The Inborn Characters 從小見大

拍這張照的時候，看著這三位的互動，覺得甚是奇妙。

這張照片也確實如實傳達了他們各自獨特的性情。

虛空金剛仁波切的一舉一動就像個國王，很明確，氣勢十足。從我第一次看到他，連話都還不會講的時候，就是如此。

悉達多金剛仁波切沈穩堅決地不理會虛空金剛叫他一起玩的各種比劃，目不轉睛地看著台上的藏族傳統吉祥舞蹈——而且是雙手合十地觀看。肯定是位不得了的修行人，從前世流續至今的氣質。

祿頂霞仲仁波切則是一直默默地觀看身邊的這一切。生為未來傳揚戒律的接班人，天然具有默然出離的特質。

雖然前世來生是看不到也摸不著，但是我每次看到小孩子們，就會更加確信那些前世習氣延續至今的印記是如此深刻地烙印在我們內心，影響著我們的一舉一動。

Whenever I see young kids with strong inborn characters, it always reminds me of how our habitual patterns from past lives can continue affecting our behaviors and thinking patterns.

Akasha Vajra Rinpoche has always been like a king, since the first time I saw him—that is, a baby could not even utter a word yet acts as a king, centered, decisive, giving clear orders around with charisma and leadership.

To Akasha Vajra Rinpoche’s repeating requests to play, Siddharth Vajra Rinpoche simply shrugged them off, and continued to one-pointedly watch the auspicious dance performance on the stage, even with palms folded together at heart level! He must have been an amazing practitioner.

And Luding Shabdrung Rinpoche, he simply observed all this silently. A good quality for someone born to be a future vinaya holder, I guess.

The continuum…

May we cultivate positive habits to bring forth even greater positive habits for proceeding on the path of benefiting others.
