六字大明咒
六字大明咒為密宗密法的咒語之一,於宋朝由梵僧天息災傳入中土,出自於「彿說大乘莊嚴寶王經」。而西藏人持誦六字🅷大明咒比漢人更早三百多年,其後經由西藏傳入蒙古,繼而由當時的蒙古帝國帶到歐洲,被翻譯成多種語言,成為꧃地球上流傳最廣的咒語。
「唵嘛呢叭咪吽」六字可分拆為四個部份:印度๊教的種子字「唵」;「嘛呢」解為珍寶;「叭咪」解為蓮花;及最後的「吽」。然而依據彿教傳統,因為此六꧟字為彿教真言,每一咒字都蘊含深遠的意義,有相應之功德、六道及六度,不能單以字面詮釋。修行者若持誦、常書寫及觀其文字,便能得功德,清淨業障,獲益無窮。
此翡翠雕牌長寛比例均勻,厚度達8.55🎃毫米,最難得的是整塊都通體翠綠,近乎無瑕疵,而且晶瑩剔透,其原石的質量和份量可見一斑。翡翠兩面右邊各刻有六字真字的其中三字,設計加入中國傳統飾紋,整齊有致,更顯素雅,平實中見韻味。
