Venerable Dhammadipa:
Venerable Dhammadipa was born in Czechoslovakia
in 1949. Venerable speaks many languages, reads
& translates Buddhist texts from Pali &
Sanskrit.
Ordinations in three traditions of Buddhism Zen,
Theravada & Mahayana show the Venerable’s
direction of meditation practice & consistent
study. In 1996, Venerable went to Myanmar to
practice meditation with Venerable Pa Auk
Sayadaw, and was recognized by the Sayadaw to be
first of the Sayadaw's Western disciples
qualified to teach meditation.
In recent years, Venerable has worked on the
Jetavan Sakarwadi project in India to help the
Sakarwadi Buddhist community. Venerable also
established the Dhammadipa Foundation to
establish Buddhist Education Center “Shanta
Vana” in the Czech Republic.
性空長老,捷克人,1949年出生於布拉格,是一位學行兼備的禪修老師和精研南北傳經論的佛教學者。法師亦深具語言天份,除了母語捷克文之外,還精通梵文及巴利文,並且廣通十幾種語言,能讀能說,溝通無礙。
1986年,長老前往日本,隨原田禪師出家修習曹洞宗,
法名性空。1987年,於斯里蘭卡依止那難拉瑪大長老(Nanarama
Mahathera)受南傳出家戒,法名Dhammadipa。1989年於洛杉磯西來寺受漢傳三壇大戒,之後於台灣佛光山、中華佛研所擔任客座講師並開始於歐亞各地弘法。1996年赴緬甸親近當代禪修大德帕奧禪師(Pa
Auk Sayadaw)
修習止觀禪法,甚得器重,為禪師最優秀的弟子之一,並被授意公開教導帕奧禪法。
長老認為學習佛法戒、定、智都很重要。特別強調『定』的修持。如果沒
有定,無法看清楚因緣法,就沒有辦法開展智慧,去除迷惑。
近年來,長老致力於印度的Jetavan Sakarwadi
project,幫助Sakarwadi
佛教社區提升教育、醫療及整體生活水準,又成立並主持法島基金會(Dhammadipa
Foundation),在捷克建立寂靜禪堂(Shanta
Vana),以弘揚禪法,提供禪修者一個良好的修行環境。
