His Holiness the XVI Karmapa would...begin his daily practice recitations-
his ,, personal liturgy,, if you will-
as soon as he awoke in the morning
and would recite it whenever he had a break
from the sometimes endless stream of visitors
who would come to see him throughout the day.
And in spite of how busy he was,
no matter how many people came to see him,
even if it took him into middle of the night to finish it,
I never saw him not finish his recitation book every day.
During the last two or three days of his life, I was attending him.
And during those days, he had become so weak physically,
as he was dying,
that he could not even hold uphis chant book.
So I would hold up the book with one hand and then turn the pages with the other.
And sometimes if I turned it too soon
and he had not quite finished it,
I would have to turn it back.
He went through the whole book every day,
even when he was dying.
On the last day of his life,
he had me open the book,
he chanted the first page,
and then he told me to wrap it back
and he placed it on his head.
So, if somebody who long ago achieved awakening, who is an undisputed nirmanakaya
of all buddhas of the three times,
lives like that, then what must we do ?
...
Since I was brought up by the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa
and because he was the greatest influence on me,
the way he lived is the standard that I look to.
... because of the influence of the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa
I practice every day.
I start my recitations in the morning,
and I go through them all every day,
no matter how long it takes me
and no matter how busy I am.,,
Tak, masz rację. Pewnie z tej okazji wkleję jakiś cytat z tantr związany z pamiętaniem i uczczeniem rocznicy parinirwany lamy :)
