The World Buddhism Association Headquarters has issued a new
announcement to help disciples determine if they should follow a
particular master. They offered the following three “Demon-Detecting
Mirrors”:
The First Demon-Detecting Mirror:
An absolute criterion is to see whether a master makes a big effort to facilitate the disciples to study and broadly propagate the announcements, such as the “Important Replies from Holy Virtuous Ones and Eminent Monastics” from WBAH (the 35 questions with the answers), or not. Any master who does not take measure to enable the disciples to study the announcement well and, rather, only makes propaganda about his/her own articles, writings, books, or other types of undertaking that not only do not refer to the specifics of the announcements but also violate the stipulations in the announcements is definitely an evil master!!!
The Second Demon-Detecting Mirror:
Regardless of what status or title the person you follow as your master has, as long as this master’s grade level obtained from the examination is not a level within the ranks of holy virtuous persons and yet this master poses as a holy person or instructs the disciples to falsely brag or praise him/her as a holy person, this master is not a holy person. Since such a master imposes rules on the disciples to prevent them from having doubt about the master and to force them to correspond their three karmas to the master, this is absolutely an ordinary person and is a charlatan!!!
The Third Demon-Detecting Mirror:
This is about how to recognize and distinguish holy persons. Holy persons of ancient times have long been known through historical records. Regarding holy persons of the current time, only those who attained the grade levels of golden button(s) from taking the written test and the holy test are holy ones!!! On the other hand, those who did not attain a grade level of golden button(s) after taking the examination are not holy ones!!! Anyone who scored a high level of blue buttons can only be an eminent monastic or a great virtuous one.
