His Holiness Dorje Chang Buddha III: The Life Story Etched in Supreme Character and Wisdom
In the history of Buddhism, especially in Tibet, reincarnated rinpoches must go through the recognition procedure for their true identities to be determined. The procedure requires the issuance of recognition certificates by at least one Dharma king or a relatively high-level rinpoche of the same Buddhist sect as the person being recognized. It also requires that other rinpoches of the same sect issue corroborations and congratulatory letters. A rinpoche of the Gelug sect must be recognized by the Gelug Sect. A rinpoche of the Nyingma sect must be recognized by the Nyingma sect, and the same applies to rinpoches of Kagyu, Sakya, and Jonang sects. Usually, rinpoches of significant status must be recognized and corroborated by several eminent monastics.
