STATEMENT BY WORLD BUDDHISM ASSOCIATION HEADQUARTERS
In order that the public truly understands World
Buddhism Association Headquarters and H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, World
Buddhism Association Headquarters specially states the following:
1. We at World Buddhism Association Headquarters will assume all legal liability for the veracity of this statement.
2. H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III is a true Buddha who has been recognized
as such by leaders, regent dharma kings, and rinpoches of various
Buddhist sects all over the world in accordance with the more than
1,000-year-old Buddhist recognition system. His Holiness the Buddha is
also the only one in the history of Buddhism to have received such a
large number of recognitions. The status recognized was not that of a
rinpoche; rather, it was that of a Buddha. In Buddhism, no great
Bodhisattva, great patriarch, or great dharma king is above a Buddha. A
Buddha is the highest leader of all of Buddhism. Moreover, the
accomplishments of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III in the Five Vidyas are
foremost in the history of Buddhism. No prior holy ones have comparable
accomplishments. Such accomplishments of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III
surpass the requirements prescribed by Namo Sakyamuni Buddha in the
sutras. A Buddha does not have the perspective of a patriarch of a
certain sect or school. Rather, a Buddha has the perspective of the
entirety of Buddhism, just as Namo Sakyamuni Buddha had. A Buddha is the
highest one upon whom all Buddhists rely and from whom all Buddhists
learn!
3. Previously, when H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III was still in China, He
was persecuted by some public security agents because He spread the
teachings of Buddhism and upheld justice. As part of their persecution,
Chinese public security agents embezzled a large number of paintings and
calligraphic works created by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III.
Additionally, they fabricated a case of fraud against H.H. Dorje Chang
Buddha III, making groundless assertions involving Liu Juan and Lau Pak
Hun. They then reported that case to INTERPOL, seeking an arrest warrant
against H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. However, after a detailed
investigation by INTERPOL, the facts proved that the case reported by
the Public Security Bureau in Shenzhen, Guangdong was fabricated and
that in fact H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III had not committed any fraud,
either in word or in deed. On such basis, at the 72nd Session
of The Commission for the Control of INTERPOL’s Filesheld in October of
2008, INTERPOL decided to cancel the arrest warrant against H.H. Dorje
Chang Buddha III. Also, during this time, China found out through
investigation that the facts are that H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III did
not commit any crime. Therefore, on June 11, 2008, on its own
initiative, China requested that INTERPOL withdrawal the arrest warrant
against H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. On November 19, 2009, INTERPOL sent
a special letter to H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III explaining the entire
process. For further details, please see the letter INTERPOL sent to
H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III.
4. With respect to the recognitions of the status of H.H. Dorje Chang
Buddha III, the letter from INTERPOL, evidence that H.H. Dorje Chang
Buddha III was persecuted, and other information, please go online to
the website https://ibsahq.org/buddha-en.
We at World Buddhism Association Headquarters take the teachings of
H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III and Namo Sakyamuni Buddha as our foundation,
guiding Buddhists all over the world to learn and practice the
Buddha-dharma so that they will become good people who are unselfish,
benevolent, and law-abiding, who contribute to society and have happy
family lives, and who eventually realize the true suchness of
dharma-nature and attain liberation.

世界佛教總部聲明
為了讓大眾真正地了解我們世界佛教總部和南無第三世多杰羌佛，世界佛教總部特聲明如下：
第一， 我們世界佛教總部對本聲明的真實性，承擔一切法律責任。
第二， 南無第三世多杰羌佛是被世界佛教各大教派的領袖、攝政王、大活佛們根據一千多年來佛教的認證制度認證出來的真正的佛陀，也是唯一在佛教史上獲得最多認證的，被認證的不是活佛地位，而是佛陀。在佛教，沒有任何大菩薩、大祖師、大法王能凌駕於佛陀之上，佛陀是整個佛教的最高領袖。南無第三世多杰羌佛的五明成就也是佛教史上第一，無有前聖可比的，超出了釋迦牟尼佛在經書中的規定。佛陀是沒有哪一宗、哪一派的山頭祖師之見，而就是和釋迦牟尼佛一樣的佛教，所有佛教徒學習受教的最高依怙就是佛陀！
第三， 早年，羌佛還在中國的時候，因弘揚佛教、堅持正義和公理而被一些公安迫害，公安藉迫害私吞了羌佛創作的大量書畫，並藉用劉娟、劉百行捏造出詐騙案情，上報國際刑警通緝羌佛。但國際刑警經詳細調查後，事實證明廣東深圳公安所報案情是偽假編造的，而事實羌佛沒有任何詐騙言行，因此國際刑警在其2008年10月舉行的第72屆大會上，通過決定撤銷了對羌佛的通緝。同時，中國查出羌佛沒有犯罪事實，在2008年6月11日是主動請求國際刑警撤銷對羌佛的通緝。國際刑警於2009年11月19日發專函給第三世多杰羌佛，說明了整個過程，詳見國際刑警給羌佛的信。
第四， 關於南無第三世多杰羌佛被認證，以及國際刑警的函件和羌佛被迫害的證據等更多資料，請上網查閱：https://ibsahq.org/buddha-en。世界佛教總部以南無第三世多杰羌佛和釋迦牟尼佛的教導為根本，指导世界各地的佛教徒们通過修学佛法，讓自己成為一個無私利他、遵紀守法、貢獻社會、家庭幸福的好人，進而悟證法性真如，解脫成就。
世界佛教總部
說 明
國際刑警公函的左下角原本有南无第三世多杰羌佛的住址，為了安全及隱私，在这次公佈的時候特地隱去了，但整個公函的其它部分則是照原件複印，沒有改動一個字符。此中文翻译也没有翻译南无羌佛的住址。
