Los Bodhisattvas Nunca Se Van (Un tributo al Rev. Greg)


En homenaje al "Reverendo Greg Dilley, bodhisattva que ha partido inesperadamente. Fué un acucioso estudiante y serio expositor del Sagrado Dharma del Sutra del Loto en su blog "Reverend Greg, Confessions of a Nichiren Buddhist Ninja" en Fraught with Peril.com, sitio que según entiendo fué fundado por él y que suelo visitar con mucha frecuencia. Como Hermano de Fé de la misma escuela Buddhista Nichirén e instructor en retiro de Artes Marciales (Shaolin Ying Chao Pai), me he sentido movido a dedicar las siguentes líneas en su honor.

Al Reverendo Greg
Cuando un Bodhisattva entra en la Luz Serena,
en todos los cielos hay regocijo,
brotan las Flores Mándara
y una lluvia de pétalos cae sobre el mundo Saha.

Las Apsara' danzan con especial gracia,
acompañadas por la sagrada música de los Gándharva'.
Mientras, los Deva' cantan a coro loas al Dharma
extasiados por el acontecimiento,
Pues todos los seres sensibles del Sámsara son salvados
cuando un Bodhisattva entra en Nirvana.
Una onda de luz, como millones de rayos
saliendo por cada uno de sus poros,
brota del corazón del Eterno Buddha,
llevando la buena nueva a cada rincón del universo,
Todos los Buddhas se unen
para alabar al unisono al recién llegado,
Pues todos los seres sensibles del Sámsara son salvados
cuando un Bodhisattva entra en Nirvana.
Pero en verdad,
el bodhisattva que se ha ido
no tiene a donde ir,
siempre está aquí, como el Buddha
que no tiene origen ni se extingue
que Así Llega y Así Se Ha Ido,
Ido, Ido, pero siempre está Aquí.
Y por eso el bodhisattva vuelve,
y siempre estará aquí,
siempre.
Na Mu Myo Ho Ren Gue Kyo!

The Bodhisattvas Never Leave Us
As a tribute to "Reverend Greg Dilley , Bodhisattva who has unexpectedly gone, and he was a serious student and fine writer about Sacred Dharma of The Lotus Sutra in his blog "Reverend Greg, Confessions of a Nichiren Buddhist Ninja" at Fraught with Peril.com, a site founded by him (as I think) and I use to visit very often.
It was also an accomplished martial arts instructor, specifically Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu.
As Brother in Faith by the same Nichiren Buddhist school and as retired instructor of Martial Arts (Shaolin Chao Ying Pai), I felt moved to dedicate the following lines in his honor.

To Reverend Greg
When a Bodhisattva enters the Still Light ,
all in the heavens are rejoicing,
Flowers Mandara blooming
and a rain of petals falls on the Saha World.
The Apsaras dance with special grace,
accompanied by sacred music of Gándharvas.
Meanwhile, choirs of Devas sing loas to the Dharma
entering in extasis because the event,
Since all sentient beings from Samsara are saved
when a Bodhisattva enters Nirvana.
A light wave, like millions of rays
leaving each of their pores,
springs from the heart of the Eternal Buddha,
bringing the good news to every corner of the universe,
All Buddhas unite
for praise in unison for The Newcomer,
Since all sentient beings from Samsara are saved
when a Bodhisattva enters Nirvana.
But in truth,
the Bodhisattva who has gone
has not where to go,
He stays always here, as the Buddha
which has no source or extinguishes
So who arrives and has gone,
gone, gone, but always stays here.
And the Bodhisattva returns once again,
and always stays here,
forever.
