Dorje Chang Buddha III:<\/p><p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Recently, many Buddhist disciples have made inquiries to the Office of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III (the Office), wanting to know if the articles published by someone by the name of Chen Chun-Kwang on Facebook is factual. For Buddhist disciples to have the correct information, the Office now officially issue the following reply after finding out the real situation:<\/p><ol><li><strong>H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III said:\u00a0\u201c<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">In this Dharma-ending era, any kind of strange or fabricated thing could happen out of thin air. Therefore, Buddhists must be very vigilant. Ever since I came to this world in this lifetime, I have never spoken to anyone by the name of\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Chen Chun-Kwang<strong>\u00a0on a one-to-one basis. Perhaps when I was receiving groups of people, someone by the name of Chen\u00a0<\/strong>Chun-Kwang<strong>\u00a0saw me when he was in the congregation. But I didn\u2019t have time to identify who Chen<\/strong>\u00a0Chun-Kwang<\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">\u00a0was and what he was about. As to who are eminent monks or greatly virtuous people, you can only trust the exam conducted by the World Buddhism Association Headquarters. Only those who obtained their grade levels from the exam can truly prove their levels of accomplishment. I also only believe in the exam that is based upon facts.<\/span>\u201d<br \/><br \/><\/strong><\/li><li>Hang Kung Rinpoche never knew of anyone by the name of Chen Chun-Kwang, because He is busy with His own work and has no time to have direct contact with Buddhists.<br \/><br \/><\/li><li>Longzhi Rinpoche said: \u201cFirst of all, I am only an ordinary person making effort to learn from Buddha to cultivate myself. I am not a great Holy Guru. Secondly, I have heard of the name Chen Chun-Kwang, but I don\u2019t know what he looks like. I have never communicated with him verbally, via telephone, or via by any written words. I also have not arranged for anyone to get in touch with him. Since I don\u2019t even know this person, how could I possibly guide him to do anything?<br \/><br \/><\/li><li>No wonder that before Dharma King Gar Tongstan passed away in a liberated state two years ago, someone mentioned a Chen Chun-Kwang from Taiwan during a meeting, and the kind of things that he did. Dharma King Gar Tongstan said at that time: \u201cI have tried guiding this Chen Chun-Kwang, but he has deviated from cultivating himself and turned a deaf ear to the edification he was given. In fact, how could there be only one such person like Chen Chun-Kwang in this world? This kind of nonsense is not even worth mentioning.\u201d<\/li><\/ol><p><br \/>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 We hope that all Buddhist disciples will sincerely and respectfully listen to the recorded Dharma discourses imparted by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, and truly cultivate your conduct with the <em>Supreme and Unsurpassable Mahamudra of Liberation\u00a0<\/em>as your foundation, use\u00a0<em>128 Evil and Erroneous Views<\/em>\u00a0to verify and evaluate all Buddhist cultivators. Then, you will naturally differentiate the correct from the evil, and the real from the fake. You will develop correct knowledge and correct views. You will reap both good fortune and wisdom!<\/p><p style=\"text-align: right;\">The Office of H.H.
