噶瑪巴對聯合國國際和平日的訊息

親愛的法友,

只有當我們的思想是平靜的,我們才能為和平的繁榮創造其有利條件。

當我們花點時間觀察心識的時候,我們可以看到和平並不是一種「外在」且抽象的東西,而是「內在」,它是一種內在與此時此刻的東西。

和平就像慈悲和智慧,是我們與生俱來,是我們的內在財富。它不是給創造出來,而是給發現和孕育出來的。

在這個聯合國國際和平日,我們大家可以用一些時間思考心識的本質。這樣,將自然地在自己的心田,對本來俱有的和平種子給施肥,然後也同樣地會給予所有的有情眾生。

致上祈禱
泰耶多傑

#Karmapa’s message on the UN International Day of Peace:

Dear dharma friends

Only when our mind is calm can we create the fertile conditions for peace to flourish.

And when we take some time to examine the mind, we can see that peace is not something abstract that is ‘out there,’ but it is ‘in here,’ in the here and now.

Peace is, like compassion and wisdom, part of our innate nature, our Inner Wealth. It is not to be created, but discovered and nurtured.

On this United Nations International Day of Peace, may we all take some time to reflect on the nature of our minds. By doing so, we will naturally fertilise the innate seed of peace, first in our hearts, and then for all sentient beings.

With prayers
Thaye Dorje
His Holiness the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa
