Chapter 14 - The Manifestation Of The Guru's Heart Mantra
Lian Chen of Belgium is a disciple with strong psychic power. He
studied with a guru in India for three years and, later in Tibet,
he studied with a lama for two years. In Belgium, he heard about
the Master and took refuge in the Holy Red Crown Vajra Master.
In Belgium, Lian Chen uses his psychic power to cure illnesses
for people. One time, there was a Belgian woman, Debbie, who often
had hallucinations due to mental illness. Lian Chen stretched out
his palm before Debbie and chanted the Guru's Heart Mantra,
"Om ah hum, guru beh, ah ho sa sa ma ha, Lian-shen siddhi
hum."
He willed the light energy from his palm into Debbie's mind, while
chanting the mantra continuously.
Debbie shouted, "I saw it! I saw it!" He asked, "What
did you see?" "It is a man sitting on a flower that radiates
white light. That flower is very beautiful, a huge flower. It can
fly and the man on it can fly too. This is very nice to look at.
It is just wonderful! That man is Oriental, wearing a big, beautiful
red hat, and a black dress."
"Is there also the color brown on the dress?" asked Lian
Chen.
"Yes, two kinds of colors."
"Take a closer look, is there anything else?"
"There is a pearl necklace on his chest."
"That's not a necklace, it's a Buddhist mala for chanting."
Lian Chen said.
Lian Chen figured what Debbie saw was the spiritual light of Holy
Red Crown Vajra Master. That was the effect of chanting the Guru's
Heart Mantra-the light coming instantly from America to Belgium.
This was unimaginable. Although he couldn't see the Master himself,
he could feel the energy getting stronger in his palms and going
out through his fingers. That had never happened to him before.
He was very pleased. Debbie said,
"Oh! That Oriental man reached his hand out and placed it
on my head. I feel very nice and comfortable. Everything is beautiful
like sun rays coming down into my heart. All the negative things
are vanishing. When the sun's rays come, darkness is gone."
Debbie seemed to be becoming normal. According to her family, she
had had serious hallucinations and seen things other people couldn't
see. Some of the things she saw were dinosaurs, little dwarfs, water
creatures in the lake, flower spirits in the forests, and an old,
weird man who came to talk to her at night.
The family told Lian Chen that Debbie had never before seen an
Oriental man sitting on a big white flower.
Her hallucinations came and went at odd times and she alternated
between normal and abnormal reality. Finally, Lian Chen showed my
Dharma picture to Debbie, who pointed at it and said,
"That's the Oriental man on a big white flower. He placed
his hand on my head and treated my illness. That's he for sure."
Lian Chen continued to help Debbie and each time she saw the Master
come to her. Her hallucinations gradually disappeared. Everything
became normal for her. There were no more dinosaurs, dwarfs, water
creatures, flower spirits, or weird old men.... They stopped visiting
her.
Debbie's family was very grateful to Lian Chen because she had
been very sick and weak for many years from the effects of the hallucinations.
In Belgium, she had been to the best psychiatrists, and had stayed
in a hospital for therapy. She had even gone to France to have her
brain waves checked and had been given a total of approximately
one hundred of tranquilizer shots. All efforts were in vain.
Lian Chen told Debbie's family,
"Debbie is very lucky because, when I chanted the Guru's Heart
Mantra, she saw him. And she was right, it was the Master who cured
her illness."
"Who is your Master?"
"He is in America, he is a great Buddhist Master."
"Americans are lucky to have such a great Master living there."
"Yes, he knows the greatest Tantra and wants the people of
the world to generate their best Bodhi-mind to practice to become
Buddhas. Right now, he is trying to spread the Buddhist teachings.
He has a great many of students."
Lian Chen gave Debbie and everyone in her family a male, taught
them how to chant the Guru's Heart Mantra, how to take refuge in
the Master and helped them to write letters. He told them,
"The Holy Red Crown Vajra Master's Heart Mantra is a universal
mantra. By reciting it sincerely, you'll receive proaction from
the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas."
After this incident, Lian Chen was more confident in the Guru's
Heart Mantra. It certainly produced amazing responses. He continued
to use it to heal many people's mental afflictions. As a result,
he is becoming famous in Belgium.
He always told people, "If you want to get rid of your karmic
illnesses, you should recite the Guru's Heart Mantra morning and
night. If you recite it up to two hundred thousand times, you will
have built up a great affinity with the Pure Land of the Buddha
kingdom. Whenever you supplicate, do it sincerely, and you'll receive
a response. The merits received from reciting the mantra of the
Padmakumara can relieve one of sickness and suffering."
Also in Belgium, there was a pregnant woman. Normally she felt
the frequent movements of the fetus. Suddenly, there wasn't any
movement at all. This lasted for a week, then she panicked and went
to the doctor for a check-up. The doctor told her that the baby
was dead.
She was very grieved and went to see Lian Chen. Lianchen asked
her to recite the Guru's Heart Mantra. When she reached ten thousand
recitations, the baby inside her started to move again! She went
back to the doctor, who was stupefied and wondered why the baby
lived!
The miracles performed by the Holy Red Crown Vajra Master in Belgium
were extraordinary responses. People were astonished upon hearing
them.
The Master has mentioned before that the number of mental patients
the Master has cured could fill up trains full of cars. Here is
a sampling of a succession of people: a woman living next to the
Taichung Library in Taiwan, a high school principal, a little village
girl, a Hong Kong movie star, a Hong Kong singer, a trade merchant,
a secondary school teacher, a Catholic nun ...
First, I healed the woman, who introduced me to the high school
principal, who, in turn, introduced the little girl and so on. This
became a long succession of people coming for healing. There were
also numerous other such successions. Now Lian Chen is facing the
same situation as the Master. Debbie brought someone else, and so
on; this chain will continue, without stopping.
This is truly freeing People from pain and suffering.
