H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III's Teaching Transformed My life
Life can change in ways we never expect, and for me, the turning point came when I encountered the true Buddha-Dharma of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. What began as a casual invitation to visit a nearby Buddhist center turned into a profound spiritual journey that transformed my health, my family life, and even my business. Through listening to the Dharma discourses of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, I experienced deep inner peace, greater compassion, and a clarity of mind that allowed me to make better decisions in both personal and professional matters.
My Journey to Meeting the Dharma of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III
Life’s fortunate doors often open unexpectedly — perhaps this is the blessing and empowerment of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. I will never forget the day that became a turning point in my life.That morning, while exercising in my community, I met a Buddhist sister surnamed Meng. She told me there was a Buddhist center nearby and invited me to pay respect to the Buddha. I thought it was a great idea and went with her. The brothers and sisters at the center welcomed me warmly, with genuine care that felt like family — so different from the superficial interactions in society.
I decided to join their chanting ceremony and respectfully listen to the Dharma discourses of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. I felt that my affinity with the Buddha-Dharma had matured — this was where I was meant to be. When chanting the sutra, I often found myself moved to tears, repenting sincerely. Every time I listened to H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s Dharma discourses, my heart was filled with positive energy.
Deepening My Practice Under H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III's Teachings
In the past, I was always busy with work — rushing in and out of the Buddhist center without really settling my mind. But as I listened more deeply to the Dharma of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, my mental state kept improving. I learned to manage my time better so I could participate in group learning sessions. Life is important, but learning the Dharma is even more important — so I make sure to schedule it.
On National Day in 2016, instead of traveling with my family, I attended a Great Compassion Avalokiteshvara Blessing Dharma Assembly held by a virtuous Buddhist master. At that ceremony, I truly felt the greatness and authenticity of the Buddha-Dharma. The next day, I finally took refuge and stepped onto the Buddhist path.
After taking refuge, I became even more diligent in listening to H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s Dharma discourses, receiving His teachings on cultivation. He teaches us to reflect inward daily, to repent, and to refrain from unwholesome actions. When I learned of the karmic consequences of killing, I vowed to stop taking life, adopted a vegetarian diet in the evenings, and observed full vegetarian practice on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month.
Health and Fearlessness Through the Dharma of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III
After attending the Great Compassion Avalokiteshvara Blessing Dharma Assembly, I began doing 108 prostrations daily and have continued this practice ever since. My protruding belly disappeared, my physique became healthier, and my previously high blood pressure stabilized.
Before, I would feel anxious, fearful, and even tremble when flying or driving long distances. Now, I can travel by plane overseas with complete ease. My sleep also improved — now I recite the name of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III before bed, and I sleep soundly until morning.
Business Success and Family Happiness Following H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III's Dharma
Some people think that learning the Dharma takes too much time and will harm one’s business. In my case, my business actually improved after learning from H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. Long-term orders started coming in on their own, and recently the city government unexpectedly called to place an order with me — something I never imagined before.
I used to spend little time at home due to work and social engagements. Now, I cherish my family more and spend more time with my wife and son. My son often wants to be with me. My health is excellent, my family relationships are harmonious, and our home truly reflects the saying: “A virtuous wife, filial children, and a happy family.”
Establishing a Buddhist Mandala Altar in My Home
I have personally experienced the happiness the Buddha-Dharma has brought to my life. Therefore, I made a vow to offer support to the Buddhist center. With the help of Dharma brothers and sisters, I also established a Mandala Altar in my home. My family, inspired by my example, gradually began learning the Dharma as well.
Conclusion — Gratitude to H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III
Everything I've shared is my own true experience. I hope more people will have the karmic opportunity to learn the authentic Buddha-Dharma of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III.
We live to be happy — earning money is just part of life. Health and joy in this life are the process, but attaining liberation is the ultimate goal.
