the road again, their bags are not heavy, the dream is their best bag.
That lifetime/Cangyang Gyatso
That year
Prostrating his head crawling on the mountain road, not for the sake of seeing
Just to stick to your warmth
That life
Turning mountains and water to stupas, not for the sake of cultivating the afterlife
Just to meet you on the way
That moment
I raise the wind and the horse, not for the sake of beg
Just waiting for your arrival
"Hey Ma Hey Ma"
Sometimes we have to create illusions so that the world can see the truth— Khyentse Norbu
Dancing vajra dance, which is not common in real life, in Buddhism, especially in Tibetan Buddhism, is a very common dance, the story of every 12 years, inside the forest at the foot of the Himalayas, from the people selected, wearing masks, living in isolation for a period of time, this time the story of the occurrence.
No matter what your identity is, put on the mask, you have to let go of the past, let go of the world, and live in the present life for a while. Under the difference between yin and yang, some people meditate on cultivation, but some people cannot resist primitive desires, in the boundary between true and false, the gap between life and death, the mask is taken down is destruction.
What is passed on to the world in the song is actually the truth, you just listen to their song, the lyrics in it, really very meaningful.
The game represents reincarnation, the mask represents the different bodies that are changed every time, the evil stems from namelessness, that is, the mask is regarded as the self, everyone should not have played this game in the first place, because of the mask and unscrupulous killing and adultery, in this mask game setting, the chain reaction.
Identity, reincarnation, in human society, all people must have names and faces, as a simple identification system, and this identification system itself forms moral constraints.
In the final bar, people seem to be wearing masks again, which is the truth and which is the fantasy?
World Cup on the Mountain
This film is based on a true story, Tibet in the 50s, there was a small lama, for the quadrennial World Cup, very yearning, the old lama does not know why the World Cup why so many people grab a ball? There's also a hilarious conversation.
There is a saying: "The Dharma is in the world, and it is not separated from the world", and the agility of youth and the steadiness of the practitioner are in harmony with each other. Passed down from generation to generation, one can be a modern person on the outside and a faith in cultivation on the inside.
Happiness is not only caused by the outside world, but also runs out of our own hearts, as Yishu said: "The reason why we are unhappy is that we do not know how to stay quietly in the room and get along with ourselves calmly." ”
These three films, about the Dharma, the great wisdom in the Dharma, guides people's lives, it is not rigid, but flexible, he can be in life, he can also be in practice.
People often think that dreams are difficult to achieve, too abstract, our life is like a trip, the bags we carry with us, will be slowly discarded, this body will slowly grow old, everything can not be taken, only karma with us.
We should carry with us the compass-like faith in life, so that we will take fewer wrong paths, and only then will we have happiness by all kinds of seeds of goodness.
