聯合國際世界佛教總部公告

(公告字第20160113)

莫知教尊說:「竟然有人寫成文字冒稱自己是了不起的上師,要弟子每天唸誦,簡直不知羞恥!我的師兄旺扎上尊跟我一樣,都是藏傳活佛,之前唸四皈依,現在改行三皈依了。」這兩位大聖者,為什麼要改四皈依而行三皈依呢?其實凡是說三皈依不完整的人,一定是佛教的外行,或者就是騙子,除非祂是如觀音菩薩、文殊菩薩之類巨聖德,最正規的皈依就是三皈依,而不是祖師們後來添加多一條的「皈依師」。我們佛教在這個世界上的教主是釋迦牟尼佛,三皈依是釋迦牟尼佛制定的,無論他是再大的祖師,都在釋迦牟尼佛之下,今天可以斷言保證,說三皈依不完整的人,絕對不是金釦聖德,金釦聖德不會說這樣罪惡的話,不相信你就來電佛教總部諮詢他的段位級別,要明白,皈依是皈依的三寶佛、法、僧,而不是上師,因為上師必然有正和邪兩類,至於密宗加進了「南無咕嚕貝」,當然如果是大聖者之師也是可以的,但密宗講究的依師成就,利用《上師五十法頌》強行控制弟子尊師第一,這個是有嚴重問題的,你思考過嗎?你的那位皈依師是第一大聖德嗎?是菩薩嗎?五明在哪裡?有佛陀大嗎?排在佛陀前面難道無罪嗎?更可怕的是,如果你的上師不是聖德,而是一位騙子或妖孽之師,你依師成就,那必然成為騙子或妖孽了!!!我們在事實中看到,只要是聖者上師,就絕不會稱自己是了不起的上師,凡是強行規定弟子尊敬他(她)的人,沒有一個是好東西,如果是真正的聖德,會下文強行弟子尊敬他嗎?會在乎弟子對他不好嗎?現在世界上打著傳承大招牌的邪師、騙子師遍地都是,這麼簡單的理你為什麼不明白?當然,如果你依止的是如觀音菩薩、文殊菩薩、蓮花生大師、馬爾巴大師、宗喀巴大師、吉美林巴大師這樣的上師,那祂們規定尊重依止祂們成就是對的,因為祂們弘揚的都是釋迦牟尼佛教法,儘管如此,祂們頭上頂的也是多杰羌佛、釋迦牟尼佛,懂了嗎?這世界只有「佛教徒」,從來沒有聽說過「師教徒」,難道不是嗎?其實凡是佛菩薩都不會考慮眾生是否誹謗自己或讚譽自己,不會要弟子必須尊敬祂,而總是以慚愧自居,利益他人,南無第三世多杰羌佛就是活生生的實例。小心點哦!不要被那些膽大包天連釋迦牟尼佛制定的皈依三寶都敢破壞的人妖們,把你給騙了,讓你去當「師教徒」妖孽子孫,你現在皈依的那一位上師,考上的是幾段呢?是金釦聖德嗎?你應該看一下千年難見的錄相,也許被我的拙火把他燒垮架、猖狂逃命的就是你的皈依師吧!就算那場法會沒有他的影子,但是他考上的段位會說話,矇混不過關的!

第三世多杰羌佛辦公室(第三號公告)


第三世多杰羌佛辦公室(第三號公告)

近來接到消息,一些仁波且或法師及聞法點以“恭敬佛法”的名義,強行向前來恭聞佛陀宣說法音的行人收取500元一次或數目不等的“聞法費”,第三世多杰羌佛辦公室深感震驚,認為這是欺騙行為 ,為此特公告如下:
第一, 第三世多杰羌佛在法音中已經多次明確開示:佛法是拿來解脫眾生苦厄的,而不是用來剝削眾生的。任何人只要有學習佛法、從善遠惡、利益眾生、求解脫的意願,我們都應盡量滿足,包括犧牲我自己的利益,也要盡力幫他人得到幸福快樂,更不應該論其富貴貧賤。
第二, 行人對佛法的恭敬是應該的,每個人發心建立聞法點或者供養、護持某一個仁波且、法師、聞法點,那是他自愿的發心,這是凈業的愿力和福報功德,任何人不能硬性規定,施以黑業的壓力,強行收錢,因為這不是修行人利眾為目的的行為,而是罪業的舉動。如果有人以任何方式規定聞法的弟子必須交錢才能聞法,否則不得聞法,這等于是將佛陀的法音變相地出售,這是邪惡行為,是以金錢對佛法的褻瀆和侮辱,已經背離了佛陀的教導。因為有的人本來就生活困難,有財富的人不但不能向他們收錢,反而還應該拿錢來幫助他。佛堂、聞法點不應該以聞法來逼他們交錢,而是應該資助他們,千萬不要失掉自他交換菩提心的行愿。
第三, 第三世多杰羌佛早已公開宣布不接受供養,連弟子們的直接供養都沒有接受,也沒有接受過仁波且、法師或聞法點轉來的供養,不但不接受供養,而且還把自己賣畫的錢拿來捐贈給寺廟、救助貧苦和災民。
第四, 第三世多杰羌佛辦公室也沒有接受過任何的供養,更不會支持規定交錢才能聞法等欺騙大眾、褻瀆佛法的行為。
特此公告。

觀世音菩薩大悲加持法會 ——殊勝無比 現場感應追記 (十八)


觀世音菩薩大悲加持法會 ——殊勝無比 現場感應追記 (十八)

2016年10月1日在旧金山,我和丈夫及孩子有幸参加了观世音菩萨大悲加持法会。法会开始时,持诵咒语没多久我就哭了,我想忍住不要哭,可是我无法控制自己还是继续哭。当修法不到一分钟的时候,我觉得两腿开始发软,就好像站了很久,有点摇摇晃晃,我自己知道才刚站了一会儿,心想怎么会这样,于是我告诉自己要站好,但是还是继续摇晃,手也开始晃动,动作越来越大,手臂竟然甩了起来。然后拼命拍打我的腰,又快又重,因为我有腰椎尖盘突出,痛有十几年了,要经常吃止痛药,但是自从皈依后,我就好了很多。我不知道拍打了多长时间,突然自己倒下了,但是有一个声音告诉我,要我站起来,于是我又站起来。

起来后又开始晃动,但是这次却拍打自己的肩膀及后背,我有颈椎病,己经两年了,拍打后背的时候,感觉自己的手很长很长,挥得很高,拍得又快又重,声音很响,好舒服好舒服,好感动,不知不觉又倒地上了,这次感觉有人扶着我的,感谢护法同学的帮助,最后当法师说停的时候,一下子我的四肢就完全放松,很轻松很舒服。

回家后我告诉丈夫与孩子,说今天法会我得到了加持,在学给他们看的时候,用手轻轻拍打我自己,感觉手好痛,而在法会时拍得很重很重,却一点都不痛,真是非常神奇,现在我一身很轻松,法喜充满。

感恩南无第三世多杰羌佛
感恩南无大慈大悲观世音菩萨!
感恩十方諸佛菩萨!

第三世多杰羌佛辦公室(第四號公告)


第三世多杰羌佛辦公室(第四號公告)

就近期學佛行人們詢問較多的兩個問題,第三世多杰羌佛辦公室特公告如下:
第一,什么人才有資格聞法?
第三世多杰羌佛教導修行學佛的人無私利眾、踏實依照佛教經律論修行所開示的光明聖潔法音,是人類所有眾生從善去惡成就的至高法寶,所有人都有資格恭聞第三世多杰羌佛的法音。同時,任何聞法點都應該為一切想聞聽第三世多杰羌佛法音的人們提供方便,而不能以任何藉口,例如沒有皈依、沒有供養、因緣不具足等等來阻擋來人祈請聞法。無論該聞法點的負責人是何種身份、無論以什么理由,只要是為利益眾生的聞法學佛設置障礙的,這就已經喪失了修行人應具備的大悲為本的德行。發現這種自私的行為,任何人都可以自行另擇有法音的地方去聞法,不可以跟著這樣不關心眾生而自私的人。
第二,壇城的布置
無論是聞法點,還是行者自己的家里,最重要、最根本的壇城就是在壇城的正面高處選一潔凈的地方懸掛《多杰羌佛降世皈依境》,然后在下面擺上供桌。也可直接供釋迦牟尼佛像或阿彌陀佛像。如果是修學最高解脫大手印的,只供《多杰羌佛降世皈依境》就合法了。《多杰羌佛降世皈依境》可以在國際佛教僧尼總會或法音出版社恭請,根據大小的不同,其價格分別為10美元和5美元一張。如果沒有辦法請到印刷的,則可以直接從《多杰羌佛第三世》寶書中所附的《多杰羌佛降世皈依境》來攝取,自己翻拍,將其放大到適合自己的壇城大小。至于供桌,大小隨意,可以根據個人的條件擺普供或八供或曼達供,以恭敬之心為凈。除此而外,沒有任何特別的要求,這就是最正確的壇城佈置,適用于一切學佛行人。
只有接受到第三世多杰羌佛親自灌頂傳法的行人,才需要根據所修的具體法門而佈置相應的壇城。沒有親自接受第三世多杰羌佛灌頂的,不需要特別的壇城。
如果於上述的根本壇城,還供奉有其他的佛陀或菩薩的法相,則這些佛陀或菩薩的法相必須要上供,分列於《多杰羌佛降世皈依境》兩側,而且其佛像的頂部不能高于第一世多杰羌佛的肩膀,因為多杰羌佛是原始第一尊有形象的報身佛,是諸佛之尊。
特此公告。

簡述多杰羌佛轉世


 簡述多杰羌佛轉世

多杰羌佛即是金剛總持,又名持金剛,而不是金剛持,金剛持是上師,金剛總持是佛,而且是原始第一報身佛,由法身佛阿達爾瑪佛(普賢王如來)化顯的報身相,其一切佛法皆是由普賢王如來真如所顯,由於普賢王如來是法身佛,是無有前者,無有後際,無色無空,不來不去,上無諸佛可成,下無眾生可渡之如如真諦,故普賢王如來為法身無相,無言,無形,如是無法之主,無主故不能渡眾生。由是因緣法身無相佛正覺圓滿出第一個報身具相佛,報身具相佛再化身金剛薩埵等,為區別故,法身佛命名為阿達爾瑪佛,報身佛命名為多杰羌佛,化身即金剛薩埵,實際即是普賢王如來,即是阿達爾瑪佛,即是多杰羌佛。實則無二佛,而是為法身、報身、化身之別使然。由是法義,普賢王如來不直接化身,就燃燈古佛亦是多杰羌佛化身。多杰羌佛亦名金剛總持,又名持金剛(即是把持一切金剛之意),是宇宙中第一位至高無上的具相佛陀,也就是宇宙間的佛教的最高領袖誕生了,自此,由多杰羌佛開始在法界中傳法渡生,佛法才開始傳播弘揚。但是,在很多教派和傳承法義裡都將普賢王如來列為開法界之第一傳承佛陀,其實這樣講也是正確的,因為普賢王如來雖為法身無相,但第一起緣必定是法身,由法身而顯報身多杰羌佛,由報身佛才開始在法界傳播佛法,同時化身金剛薩埵等於三界宏法,眾生才有了依法成聖之主。

我們在法本上常見到的一個藍色阿達爾瑪佛具體形象,其實這個形象是一個假設,因為沒有一個假設的形體,總不能看不見的無法繪成唐卡的真如空相為阿達爾瑪佛嘛,空是無形象可畫出來的,法身佛無相可表,實際上是宇宙(法界)之不生不滅真諦的概念,由不生不滅的這個概念化顯報身佛(金剛總持),多杰羌佛即是最古的第一報身佛,具備十方諸佛的無上德相,始起於法界及三界中而表法,故金剛總持多杰羌佛實為法界佛教大教主、原始佛祖。但有很多佛教徒把多杰羌佛金剛總持誤解釋成金剛持,這是帶有罪業的原則性的錯誤,金剛總持是掌持總管法界一切金剛的涵意,故為持金剛,是把持著金剛們,而金剛持則是修持金剛之行持,自覺覺他,是金剛上師的意思,金剛持與持金剛天地之差,而持金剛的傳承是授與一切諸佛菩薩所接法,無論是顯宗、密宗,都由持金剛始傳佛法,釋迦牟尼佛所傳八萬四千法門,皆是由多杰羌佛所化顯燃燈古佛所授與釋迦牟尼佛,而密乘之寧瑪、薩迦、覺囊、噶舉、格魯、息解、噶當、東密、真言宗、唐密等,包括釋迦牟尼佛所傳的時輪金剛等西密,都是唯一的由多杰羌佛為始祖傳承,或由多杰羌佛化身金剛薩埵傳承。持金剛是法界大教主,而不是金剛上師的金剛持,當弟子找到合格師資時,要把自己的金剛上師當成佛陀來觀想,皆是為重法、重傳承而觀師為佛的涵意,實質上無論是什麼樣的上師,未具大聖仁波且共同合法認證,該上師均屬佛慢觀想而非佛陀,就是金剛總持第二世維摩詰聖尊也是由釋迦牟尼佛宣布認證為如來。

多杰羌佛的轉世與任何諸佛的化身不同,是屬於原始性表顯佛法的存在,故於每一眾生世界中,獨一降世,作為表正法之所在,在同一時代不轉世第二位多杰羌佛,必須等待前一位離開世界後,後一位才會隨眾生福報緣起誕生,如在娑婆世界曾降世多杰羌佛第二世維摩詰聖尊,維摩詰離開娑婆世界後兩千多年,由眾生因緣福報的成熟,第三世多杰羌佛雲高益西諾布才降世,多杰羌佛的降世是任何人都冒稱不了的,為維護法界佛法之尊嚴,防止魔子魔孫冒稱持金剛(金剛總持),金剛總持必須帶著正法證量而降世以為表法,而多杰羌佛的證量是任何佛陀都不能表顯的,原因是諸佛為了維護正法因緣,故不表顯與多杰羌佛同聖境的證量!相反的,一切魔軍們不具備表顯的功夫,所以無法表顯!如在釋迦牟尼佛住世時,多杰羌佛降世為維摩詰聖尊,幫助釋迦牟尼佛教化五百比丘及八千菩薩,多杰羌佛第二世維摩詰聖尊其智慧、神通表法高不可攀,無有任何聖者可及,而多杰羌佛第三世雲高益西諾布,大日如來授記五條必備:能佛降甘露、擇緣預報、取業除障、能將祥霧拿入雕刻實物長存不走、玄妙彩寶雕,這五項無聖可複,如果他授的記有大聖做得到,照樣複製成功,就算他所認證的多杰羌佛雲高益西諾布是假的,他所的話是欺世盜名的,在現實中已證明確實這世界上的大聖德們,乃至任何專家,就是無法做到雲高益西諾布三世多杰羌佛的成就,而佛菩薩級的大法王們都一致認證文憑明,因此徹底證明多杰羌佛的身份是冒稱不了的,同時為了防止魔妖作亂,假冒多杰羌佛降世,而對多杰羌佛的降世,必須是經圓滿多聖認證,又是多聖佐證恭祝,認證的多聖必須是佛菩薩、大法王,佐證恭祝的必須是大聖德菩薩們,他們必須是著名的佛教領袖及大仁波且,如果不具備此等聖量級的認證恭祝,不具文憑證書,自稱為聖者則是冒牌假貨,世人有「某某仁波且是公認的金剛總持化身」,這種法是邪知邪見,非正道佛門之法定,金剛總持化身道量何在?顯密圓通何通?五明妙諳何存?五聖十證是由哪幾位法王認證的?認證第三世文憑拿得出來嗎?哪幾位著名聖德賀證的?凡無實證實量,無有確切認證為第三世的賀證文憑,無論是什麼高僧,一律屬於恭維誇張傳聞,故當明了金剛總持即是持金剛(佛陀),金剛持即是喇嘛(上師)。如果誤把金剛持當作持金剛或金剛總持解釋,無疑的是把一個金剛上師的身份凌駕於阿彌陀佛等佛陀的頭上,這是罪大惡極行為,因為金剛總持是明文傳承中的五佛等之師多杰羌佛(持金剛)。

 BRIEF DISCRIPTION OF THE INCARNATION OF DORJE CHANG BUDDHA
Dorje Chang Buddha is Buddha Vajradhara (金剛總持, pronounced jin gang zong chi in Chinese, which literally means “Supreme Ruler of the Vajra Beings”) and is also called in Chinese 持金剛 (pronounced chi jin gang, which literally means “Ruler of the Vajra Beings”). Dorje Chang Buddha is not 金剛持 (pronounced jin gang chi in Chinese, which means “Practitioner of the Vajra” as explained below). In English, people often use the word vajradhara to refer to a 金剛持 (jin gang chi), or Practitioner of the Vajra. Actually a 金剛持 (vajradhara) is a master or guru. BuddhaVajradhara is a Buddha. Moreover, Buddha Vajradhara is the primordial sambhogakaya Buddha whose sambhogakaya manifested out of the dharmakaya of Adharma Buddha (Adi Buddha, or Samantabhadra Tathagata). All of the Buddha-dharma of Buddha Vajradhara originated from the tathata (true suchness) of Samantabhadra Tathagata. With respect to the dharmakaya of Samantabhadra Tathagata, there is no past and no future. Without form yet not empty, He neither comes nor goes. There are no Buddhas above Him to become. There are no living beings below Him to be saved. Such is His absolute truth. Thus, the dharma-body state of Samantabhadra Tathagata is without signs or characteristics, without speech, and without form. As such, there is no subject or being who could expound the dharma. Without such a subject or being, the multitudinous living beings could not be saved.
      Because of such karmic conditions, the formless dharmakaya Buddha generated the first sambhogakaya Buddha with form. This sambhogakaya Buddha with form transformed into Vajrasattva and other nirmanakayas. In order to make a distinction between those three, the dharmakaya Buddha was named Adharma Buddha; the sambhogakaya Buddha was named Dorje Chang Buddha; the nirmanakaya was named Vajrasattva. Actually, all three are Samantabhadra Tathagata, all three are Adharma Buddha, and three are Dorje Chang Buddha. In truth, there are not two Buddhas. These distinctions are due to a dharmakaya, sambhogakaya, and nirmanakaya. Based on this dharma, Samantabhadra Tathagata did not directly incarnate. Even the ancient Buddha Dipankara and Vajrasattva were the nirmanakayas of Dorje Chang Buddha.
       Dorje Chang Buddha is also called Buddha Vajradhara or Ruler of the Vajra Beings (持金剛 chi jin gang). In the entire universe, Dorje Chang Buddha is the first Buddha with form and is the highest Buddha. That is, the highest leader of Buddhism in the entire universe came into being in the form of Dorje Chang Buddha. It was Dorje Chang Buddha who began transmitting dharma and saving living beings in the dharmadhatu. As a result, Buddhism was born and the Buddha-dharma began spreading.
       However, many sects and lineages list Samantabhadra Tathagata as the first Buddha who began all the lineages in the dharmadhatu. This way of thinking is actually correct as well. That is because although Samantabhadra Tathagata is a dharmakaya without form and has no way of speaking, the origin lies with this dharmakaya from which the sambhogakaya Dorje Chang Buddha manifested. This sambhogakaya Buddha was the first one to spread the Buddha-dharma in the dharmadhatu. That sambhogakaya Buddha also transformed into Vajrasattva and other nirmanakayas whospread the dharma in the triloka (three spheres). Because of the birth of Dorje Chang Buddha, living beings were thus able to become holy beings in accordance with His dharma teachings.
     We often see in dharma books a blue image of Adharma Buddha. Actually, this image is a symbol. Such a symbolic form is necessary since the tathata emptiness of Adharma Buddha is invisible and cannot be depicted in a thangka. There is no way to draw the shape of emptiness. The dharmakaya has no features that can be pictorially depicted. In fact, the concept of dharmakaya is the absolute truth of the universe (dharmadhatu) that is not born and does not perish. The sambhogakaya Buddha (Buddha Vajradhara) manifested out of this concept of not being born and not perishing.
      Dorje Chang Buddha is the ancient, primordial sambhogakaya Buddha. He has the unsurpassed virtuous appearance that all of the Buddhas in the ten directions have. He was the first in the dharmadhatu and triloka (three spheres) to express the dharma. Therefore, Buddha Vajradhara, or Dorje Chang Buddha, is actually the greatest leader of Buddhism in the entire dharmadhatu. He is the original ancestor of Buddhism.
     However, many Buddhists misinterpret Dorje Chang Buddha, or Buddha Vajradhara, as being a 金剛持 (jin gang chi), or Practitioner of the Vajra (i.e. vajradhara). This is a mistake in a matter of principle that carries with it a karmic offence. Buddha Vajradhara has the meaning of one who is in charge of and has supervision over all of the vajra beings. Thus, He is the 持金剛 (chi jin gang) or Ruler of the Vajra Beings, the one who has dominion over the vajra beings. On the other hand, a 金剛持 (jin gang chi), or Practitioner of the Vajra (i.e. vajradhara), is one who learns the dharma and teaches others. Such a person enlightens himself and others. The term 金剛持 (jin gang chi), or Practitioner of the Vajra, connotes Vajra Master. There is a world of difference between a 金剛持 (jin gang chi) or Practitioner of the Vajra on the one hand and a 持金剛  (chi jin gang) or Ruler of the Vajra Beings on the other hand.
       Buddha Vajradhara (also called Ruler of the Vajra Beings) has passed down dharma to all of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, who received such dharma. All of the Buddha-dharma of both exoteric and esoteric Buddhism was originally transmitted by this Ruler of the Vajra Beings. The 84,000 dharma methods that Sakyamuni Buddha taught were transmitted to Sakyamuni Buddha by the ancient Buddha Dipankara, who was a nirmanakaya of Dorje Chang Buddha. Tibetan esoteric Buddhism, which contains all of the dharma of the Nyingma, Sakya, Jonang, Kagyu, andGeluk sects, including the Kalachakra Vajra Dharma transmitted by Sakyamuni Buddha; Japanese esoteric Buddhism; and esoteric Buddhism taught by Sakyamuni Buddha contained in the Tripitaka all come from the lineage of which Dorje Chang Buddha is the original ancestor or from the lineage of His nirmanakaya, Vajrasattva. 金剛總持 Buddha Vajradhara or Ruler of the Vajra Beings is the supreme leader of Buddhism in the dharmadhatu. He is not a Vajra Master who is a 金剛持 (jin gang chi), or Practitioner of the Vajra (i.e. vajradhara).
       When disciples find a qualified master, they should visualize their Vajra Master as being a Buddha. This is done out of respect for the dharma and respect for one’s lineage. However, no matter what type of master he may be, if his identity or status has not been recognized as a Buddha by rinpoches of great holiness in accordance with the dharma, then he is not a Buddha. Still, the disciple must visualize Him as a Buddha. Even the holy and venerable Vimalakirti, who as the second Buddha Vajradhara, was affirmed as a Tathagata (Buddha) through an announcement of Sakyamuni Buddha.
       The incarnation of Dorje Chang Buddha is different from the nirmanakayas of any other Buddha. Such an incarnation is a primordial manifestation of the existence of Buddha-dharma. In each world of living beings, there can be at any one time only one incarnation of Dorje Chang Buddha, who manifests or expresses the existence of the true dharma. There will not be a second incarnation of Dorje Chang Buddha in the same age or era. Only after the first incarnation of Dorje Chang Buddha leaves the world can the second incarnation be born based on karmic conditions relating to the good fortune of living beings. For example, the holy and venerable Vimalakirti, who was the second Dorje Chang Buddha, took birth in this earthly realm in the past. The third Dorje Chang Buddha, H.H. Wan Ko Yeshe Norbu, took birth in this earthly realm more than two thousand years after Vimalakirti left it and only when karmic conditions relating to the good fortune of living beings had matured.
       Nobody can get away with falsely claiming to be the incarnation of Dorje Chang Buddha. In order to protect the dignity of the Buddha-dharma in the dharmadhatu and prevent demons from falsely claiming to be Buddha Vajradhara or the Ruler of the Vajra Beings, Buddha Vajradhara must be born with His own dharma and realization so that He may manifest or express the dharma. No other Buddha is able to manifest realization equal to the realization of Dorje Chang Buddha. That is because in order to protect the true dharma, the Buddhas do not manifest realization powers at the sameholy level as the realization of Dorje Chang Buddha. Conversely, all demons lack the power to manifest such realization and therefore cannot manifest such realization.
       When Sakyamuni Buddha lived in this world, Dorje Chang Buddha took birth as the holy and venerable Vimalakirti, who helped Sakyamuni Buddha teach the 500 monks and 8,000 Bodhisattvas. The holy and venerable Vimalakirti, who was the second incarnation of Dorje Chang Buddha, had the highest wisdom and the greatest ability to manifest supernatural powers as an expression of dharma. No other holy being could match Him.
       H.H. Mahavairocana Tathagata formally pronounced that the third incarnation of Dorje Chang Buddha, H.H. Wan Ko Yeshe Norbu, must meet five conditions: He must successfully invoke the Buddhas to bestow nectar. He must be able to perform the Golden Vase Selection of Karmic Affinity and predict the results of that ceremony beforehand. He must be able to eliminate the karmic obstructions of disciples. He must be able to take mist, place it inside a hollowed out sculpted boulder, and have the mist stay there. He must be able to carve wondrous multicolored sculptures.
       The formal pronouncement stated that no other holy being could repeat those five types of accomplishments. It also stated that if any other person of great holiness repeat those five types of accomplishments, then Mahavairocana Tathagata’s recognition that H.H. Wan Ko Yeshe Norbu is Dorje Chang Buddha is false, and the pronouncement has deceived the public in order to build up a false reputation.
       The facts have proven that in this world there is no being of great holiness and virtue or even an expert who is able to match the accomplishments of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Wan Ko Yeshe Norbu. Furthermore, great dharma kings on the level of a Buddha or Bodhisattvahave unanimously recognized the identity of H.H. Wan Ko Yeshe Norbuthrough recognition certificates. This thoroughly proves that no one can get away with falsely claiming the identity or status of Dorje Chang Buddha.
       In order to prevent demons from wreaking havoc by falsely claiming to be the incarnation of Dorje Chang Buddha, the required number of many holy beings must recognize the incarnation of Dorje Chang Buddha. Furthermore, many additional holy beings must bear witness to the veracity of the recognition and respectfully offer congratulations. The many holy beings who recognize the incarnation of Dorje Chang Buddha must be Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, or great dharma kings. Those who bear witness to the veracity of the recognition and respectfully offer congratulations must beextremely holy and virtuous Bodhisattvas. All of those who recognize, bear witness, and respectfully offer congratulations must be famous leaders within Buddhism and great rinpoches. If the identity of the person was notrecognized by those on such a holy level, if congratulations were not respectfully offered to him by those on such a holy level, and if he does not have legitimate recognition certificates, then his claims that he is a holy being are false.
       People say, “So-and-so rinpoche is universally recognized as the incarnation of Buddha Vajradhara.” This way of speaking is based on heretical and erroneous understanding. It is not in accord with the rules of true Buddhism. Where is the realization of this rinpoche that an incarnation of Buddha Vajradhara would have? Does this rinpoche have complete proficiency in both exoteric and esoteric Buddhism? Does he have full mastery of the Five Vidyas? Which five dharma kings have recognized his identity as being Buddha Vajradhara and which ten dharma kings or rinpoches have certified that recognition? Can he show others a recognition certificate showing he is the third Buddha Vajradhara? Which several famous people of holy virtue respectfully offered congratulations to him for being recognized? No matter how high a certain monastic may be, if he does not have true realization and the required written recognitions andcongratulations stating he is the third incarnation of Buddha Vajradhara, then all claims by others that he is Buddha Vajradhara are flattery, exaggeration, and rumors.
       Hence, one must understand that Buddha Vajradhara (金剛總持, jin gang zong chi) is 持金剛 (chi jin gang, which is a Buddha). On the other hand, a 金剛持 (jin gang chi) is a lama (master). Anyone who misinterprets a 金剛持(jin gang chi) as being a 持金剛  (chi jin gang) or Buddha Vajradhara is undoubtedly placing the status of a mere vajra master over that of Amitabha Buddha and other Buddhas. Such conduct is a terrible offense because according to the sutras and esoteric scriptures Buddha Vajradhara is Dorje Chang Buddha (持金剛   chi jin gang), the Master of the Five Buddhas and other Buddhas.
