How H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s Teachings Freed Me from Depression

I used to suffer from depression—sensitive, suspicious, and emotionally unstable. For years, I searched for meaning and healing through various Buddhist practices but found no real relief. Everything changed when I encountered the teachings of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. Through reading the book H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III-A TREASURY OF TRUE BUDDHA-DHARMA, I discovered authentic Buddha-Dharma that not only transformed my understanding of Buddhism but also led me to completely overcome my depression. This article shares my personal journey from darkness to light, made possible by the true teachings of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III.

Battling Depression and the Search for Meaning

I used to suffer from depression—sensitive, suspicious, and emotionally unstable.

A single comment, a glance, a gesture from others, or even a change in weather could sway my mood. My life was shrouded in confusion. I felt like a walking corpse, unable to summon the energy to do anything.

I often asked myself:

  • “What is the purpose of life?”
  • “Is eating, drinking, and having fun really all there is to it?”
  • “How can I realize my true value?”

These thoughts constantly attacked my mind, like ropes binding me tightly.

My First Encounter with Buddhism

In 1999, a friend told me that learning Buddhism could help dissolve my confusion and suffering. I began reading some Buddhist scriptures, trying to find answers. But with my limited knowledge, I barely understood the texts, let alone grasp their deeper meanings.

The scriptures described the Western Pure Land as a place where whatever one thinks of—clothing or food—appears instantly. There is no suffering, only happiness and bliss. I longed to go there. I heard that chanting the Buddha’s name was a simple and convenient path to liberation—just chant with a focused mind, and you could be reborn in the Pure Land.

Driven by hope, I ignored housework and even my children, and focused entirely on chanting, praying that Namo Amitabha Buddha would take me to the Pure Land.

At first, I experienced inner peace and believed my depression was cured. But as time went on, nothing changed—I was still in the mundane world, and the emptiness returned.

Misguided Efforts and Deeper Confusion

Desperate for results, I turned to various so-called “Buddhist books” written in everyday language, hoping to find something easier to understand than classical scriptures.

However, without proper understanding, I couldn’t distinguish between authentic teachings and misleading ones. My views grew distorted without me realizing it. My habits and emotional turmoil remained, and my family grew increasingly concerned.

Eventually, I lost faith. I began to question whether Buddhism was real at all. Sadly, my depression came back even worse than before.

Discovering the True Buddha-Dharma

How H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Changed My Life

Ten years later, everything changed. I encountered a sacred book that would transform my life—H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III-A TREASURY OF TRUE BUDDHA-DHARMA

This was not just another book. It was a beacon of truth that cleared the dark clouds in my heart and illuminated my soul.

The book offers a comprehensive and systematic introduction to Buddhism: its origin, history, lineage, and etc. It provided me with a solid foundation and clear understanding of the true essence of Buddhism.

But the most astonishing revelation was this:

H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, a true Buddha, has descended into Saha world, restoring the authentic Dharma lineage of Namo Shakyamuni Buddha for the first time in history.

This is not a vague claim—it is backed by irrefutable evidence and extraordinary achievements across the Five Vidyas (Traditionally, the vidyas are divided into the five major vidyas and the five minor vidyas. The five major vidyas are the silpakarmasthanavidya (craftsmanship vidya), the cikitsvidya (healing vidya), the sabdavidya (sound vidya), the hetuvidya (causality or Buddhist logic vidya), and the adhyatmavidya (inner realization vidya). The five minor vidyas are rhetoric, ornate diction, prosody, dramaturgy, and astronomy. Actually, the Five Vidyas are not that narrow. Everything in the universe can be classified into five aspects of brightness and darkness. To develop everything that is good in the universe and that benefits living beings is classified as bright. That which confuses and is bad is classified as dark. This is the real meaning of the Five Vidyas (Five Bright) of which the Buddha spoke. -Venerable Akou Lamo Rinpoche), as documented in the book.
