因为必须是活着的缘故。因此,有些智者说:“必须说国王朗达玛已经死了。”这是不了解理性的细微之处的说法。对于说这种道理,我们有无穷无尽的理由,但因为顾虑太多所以没有展开。其他的术语安立方式,也应该通过这里所说的推理方式来理解。如果不明白这些粗略的差别,即使承认前后世和业果等,也只是由信仰引导的臆测,而不是由正量引导的坚定信念。因此,如果想要像至尊您所说的那样,在自相续中留下良好而深厚的习气,就应该寻求通过正量确定的稳固理解。总之,即使事物在自性上不存在,也必须知道,在名言中,如幻如化的业果等一切作用的缘起都是完全合理的。如果这样理解并恭敬,不仅有利益,而且也是自己具有前世良好习气的标志。如《摄颂》中说:‘无论谁听到此法如幻如化,没有怀疑,并返回学习和修行,这样的众生,从很久以前就已进入大乘种姓,已经供养了无数的佛陀。’因此,还必须这样理解,如果不理解,即使有信仰,也会堕入常断的边见而流转轮回;如果理解,就能从这两种边见中解脱,从而从轮回中解脱。如圣者龙树所说:‘以有不能得解脱,以无亦不能从此有中解脱,若能遍知有与无,是则大士得解脱。’以及‘执有者趣向善趣,执无者趣向恶趣,如实了知真实义,不依二边得解脱。’如是说故。 说道: 导师胜者与龙树月称之, 如至尊上师所诠释之意。 甚深义理精要摄集少分, 为利求义者故善为宣说。 断除利养恭敬名闻贪欲后, 即已投入讲说甚深义理中, 身语意三所造一切诸善业, 愿令远离边见之妙道增广。

Because it must be alive. Therefore, some scholars say, "It must be said that King Langdarma is dead." This is a statement that does not understand the subtle points of reasoning. Although we have endless reasons for speaking in this way, we have not elaborated on it because of too many concerns. Other ways of establishing terms should also be understood through the reasoning methods mentioned here. If you do not understand these rough differences, even if you accept past and future lives and karmic results, etc., it is only speculation guided by faith, not a firm belief guided by valid cognition. Therefore, if you want to leave a good and deep habit in your own mindstream, as the Lord himself said, you should seek a firm understanding determined by valid cognition. In short, even though things do not exist inherently, you must know that in conventional truth, all the interdependent relationships of actions and effects, such as illusions and emanations, are perfectly reasonable. If you understand and respect this, not only will there be benefits, but it will also be a sign that you have good habits from the past. As it says in the Compendium: 'Whoever hears this Dharma as being like illusions and emanations, without doubt, and returns to study and practice, such beings have long been of the Mahayana lineage and have made offerings to countless Buddhas.' Therefore, it is also necessary to understand in this way, because if you do not understand, even if you have faith, you will fall into the extremes of permanence and annihilation and wander in samsara; if you understand, you will be liberated from these two extremes and thus be liberated from samsara. As the Protector Nagarjuna said: 'By existence, one cannot be liberated; by non-existence, one cannot be liberated from this existence. If one fully knows existence and non-existence, then the great being is liberated.' And 'Those who cling to existence go to happy realms; those who cling to non-existence go to bad realms. If one fully knows the true meaning as it is, one will not rely on either extreme and will be liberated.' Thus it is said. Said: The Teacher, the Supreme One, and Nagarjuna and Chandrakirti, According to the meaning explained by the venerable Lama, A few parts of the essence of the profound meaning are collected, For the benefit of those who seek meaning, it is well explained. Having completely abandoned the desire for gain, respect, and fame, I have engaged in explaining this profound meaning, Whatever virtuous deeds are created by the three doors, May the excellent path of the view free from extremes increase.
