In the midst of majestic mountains and mysterious temples, a special story is told to the world. This is the story of the 6th ** Cangyang Gyatso, a high monk who recites sutras during the day and becomes a romantic man at night. His life is like an epic, full of contradictions and struggles, entanglements between the sacred and the profane.
In a small village at the foot of Mount Nala in the southern part of the country, a certain day in 1684 became the starting point of a turning point in the fate of Cangyang Gyatso.
A group of Gelug monks emerged in the village, and they were tasked with finding a new ** and held a ceremony. The villagers watched and witnessed the moment when a young child was chosen as the reincarnated spirit child.
More than ten years later, Jimei Dorjee Xiejia Gongqin has grown into a handsome young man, living an ordinary and sweet farming life.
In the verdant fields of the south, the young Jigme Dorjee Xiega Gungchen ploughs and grazes with his beloved girl. The sun shines on their shoulders, as if crowning their love.
They toiled in the fields and spent the afternoon sitting in the shade of a tree sharing a simple lunch. Their laughter, like the breeze in the valley, was soft and pleasant.
Did you know?Jimei Dorjee Xiejia Gung Chin said softly to his beloved girl, "I hope that such days can last forever." ”
The girl smiled softly back: "Me too, I wish I could watch this field with you every day." ”
However, just as this peaceful day was about to become eternal, the sound of the horns of the honor guard was heard in the distance, gradually amplifying until it shook the entire village.
A team of richly decorated honor guards drove into the village and stopped at the door of Jimei Dorjee Xiega Gunchen.
Jimei Dorjee Xiega Gungchen and his girl watched in amazement. An inexplicable premonition welled up in his heart.
When the leader of the honor guard walked up to him and announced to him the astonishing news that he had been elected the sixth lama.
He turned his head to look at the girl beside him, his eyes full of mixed emotions. He whispered, "It seems that fate is going to take me to a distant place. ”
The girl's eyes welled up with tears, and she asked softly, "What about our fields, our dreams?"”
Jimei Dorjee Xiega Gung Chin shook her hand and said affectionately, "No matter where I am, my heart will always be connected to you and this land. ”
Bidding farewell to his beloved girl and his hometown, Jimei Dorjee Xiega Gungchen embarked on a journey to the Potala Palace, behind which was his irreversible youth and innocent love. Although his heart was full of reluctance, he knew that this was the path of fate that he could not change.
In Langkazi County, Jimei Dorjee Xiega Gung Chin received the ceremony of shaving his hair and receiving the novice ordination, was given a new name - Lobsang Rinchen Cangyang Gyatso, and held an enthronement ceremony at the Potala Palace in Lhasa on October 25, 1697, officially becoming the Sixth ** Lama.
But Cangyang Gyatso only had endless sorrow in his heart, because none of this was a choice he had made willingly.
Cangyang Gyatso's daily life began to be tightly controlled. Since he had never formally accepted the teachings of the Gelug school, every day he was required to immerse himself in the intricacies of Buddhist Xi scriptures, surrounded by a group of serious monks whose eyes were like sharp blades, watching his every move. His heart was tightly locked by invisible chains.
He often stares at **, and there is only a desire for freedom in his heart.
That night, Cangyang Gyatso took advantage of the darkness and the negligence of the monks to sneak out of the palace. He wandered the streets of Lhasa, feeling the long-lost freedom and the hustle and bustle of ordinary people.
However, this brief escape was soon discovered, and Changyang Gyatso's beloved personal lama was severely punished for it.
When he learned the news, his heart was filled with guilt and pain. "I hurt you. Cangyang Gyatso meditated in his heart.
He returned to the silent hall and faced the dense ** again. But his heart had already flown out of the walls, wandering in that distant world of freedom.
Although his body was imprisoned within the palace walls, his mind and soul flew like an eagle in the wind, crossing all boundaries.
In his poems, the theme of freedom flows like a clear stream, flowing in every word, telling his endless desire for freedom.
Despite living in constraints, Cangyang Gyatso's spirit of rebellion has never been extinguished. His heart always retained the Nyingma teachings of freedom and the liberation of humanity. He could not accept the strict precepts of the Gelug sect and the control of his life.
So, he began to sneak out of the palace at night, blend into the streets and alleys of Lhasa, and experience the life of an ordinary person.
Dressed in ordinary clothes, wigs and hats, Cangyang Gyatso transformed into Dangsang Wangpo and walked into the bustling night of Lhasa.
The streets are brightly lit and the crowd is bustling, completely different from the silence and solitude in the palace.
Here, he is not a lama, just an ordinary person looking for fun.
He walked into a wine shop, and the smell of wine was full of people. Cangyang Gyatso sat down in a corner and ordered a pot of barley wine.
He watched the dancers on stage dance lightly, and the graceful dancing seemed to take him into another world.
The dancers' dresses rotate with the **, and the streamers paint beautiful patterns in the air.
This barley wine is really good. He told his friends, even though they didn't know his true identity.
Yes, Lhasa's wine and dance are the best. Friends responded, and they raised their glasses and soaked up this lively and simple evening.
Cangyang Gyatso's smile was particularly bright in the wine shop, and he seemed to have regained his long-lost happiness and ease. Here, he can temporarily forget the shackles of his identity and enjoy the fireworks of the world. His heart seemed to dance with ** and dance, forgetting all his troubles and sorrows.
However, as the night deepened, Cangyang Gyatso had to leave in a hurry and return to his golden cage, the Potala Palace. On the way back, his heart was full of nostalgia for a free life and a vision for the future.
He knew that tomorrow night he would be a Tamsang Wangpo again, and continue to find his own happiness and freedom.
In the night of Lhasa, Cangyang Gyatso shuttled freely between the markets as Dangsang Wangpo. During these nightly adventures, he meets Maggie Ami, a beautiful and mysterious woman.
In a lively liquor shop, her dancing attracted the attention of Cangyang Gyatso. Her every movement was filled with grace and passion that made his heart beat faster.
The two soon fell in love passionately, having a tryst every night, sometimes with a nightly tryst, and sometimes even spending the night at Maji Ami's house, only to hurry back to the Potala Palace at dawn.
However, this secret love affair did not last long. One day at dawn, when Changyang Gyatso hurriedly left Maji Ami's home and returned to the Potala Palace, his whereabouts were discovered by a monk.
The love affair was soon revealed, and Changyang Gyatso's personal lama was severely punished and even executed.
Cangyang Gyatso himself was also placed under stricter scrutiny.
In the opulent halls of the Potala Palace, Cangyang Gyatso's life was bound by strict political and religious rules. Although he was in the midst of glory and glory, he felt more of a loss of freedom and a sense of powerlessness to be manipulated. As the Sixth Lama, he was not only the leader of religion, but also a pawn in the political struggle.
However, Cangyang Gyatso's heart is full of contradictions and struggles. He is well aware of the importance of being a **, but at the same time, he is also eager to be able to pursue his true feelings and desires in life. In the silence of the Potala Palace, his soul suffered, and his poetry became the only way to pour out his heart.
Cangyang Gyatso was embroiled in the political struggles of the court, and his life was full of contradictions and struggles. Although he was in a high position, his inner loneliness and emotional torture made him miserable. After the loss of his beloved, his life gradually came to an end.
Before Cangyang Gyatso's life journey came to an end, the political landscape of ** experienced violent upheaval. At the heart of this history is the conflict between Sangyel Gyatso and the head of the Hoshute tribe, a power struggle that began during the reign of the Fifth Emperor.
The 5th ** established a huge regime with the support of the Mongol and Shute tribes, but this also laid hidden dangers for the future, especially the long-term stationing of the Heshute tribes in **, which formed a huge deterrent to the Gelugpa.
With the death of the Fifth Emperor, the contradiction between Sangyel Gyatso as the Tibetan king and the Heshute tribe became increasingly intensified, especially after the new chief, Razang Khan, came to power, and the contradiction became acute.
Sangyel Gyatso tried to eliminate his political opponents by assassinating Razang Khan, but the failure of the plan angered Razang Khan. Razang Khan then led the Mongol army into battle with Sangyel Gyatso's Tibetan army, and eventually killed Sangyel Gyatso.
Razang Khan then turned his attention to Cangyang Gyatso in an attempt to further consolidate his power.
In 1705, Razang Khan reported to the Qing Dynasty about Sangyel Gyatso's rebellion. When the Kangxi Emperor learned that Sangyel Gyatso had died, he thought the matter was closed.
However, Razang Khan had a suspicious heart and once again reported to the Qing court, claiming that Cangyang Gyatso was addicted to alcohol and neglecting religious affairs, and asked Kangxi to depose Cangyang Gyatso.
In the face of these accusations, the Kangxi Emperor finally chose to compromise, abolished Cangyang Gyatso's name of **, and ordered him to be escorted to the capital. The monks of the Potala Palace tried to hide Cangyang Gyatso, but in order to prevent their lives from being threatened, he eventually chose to turn himself in.
In 1706, on his way to the capital, Cangyang Gyatso died near Qinghai Lake at the age of 23. There is controversy about the cause of his death: one says that he died in real, and the other is that he was let go by his kind escorts, thus gaining the freedom he had been seeking.
Cangyang Gyatso's life is legendary. From the happy serf at the foot of the mountain, to the ** who dominates the snowy region, to the chic lover at night, he has been pursuing love and freedom all his life. However, the cruelty of the times and the whirlpool of politics eventually made him a victim, putting heavy shackles on his free and uninhibited spirit, limiting the infinite possibilities of his life.
