We know teachers are greatest
in the world. They are everything to us. I quote Dzongkha proverb “ཕ་བླ་མ་མེད་པའི་གོ་རིལ་ནང། བུ་སངས་རྒྱས་རྒྱས་པའི་མིང་ཡང་མེད། བཀལ་པ་སྟོང་གི་སངས་རྒྱས་ཀྱང། བླ་མ་བདག་ལ་བསྟོན་ནས་འབྱུང།” I unquote. It state that there won’t be
Buddha if there is no teacher. All Buddha who attain nirvana are because of
their teacher. Knowing the statement, we have to pay our respect to all the
teacher of three times, past, present and future as a gratitude. Gratitude
doesn’t mean by giving of something but with your pure heart praying for their long
and prosperous life mean a lot.
Pay your gratitude to all teachers
of three time. The reason for our respect as per Dzongkha proverb “ཚིག་གཅིག་བསྟོན་པའི་སློབ་དཔོན་ལ། སློབ་དཔོན་ཏག་ཏུ་མ་འཇལ་ན། ཁྱི་སྐྱེ་བ་ལྔ་བརྒྱ་ལན། མད་ཆ་ཅན་དུ་སྐྱེ་བར་འབྱུར།” I unquote.
It emphasis that if we fail to pay our gratitude to our teachers, we will
rebirth as dog in next life for 500 times. We may rebirth as human after 500
times of being born as dog but it is believe we will born with missing sense of
organs.
With above two quote, it
touches the bottom of my heart sensing the greatest of teachers.
Having read above
sentences, let us pay our pure gratitude for their selfless dedication and commitment
in their duty.
Happy Teacher’s Day. Have a
long life.
