In 1992, while presenting at the World Futures Studies Federation course on International Development, I shifted my lecture from the typical rehearsed presentation on factors explaining maldevelopment to a real time unpacking/deconstruction of transportation futures. As I, we, worked through the analysis, alternatives organically emerged. The four levels were: first, the problem or the litany – congestion and pollution.

We understood that the government would take a technical approach of creating flyovers and not the deeper required to rethink centre-periphery relations – to decentralize - to reimagine Bangkok as a walkable and green city. This led to a discussion on not just in

I slide my hand into the crook of your arm, as you open your big brolly wide. We both can stay dry when the spring showers fall, if we dash through the drops, side by side... As spring turns to summer, and autumn turns to winter, we follow a little boy and his grandmother as they take delight in everything the changing seasons have to offer - from jumping in puddles, to tasting sweet ice lollies, to nestling under blankets on a cold, snowy night.But no matter the weather, whatever they do, their joy is in being together, in the small - but momentous - adventures that they share. With vivid illustrations and read-aloud words, this is a tender celebration of grandparent love from the duo behind the bestselling and acclaimed Pick a Pine Tree and Pick a Pumpkin.

★ 蓮師授記的偉大伏藏師秋吉‧林巴於淨見中取出的度母心要， 由祖古．烏金仁波切與楚喜．阿帝仁波切指導開示。 ★ 綠度母心咒：嗡．達磊．嘟達磊．嘟磊．梭哈， 能迅速消除一切障礙及恐懼，喚起最慈悲的力量！ ★ 釋迦牟尼佛在教導度母的經文或續法時提到， 度母猶如三世諸佛之母的化身，她進行著所有的佛行事業， 包括驅除障礙、消除恐懼、並提供有情眾生的一切所需、所願、所求。 ★ 這是一本最完整的度母修持，涵蓋度母的外儀軌、驅除種種恐懼的度母二十一尊內儀軌，還有雙運度母的密修持。 內容簡介： 對許多修行人來說，度母有著啟發人心的樣貌。她總集了女性最受人矚目而重要的特質：曼妙、優雅，以及養育、照顧和保護的能力。除此之外，度母也是一位真正的勇者，能擊敗恐懼和無明。想要以修持度母來利益眾生並證得了悟的修行者，需要存有這種願力並運用它。我們不僅能達到個人的證悟果位，也可幫助生病者，護衛恐懼者，並且平息心的痛苦，而這是一段英勇的旅程。 近來關於度母慈悲智慧的珍貴法教，是由三位重要的伏藏師所傳續的法脈。第一位是十九世紀著名的大師蔣揚．欽哲．汪波、第二位是蓮師授記的偉大伏藏師秋吉．林巴、第三位是佛陀所親自授記的大師蔣貢．康楚．羅卓．泰耶。本書分為三個部分，首先是本論：來自秋吉．林巴（Chokgyur Lingpa, 1829-1870，第一世秋林仁波切）的《三勝法的精要口訣》，此精要口訣是取自度母的心意伏藏《度母甚深精要》；除了本論之外，有兩份開示，是由兩位近代的欽哲、康楚、秋林三傳承持有者，一者為偉大的近代大圓滿上師祖古．烏金（Tulku Urgyen, 1920-1996）仁波切對《三勝法的精要口訣》所說的精髓教言（總論），一者為囊謙（Nangchen）的楚喜．阿帝（Trüshik Adeu）仁波切所給予的較長而非常實用的指導（釋義）。 本論 這是秋吉．林巴於淨見（vision）中看到度母之時，心中出現了這個甚深的佛法伏藏《三勝法的精要口訣》。其殊勝之處，在於它涵蓋三個不同的見地：聲聞乘（Theravada，又稱「上座部」）、大乘、金剛乘，而成為一條緊密無縫的單一道路，讓人可以遵循。這篇簡短的伏藏本文，從如何面對個人生命的簡單方式開始說起，一直談到如何在一生之中證得真正而全然的證悟。 總論 偉大的近代大圓滿上師祖古．烏金（Tulku Urgyen, 1920-1996）仁波切針對《三勝法的
