H.E. Queji Jiangyang Qingzhen was a disciple of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III who truly manifested realization. This Sakya rinpoche of great holiness had white hair and a youthful complexion. His silver beard extended below his belly, and a heavenly eye opened between his eyebrows. Through his practice he attained the state in which his whole body was semi transparent. Thus, his three channels and five chakras could be vaguely seen. He realized a state of true longevity equal to that of heaven. The rinpoche was able to fly through the air, coming and going anywhere with total ease and control.
When he received from H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III an inner-tantric initiation in the holy form called Drawing Lots From a Golden Vase, the lot landed upon the Xian Liang Great Perfection mandala. The Buddha Master transmitted to him the Lion Vajra Dharma and the highest great dharma called the Xian Liang Great Perfection Dharma. Right then and there H.E. Queji Jiangyang Qingzhen realized the rainbow-body perfection state.
Witnessing the Manifestation of Supernormal Power by H.E. Queji Jiangyang Qingzhen
One day, a gathering of highly virtuous laypersons and esteemed Rinpoches convened at the Pici Vajra Castle. Their purpose was to welcome the imminent arrival of H.E. Queji Jiangyang Qingzhen, a revered Dharma King and rinpoche of the Sayka sect, who, at more than one hundred years old, commanded great respect. In anticipation of his arrival, meticulous preparations had been made, including the arrangement of white silk hadas and offerings to honor him.
Shortly after midnight, at around 12:30, a wondrous phenomenon unfolded. A vibrant rainbow light appeared, encircling the sky, accompanied by celestial music. Gradually, the luminous rainbow expanded in size, descending gracefully until it settled atop the seven-story building housing our Buddhist altar. As the spectacle unfolded, a figure descended from above.
It was none other than H.E. Great Dharma King Jiangyang Qingzhen, gracing us with his presence.
We paid our respects and presented offerings to him with profound admiration, expressing our deepest reverence through our actions. While tales of centenarians ascending into the skies are often recounted in Tibetan scriptures, never before had we been blessed with the opportunity to witness such an extraordinary event firsthand. It was truly a manifestation of the boundless fortune we have accrued through countless lifetimes. How could one not be moved to tears by such a profound occurrence?
Truly, we stood assembled in the concrete courtyard below, with an uninterrupted view of the elder Dharma King’s descent from the sky to the rooftop. Although our sight was briefly obscured by the building’s roof, within moments, we beheld the elder Dharma King’s graceful descent from the top of the seven-story building to the ground below. His descent, with arms outstretched and legs slightly bent, resembled the elegant flight of an eagle—a spectacle beyond the capabilities of an ordinary person.
The following day, the Dharma King of the Sayka sect bestowed teachings upon us and initiated us, imbuing us with profound compassion. During the initiation ceremony, as we held a one-foot-long vajra in our hands, we experienced its boundless and awe-inspiring power, unable to control its movements. The ensuing mandala states were marvelously magnificent.
As the initiation ceremony drew to a close, the sound of ringing bells suddenly filled the air, and an attendant announced the arrival of ‘His Holiness the Great Master.’ In response, H.E. Dharma King Jiangyang Qingzhen promptly descended from his dharma seat and prostrated himself on the ground. Although we were initially uncertain about the significance of this auspicious moment, we followed suit, believing it might herald the arrival of Guru Padmasambhava. However, upon raising our heads, we beheld not Guru Padmasambhava but H.H. Master Wan Ko Yee (H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III). Sensing our confusion, H.E. Dharma King Jiangyang Qingzhen reassured us, declaring, “Do not harbor doubts. H.H. Master Yee is the illustrious Buddha Vajradhara Great Dharma King—His Holiness Wan Ko Yeshe Norbu Holiest Tathagata (H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III).”
