Because they are used to sitting high on a rostrum, they have become arrogant and far removed from people. They even pretend to be holy beings, intentionally or unintentionally. The<\/span>\u00a0United International World Buddhism Association Headquarters\u00a0<span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">has received many reports. We advise you not to call yourself a sacred person incorrectly! You can only be a real holy being if you come to the United International World Buddhism Association Headquarters and pass the test for a holy one with your own capabilities!<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 This public announcement once again reminds those who do not read the announcements to think about it carefully. Are you an average person or someone degenerating into a living being in the three evil realms? Why do you still ask these questions, although the public announcements clearly state the answers?<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 You must understand exceptionally well that the fruit level or the stage of a holy or non-holy being can never be judged and ascertained from their outer appearance by an ordinary person\u2019s acknowledgment. They cannot be determined definitively by the differentiating minds of the ordinary people.<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Whether someone is holy or ordinary and what level they are cannot be accurately said by anyone in the world. Only two Tremendous Holy Gurus can call it with precision sans error. One is Namo Shakyamuni Buddha, who has entered parinirvana; the other is Namo H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, currently living in the world. However, since Namo H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III does not certify whether someone is holy or ordinary, the only way to be 100% sure about someone\u2019s status is through the written exam and the Holy Test. Combining the test on the dharma meaning of Sutra, Vinaya, and Sastra and Yidam\u2019s holy selection, the test candidate\u2019s dharma power and capabilities are measured. Under such conditions, the level, the robe, and the certification obtained can tell the actual status of a holy and virtuous one. The Holy Test is performed before the proctors, comprising seven holy beings and ten gurus. Therefore, the most smooth-talking person cannot just pass the test by playing tricks. The seven sacred masters and the ten gurus have all taken a vow and guaranteed that those masters who have passed the test, worn the robe indicating their levels, and received a genuine and accurate certificate.<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 This announcement is now published.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: right;\">United International World Buddhism Association Headquarters<br \/>March 3, 2016<\/p><p><em>(Eric Huang translated this announcement into English.
