"Sweet Potato Vine News" December 11, 2000: "'Great Strength King' Monk" auctioned off for 72 million yuan.

Explanation of the "Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha" Buddha Name#

On April 3, 2008, the book "The Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha" published by the Global Buddhist Publishing House and the World Dharma Sound Publishing House held a solemn and grand launch ceremony at the Library of Congress in the United States. The Library of Congress officially collected this book, and people only then learned that the highly respected Master Yiyun Gao and the Great Dharma King Yang'e Yixi Nuo Bu have been recognized by the leaders or regents of the major Buddhist sects in the world as the third incarnation of the Buddha Dorje Chang, with the Buddha name being the Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha. Since then, people have been calling him "Namo Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha". This is similar to before Shakyamuni Buddha became a Buddha, his name was Prince Siddhartha, but after Shakyamuni Buddha became a Buddha, he was called "Namo Shakyamuni Buddha". Therefore, we now say "Namo Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha". Especially on December 12, 2012, the United States Senate Resolution No. 614 officially named the Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha as His Holiness (H.H. Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha). Since then, the title of Namo Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha has been officially established. Moreover, the Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha is also the legal name recognized by the government, and the previous titles of "Yiyun Gao" and the honorable titles of Master and Great Dharma King no longer exist. However, this news was published before the announcement of the Buddha name of the Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha, at that time people did not yet know the true identity of the Buddha, so in order to respect the truth of history, we still retain the names used before the official naming of the Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha in the news. But everyone should be clear that except for the name of H.H. Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha, which is legal, the names used before the official naming no longer exist.

"'Great Power King Venerable'" Auctioned for 72 Million Yuan#

Reporter Lin Rongjun/Taipei Report
Zhen Cang Art Auction Company auctioned the painting "Great Power King Venerable" by the well-known Chinese painter Yiyun Gao, setting a record high price of 72 million New Taiwan dollars, which attracted high attention in the art world. However, some businesses subsequently claimed that this was "religious art", which is why the price was high, but disciples in Taiwan pointed out that the criticism was worth questioning due to a mentality of blind admiration for foreign things.

After setting this record high price for a living artist's traditional Chinese painting, some media reports stated that Yiyun Gao's paintings cannot be compared to Lang Shining's Chinese paintings with a Western flavor, and some individuals claimed that Chinese paintings made by Westerners can only sell for high prices.

Disciples in Taiwan pointed out that such remarks are pitiful. Purely in terms of painting, Chinese painting is not inferior to Western painting. On the contrary, due to its 5,000 years of history and culture, Chinese painting is far more expressive and profound than Western painting. Therefore, the collection value of Chinese painting is higher than that of Western painting.

One disciple pointed out that it is only because Western economic development has been faster in recent times that the prices of Chinese and Western paintings have been greatly distorted, which is extremely unreasonable. Now, it is not easy to have Chinese painters with outstanding performances, but they are criticized by some people who question how Chinese painting can surpass Western painting.

He asked back, why can't Chinese painting surpass Western painting? Is it because of a mentality of blind admiration for foreign things? He also pointed out that Yiyun Gao's collection of calligraphy and painting encompasses various schools and techniques, integrating his own style, and has published the "Master Yiyun Gao's Collection of Paintings" and various other works, which have received high praise in mainland China and the United States.

Professor Gu Ruizhao from the National Defense Medical University, who has conducted in-depth research on Yiyun Gao's paintings, also pointed out that Yiyun Gao's paintings are thought-provoking and require careful consideration. Only by improving our literary and philosophical foundation can we deeply understand the connotation and essence of his paintings.

Yiyun Gao has served as the president of the Chinese Painting Research Association of the Chinese Academy of Education and Culture. Other important members of the association include Xie Zhiliu, Zhou Yingnan, Wu Zhangshu, Qian Juntang, Liang Shuming, Wan Laiming, and Zang Kejia, among other art masters.
