Press release from: Friends of His Holiness Dorje Chang Buddha III

New Site Features Unprecedentedly Large Number of Recognitions, Accomplishments, Awards & Priceless Visual Arts of His Holiness Dorje Chang Buddha III

PASADENA, Ca., May 27, 2016 – A new English-language website dedicated to sharing information about His Holiness Dorje Chang Buddha III launches today at http://www.hhdorjechangbuddhaiii.com/.

The site features the latest news and information on His Holiness Dorje Chang Buddha III, who is recognized for his devotion to a wide scope of cultural and religious activities that enrich the lives of people from communities throughout the world.

In addition to featuring information on His unprecedentedly large number of recognitions and accomplishments, the site provides information on Buddhism practices and the Five Vidyas – the fundamental principles of the universe and true teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha.

His Holiness Dorje Chang Buddha III has been recognized by the most highly realized practitioners of Buddhism as the third incarnation of the original Buddha. His cultivation and accomplishments are representative of His inner-vidya powers. As an example, His manifestation of reversing an aged appearance to that of a youth is not what any dharma king or dharma master from any sect or school can achieve.

Other examples of his inner-vidya powers can be found in the arts and humanities. His Holiness Dorje Chang Buddha III received the Top Honor for the World Peace Prize, an award later recognized by the 112th Congress in U.S. Senate Res. 614, which commended Him for advancing peace, justice and inter-religious collaboration. He has also long been an internationally renowned artist. His paintings are not limited by subject or themes and are of many types, from water-ink paintings to oil paintings. Each are extremely valuable and rare. As early as in 2000, His artworks were sold for more than $2 million dollars each. Last March, an ink painting of His was sold at the New York Spring Auction for $16.5 million, which was the highest price realized at the 2015 Spring Auction of all artworks by ancient and modern artists worldwide. His paintings are on permanent exhibition at the International Art Museum of America in San Francisco, the H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Cultural and Art Museum in Los Angeles County, and other art museums. Pieces also hang in private collections across the world.

Thousands of His discourses have been recorded, some of which are being translated into English and other languages. The Xuanfa Institute, also based in California, is a nonprofit, international organization founded by Zhaxi Zhuoma Rinpoche to propagate the correct Buddha-dharma as taught by Shakyamuni Buddha and His Holiness Dorje Chang Buddha III.

His Holiness Dorje Chang Buddha III, previously known as Buddha Master Wan Ko Yee, was born in China and immigrated to the United States in 1999. He currently lives in California, where several institutions dedicated to His legacy have already been established.
