In order that the public truly understands World Buddhism Association Headquarters and H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, World Buddhism Association Headquarters specially states the following: 1. We at World Buddhism Association Headquarters will assume all legal liability for the veracity of this statement; 2. H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III is a true Buddha who has been recognized as such by leaders, regent dharma kings, and rinpoches of various Buddhist sects all over the world in accordance with the more than 1,000-year-old Buddhist recognition system.
A question was raised by a disciple of Vajrayana on behalf of the candidates attending the Determination by Holy Selection (aka. Zejue): “I attended the Determination by Holy Selection of the Dharma of Yamantaka Vajra this time. I am grateful to all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas and the holy virtuous persons for giving me this opportunity, which enabled me to have the good fortune of seeing the true appearance of Yamantaka Vajra in my current lifetime. However, we just cannot understand the fact that among the 27 candidates attending the Determination by Holy Selection, only two successfully practiced the Dharma of Yamantaka Vajra and manifested the true appearance of Yamantaka Vajra.
‘There are two Dharma visages of Yinhai Shengzun that have been placed here for worship all along. What is strange is, if we now stand at the same distance away to view these two dharma visages of the Shengzun, by just one glance, the dharma visage placed for worship before Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva’s statue appears much larger than the other dharma visage placed for worship on the sidewall! One of the two dharma visages that are identical in size and dimensions becomes larger than the other. But when we measure them with a measuring tape, their dimensions are indeed identical without any difference.’
The four hidden & explicit ways; the annual examination; an art critic’s article; having the crown opened; and other matters
Inquiry 1: What kind of person is qualified to carry out the “four hidden ways” and the “four explicit ways”?
Reply: Only great holy ones, who are at least a Shangzun at the level of Gold Button Level 3, can carry out the four hidden ways. Moreover, the hidden ways can only be applied to a disciple who is very pious and has quite remarkable a practice of cultivation. The situation is that a Shangzun who is at the level of Gold Button Level 3 wants to make this disciple the seed to the transmission of true Buddha Dharma or, in other words, transmit true Buddha Dharma to this disciple.
The Inquiry Center of the World Buddhism Association Headquarters already replied to your inquiry publicly. Now you are asking the same question again. We now reply to you one more time, but we still won’t mention your master’s name. You asked why he said that he had learned the Namo Great Compassionate Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva’s Blessing Dharma even though he had not. That just means that he told lies to deceive people.
Your master, whom you asked about in your inquiry, does not have the true transmission of the Namo Great Compassionate Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva’s Blessing Dharma, nor is he able to administer the Namo Great Compassionate Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva’s Blessing Dharma of true Buddha-dharma transmission. If he practices that dharma, his transmission is from demons and devils. In this world, only H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III has the authority to speak and recognize this matter.
1. Is the Namo Great Compassionate Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva’s Blessing Dharma which Shengjie Rinpoche learned from a true Buddha Dharma transmission? Can we go to attend the Namo Great Compassionate Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva’s Blessing Dharma which he administers?
Answer: The Namo Great Compassionate Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva’s Blessing Dharma which Shengjie Rinpoche learned is from a true Buddha Dharma transmission.
During the recent years, we at the World Buddhism Association Headquarters have been continuously receiving inquiries regarding upright masters and evil masters, asking for replies in this regard. However, WBAH has given replies to such questions many times publicly through announcements. Furthermore, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III also clearly explained many times the distinctions between what is upright and what is evil and between what is true and what is false.
What are the tangible results from the holy test for Dharma Master Zhengda, Shango Chunwa Rinpoche, Longzhou Rinpoche, and Dharma Master Longhui? Which ones of the four major categories, and more specifically, which items did these Dharma masters and rinpoches got tested on to receive their grades? We want to know what their strengths are.
If you are not going to listen to the Dharma discourses given by the Buddha just because your master has erroneous and evil views and understanding, then people like you are completely full of sinful karma, because you have forgot about cultivating yourself and learning from Buddha completely. What does your master not having correct views and understanding have anything to do with your listening to Dharma discourses? The public announcements have once, twice, three times, four times… told you people that you can only learn from the Dharma discourses given by the Buddha and not from the conduct of your master.
