Searching for the Lotus-Born Master (Ⅱ)

Tang dynasty records tell how people in Oddiyana recited Mantra. This surprised Tang dynasty monk Xuanzang, because at that time, Mantra was seldom used among Buddhists in China. Mantra actually has Hindu origins. One of our expeditions traveled in India to try to understand the science of Mantra. It was discovered that Mantra is a vibrational frequency. Since the Lotus-Born Master came from Oddiyana, we can understand how Mantra become such an important part of Tibetan Buddhism.

唐朝記錄了烏仗那國(guó)人是如何念誦密咒的。這讓唐朝的玄奘法師感到驚訝，因?yàn)槟菚r(shí)中國(guó)的佛教徒很少使用密咒。實(shí)際上咒語源自印度教。我們其中一支探險(xiǎn)隊(duì)去了印度，試圖理解蘊(yùn)藏在咒語中的科學(xué)。經(jīng)發(fā)現(xiàn)，咒語其實(shí)是一種震動(dòng)頻率。因?yàn)樯徎ㄉ笫縼碜詾跽棠菄?guó)，我們可以理解為何密咒會(huì)成為藏傳佛教的一個(gè)重要部分。

There is a science to the use of Mantra. If we understand it in terms of physics, sound is energy. And according to the mass energy formula introduced by Einstein, we are all made of energy. Because sound is also energy, our energy mass will be affected by the vibrational frequency of sound. Sound can have many effects on bodies and substances, from changing the mood of elements. The right sound can benefit us, even can heal the body.

使用咒語有一門科學(xué)。如果我們從物理學(xué)的角度來理解，聲音就是能量。根據(jù)愛因斯坦提出的質(zhì)能關(guān)系公式，我們都是由能量構(gòu)成的。因?yàn)槁曇粢彩悄芰浚晕覀兊馁|(zhì)能會(huì)受到聲音振動(dòng)頻率的影響。聲音通過改變?cè)氐臓顟B(tài)，會(huì)對(duì)我們的身體及物質(zhì)造成多種影響。相應(yīng)地，聲音也可以使我們?cè)谇榫w上受益，甚至治療我們的身體。
