If he practices that dharma, his transmission is from demons and devils. In this world, only H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, the sole holder of the Namo Great Compassionate Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva\u2019s Blessing Dharma, has the authority to speak and recognize this matter. As long as the Namo Great Compassionate Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva\u2019s Blessing Dharma is not transmitted from H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III through a lineage, the so-called Namo Great Compassionate Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva\u2019s Blessing Dharma practiced by anyone is from demons and devils. Even the elderly dharma kings in Tibet who taught your master do not have the transmission of Namo Great Compassionate Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva\u2019s Blessing Dharma either, and nor are they able to practice the Namo Great Compassionate Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva\u2019s Blessing Dharma of proper transmission. If they transmit or practice that dharma, the transmission is from demons and devils, too. Your master did participate in a Dharma contest with another rinpoche.
