Ready to accumulate merits by just listening and rejoicing the legacy of our lineage masters? Yes! It is that simple.
種敦巴尊者本生－義成王子－本集進入尾聲。廣論第29頁提到“尊重繁多”的善慧譯師桑樸瓦，就是此處的不空王子。不空王子與義成王子輾轉多世相伴，在家親兄弟，同門師兄弟，我們常會羨慕他人兄友弟恭，或是擁有好人緣，這個正因如何在心田耕耘呢？千萬不要故事聽過就算了，隨喜、思維、效學，才不會浪費法師殷殷為我們開講祖師傳的心意。

依师 : 大乘善知识
Virtuous teacher Drom-don-ba said: “What is this Guru of Mahayana like? When the guru speaks, the students will be initiated with deep understanding.” It is not merely telling you: “this is the [knowledge] you need!” It is not like that! The Mahayana teacher is capable of resolving all sorts of issues, totally settling them. As for the recognition of the encompassing teachings – the capacity has to be proper quality, sufficient quantity, and perfect knowledge. Therefore, when you practice accordingly later, the systematic order will be unmistaken: what is the immediate benefit and what will the future ultimate effect be like? Thus, between cause and effect, it is totally flawless and the systematic sequence is completely in order. This should be considered as the true virtuous teacher.
那么这个善知识敦巴尊者就说：这个大乘佛法当中的师长，是什么样呢？他呀，那一位师长说的时候，能够发生无量知解。不是简简单单地就是告诉你：“就这个！”不是！他能够各方面问题都了解、都解决，对于认识——质正量圆，这么圆满的认识。那么然后你照着去修行的时候呢，他一定次第不误，眼前得到什么样的利益，将来究竟果位是如何，所以因果之间丝毫不差，次第步骤一点不乱，这个才是真正的善知识。
