Recognitions and Congratulations - From VEN. YUNDENG JIANGCUO RINPOCHE |
I prostrate to the Buddha Vajradhara!
The abbot of the Tagong Lingji Monastery is Ven. Yundeng Jiangcuo Ripoche, the incarnation of Patriarch Milarepa. Everyone knows very well that Patriarch Milarepa was a famous patriarch of the Kagyu sect and a great practitioner of yoga.
Ven. Yundeng Jiangcuo Rinpoche is now eighty-five years old. The venerable Bari Jiasi, a master of great accomplishment, revealed the following in his formal pronouncement that was buried and later unearthed: “In the ‘eight auspicious merits’ solemn hall of jewels, the nirmanakaya of the virtuous Milarepa, a monk who realized profound esoteric dharma, will descend to our place of faith and bring great joy.” As predicted by numerous eminent monastics and people of great virtue and as predicted in unearthed books that were hidden, Ven. Yundeng Jiangcuo Rinpoche is the incarnation of the great master of yoga, the venerable Milarepa.
In order to provide living beings with a model of self-cultivation, the rinpoche cultivated himself in solitary retreat at the Tagong Lingji Monastery for all together thirty-four years. He spent twenty-seven of those years in continuous, unbroken solitary retreat, exhibiting the ascetic spirit that Patriarch Milarepa had. The realization of the rinpoche is high and he possesses supernatural powers. He often easily manifests in different forms or shapes in order to bless living beings so that they may avoid sufferings and disasters, in order to increase the good fortune of living beings and open up their wisdom, and in order to subdue demons and drive away evil spirits.
