No. Living beings have very different karma. Some will respond to one kind of dharma, some another. A person must have the karmic affinity to a dharma to be able to successfully practice that dharma. This is why Shakyamuni Buddha taught the 84,000 different dharmas.
Erroneous View #14: THE VIEW THAT THERE EXISTS A HIGHEST DHARMA THAT CORRESPONDS TO ALL LIVING BEINGS
My disciples often say, “Our dharma is the highest. The dharma of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III is the highest. It is matchless. It can save all living beings. There is no living being that cannot be saved by such dharma!” Today I tell all of you that this is wrong. There are some living beings that cannot be saved. Some living beings are evil living beings. They will even slander the dharma. Their three karmas will not correspond to the dharma. Some of them are really demons who want to oppose the Buddha-dharma. Furthermore, in the Buddha-dharma, there is no such thing as a highest dharma that corresponds to all living beings. There has never been such a dharma. Among all of the Buddhas, there is not one Buddha who has such a dharma. Living beings are entities with all kinds of different karmic conditions. One will experience beneficial effects from practicing a dharma only if that dharma corresponds to him. One will not experience beneficial effects from practicing a dharma if that dharma does not correspond to him. Even though there is extremely wonderful dharma, a master who possesses such dharma will not teach that dharma to someone who is not devout enough. Even if he taught that person such dharma, that person would not be able to practice it successfully. Therefore, although such dharma is good, it still cannot save him.
