Furthermore, Namo Dorje Chang Buddha III did not practice dharma to turn up the so-called blessing dharma water to prevent the Covid-19 viruses. The Buddha will never act in such a way that violates causality.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>The second issue: Someone suggests that all Buddhist dharmas, including the audio recordings of dharma and Buddhist texts expounded by the Buddha, must be authenticated through dharma adjudication before we can respectfully listen to or study. Such a view is ridiculously absurd, ludicrous, and foolish. It is an erroneous and evil view. We must unequivocally understand one simple but essential concept: Buddha\u2019s perfect enlightenment and divine capacity are unsurpassed and incomparable. Buddha\u2019s prajna wisdom is unparalleled and incomparable. Buddha\u2019s all-seeing might is matchless and incomparable. They are nothing Bodhisattvas and Arahats can hold a candle to. The decisions made by the Buddha are accurate. Which dharma adjudication can surpass Buddha\u2019s adjudication? Therefore, the meaning of the Buddhist texts and audio recordings of dharma expounded by Namo Dorje Chang Buddha III is, without a doubt, accurate. Who could be a super-Buddha that exceeds the Buddha to adjudicate the dharma personally expounded or recognized by the Buddha? Could there be a super-Buddha in the universe? It is pitiful to think in such a way!<\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 For those of Namo Shakyamuni Buddha\u2019s sutras, if Namo Dorje Chang Buddha III adjudicates them to be authentic, they were not distorted or falsified by mara-descendants. Why do they need to be adjudicated again? For those Buddhist texts that the Buddha allowed the Holy Gurus to (practice Dharmas to) determine their authenticity, it was to let the public have an eye-opening experience and be awed by Buddha Dharma\u2019s inconceivability and supremacy. Anyone who believes it is necessary to adjudicate Buddha\u2019s Dharma must be an ignorant and incompetent idiot.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: right;\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">World Buddhism Association Headquarters<br \/><\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">August 23, 2020<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"><em>(Sheily Lauly translated this article from Chinese to English.
