EMA HO
From the Foreword by The Very Ven. Thrangu Rinpoche:
"In general, at a precise moment in time, when disciples' merit and the lama's compassion connect with each other, the great and genuine beings will give up one emanation body and appear in another. Once again, disciples will be- able to meet face to face with the supreme emanations, and to enjoy their portion of the nectar of their lama's speech.
"Neither blind faith nor unsubstantiated supposition played any part in the discovery of the Fourth Jamgon Tulku. Wondrous and auspicious signs were visible for all to see, inspiring faith. The one who bestowed the recognition, His Holiness the Seventeenth Gyalwang Karmapa, whose omniscience beholds even hidden objects of knowledge, made a perfectly clear prophecy that made it possible for all to see the path to be followed. Therefore, it is important for us to have irreversible faith, and trust both in the one who bestowed the recognition and the one who is recognised as the supreme of emanations, for us to have complete certainty about what has transpired.
"Once their lama has passed away into nirvana, the task of obtaining an unconfused, unmistaken recognition of their lama's reincarnation, is the previous lord's students' greatest responsibility. In carrying out this responsibility, the general secretary, Tenzin Dorjee, and other members of the Jamgon Labrang endured great difficulty without any hesitation, and thereby found the reincarnation of the Third Jamgon Rinpoche in a way that was indisputably free of error. Such events as these, are in general an extraordinary quality of the genuine Dharma, and in particular, they are an ornament for the eye of those with faith that causes the sacred outlook to grow.
"This book clearly describes the process by which the Fourth Jamgon Tulku was recognised. I am deeply grateful for its publication, on this, the occasion of His Eminence's third birthday."
