昨晚做了一个好梦。虽然明知梦境本为幻化，但作为一个凡夫，心里仍然很高兴。一直犹豫着是否把梦境写下来，最终写下来的念头还是占了上风。

这是我离开成都后，第三次梦见麦彭仁波切。

第一次是在医院，在梦中，我得到了《辨法法性论注疏》的传讲。第二次也是在医院，我获得了《辨中边论》、《智者入门》的传承。醒来之后，生起了大慢心，不可抑制地想将自己所得到的传承，及时地为别人传讲、翻译。

* h( c6 v0 U/ H/ z  t9 _# dThe first dream happened when I was in the hospital. In it, I received a transmission to teach the Commentaries on Distinguishing Dharma and Dharmata. The second time, which was also during my hospitalization, I was given the transmission of Distinguishing the Middle and the Extremes and the Gateway to Knowledge. Upon waking up, I was so proud of myself and could barely hold back my strong urge to immediately translate or teach others the transmissions that I had just received.

昨晚，麦彭仁波切连续以三个人的形象出现。在见其中最后一位时，心里很清楚地感觉到是麦彭仁波切的幻化。他的形象像一位四十多岁的康巴在家人，头发黝黑发亮，眼睛炯炯发光，眉毛浓黑，脸膛黑里透红，牙齿洁白如雪，身穿蓝色藏袍，很高兴地躺在我床上的左边……令我生起强烈的恭敬心，感觉他是诸佛菩萨的智慧身。他看起来平易近人，我也就平时的一些问题向他请教……醒来之后，仍感觉到他的余温，不敢去坐刚才他坐过的地方。
Last night, Mipham Rinpoche appeared as three different persons in turn. When the last one came, I clearly sensed that the emanation must be Mipham Rinpoche. He looked like a Kham layman in his 40s, with hair gleaming black and eyes brimming with vigor. He had thick dark eyebrows and snow-white teeth; his tanned face had a rosy tint. Wearing blue Tibetan brocade, he pleasantly settled to the left side of my bed. A deep sense of reverence arose in my heart and I felt that he is the wisdom embodiment of all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. He seemed amicable, and I sought his advice on the questions I always had…. When I woke up, I could still feel the warmth of his body, and I dared not touch the place where he had been moments ago.

/ |/ ~9 z; t: }1 a  j8 g有人认为把梦讲出来不好，前大德智悲光尊者说：“好梦说出以后，就再也不会显现了。”法王上师也说：“老虎可以跳得很远，青蛙是不能效仿的。”可见把梦说出来不太好。不过，不管怎么现在已经说出去了。



4 s5 L' K; K& SSome people disapprove of talking about dreams. Rigdzin Jigme Lingpa once said: “A good dream, after being disclosed, will never come back again.” Our revered H.H. Jigme Phuntsok Rinpoche also taught: “A tiger can leap quite far, but a frog just cannot follow suit.” It seems that talking about one’s dreams is not a good idea. Anyway, now I have said it, and that’s it.

但一直困扰着我，使我百思不得其解的是，尽管我多年来一直诚心祈祷，不知无垢光尊者为何始终没有在我的梦中显现？

Yet what puzzles me still is that I have prayed most earnestly to the Omniscient Longchen Rabjam for many years, yet he has never appeared in any of my dreams. Why? I have no answer!

以上所提及的，只是我偶尔做的好梦，如果将所有的恶梦都记录下来的话，那就成了又臭又长的裹脚了。

Here, I am only describing a good dream that came to me just once in a blue moon. Should I recount all my bad dreams, they would be nothing but long filthy foot wraps.
