| English | Moreover, through being unaware of the difference between taking refuge and making prayers, one might pray the channels, wind-energies, and essence-drops, abiding in one’s body, to afford some kind of protection for oneself and so on. But these are not things in which to place one’s hopes. In brief, the difference between making a prayer and taking refuge lies precisely in the fact that the true object of refuge for beginners is the Dharma itself—the practice of the Dharma within one’s mind. It is crucial to grasp this essential point. To fail to understand that the essence of refuge is a mental pledge, and that, of the supreme Three Jewels, it is the sublime Dharma that is the true refuge for beginners; to fail to understand that refuge means a commitment to implement the teachings leads to a repudiation of the Mantrayana refuge of the Nyingma tradition as mentioned above. This is the result of not knowing the difference between taking refuge and making prayers. Certain people in the Nyingma school, unable to deal with criticisms regarding this question, lose their tempers and start to have doubts regarding their own teachings, and end up by rejecting them. This sort of thing happens simply through a failure to understand the important points mentioned above. |
