Can You Claim to Be a Holy One Just to Bring People to Buddhism?









Can You Claim to Be a Holy One Just to Bring People to Buddhism?


Absolutely not! It is an evil view to think that you can justify falsely claiming to be a certain Buddha or Bodhisattva as a skillful means to bring people to the dharma.
Evil View #6: THE VIEW THAT ONE MAY FALSELY CLAIM TO BE A BUDDHA OR BODHISATTVA IN ORDER TO PROPAGATE THE DHARMA
Those with this view think that in order to propagate the dharma and bring people to Buddhism, one may use the expedient means of elevating one’s status by claiming to be a certain Buddha or Bodhisattva. They tell their disciples and friends to spread the word that they are a certain Buddha or Bodhisattva. Those who engage in or approve of this type of conduct are following this evil view.
