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 launching ceremony at the Library of Congress in the United States. The Library of Congress officially collected this book, and it was then that people learned that the highly respected Master Yi Yun Gao, Yang E Yi Xi Nu Bu Dafa Wang, had been recognized by the leaders or regents of the major Buddhist sects and the Great Living Buddhas of the world's Buddhist community 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 how before Shakyamuni Buddha became enlightened, his name was Siddhartha Gautama, but after Shakyamuni Buddha became enlightened, 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), and 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 names of "Yi Yun Gao" and the honorable titles of Master and Supreme Dharma King no longer exist. However, this news was published before the announcement of the Namo Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha's Buddha name, and 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 His Holiness Third Generation Dorje Chang Buddha, which is legal, the names used before the official naming no longer exist.
Mysterious Mist in the Stone#
This stone is beautiful just by looking at its appearance, like jade and emerald. Because of this, it is not an ordinary stone at all. It contains a mysterious world inside. This is the unique carving art called "Rhyme Carving" by Professor Yi Yun Gao, a world-renowned international art master. He is also the founder of this mysterious sculpture, which has written a chapter in the history of the mysterious creation carving art that surpasses nature. After experts' appraisal, they unanimously agreed that this is the most amazing, shocking, and breathtaking art since the history of human civilization. It not only surpasses the craftsmanship of nature, but it is also the first kind of sculpture art in the world that cannot be replicated. Its value is astonishing, and an organization offered five million US dollars to purchase this stone, but it was politely declined by the master, as one can imagine.
Let's take a look at this magical stone called "Mysterious Mist in the Stone". From the outside, it is just a large green jade stone, but inside, it is another world. With layers of mountains and intertwining nets, it changes magically and unpredictably. Its structure is so profound that it is breathtaking. In some places, the mist is like a thin veil, and in some places, the mist is so dense that the background is not visible, and a fog lamp is needed to see the appearance of Mount Lu. The rhyme is lingering and swirling, and it is even more amazing than the creation of nature. In this world, artists aim to achieve nature, but the master's carving goes beyond nature. Natural caves, stubborn rocks, and mountains can no longer compare to the master's carving.
Moreover, in the history of sculpture, artists have been able to carve solid images or expressions, but no one has ever been able to carve out the ethereal clouds and the formless gases. However, the master's works combine gases and solids together. When you take a closer look, you can see the clouds swirling and faintly see them in the cave. The several feet square stubborn rock makes people feel a distant distance inside the cave.
Therefore, after appreciating the works, experts sincerely praised: This is simply something that cannot be imagined on Earth. Only products from another world can be so magical and incredible. The master's carving art truly deserves to be the only art masterpiece in the world that surpasses natural creation! When we observe his other enchanting artworks, we are amazed and fascinated. Not only are there no traces of artificiality, but they also far surpass the true appearance of nature. Just by looking at some of the photos of these works, we can see that they are not empty words. These works have reached the realm of divine craftsmanship and are the result of the master's attainment in Buddhism, literature, talent, and morality. Just as the master wrote in the poem for the Mysterious Mist in the Stone: "There is a stone hanging with white jade silk, the carving skill is unparalleled, the sentiment in the mist is silent in the cave, the transformation of the heavens and the sea is difficult to reproduce the truth." Gao Shi Tu wrote: "The method of capturing beasts is the most difficult, hidden companions emerge from the secluded valley into the human world, the meaning transforms the ethereal spirit, the inferior stubborn tiger cub does not inquire." Tian Zi Shi wrote: "The unique milk-green stone is the most graceful, its gentle color and rhyme are even more pleasing, this is not a broad-minded elegance, but reading it can be spiritually enlightening." Wu Hu Shi wrote: "The stone named Wu Hu is not born in the sea, recognized in dreams, and awakened in the world of humans." Such poetic lines are so tempting, unattainable, and full of charm!
