The International Buddhist Sangha received a question from the Office of the Third Dzogchen Rinpoche regarding why Rinpoche did not attend the Great Dharma Assembly and the launch of the "Heart Sutra Commentary" in Hong Kong. In response, the International Buddhist Sangha would like to provide an explanation.
Rinpoche, Hengxing Jiacuo, did indeed come to Hong Kong but was unable to attend the Dharma Assembly due to illness. His health prevented him from being able to stay at the venue, so the International Buddhist Sangha agreed to let him rest and recover.
Below are the relevant materials provided by the Office of the Third Dzogchen Rinpoche and Rinpoche's confession letter.
