Important Replies from Holy Virtuous Ones and Eminent Monastics
Response from the Inquiry Center of the World Buddhism Association Headquarters to Questions Raised by Inquirers
On the Day of January 1 of the Lunar year (February 16, 2018)
Answer No. 1
First replied are the six questions you raised to Venerable Mozhi, which are replied by Venerable Mozhi in person:
“1. I, Mozhi, am Venerable Lianhuakou. I dare not accept the title of great holy virtuous one.”
“2. I have not realized the cultivated accomplishment at the level of Golden Button Grade 3 yet. I am not a non-receding Bodhisattva and do not possess the sufficient qualification of a great holy virtuous one.”
“3. I am not able to perform a true inner-tantric initiation. However, provided with a borrowed inner-tantric mandala, I can confer a borrowed inner-tantric initiation.”
“4. I still strive to cultivate myself and do not possess sufficient cultivated accomplishment to save living beings. I do not accept any disciples.”
“5. What you saw in the recorded video titled ‘Manifestation of Genuine Buddha-Dharma That Is Difficult to See even in One Thousand Years’ is me, practicing the dharma of Tummo Concentration before many people and using the spiritual fire from my body to scorch and cause blisters in the hands of dharma kings, rinpoches, and dharma masters. Here I would like to say I am sorry to the eminent monastics and great virtuous ones and also apologize to those who were injured by the burn.”
“6. On that day, there truly was a person with the title of rinpoche who stood far away and dared not reach and touch my tummo fire. Actually he is not a real rinpoche and feared to be handicapped by the burn and lose face. I will not mention his name here. Actually, I was not contaminated by any demonic mentality and dared not burn any living being to cause the person to become handicapped.”
