Advice for Offering a Short Tenshuk

供献简短 Tenshuk 的建议

by Tulku Orgyen Tobgyal

乌金督佳仁波切讲授

Question: Rinpoche, how do we do a tenshuk ceremony slightly simpler than following Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo’s tenshuk ceremony manual called “Sweet Droplets of Amrita from the Mouths of Siddhas”?¹¹⁹

问：仁波切，若想举行比依蒋扬钦哲旺波《成就者口中甘露甜滴》这一 Tenshuk 仪式手册[119]稍简略的 Tenshuk 仪式，该如何做？

Do the Chimé Phakmé Nyingtik, and at the point where you all enjoy the tsok, the lama to whom you wish to offer the tenshuk should join you. As an offering, ask him to sit on the throne, then immediately meditate on Amitayus. If you like, you can do the self-visualization and descent of blessings mentioned in the text, but you don’t have to. Do the practice for summoning longevity,¹²⁰ offer the long-life vase, pills and nectar, offer the mandala and then the supports of enlightened body, speech, mind, qualities and activities and finally the long-life prayers. This is how you practise.

修无死圣母心髓，到大家受用会供时，请你们希望向其供献 Tenshuk 的上师加入。作为供养，请他登座，随即观修无量寿佛。若愿意，可以修文本所说的自生与降加持，但不是必须。修招寿法[120]，供长寿瓶、长寿丸与甘露，供曼荼罗，然后供觉悟身、语、意、功德与事业的所依，最后念长寿祈祷文。就是这样修持。

Should you want an even shorter practice, follow the Sutrayana approach to tenshuk. Invite the lama and the moment he sits on the throne, offer a mandala and representations of enlightened body, speech and mind—omitting the offerings of enlightened qualities and activities—and recite the long-life prayers. These days, this is how short tenshuks are offered to His Holiness Dalai Lama and other great masters.

若想更简短，就依经乘方式作 Tenshuk。迎请上师，他一登座，即供曼荼罗与觉悟身语意的表征，略去觉悟功德与事业的供养，再念长寿祈祷文。如今向达赖喇嘛尊者及其他大上师供献简短 Tenshuk，就是这样做的。

For a really short long-life ceremony, once the lama is sitting on the throne you should present the seven-branch offering from The King of Aspiration Prayers: Samantabhadra’s “Aspiration to Good Actions”,¹²¹ then offer the mandala, representations of enlightened body, speech and mind and long-life prayers. It’s simple enough. I don’t need to keep going on and on about it.

若要真正简短的长寿仪式，上师登座后，就献上《愿王：普贤菩萨〈普贤行愿品〉》[121]中的七支供，然后供曼荼罗、觉悟身语意表征，并念长寿祈祷文。已经够简单了，无须我再反复说个不停。

Actually, the text Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo composed will guide you through the long-life ceremony used for important lamas as well as for other people. In the text, Khyentse Wangpo indicates how to do a long and elaborate practice, a medium-length ceremony and a short one. He also tells you how to do it with or without a sundok. It’s all there in the practice in the small print. You’re asking me all these questions, but you haven’t yet looked at the text! The other questions you ask don’t make any sense at all. This one for example, “Can you conduct the ceremony without a vajra master?” What can I tell you? All these activities must be led by a vajra master.

实际上，蒋扬钦哲旺波撰写的文本，既指导为重要上师举行长寿仪式，也指导为其他人举行。文本中，钦哲旺波说明了如何修漫长广大的仪式、中等长度的仪式与简短仪式，也说明有 Sundok 或无 Sundok 时如何做。这一切都在修法的小字说明里。你们问我这些问题，却还没有看文本！另外那些问题，根本没有道理。例如：“没有金刚上师，可以举行仪式吗？”我能说什么呢？这些事业全都必须由金刚上师主持。
