To meet with Master Hong Sheng , I had just wanted to help my sick daughter to recover at the beginning. Out of my expectation, however, not only did my daughter return to a normal condition, but also the other issues in life had solutions.

Master Hong Sheng’s Dharma Teachings Helping My Daughter to Recover.

On March 12, 2016 I first met with Master through my younger cousin who helped us to make the appointment to consult him. Before that, due to my daughter’s health condition, I had taken her to the big hospital for several times. One of her problems was that she couldn’t eat well, every time after she ate something, she would have stomachache, and serious abdominal distension made her belly very hard. After checking, the doctor excluded the possibility of something growing inside and just prescribed drugs of stool softeners and probiotics for her. My daughter kept taking drugs and probiotics for nearly one month, though, and even the fruit that could promote defecation was made into juice to drink, her symptoms didn’t disappeared. Seeing from the scan, we could find her belly full of stools. I and my husband were really helpless to see her like that and didn’t know what to do.

Due to the big and small problems at the time, I thought of the Master that my cousin had known, maybe that Master could help my daughter. The date to meet with Master was finally confirmed, but I dare not to tell my husband about it until three days before that. Just as I had expected, my husband refused to go to Kaohusiung with me, for he thought how you could meet another new Master again. Actually several days before meeting with Master, I had thought of canceling the appointment. The very moment when my daughter had a bad fall in the room with a loud noise, I was scared, so I decided I must go to meet Master in any case. Therefore, when my husband repeatedly refused me, I still kept requesting him to go with me until he finally agreed, but just once. In order to test Master, I even didn’t tell my cousin about my daughter’s condition in detail. However, when I first met with Master and had the talk with him, he could tell my daughter’s health problem very clearly. He told us as long as we could fill our daily lives with the pure positive energy of Buddha, soaking in it and keeping receiving Saints’ stable energy, my daughter’s life would take a turn for the good very naturally, even without racking our brain. Master also said I and my husband have common Karmic obstacles with our daughter, but as long as we could make great effort to free from the obstacles, my daughter’s energy field would be influenced and become good naturally.

Do As Master Said, Two Problems Were Solved Within One Month.

Although I agreed with Master’s words when having the talk with him, I was not exactly sure about that. Therefore, after the consultation, I thought I could try the way he told me, meanwhile continued to try others. But about ten days later, Master sent me the message through my cousin that I needed to be single-minded. He reminded me that my husband couldn’t bear that my contacts were too many and diverse. I wondered how Master could know the affairs between I and my husband. So from then on, I wanted to know more and better about Master and the Community of Yi Jue Yuan. Thus I viewed the website of Yi Jue Yuan, read articles of brothers and sisters’ sharings after they learned from Master and listened to the Dharma teachings by Master. Since then, I was more convinced of Master and made up my mind to follow him. To my surprise, my husband even changed completely after meeting Master. Compared to his previous attitude-only promising to go to Kaohsiung with me once, then he would like to do as Master said.

Yuan He Miao Yin was played 24 hours at home every day since we met with Master and about one week’s later, I and my husband began to watch DVDs of Dharma teachings by Master and we would also spend about 50 minutes every day keeping kneeling down to the Buddha together with our daughter with Yuan He Miao Yin Impermanence. I still remember every time when I listened to Yuan He Miao Yin in DVDs of Dharma teachings by Master at the beginning, I could feel energy around my head which made me very comfortable. That was so amazing! Actually I had had headache problems for about 20 years. Although in recent years the pain seldom made me feel unbearable, there was still some discomfort. I didn’t expect that I myself had first benefited from meeting with Master. Now my head feel so light and I feel so nice. Afterwards, my daughter also recovered and returned to normal. I even canceled the subsequent visit. Within one month, two of my troubles were solved. I have stronger faith in Master and his words, “Go deep into Dharma learning with long-time steeped practice.” As long as we can keep the fire burning, no matter how big the ice is, it can be melted.

Before learning from Master, although I thought I believed in Karma and the existence of the six realm of samsara, I wrongly equated doing good things like donating money with Dharma and never thought of having a deep understanding of it, also considered myself a filial daughter and a good-tempered person. While Master said, “One hundred people have one hundred standards of kindness, which would make one hundred different realm of life.” Master’s words reminded and supercised me that I should take Saints as my example, to do more and better.

Master also said having good temper is a kind of giving fearlessness，we don’t get angry doesn’t mean we have good temper, maybe it’s just because the occasions that would make us angry haven’t appeared. Master’s words shock me a lot, because I always thought I was a good-tempered person before. When my husband and daughter angered me, it was their mistake. As for getting along with my husband, I always thought I had changed a lot. It was he, the one who was wrong that needed change. But Master said, “it’s not someone else’s fault, it’s all our own fault. All happens around us reflect our heart as clearly as a mirror. Thus we need look inward, correct ourselves and change our personality.” At the beginning I really couldn’t accept the perception, yet I also told myself that I needed try to chang from inward. When something happened, I would tell myself, “Be patient. Keep calm. Be vigilant of your own thoughts. Don’t let a flame of fury burn off all the efforts. Regard everything as a test and you must pass it.” Doing like that , now I can get along very well with my husband, which is another change in addition to my daughter’s recovery after learning from Master.

Before I thought it was enough for me to help others by donating some fixed money every month. After learning and practising, one of my tasks that I gave to myself is to have a proper attitude and treatment towards everything and every people that I encounter in my daily life, learning to expand my heart-not to be only concerned about my own needs. I hope I can generate good Karma with everyone I meet from mutual communication, no matter I know him or not, I can give warmth to them. Doing like this, unconsciously I found I became more and more popular. When I smile to others, I am always rewarded with their smiles as well. Therefore, I could open my heart more and more, thus the intangible wall of self-defense that existed in my heart before also disappeared.

Master Hong Sheng Saving My Father, Helping Him Be Free of Intubation.

In my tenth month learning from Master, just one week before the Spring Festival this year, my father was sent to hospital for first aid because of his suffering from myocardial infarction. Although he regained consciousness luckily, however, it was just the beginning of his another ordeal. In order to maintain breath, my father needed intubation, for he was conscious, the misery feeling made him keep trying to move the tube away. Therefore, the doctor bound his arms and legs to prevent him from doing so, later even his chest was fixed. Seeing such suffering of my father, I even lost all my power. Afterwards, there were other problems –infection, having the fever and massive blood loss, thus he had received blood transfusion for about 3000CC. It seemed that the day of extubation had remote possibility and I even began considering whether my father would pass away.

By a lucky coincidence, in January I had had an appointment with Master on March 1. On that day I consulted Master how to help my father be free of the hellish life of the intubation torture. Master gave me the enlightenment talks, “That you can’t keep calm when dealing with difficulties means you are not well-practised. Thus you need make continuous effort to take root in Dharma learning. When encountering problems, you should give loving care instead of having worries, for the positive care would produce good energy which would be helpful for you to have deeper practice on Dharma. Then your father will get the same improvement as your progress. While we are easy to forget when things happen, so we must always remind ourselves to calm down. Then things are usually to get better.”

I also told Master, in the matter of father’s illness, I felt my father seemed to own NT$100,000,000. As the creditor came to ask for payment of debt, I was unable to pay up. I had once doubt my ability and thought I was incapable to help my father. Master said, “Unnecessary anxiety is also a kind of delusion. You can’t let it obstruct the axis of your practice, otherwise you can’t get through the test of it. Yet the reason is not that you are incapable to pass it, but you choose to give it up. If you choose to face and understand it is just a test, no use to worry, you would go back to yourself and be clear it’s precisely because you own too much, you must work harder to earn money to pay back. How could you waste time to worry, yet leave the practical opportunity to earn money being neglected? No matter how much you earn, you just repay that you have earned. ‘Good faith moves mountains’. Work hard with such attitude, maybe the creditor would say, ‘ok, the rest NT$50,000,000, you needn’t repay.’ On the contrary, if you waste lots of time on creating uncertain troubles and worrying about them every day, they would ask for interest as usual. That’s not a good deal.”

Master’s words pacified my mind. Then I knew that what I should do to help my father— just having a deep learning of Dharma. Things were so incredible! Only on March 1 did I consult with Master, on March 3, my father had the extubation, and after five days’ observation, when everything tended to be steady, my father was transferred to an ordinary ward. So, after suffering from forty days’ intubation, my father was finally free of it. My feeling was that, how could the life screenplay be really rewrote like that? We had considered whether to have the traecheostomy or not. If extubation couldn’t have been successful, we didn’t know what to do. Especially several days before meeting with Master, my father had a fever again and just the previous day of that, the fever reached 39 degrees. At that time I thought how it could be so difficult to take one tube away. My mother even asked me to prepare for the worst, for after the infection, fever, in addition to massive blood loss, my father was rather weak. However, my father eventually had the extubation and left hospital on Mar 21. How incredible it was! All my family and friends thought my father was pretty luck. Only was I clear it was Master who saved my father. During those days, although all my family and relatives had prayed for my father, actually it did not really help, for we needed listen to the doctor’s advice whether to have the extubation or not. I was so surprised that Master could help my father. I was full of gratitude.

By learning from Master and knowing the community of Yi Yue Yuan, I had just wanted to help my daughter to recover. To my surprise, however, after practising, so many other things changed, the relationship between I and my husband, my daughter’s study, my husband’s work and my headache problem all got better. It turned out that what Master had said, “as long as we take good care of the root of a tree, it’s branches, leaves, flowers and fruit would grow out flourishingly and naturally.(As long as we could change from our mind, everything in life would become good naturally).We are the power to change reflections. When we want other people to change, we must change ourselves at first. As our good energy surpasses others, they would be affected and become good naturally.

At this point, there is all gratitude inside my heart. Thank Master Hong Sheng. Thank the community of Yi Jue Yuan. It’s really such a good community—the right one I eventually find suitable for me and there is such a good Master. Because of you, my life is different. Thank you.
