VEN. ANGWANG KHYENTSE RINPOCHE
Ven. Angwang Khyentse Rinpoche is the abbot of Gensa Temple of the Sakya sect. The eighty-seven- year- old rinpoche is the key successor to the dharma lineage passed onto him by H.H. Dzongsar Khyentse Chokyi Lodro II, who was the most virtuous practitioner in all of Tibet. The rinpoche, who is in solitary retreat on a long-term basis, is deeply respected by all of the monasteries of the Sakya sect. He possesses supernatural powers, such as the ability to generate inner-heat from his belly that can thoroughly cook an egg within a few minutes. His tummo (inner-heat) powers are second only to H.E. Kaichu Rinpoche.
CONGRATULATIONS
Greatest leader of Buddhism, H.H. Wan Ko Yeshe Norbu:
With
extreme happiness, I sincerely convey my utmost respect and praise for the
descent of the ancient Buddha into this world! This is the good fortune of all
living beings. The one book A Treasury of True Buddha-Dharma is enough to
provide living beings with endless benefits. The ways to liberation are all in
this book! Only the wisdom of the ancient Buddha, Dorje Chang Buddha, could
produce such a textbook that enables people to understand and directly realize
the Buddha-dharma!
I thank
H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Wan Ko Yeshe Norbu for giving living beings such a
source of good fortune and wisdom!
