第101任甘丹赤巴, 法王甘丹赤苏仁波切1927年生于藏区东部的达瓦地区。八岁时, 法王进入当地亚丁的一间寺院—洋登寺出家修学佛法,并陆续在上师的座下得到了沙弥戒和比丘戒。

1949年, 法王进入拉萨甘丹夏孜寺学习。作为一位学僧,仁波切在多位大成就上师的座下,学习量学、般若、中观等科目,并且接受了许多甘丹山派清净传承的珍贵教授及灌顶。

中国革命后,仁波切在1959年逃亡印度,在印度与北丹边境的巴萨继续他的中观学课程,并接续完成了俱舍论及戒律方面的学习。除了参加寺院课程外,仁波切也进行了许多闭关禅修活动。 1969年,仁波切完成五部大论的深造,在当地一所著名藏传佛教大学进行会考,并以第一名的荣誉结业。 1970年,三大寺及其他寺院联合举办了一个为期二十天的最终辩考,仁波切从三十多位杰出的学者中脱颖而出,获得拉然巴格西学位。仁波切接着进入上密院学习高深的密法。

1983年及1992年,仁波切分别被达赖喇嘛委任为上密院及甘丹夏孜寺的主持。在主持任内,仁波切除了负责僧团的管理及戒律事务外,也进行了众多的供修及教授;仁波切对寺院的贡献是广被认受及尊崇的。达赖喇嘛对仁波切的这些特质甚为欣赏,曾于1986年选定仁波切作为佛教界的代表,参与天主教会教宗约翰·保罗二世所发起,在义大利举行的‘跨信仰大公主义高峰会’。

  1. Gaden Trisur Rinpoche Lungrik Namgyal Rinpoche is possessed of numerous credentials that make him a very highly qualified Lama. He has engaged in innumerable Dharma activities both in India and abroad. He mainly resides in France.

    In 2003, he was appointed as the 101 Gaden Tripa and official spiritual leader of all Gelug sects for a period of seven years.

    This highly placed Lama surprised the Tibetan Buddhist world when, upon the termination of his seven-year office, recently, he announced that he was joining Shar Gaden! And his whole Ladrang followed him!

    Shar Gaden was the monastery, which was set up to preserve the practice of Dorje Shugden, for the benefit of all sentient beings. It was set up by monks, who were steadfast in displaying loyalty to their lineage Lamas and practices, Dorje Shugden being one of them. It was established as a monastery against a backdrop of the Dalai Lama’s ban on Dorje Shugden practice, and all the subsequent severe ostracizing and ‘bashing’ of Dorje Shugden and Shugden practitioners.

    So Gaden Trisur Rinpoche Jetsun Lungrik Namgyal Rinpoche is a fine example for others to follow and is cause for great rejoicing for the benefit of all. May Je Tsongkhapa’s teachings continue to spread and benefit all through the flourishing of Shar Gaden Monastery!.

Contemplate This

.…Instead of turning away people who practise Dorje Shugden, we should be kind to them. Give them logic and wisdom without fear, then in time they give up the ‘wrong’ practice. Actually Shugden practitioners are not doing anything wrong. But hypothetically, if they are, wouldn’t it be more Buddhistic to be accepting? So those who have views against Dorje Shugden should contemplate this. Those practicing Dorje Shugden should forbear with extreme patience, fortitude and keep your commitments. The time will come as predicted that Dorje Shugden’s practice and it’s terrific quick benefits will be embraced by the world and it will be a practice of many beings.
