H.H. the Dalai Lama took the elder dharma king as his root master beginning in 1971. H.H. Dharma King Sakya Trizin, H.H. Dharma King Dudjom of the Nyingma sect, and H.H.

However, it was also the day when great karmic conditions matured relating to the final moments of his life. The elder dharma king ordered Shabdrung Rinpoche to write a congratulatory letter. In that letter he praised the book <a href=\"https:\/\/cabuddhists.org\/en\/category\/the-treasure-book-h-h-dorje-chang-buddha-iii\/\"><em>A Treasury of True Buddha-Dharma<\/em><\/a> about H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Wan Ko Yeshe Norbu, saying that the book is the guidepost leading to true Buddha-dharma and the gateway leading to benefiting and providing happiness to living beings. After that congratulatory letter was written, the rinpoche passed on to a Buddha-land right then and there. That was the<br \/>final holy act of this elder dharma king of supreme enlightenment.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-d63d18b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d63d18b\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-bccf09c\" data-id=\"bccf09c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3bf54dd elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3bf54dd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1273\" height=\"1788\" src=\"https:\/\/cabuddhists.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/14-3.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-77943\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cabuddhists.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/14-3.jpg 1273w, https:\/\/cabuddhists.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/14-3-729x1024.jpg 729w, https:\/\/cabuddhists.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/14-3-768x1079.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cabuddhists.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/14-3-1094x1536.jpg 1094w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1273px) 100vw, 1273px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6c7ae59 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6c7ae59\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>H.H.
