Sodaji Khenpo: If you have difficulties, find a guardian!

Manjushri Flowers Bloom 2023-12-30


Whether it is Tibetan Buddhism or Chinese Buddhism, it is inseparable from the strong protection of the Dharma protector.

Since ancient times, great monks and great masters have all guardian gods to help each other in the way they appear and do not appear. It is quite difficult to rely solely on personal power to overcome all obstacles and fulfill all wishes.
Just like in today's society, if you want to make some contributions, your level of wisdom must keep up, and social relations must also keep up.
Some fellow Taoists have been practicing successfully over the past ten years and have completed their studies relatively smoothly. They should thank the Dharma Protector for their support.
Some of the guardian gods are inhuman images, and some are inhuman images of us, non-heaven, Rakshasa, Yasha, etc.
Because at that time, different wise masters, different Vajra masters, and Padmasambhava, they had all kinds of identities of guardian gods.The five great Dharma protectors of the Nyingma School are ultimately all manifestations of Padmasambhava and many people who have inherited the wisdom of the inheritance, including some Dharma protectors in the Han area, which are also manifestations of different Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
We should regard them as a body of wisdom, rather than understand them as the world thinks.Although their identities seem to be of various types, the magical instruments they hold are also of various types.
But in factThey play a very important role in our cause of breathing, increasing our jealousy and slaughtering, so in the process of listening, thinking and practicing, the help of the Dharma protector is very important.
If you want to be protected by the Dharma Protector, you must be steady and firm in your behavior.
If we do things in a very true way, our thoughts and actions are very pure, and we often think of good deeds, cause and effect, and benefit sentient beings, the Dharma protector will naturally be very happy.Like a beautiful island,No need to send out a noisy invitation,Gulls will gather naturallyset;Or like flowers in the garden, bees will come everywhere no matter where they bloom.
Similarly, if our body and mind are pure and in accordance with the Dharma, the Heavenly Lord of the Dharma will definitely help us.
On the contrary, if one has extremely poor moral character, betrays his oath, disobeys his parents, and acts illegally, the blessings in succession will be destroyed, just like living alone in the toilet, although he has prepared a wealth of delicious delicacies, no one is willing to visit.
By the same token, your heart is as dirty as the toilet. Even if you have jade liquor and Linlang offerings, the guardian gods such as the Dragon Ba Tribe will not come to get close to you.
If the guardians of heaven come to pull you from above and try their best to climb the ladder of doing good deeds, the door to the palace that will give you infinite benefits in this life and the next life will naturally be open to you.
Some people say they want to increase their fortune, but they don’t even have ten butter lamps and ten divine delicacies offerings, just calling the sky and attracting dragons in an empty mandala.
If we do not need to accumulate merit and only use this to increase blessings, then the only Buddhas and Bodhisattvas who are altruistic have long given all sentient beings good fortune, but this is not the case.
so,In the future, everyone should take practical actions and make offerings according to their own conditions. Even if they have a little candy, they should offer them to the Buddha first and then enjoy them.
When offering sacrifices to the Dharma Protector, it is best for fellow Taoists to have abundant offerings, otherwise the Dharma Protector may not necessarily help.
If you do not accumulate blessings, the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas and Dharma protectors will not be able to help such people.In the past, there was a practitioner living in the mountains in Tibet. Because life was very difficult, he began to meditate on the Dharma Protector.
Later, this person really achieved enlightenment. He and the guardian god of Shan Jian could talk like humans, but he did not gain any siddhi.
The guardian god of Shan Jian said to him, “Because you have not had any blessings for giving before, I really cannot give you Siddhi."One day, among the ranks of many beggars, this practitioner got a bowl of porridge.
After returning, the guardian of the Dharma asked, “I gave you Siddhi today, do you know?"The man said, "I only got a bowl of porridge, and not only me, but all the beggars got it. I wonder what Siddi you gave?”
Shan Jian’s Dharma Guardian said:“There is a large piece of grease in your bowl, and this is the Siddhi I gave.”
Although the practitioner met with the Dharma Protector Shan Jian, because he had no blessings of giving in the past, even the extremely powerful Dharma Protector Shan Jian could only give a piece of oily Siddhi.
In addition, he is unable to help him, which shows the importance of accumulating blessings.



 • Every time you forward• 

  • All will light up a heartlamp• 

Manjushri's bravery and wisdom, Samantabhadra's wisdom will be the same
I will now dedicate my good roots to all the good roots and practice them according to all the constant practices.
The most supreme vows that all Buddhas in the three ages praised
I am dedicating my good roots to achieve the extraordinary practice of Samantabhadra.
