In the Great Hall of Shakyamuni Buddha at the Holy Miracles Temple in Pasadena, California, a dharma assembly was held to evaluate and distinguish the actual realization power among cultivators. The “Exam of Lifting the Pestle onto the Platform” was administered whereby cultivators who learn from Buddha attempted to lift pestles or weights varying from several dozen to over 400 pounds onto a platform. Unexpectedly, this Exam inadvertently required the involvement of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III who could not refuse the request to resolve a difficult situation.
A huge vajra pestle weighing 420 pounds had been placed on the golden step a few days earlier by Holy Gurus. This vajra pestle had to be moved for the exam to take place, but no one present was able to move it in accordance with the dharma rules that required it had to be lifted with only one hand. The only person known to be able to do that had left town. 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 lift the pestle.” Of course, His Holiness was able to do this. You should read the entire account of this event in the article below.
The test proceeded with many being tested. The most remarkable example was 88-year old Kaichu Jiaozun lifting the 200-pound Vajra Pestle with one hand. Kaichu Jiaozun has also publicly demonstrated his inner powers by practicing the “Corpse-laying Pose Tummo Concentration Dharma” transmitted by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. I saw him raise his body temperature to 198 degrees Fahrenheit. Click below for more.
