Introduction:
According
to the teachings imparted by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, to learn from Buddha to cultivate
oneself, one must practice in accordance with the Xiaman Most Excellent Oceanic
Mind Essence and the Most Excellent Enlightenment State of Emptiness Oceanic
Mind Essence; abstain from doing any bad deeds, do all kinds of good deeds, and
benefit living beings. Only this is the proper undertaking. That is why His
Holiness the Buddha did not agree that the Exam of Lifting the Pestle onto the
Platform should be conducted. In order to obtain the support of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III
for conducting the Exam, the Holy Gurus deliberately set up a ruse and then
requested that His Holiness the Buddha be present to observe the proceedings.
Consequently, when H.H. Dorje Chang
Buddha III did come, the situation was set up in such a way that
His Holiness the Buddha could not decline to help and took action to resolve
the conundrum.
The criterion a Vajra King of Great
Strength must meet is to lift the Pestle onto the Platform at a weight
surpassing His base standard by 30 levels. That is the highest level. That is
to say, throughout history, the maximum level that any powerful Champion of
Great Strength, Tremendously Great Holy Guru of Marvelous Enlightenment, or
Tremendously Great Holy Guru of Equal Enlightenment had been able to attain was
30 levels above Their base standard. Astonishingly, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III
lifted the 420-pound Supreme Holy Vajra Pestle with one hand and held it for
over 13 seconds, surpassing His base weight standard by 56 levels. It was
proven that His Holiness the Buddha is an unprecedented Vajra King of Great
Strength for Lifting the Pestle onto the Platform. The Holy Gurus said that the
record set by H.H. Dorje Chang
Buddha III clearly pointed to the fact that the intrinsic
quality of His Holiness the Buddha is that of a true Buddha. They also said
that this record was unprecedented in history and They dared to predict that no
one in the future will ever be able to break this record.
This Supreme Holy Vajra Pestle is kept at the
Holy Miracles Temple in California in the United States. All are welcome to
come and, with sincere respect and piety, lift the Supreme Holy Vajra Pestle.
Doing so will bring magnificent blessings and auspiciousness to you.

February 12,
2020 (Los Angeles)
In the Great Hall of Shakyamuni Buddha at the Holy Miracles Temple, a
Dharma Assembly about the true realization power of Buddha Dharma was held: The
Exam of Lifting the Pestle onto the Platform. The purpose of this exam is to
verify how the true realization power of Buddhist cultivators learning from
Buddha to cultivate themselves changed the degree of the physical conditions of
their bodies. Unexpectedly, this Exam inadvertently required the involvement of
H.H. Dorje Chang
Buddha III who was compelled and could not decline the request
to resolve a difficult situation.
What is meant by Lifting the Pestle onto the Platform? Vajra pestles are
commonly found in shops selling cultural relics and antiques. These pestles
range from 10 to 400 jins, equivalent to approximately 11 to 440 pounds. This
kind of huge pestle is from Tibet; they are called Platform Pestles. They come
in different styles such as the Phurba Pestle, Five-pronged Pestle,
Nine-pronged Pestle, Kalachakra Vajra Pestle, Yamataka Vajra Pestle,
Guhyasamâja Vajra Pestle, and more. Some Platform Pestles were made during the
Era of Sutra, Illusion and Mind at the Early Propagation Period. Some Platform
Pestles of correct standard were made based on the system revamped by Guru Padmasambhava
during the Later Propagation Period. People commonly regard these as art
objects. Rarely do people know that the pestles were in fact used for directly
testing practitioners’ realization power from practicing true or false Buddha
Dharma in ancient time. Those who were tested were required to lift the vajra
pestle off the ground, hold it for a required duration of time and then place
the pestle onto the platform. This kind of test is called Lifting the Pestle
onto the Platform.
Proven by real practice, using one hand to lift a Platform Pestle is
extremely difficult. Someone who can lift 1,000 jins (approximately 1,100
pounds) with two hands cannot even lift 300 jins (approximately 330 pounds) off
the ground with one hand. According to the Dharma rules, each person has a
weight standard that they have to reach based on their respective age and body
weight. One who reaches their standard is called a Healthy Physique Man.
Exceeding the level of Healthy Physique Man is surpassing the standard. Going below
the level of Healthy Physique Man is subpar. There are a total of 30 levels
above, and five levels below.
Lifting the Pestle onto the Platform is the most scientific testing
mechanism for verifying whether a person is of ordinary physical condition or possesses
the composition of a holy person. The physical composition and condition of a
holy person is completely different from that of an ordinary person. Both have
the appearance of a person. However, their inner properties are completely
different. Just like a pigeon and an eagle. They have the same appearance of a
bird, but their inner properties and their strength are vastly different. Such
differences naturally exist. A professional strong man trains himself every
day, and only after 10 or up to 20 years is he able to become a strong man of
exceptionally strong physique. However, his physique is strengthened due to
cumulative practices. The essential quality of his physique has not changed. He
is unable to transform the physique or functions of an ordinary person and
cannot become liberated from the ordinary to become holy. A holy one who has
learned and practiced true Buddha Dharma can surpass the physical condition and
strength of a strong man of great strength by many times.
One who surpasses their weight standard by 12 to 19 levels is an
elementary level Holy Guru, by 20 to 25 levels is a mid-level Holy Guru and
surpassing 26 to 29 levels is a Great Holy Guru. When one surpasses the maximum
level of 30, one is a Tremendously Great Holy Guru and a Vajra King of Great
Strength. Normally, it is very difficult for an ordinary man of good strength
to surpass two to three levels. A national level strong man can surpass up to
nine levels. A world-class strong man can surpass 10 levels, but not beyond that.
The holy strength generated by the body of a holy person is absolutely not
something anyone with the physique of an ordinary person can hope to attain.
This is especially true for lifting the Supreme Holy Vajra Pestle “Onto the
Golden Step,” or “Off the Holy Seat.” Lifting the weight of such a level will
cause the bones, tendons, and muscles of an ordinary person to break down and
their joints to break apart. One must have the physique and strength of a
Tremendously Great Holy Guru in order to lift the Supreme Holy Vajra Pestle. We
have personally seen the strongest man in Asia Long Wu perform Lifting the
Pestle onto the Platform. Although he broke his fingers and bled while doing
so, he did eventually surpass 10 levels and was awarded the golden belt of Grand
Master of Strength, World’s Strongest Man for Lifting the Pestle onto the
Platform. That was terrific.
On February 9, there was a huge vajra pestle of 420 pounds inside the
Hall of Shakyamuni Buddha at the Holy Miracles Temple. That was the Supreme Holy
Vajra Pestle that was placed on the Golden Step during a Dharma Assembly held
two days earlier by Holy Gurus. Other than Tremendously Great Holy Gurus, no
one in this world has ever been able to lift it one bit. Since the Supreme Holy
Vajra Pestle was already placed onto the Golden Step, the Exam of Lifting the
Pestle onto the Platform could not be conducted. This was because according to
the Dharma rules, when this Pestle is on the Golden Step, the Vajra Hook cannot
be used to lift any pestle. Otherwise, it is against the rules. Everyone was
very worried and all those who have good physical strength came forward, but no
one was able to lift that Pestle off the Holy Seat with one hand. They used
their utmost effort to lift this Pestle off the Golden Step, but the Pestle did
not move one bit. The Dharma Assembly could not proceed. It happened that H.H.
Dorje Chang Buddha III had accepted a respectful request to make His presence
at this Dharma Assembly to observe the proceedings. Everyone then beseeched H.H.
Dorje Chang
Buddha III to resolve this difficult situation.
H.H. Dorje Chang
Buddha III said: “From the beginning, I have disagreed with your
conducting this exam. After all this time, all those who were tested were but
ordinary people. How many of them are elementary level Holy Gurus? They are not
Holy Gurus, they could not surpass more than 10 levels! Let whoever put this
pestle onto the Golden Step take it down.” The Dharma masters replied that it
was placed up there by a Holy Monk. H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III said: “This is absolutely a
mischief. Isn’t this a deliberate intention to make things difficult? He
clearly knew that you have to take the Exam today, yet He deliberately set up
such a difficult barrier here! Let Him take it down!” The Dharma masters said
that this Holy Monk had already left yesterday to propagate Dharma in another
state. Reluctantly, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III ascended to the Dharma platform
and said: “I did not come to take part in your activities here to lift the
pestle, I am just helping you. I will give it a try. I don’t know yet whether I
am able to help you bring the pestle down.
After saying that, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III went in front of the Supreme Holy
Vajra Pestle, and lifted the Vajra Pestle off the Holy Seat with one hand, the
Golden Step was removed in accordance with the Dharma rules. At that time, the
disciples were tremendously shocked that H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III,
who only weighs between 100 and 200 pounds, have lifted a Vajra Pestle of 420
pounds that even the World’s Strongest Man with a body weight of more than 300
pounds could not lift, surpassing 56 levels. The holy physique and holy
strength of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha
III stuns the world!
Although the Supreme Holy Vajra Pestle was lifted off the Golden Step,
there was another 280-pound exam pestle on another Golden Step on the floor.
This pestle also had to be lifted off the Golden Step before the Exam could go
forward. In fact, everyone knew that no one on site could lift this pestle with
one hand off the Golden Step. Even the Strongest Man in Asia Lu Xiao could only
lift the weight of 226 pounds at his maximum limit the prior December. Today,
all the strong men on site enthusiastically came forward to lift this Vajra
Pestle. Among these people were some who could lift 700-800 pounds with two
hands in a normal weightlifting competition. Surprisingly, they could not lift
280 pounds with one hand today. In the end, only H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III
was able to lift this pestle off the Golden Step with one hand. The Dharma
Assembly of the Exam was finally able to proceed.
This unexpected incident that happened before the exam has brought a
mysterious and surprisingly joyful discovery. In turns out the rejuvenation
achieved by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III was not limited to
the physical appearance, but also included the inner properties. The youthful
qualities of His Holiness the Buddha are very many times more than that of
young people.
Kaichu Jiaozun of the World Buddhism Association Headquarters, a disciple
of H.H. Dorje Chang
Buddha III, said, “I dare say for certain here, except for H.H.
Dorje Chang Buddha III who has such holy power, any Dharma king, great rinpoche
or Dharma master in this world cannot even think about lifting the Supreme Holy
Vajra Pestle one bit!” Kaichu Jiaozun has never practiced any kind of exercises
or strength training to improve His physical well-being or learned any martial
arts. He is simply a scholarly person who cultivates His conduct, practices
meditation and Dharma. This elderly Holy Guru is only two years from 90 years
old, and His body weight is less than 190 pounds. Three of His fingers are
deformed due to an old injury. Yet surprisingly, He was able to use his crippled
hand to lift an Elementary Level Holy Person Pestle onto the Platform according
to the Dharma rules, surpassing 16 levels. It is proven that a holy person
who has attained a high level of realization does possess supernormal physical
condition and strength. Ten years ago, this elderly Holy Guru publicly
demonstrated His inner strength from practicing Corpse Pose Tummo Concentration
Dharma transmitted by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. His abdomen emits heat reaching 92
degrees Celsius and an egg that was placed on His abdomen was cooked.
Surprisingly, at the age of 88 now, He was able to lift the Vajra Pestle with
one hand and surpassed the strongest man in Asia Lu Xiao by 14 levels. Can this
be done by a human being? It can only be said that this is a god!
People attending the Dharma Assembly unanimously recognized that Lifting
the Pestle onto the Platform is the most direct testing mechanism to
distinguish between true and false Buddha Dharma, or true and false holy ones.
It can be clearly seen who is an ordinary person and who is a holy one simply
by means of Lifting the Pestle onto the Platform. What is most incomprehensible
is why the physique and strength of professional strong men, who do strength
training every day, would be incomparable to that of someone who does none of
that strength training but only cultivates His conduct and practices
meditation?
For example, Lu Xiao represented China in the World’s Strongest Man
Competition in Malaysia and won the Championship in November 2014. In 2017, he
pulled a 184-ton train forward for 20 meters in a New Year’s Gala that was
broadcast on TV in Liaoning. On December 27, 2019, at the age of 36 and with
the body weight of 350 pounds, he lifted the Pestle onto the Platform in
Shenyang, and successfully surpassed his standard by two levels. Yet an elderly
Holy Buddhist Guru who is almost 90 years old, and with a body weight between
180 and 190 pounds, was able to surpass Lu Xiao by 14 levels! His Master, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III,
is even more inconceivable. Except for one with the innate quality of a Buddha,
who could have achieved that? Believe it or not, the fact is right there. No
tricks could be used. That was a direct lift of an actual weight. Other than
marveling at and recognizing the profundity of Buddha Dharma power, what else
can we say? Through this event, the fulcrum supporting all that ambiguous,
mystical and empty talks throughout Buddhist history is finally broken. The
truth has been revealed through the real fact!
