To all living beings within Buddhism, who are our relatives and friends: H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha IIIYangwo Wan Ko Yeshe Norbu, the Wish-Fulfilling Jewel Holy One, has taken action that spreads and makes grander the true Buddha-dharma. How wonderful! Thus, I specially send this congratulatory letter. The book A Treasury of True Buddha-Dharma, which shows mastery of the Five Vidyas, is like countless brilliant lights in a rare holy world, illuminating our world, benefiting living beings, and providing happiness to living beings. The good reputation of this book will spread among those who learn Buddhism around the world. His Holiness has achieved a level of mastery of all Five Vidyas, including painting and calligraphy, never attained by any of the ancients. Even persons of great virtue have never seen the accomplishments contained in this precious book. May all who have the karmic affinity to read it become accomplished in the dharma, attain the great and unhindered mind, and realize the truth.

The present Dharma King Rabjam is the seventh Dharma King Rabjam. His birth on an auspicious day in 1966 in Qiangdiga, India caused the appearance of auspicious signs. H.H. the sixteenth Great Jewel Dharma King recognized him as the incarnation of H.E. the sixth Dharma King Rabjam and performed an enthronement ceremony for him. In the year of 2007, as requested by the International Buddhism Sangha Association, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III recognized H.E. the seventh Dharma King Rabjam as the incarnation of Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche.
When H.E. Rabjam Rinpoche was fifteen years old, he was tonsured by H.E. Dharma King Trulshik of the Nyingma sect and entered the monastic life. At the age of twenty, the rinpoche received the upasampada (complete set of precepts given to a monk who enters the order) from H.E. Dharma King Trulshik. He later learned from many extremely holy masters, especially from his root master, H.H. Dharma King Dilgo Khyentse, and from H.H. the fourteenth Dalai Lama, H.H. Sakya Trizin, H.H. the sixteenth Great Jewel Dharma King, H.E. Dharma King Chogye Trichen, H.H. Dharma King Penor of the Nyingma sect, and H.E. Kalu Rinpoche of the Shangpa Kagyu. He finally became a vajra master and famous dharma king of the unbroken Nyingma lineage.
Currently, besides building monasteries, H.E. Dharma King Rabjam is propagating the dharma and benefiting living beings around the world. He also is responsible for supervising and training Khyentse Yangsi Rinpoche, who is the incarnation of H.H. Dharma King Dilgo Khyentse.
