Today, to save all sentient beings, I will learn from the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva to spread Dharma. I will convince sentient beings to practice Buddhism using my experiences. May Guan Yin Bodhisattva bless me and help me turn my propagation into merits and virtues. I hope my propagation can form positive connections with all sentient beings, transform the right ones extensively, and awaken more beings.
Hello everyone, I am “Bathing in Buddha’s Light” practitioner. The title of my presentation today is: Guan Yin Bodhisattva compassionately enlightened me to let go of hatred and be grateful
I came into contact with Buddhism in 2018 and started to practice Buddhism and recite Buddhist scriptures. The powers of Buddha are boundless and have really changed me!
I remember when I first started practicing the Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door. One night I knelt alone in front of the Bodhisattva. I recited the Great Compassion Mantra. As I recited it, suddenly Guan Yin Bodhisattva manifested Herself for me: She came out of the image frame and the whole statue of the Bodhisattva shone brightly! Then, Guan Yin Bodhisattva receded back into the image frame. This has been repeated several times! The Bodhisattva’s manifestation convinced me of the supremacy of the Dharma Door. I am really grateful to the Bodhisattva for mercifully saving me!
My parents have spoiled me since I was a child. After I got married, my husband also spoiled me all the time. After my father-in-law passed away, my husband and I moved into my mother-in-law’s home to make it easier to care for her. On the issue of elders’ property and support, I have some views on my brother-in-law and his family.
I remember 25 years ago, my brother-in-law came to my mother-in-law’s house. He asked me something, and I didn’t pay enough attention to him. Who knew I had angered him? It was probably because he had just drunk. He is 1.8 meters tall, so he could pick me up and beat me easily, while I am only 93 pounds and 1.6 meters tall. I was so angry that my body shivered! I had high blood pressure since then because the stimulus was too great. In retrospect, that year, I was exactly 33 years old, coinciding with the age of 369 predestined calamity. Perhaps I should have had a calamity in my fate!
One night in 2017, I suffered insomnia. At 3:00 a.m., just after I fell asleep, I had a dream – the Bodhisattva enlightened me in the dream, “After your brother-in-law hit you, you kept holding grudges against him, making them do nothing well and earn no money. He hit you, but do you know how much karma he took away from you? He didn’t support the elderly, and all his blessings were transferred to you. Instead of being grateful to him, you hold grudges against him. The Bodhisattva also enlightened: It is the person who suffered for you, and you are not grateful to him!” Every word the Bodhisattva enlightened, I understood. When I woke up from the dream, I was in tears. I looked at the watch. It was after 4:00 AM. It was so sad to think that my brother-in-law’s wife had breast cancer. My brother-in-law and the couple were really having a hard time. After the Bodhisattva’s enlightenment, I knew I had to be grateful to them, to everything, and to all my connections!
After I woke up, I called my brother-in-law in a hurry. I said to him, “I’m sorry, I let go of the issue that year, and you should let go of it too. I’ve been having obstructions in mind, resulting in your family doing nothing smooth, to earn no income. It is my fault. I really put it down. I wish your family all the best and great fortune in the future!” I also told him: “In the future, we are a close family. When your son marries, if you need a house, I will vacate the house for you; and if you need money, I will give money to you.” I feel particularly open in my heart after saying this. From that moment on, I was no longer separated from my husband’s family like before! I am very grateful to the Bodhisattva for blessing me with compassion and letting go of my anger and hatred and being grateful!
Now, my brother-in-law has passed away. In 2021, he was walking on the street and had a heart attack, and he died. It happened suddenly. Life is impermanent! At one time, I wanted to transform him, but he did not accept Buddhism, nor did his wife. I recited 49 Little Houses for him, hoping to ascend him to a good place, and hoping that Guan Yin Bodhisattva and Master Lu would have mercy on him so that he could encounter the Dharma, believe in Buddhism and recite the Buddhist scriptures, and one day be free from the six realms and be truly liberated!
I also learned Buddhist theory by studying Buddhism in Plain Terms. As I studied the Book 5, Chapter 41, “Removing Attachments, Leaving Desires”, I recalled my previous attachments and obstructions so I shared this experience with my fellow practitioners. I was very Dharma joy! Studying Buddhism has made me understand many Buddhist truths. It lingered in my heart that my brother-in-law had beaten me. I swore I would not let him go even if I died! After studying Buddhism, I know that greed and anger correspond to the three evil realms. If I hadn’t encountered the Dharma, I would have been reincarnated in the animal realm in the next life. How terrible! I am grateful to Guan Yin Bodhisattva and Master Lu for letting me meet the Dharma and understand karma!
Karmic conflicts are very troublesome, and my mother had such afflictions. My grandma was particularly mighty. In the 1960s and 1970s, our family moved to our hometown and lived in the same courtyard as my grandma. Mom suffered a lot from my grandma’s anger. For many years, my mother always held a grudge against my grandma. After studying Buddhism, I understood it was all about cause and effect. So, I advised my mom, “You have to let go of your affairs with grandma. If you can’t, we can’t go back to our home in heaven!” After that, my mother really let go. The Buddha’s teachings are boundless and true, and I am grateful to the Bodhisattva for saving us suffering sentient beings from the sea of suffering!
One day, my mother told me she had a dream. In the dream, mom was alone in the house, and grandma came over. My grandma welcomed mom into her family to marry her son. My mom called out “Mother” to my grandma. When I heard this, I said to my mom, “Mom, this dream means you have let go. It’s comforting that grandma knows you’ve let go too.” I was so happy for my mom! After mom practiced Buddhism, she even gave me money to help her release beings! I’m grateful to the Guan Yin Bodhisattva for Her compassionate blessing and for getting mom through a big calamity!
All things cannot be taken away from this world, but only karma is with us. If you want to know your past, look at your present conditions. If you want to know your future, look at your present actions! Master Lu enlightened us that there is no right and wrong, only cause and effect in the world! Yes, everything is karma. To think straight and let go, we must remove greed, hatred and ignorance, and remove attachment and discrimination.
In the future, I will definitely study Buddhism and cultivate my mind well. I will recite the sutras and mantras to eliminate karma and pay off debts. I will practice the Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door well, devote myself to one Buddhist practice, and never quit. I will self-awaken and awake others, to attain enlightenment in one lifetime to repay the benevolence of the Buddha!
I hope that my presentation can make more sentient beings believe in Buddhism, study Buddhism and recite the Buddhist scriptures, change their destiny and be free from suffering and gain happiness!
My deepest gratitude to Namo Sakyamuni Buddha!
My deepest gratitude to the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva!
My deepest gratitude to all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas from ten directions and three periods of time!
My deepest gratitude to the Dharma protectors!
My deepest gratitude to the selfless and altruistic Master Jun Hong Lu!
If there is anything that is not rational or in line with the truth in the presentation, I’d like to seek forgiveness from the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva, all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, Dharma protectors, and Master Jun Hong Lu. I’d also like to seek corrections, if any, from my fellow Buddhist practitioners.
I, not my fellow practitioners, will be responsible for my own karma!

今天我学习观世音菩萨的大慈大悲精神弘法利生，所以现身说法。感恩观世音菩萨慈悲保佑把我的分享转成功德，希望我的分享能够广结善缘，广度有缘，度化更多的有缘众生！
大家好，我是沐浴佛光同修，今天分享的题目是: 观世音菩萨慈悲点化，让我彻底放下瞋恨，心怀感恩
我是2018年接触到佛法，开始学佛念经的。佛法无边，真的改变了我！
记得刚开始修学心灵法门的时候，有一天晚上，我独自在菩萨面前跪着念《大悲咒》，念着念着，突然之间菩萨妈妈显化给我看：她从像框里出来了，整尊菩萨像大放光芒！菩萨从佛像中出来后，一下子又退回去了，这样连续反复了好几次！菩萨的显化让我深信法門的殊胜，真的非常感恩菩萨慈悲救度我！
我从小就被父母惯着、宠着长大，受不得半点委屈。结婚后，我家先生也一直宠着我。公公去世后，我和先生为了方便照顾婆婆，就搬来和她一起住。在房产和赡养的问题上，我对小叔子他们一家有些看法。
记得25年前的一天，小叔子来到婆婆家。他问了我一件事，当时我并没有认真理会他，谁知竟然惹怒了他。可能也是小叔子刚喝了酒，他一米八的大个子把身高一米六体重才90斤的我一把抓起来打了一顿。我被气得浑身哆嗦！也许是这次受到了刺激，情绪波动太大，从那以后，我就落下了血压高的毛病。现在回想起来，那一年，我正好33岁，恰逢年龄的369关劫，也许命中该有这么一劫吧！
2017年夏天的一个晚上，我正被失眠折磨得痛苦不堪。凌晨三点多，我刚刚睡着，就做了个梦——菩萨在梦里点化我说：“当初人家打你，你一直记恨人家，使人家干什么都不顺，干什么都不挣钱。他打你，可知给你消了多少业。他不赡养老人，他的福德都给你了。你不感恩人家，反而还记恨人家。菩萨还说：是人家替你受过了，你还不感恩人家！”菩萨说的每一句话，我都知道说的是什么。梦醒后，我泪流满面。我看了看表，当时是凌晨四点多。想想弟媳妇得了乳腺癌，小叔子他们两口子也确实不容易，太可怜了！经菩萨的点化，我才知道要感恩他们，感恩一切，感恩万缘！
醒来后，我急不可待地就给小叔子打了电话。我对他说：“我对不起你，那年的事我放下了，你也放下吧。我因为一直罣碍，导致你家干啥都不顺，干啥都不挣钱，都是我的错，我真的放下了。祝福你家今后万事如意，发大财！”我还告诉小叔子：“以后咱们是亲亲密密的一家人，将来你儿子娶媳妇，需要房子我给你腾房子，需要钱我给你拿钱。”说完这些，我感觉心里特别敞亮。从那一刻起，我再也不像从前那样，和先生的家人们有隔阂了！非常感恩菩萨慈悲保佑，让我放下了瞋恨心，心怀感恩！
如今，小叔子已经去世了。他是前年在大街上走，突发心脏病，人就没了。事发突然，人生真的很无常！曾经，我也想要度化他，但是无奈他不接受佛法，弟媳妇也不学佛。我帮小叔子念诵了49张经文组合，希望超度他去一个好的地方，也希望观世音菩萨和师父慈悲他，让他能够得闻佛法，信佛念经，有朝一日能够脱离六道，得到真正的解脱！
学佛后，我也开始学习《白話佛法》，那天深学《白話佛法》第五册第41篇《去除执着 离开欲望》，我想起自己以前的执着和罣碍，就和师兄们真诚地分享了此事，非常法喜！学佛让我明白了很多佛法道理。当年小叔子打我的事情曾经让我耿耿于怀。我以前发誓：我死了，也不会放过他！学佛后，我知道贪瞋痴对应的就是三恶道。如果不是闻到佛法，那我下一次就会在畜生道轮回。多么可怕啊！感恩观世音菩萨和师父让我幸运地闻到了佛法，明白了因果！
冤结是很让人烦恼的，我妈妈也有这样的烦恼。当时，我奶奶特别厉害。上个世纪六七十年代，我们全家被下放到老家，和奶奶住在一个院子里。妈妈没少受奶奶的气。多少年了，妈妈一直对奶奶有看法。学佛后，我明白了这一切都是因果，就对妈妈说：“奶奶的事，您得放下，您放不下，咱们回不了天上的家啊！”从那以后，妈妈真的放下了。佛法无边啊、真实不虚，感恩菩萨慈悲救度我们这些苦难众生脱离苦海！
有一天，妈妈对我说，她做了一个梦：梦中，奶奶迎娶她。屋里就她一个人，奶奶过来了。妈妈喊了奶奶一声“娘”。我听到这里，就对妈妈说：“妈，这个梦说明您放下了，没事了。奶奶也知道您放下了，真好。”我为妈妈感到高兴！妈妈学佛念经后，还给我钱让我帮她去放生！感恩菩萨慈悲保佑，让妈妈度过了一次大关劫！
万般带不走，唯有业随身。欲知前世因，今生受者是，欲知后世果，今生作者是！就像师父开示的一样：人间没有对错，没有善恶，只有因果！是啊，万般都是缘，我们要想通、放下，一定要去除贪瞋痴，去除执着心和分别心。
今后，我一定会好好地学佛修心，念经消业、还债，好好地修学心灵法门，一门精进，永不退转，自度度人，一世修成报佛恩！
希望我的分享能够让更多的有缘众生相信佛法，学佛念经，改变命运，离苦得乐！
再次感恩南无释迦牟尼佛！感恩南无大慈大悲救苦救难广大灵感观世音菩萨摩诃萨！感恩十方三世一切诸佛菩萨及龙天护法金刚菩萨！感恩弘法度众舍身忘我的恩师慈父卢军宏台长！
分享过程中如有不如理不如法之处，请南无释迦牟尼佛慈悲原谅！请南无大慈大悲观世音菩萨慈悲原谅！请十方三世一切诸佛菩萨和龙天护法菩萨慈悲原谅！请师兄们批评指正！我自己的业障自己背，不让师兄们背！
