Chapter 24 - Another Evidence for Remote Spiritual Healing
A certain Miss Ding who lives in 7 Ice House Street, Hong Kong,
wrote me a letter of thanks, which reads:
| March
23, 1983
Grand Master Sheng-Yen,
On the 12th of
last November, I received the two talismans and have used
them according to your instructions. That is, after they were
burnt, they were put into water. Besides, a Tantric shrine
has been set up, and day and night I form the great mudra
for calamity-eradication and chant the Great Compassion Mantra,
retributing all merits to my wife Yu-ying and my son Fan-xing.
It is several months now since I started, and both of them
have recovered a lot. Due to grave karmic conditions and hindrances,
they still need grand master's blessing and help. And of course
it takes time as well.
In the past few
days, I have carefully observed both of them. I can say they
have been very quiet as if they have completely recovered.
So I write this letter immediately to let you know. I first
express my heart-felt thanks and then ask for instructions
on how to study Buddhism for a better life.
My gratitude can
not be adequately expressed by this piece of paper which is
a token of how grateful I feel.
Sun Jia-liang
sends his regards to Grand Master,
With Dharma pleasure

This letter is a wonderful proof. Yu-ying and Fan-xing are two
patients who have long been suffering from mental disorder. Mr.
Sun Jia-liang is a disciple of Master Yin Shun. Sun Jia-liang wrote
to his Master Yin Shun who was in Taiwan in his attempt to save
the two patients. Master Yin Shun asked Master Ming Sheng to write
back to Hong Kong to tell Mr. Sun Jia-liang my address in the States.
After I was contacted, I also set up a Tantric Shrine in my house
and used "the secret trace vajra method" to heal them.
I formed the great mudra for calamity-eradication 108 times every
day. The secret method worked as flying rainbows of spiritual healing:
rays of red light flew across the Pacific Ocean to reach the patients.
Now they have completely recovered. This is very good news. No words
can describe how happy I felt.
However, when one case is finished, another beings. My "salvation
program" seems never to come to an end. When the people are
ill, I feel as if I myself was ill. To say other people is as urgent
as putting out fires-no delay is allowed.
My dear reader, here is another letter:
| April
4, 1983
Grand Master Lu,
Three days ago,
I ordered your book Spiritual Healing by Flying Rainbow and
wrote to ask for your address. The book dealer wrote back
saying that you are not at home these days. So I am writing
this letter to earnestly request your help. My wife, Hong
He, and I are both teachers in a province-run middle school,
in the southern part of Taiwan. Hong He is a graduate, with
honors, of the English Department of a Normal University,
34 years of age, born at the fifth watch, 25th, March, in
the year of the tiger.
After marriage,
we had a baby and we were very happy. However, just before
the Spring Festival this year, the most unfortunate thing
occurred. My wife was at home reading books by Miss Xi Mu-rong
(an artist from Xiu Zhu Teachers School) and by Miss Zhang
Xiao-feng (famous writer from Ming Yang Medical College),
she was intoxicated, and began to live in a world of illusion.
For example, she regretted that she didn't give our child
a happy childhood. Her thoughts ran wild, jumping from one
thing to another. She no longer studied after classes, nor
would she do any knitting or travelling. She indulged in fantasy;
in her dreamland, she is infatuated by Xi Mu-rong and Zhang
Xiao-feng, craving for a way of life like theirs-writing as
they do, painting as they do, socializing as they do. Why
was it that she can't do anything like that? Why was she so
stupid, clumsy, knowing nothing else except teaching English
at a middle school?
Thinking like
that for days and days, she lost control of herself. She trembled
and was frightened as she thought that she was as good as
disabled. Her nerves could no longer support her; she couldn't
fall asleep at night. She began to take sleeping pills which
didn't help much. I tried to comfort her, encourage her, and
told her to be tough and strong, forgetting them all, but
to no avail. The images of the two writers pursued her, appearing
at inconceivable places and at inconceivable hours. She was
becoming very thin and pail, and didn't want to do any work,
not even her teaching job.
Doctors have been
called in, but she would not respond to any treatment. Various
divinations have been sought, but to little avail. One divination
a month ago indicated that two female ghosts are trouble her.
This is quite right. The two ghosts are not Xi Mu-rong and
Zhang Xiaog-feng; that was her own fantasy. We were told to
pray and we did, and again nothing happened.
I have read many
books by Grand Master and know that Grand Master has great
super-natural powers. I intended to draw my own talismans
according to those in your book Spiritual Healing by Flying
Rainbow, but I was afraid that I don't have much cultivated
power to make them effective and that I was not confident
enough as I have never done it before. All I can do now is
to write this letter to request the Grand Master for help.
Please, Grand Master, set up a Tantric shrine and use the
most secret method to help my wife to break away from the
two ghosts and recover her previous graceful bearing. Please,
Grand Master, help her to get away from the control of the
two shadows of Xi Mu-rong and Zhang Xiao-feng, find herself
again, regain confidence in herself, and live a normal life
once more.
I beg you, Grand
Master, to accept my request at any event. If she recovers,
I shall repay you for such kindness. Please trust us that
we are honest workers in education and will not cheat you.
I wonder if Grand Master would save the whole family of us.
I am fully occupied now, teaching at school, doing household
chores, taking care of my wife, and looking after my child.
I feel I won't be able to stand this any longer. I pin the
only hope on you, Grand Master, for now I don't trust anybody
else. If Grand Master comes to help and frees my wife from
the mercy of the two ghosts, I shall worship Grand Master's
photo and remember your kindness for the rest of my life.
Let me beg the
Heaven and Grand Master once more. Thank Grand Master for
your blessing. If possible, let me know when you return home.
I should pay you a visit in person.
Best wishes!

I have these points of explanation to make about this letter:
First, there are many kinds of mental disorder patients and they
are most complicated. There are now countless people suffering from
this who have recovered with help of my spiritual healing. There
are a train-load of them. But what I want to make clear here is
this: it is difficult to fully recover if they have been ill for
more than eight years, because the nerves have been too tired for
too long-an overused spring loses its elasticity. Even if they do
recover, they may look a bit slow-witted. I hope my clients understand
this.
Second, when one is enchanted by something (anything), it is possible
to lose control of one's nerves, for instance by reading, examinations,
love, career, drinking, spotless cleanness, religion and sitting
quietly. This happens when your own mind can't control itself. To
avoid all this, you must live a regular and normal life, with normal
sleep, normal food and drink, normal recreation activities, so that
you are the master of your own life. When anything gets abnormal,
you must immediately adjust it. If you can't return to normal by
yourself, consult a doctor for treatment, both physiologically and
psychologically. Please do not delay it. The longer it is delayed,
the more trouble it will bring.
Third, recently, there are more and more readers who ask me for
"remote spiritual healing" and in my tantric shrine the
number of Eight characters (in four pairs, indicating the year,
month, day and hour of a person's birth used for fortune-telling)
increases daily. I evoke my powers day and night, and perform the
sessions as prescribed. There is one hope in my heart-all sentient
beings, after recovering their illness and sufferings, study Buddhism,
and all of them will attain supreme achievement. This is my sincerest
hope.
