H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III is a world-class master artist, as well as the highest world leader of Buddhism—a title neither self-appointed nor unilaterally proclaimed by any individual religion or group: in 2012 the United States Senate unanimously voted to approve the resolution to honor H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s contribution to humanity, and conferred the title of His Holiness upon Dorje Chang Buddha III. H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III is also the only Buddha in the world to have a Buddha Day—“H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Day,” proclaimed in writing by the mayor of Washington D. C. on January 19th, 2011. The USPS approved the issuance of a commemorative envelope in honor of H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Day. H. H Dorje Chang Buddha III has also received countless awards, including the World Peace Prize, the Presidential Gold Medal, the Congressional Republican Gold Medal, the International Leader Award, and the Martin Luther King Award, among others. H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III is also a Fellow of Britain’s Royal Academy of Arts, and the only Fellow appointed in the Academy’s two hundred year history. The fellowship was awarded by the Academy’s President Phillip King, at a ceremony in the British Embassy in Washington. Furthermore, H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s paintings are rare and hard to come by, as they are almost never found in circulation in society. All originals feature a three-dimensional fingerprint as authentication. Experts predict that H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s paintings will become increasingly valuable and unattainable gems with the prestige of national treasures, since H. H. Dorje Chang Buddha III is focusing solely on Buddhist activities, and will no longer pursue painting.
H.H.第三世多杰羌佛的繪畫作品在這世界上是非常稀少的，很多畫家一生中創作了上萬張乃至幾萬張作品在世界上流通，但H.H.第三世多杰羌佛則不然，羌佛創作了非常多的作品，但為了保留精品傳世，羌佛只將大約300幅作品留世，而將自己認為不夠精品的作品一概予以焚燒火化，早年在中國電視台報章雜誌就曾多次報導，因此，現在存留於世的羌佛之畫作成了真正的稀世珍品、國寶級藝術，而且，所有羌佛的原作都加蓋有指紋立體印以防偽假冒品亂世。正是因為羌佛原作的珍貴，所以在春拍之前的預展介紹會上，鑑定家就特別介紹了H.H.第三世多杰羌佛的這一畫作，稱是整個春拍中最貴重的作品。果然，當該畫以1050萬美金起拍時，收藏家們就紛紛舉牌搶奪，價格不斷攀升，經數輪搶奪，這位不願透露姓名的收藏家最終以一千六百五十萬美元將該“墨荷”畫搶拍到手。
