Headquarters Announcements Published in 2018

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.

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.

You come to make inquiries as soon as the announcements were made by the Inquiry Center of the World Buddhism Association Headquarters. The Headquarters blesses you, because you have finally come to the realization to pursue the correct views and understanding. If you should fall prey to deceit by evil people, get blinded by their lies, and you keep in yourself the bewilderment without any answer, then you would deserve to be cheated for your whole life and end in misery.

The difference in the wonderful powers of empowerment between the Holy Fire Offering Buddha Dharma and the Regular Fire Offering Buddha Dharma is very huge, as huge as the difference between the heaven and earth or between a big mountain and a small rock. It is very difficult to encounter the Holy Fire Offering in the whole world.
