Choying Drolma
琼英·卓玛,Choying Drolma,来自尼泊尔,是一个比丘尼。全名 Ani Choying Drolma,出生于1971年。 阿·琼英卓玛觉姆被世界发现,和一个美国的吉他手有关。 这个吉他手叫做Steve Tibbetts(斯蒂芬·泰伯特)。他在93年的时候,来到尼泊尔采风。实际上,他为了扩展吉他的表现力,已经多次来到这些异域。他曾经在印度尼西亚,被巴厘人激烈的双鼓技法所迷住。印度、南亚、尼泊尔和中国西藏这些富有神秘气质,而又接近灵性沟通的地域,让他长久流连忘返。 在尼泊尔的时候,斯蒂芬总是住在寺院里,或者在庙宇的附近歇脚。晨锺暮鼓,一朝一夕,他在其中,在四周,感受着,聆听着。直到有一天,他来到了一个寺院,遇见了Nagi(寺院名)的一些女尼们在殿堂做功课,她们纯净而不假雕琢的合唱声音在高原下如水面波纹一般自如泛开,斯蒂芬完全被震慑住。 by Craig Harris The founder of the Arya Tara School, the first school in Nepal to offer traditional Buddhist and secular studies for Buddhist nuns, in 2000, Ani Choying Drolma is known for her command of ancient Tibetan Buddhist chants and songs.
