【不离】法王如意宝：活佛也分好几种
活佛也分好几种
There Are Many Types of Tulkus
现在，有些普通人转眼就变成了大活佛，怎么会有这种情况呢？
Nowadays, sometimes ordinary people become great tulkus overnight. How can this be?
请问这些人：“你是否真是某位高僧大德的转世？”
Please ask these people, “Are you truly the reincarnation of an eminent monk or master?”
如果是，那别人认定你是活佛也理所当然，
If they are, then it is perfectly understandable that they are recognized as tulkus.
但若自己明知道不是，却道貌岸然地欺骗众生，那绝对是破了大妄语戒。
If, however, they clearly know that they are not but continue to deceive living beings sanctimoniously, then they have definitely broken the precept against major lies.
就像在古印度，假如没有证得阿罗汉果，自己是没资格坐在花黄垫子上的。
In ancient India, for example, until practitioners had attained the realization of an arhat, they were not permitted to sit on a yellow floral cushion.
现在动不动就听说这个是活佛、那个是活佛，
These days, we frequently hear that this or that person is a tulku.
其实，这些活佛也有真有假。
The truth is, there are genuine ones and fake ones among these tulkus.
有些人认定一些假活佛，要么是希望为他的亲友拉些关系，要么是为了追求地位，
People acknowledge fake tulkus either because they hope to exploit the connection for their family and friends or to gain social status.
甚至还有些寺院认定活佛，就是为了追求名利等世间八法。
Even some monasteries recognize tulkus just to pursue fame, fortune, and the rest of the eight worldly dharmas.
这些人自己本来没什么修行，但被冠以“活佛”的头衔后，就自以为是，完全不像一个修行人。
These so-called tulkus have little practice experience, but after their title is bestowed, they become self-righteous and do not behave like practitioners at all.
相反，有些堪布明明是活佛转世，自己却从不承认，这样韬光养晦就非常好。
In contrast, some khenpos clearly are reincarnations of tulkus, but they never admit it. Adopting a low profile in this way is very good.
其实，活佛也分好几种：
In fact, tulkus are divided into several types:
一 有些高僧大德在圆寂之前，对自己的后世作加持，
1. Before dying, sometimes eminent monks and masters give blessings to their future rebirth.
即通过授记或梦兆的方式，加持一个本不是他转世的人，成为他的假名活佛。
Through prophecies or dream omens, they bless someone who is not actually their reincarnation to be their nominal tulku.
但这并不是真正意义上的活佛。
But this is not a tulku in the true sense.
二、有些人本不是活佛，但为了利益众生或一些甚深密意，会以某种方式被认定为活佛。
2. Some people are not tulkus, but to benefit beings or for other hidden purposes, they are recognized as tulkus through certain methods.
三、还有在中阴转为道用的一些活佛。
3. There are also some tulkus who adopted it as the path during the bardo.
四、有些是着了魔的活佛。
4. Some tulkus are under the influence of Mara.
比如前世杀害上师的那个魔，伪装成上师的形象，
For instance, a demon who killed a teacher in a former life takes the form of the teacher,
然后直接变成某人或加持某人说：这就是上师转世的活佛。
then directly changes into someone, or blesses someone and says, “This is the reincarnated tulku of our teacher.”
……
总之，不是活佛的人，最好别把自己装扮成活佛。
In short, it is best that someone who is not a tulku does not masquerade as one.
假如你真有功德，谁也轻视不了你，
If you are truly virtuous, no one will belittle you.
但倘若你认为装得像一点，便会变成活佛，那就有点过分了！
But if you believe that by just mimicking well you can really become a tulku, that is taking it too far!
