增加忆念上师次数

Ina Dhargye 译英 

有些人已然认出这个正念，有些人则尚未，而当我们忆念自己对根本上师的虔敬时，透过这份虔敬，便能认识到自己的

正念与上师的正念其实是一体的。因此，最重要的是观修虔敬。

从修持的角度来看，正念的精要是空性，其本质是明性，但若你试着找寻，却遍寻不着。这个正念的本质与上师的正念本质是相同的，如果你对根本上师有着不变的信心与虔敬，则上师的身相就会出现在心中，此时你将记得上师的教诲。

就有如，一般来说，当你爱着某人的时候，你会无法忘怀对方，对方也总是出现在心中那样。同样的，上师将出现在你的心中，而每当上师出现时，你将记起上师

的教诲。

认知到这份正念即为上师的正念，或以大圆满的词汇来说，以正念觉知忆念上师，这对初学者来说，是比较容易的修持方法。所以，这份觉知或正念，就代表着上师。

此外，你可以每天都立誓要忆念上师，例如：「我今天要忆念上师十次」，然后隔天增加为十五次，又过隔天为二十次。如此逐渐增加忆念上师的次数，最后你的心将与上师真实同在。如果缺乏正念，上师便不会于心中生起，这是极为殊胜的教授。

From the perspective of practice, the essence of this mindfulness is emptiness and its nature is clarity, but if you

look for it you cannot find it. This mindfulness is the same nature as the mindfulness of the guru, and if you have an unchanging faith and devotion to your root guru, then the form of the root guru will appear in your mind, and you will 

remember the guru's instructions.

It is just like ordinarily when you love a person, you cannot forget about them, they will always appear in your mind. In the same way, the guru will appear in your mind, and each time the guru appears, you will remember the guru's instructions.

This is an easier way of practice for beginning practitioners- to recognize that this mindfulness is the mindfulness of the guru, or in Dzogchen terms, it is said that it is mindful presence remembering the guru. So this mindful presence or mindfulness represents the guru.

Also, each and every day, you can take a commitment to remember the guru; for example, "today I am going to

remember the guru ten times," then the next day fifteen times, and then twenty times. You increase your commitment

to remember the guru, and eventually through that your mind will truly become inseparable from the guru. If you lack

mindfulness, then also the guru will not arise within your mind- that is a unique instruction.
