Validation\u00a0of Facts in Response to Letter of Inquiry<\/p>\n

by\u00a0The Office of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III:<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III\u2019s vow of conduct is to teach people to learn Buddhism and cultivate, to be a good person, to carry out kind deeds, and to attain accomplishment. His Holiness the Buddha does not get involve in any business.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Doing businesses is operating affairs within the samsara. The purpose is to make money for a living. This belongs to the conduct of worldly production and sustaining.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Opening dharma-listening centers is entering the gate of exiting from worldly matters and learning Buddhism. The purpose is to benefit the great mass. This belongs to advancing on the path of becoming liberated and attaining holiness.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Mentioning doing businesses and opening dharma-listening centers as comparable matters is a big insult to the Buddha-dharma!<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Whoever does damage to dharma-listening centers represents evil!<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Which great rinpoche or dharma master whom you see truly has the Five Vidyas? Can you list his or her five achievements of wisdom with real examples? Please do not keep mentioning the Five Vidyas at any occasion like casual verbiages.<\/p>\n

Requesting Verification<\/p>

To the Office of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III,<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 A master made a vow for increasing the reward of good fortune for his or her disciples. The way is to buy a lot of antiques and artworks. Disciples got the suggestion of opening shops, outlets at meeting places, and online stores. It was said that H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III knew and approved doing this.<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Is it a right conduct for Buddhist disciples to sell antiques and artworks? Does doing so have as much merit as opening dharma-listening centers?<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Can wisdom of the Five Vidyas be opened up and developed from learning the appraisal and appreciation of antiques and artworks?<\/p>
