Gratitude to my fellow Buddhist practitioners!
Hello, my fellow Buddhist practitioners. It is with a heart of immense gratitude that I share an example of my spiritual experience since I began studying Buddhism.
In late May 2016, I was examined for a malignant pancreatic endocrine tumor. After hearing the news, I felt like the sky was falling. Life was messed up all at once.
My personality, which had always been cheerful, suddenly became quiet. While at the end of my tether, I was fortunate enough to encounter Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door in July of the same year. After practicing Buddhism and using the Five Golden Buddhist Practices of Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door – making vows, reciting Buddhist scriptures, performing life liberation, studying Buddhism in Plain Terms, and repenting of my wrongdoings and refraining from doing them, I was able to get my condition under control.
However, as I was not diligent enough in practicing Buddhism at that time and did not practice hard enough, 3 years later, disaster struck me again. The cancer metastasized to my liver. It was only at this time that I realized the seriousness of the matter.
Before learning Buddhism, my family was in the aquatic industry. I requested my husband to stop feuding with sentient beings. We can only change our destiny by accumulating more virtue and doing good deeds. He agreed to change his profession. He was transformed into a Buddhist practitioner by me.
In the process of practicing Buddhism, my own state of mind has slowly improved, gradually making me think differently than before. Studying Buddhism is not only for my family and myself, but also to go out and spread the Dharma to the masses, enlighten others and myself, and spread the Dharma to benefit living beings. I am grateful to Guan Yin Bodhisattva!
Through studying Buddhism and reciting Buddhist scriptures and reciting the Little House to eliminate karma and pay off debts, the karmic obstacles in my body have gradually been removed. I am healthy. I have also learned that virtuous things must be shared with others. I will definitely convince sentient beings to practice Buddhism using my experiences so that more sentient beings can believe in the Dharma and in the Guan Yin Bodhisattva’s Citta Dharma Door.
Since I have studied Buddhism, I have recited Buddhist scriptures, made vows, released living beings, and studied Buddhism in Plain Terms. One day I occasionally encountered one of Master’s teachings on how to make a vow if a beginner with a serious illness or cancer wants to recover.
Master Lu mercifully warned that if one is not in good health, including seriously ill patients and patients with cancer, one must make the following great vows in order to recover:
“First, live a vegetarian lifetime. Second, don’t kill animals for the rest of life. Third, liberate 10,000 fish. Fourth, vow to recite 1,000 Little Houses to pay off one’s karmic debts. Fifth, after recovering, convince sentient beings to practice Buddhism using one’s experiences to save sentient beings.” When you have cancer or a serious illness, you must do these items. It’s useless if you can’t do them, and it’s useless for you to make any big vows (Wenda20160527 22:58).
As soon as I finished reading this enlightenment, I offered incense to Bodhisattva to make these 5 great vows on New Year’s Day 2019 with slight modification:
1. Liberate 200 turtles a year;
2. Recite a certain number of Eighty-eight Buddhas Great Repentance;
3. Transform 100 people into Buddhists a year;
4. Spend the rest of my life encouraging others to learn Buddhism and cultivate their minds, to propagate the Dharma to help others, and to never stop;
5. Study Buddhism in Plain Terms consistently every day.
Every time I went for a checkup, the tumor indicators dropped down time by time. Finally, all indicators were normal. I slowly recovered.
My sincere gratitude goes out to Guan Yin Bodhisattva for bringing us such a good Dharma Door. I am grateful to Master Lu for teaching us the Five Golden Buddhist Practices, the Guan Yin Bodhisattva’s nectar of Dharma teachings, so that I can say goodbye to my sick body, have a strong body and soul, and even more so, a strong heart of compassion for all sentient beings. I am grateful to my fellow Buddhist practitioners and friends who introduced me to Buddhism!
Guan Yin Bodhisattva hears the voice to save suffering and heals the sick and the needy when we pray. Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door is true. Today I am sharing my own experience with you, which is to make us understand the truth of life. I am grateful to Guan Yin Bodhisattva!
On earth all things cannot be taken away, only karma stays with us. We have to learn to let go and grasp every present moment. It is too unworthy if we spend our lives in endless demands and afflictions. We can only achieve true happiness when we are free from afflictions! I feel very comfortable and warm in this big Buddhist family. Buddhist practitioners are kind and friendly. We are not relatives but superior to relatives! Grateful to Guan Yin Bodhisattva!
In May 2019 I had the honor of attending Master Lu’s Buddhist Conference in Singapore. At the Buddhist Conference, I made a vow with the Bodhisattva to attain enlightenment in one lifetime. When I returned from the Singapore Buddhist Conference, I again vowed with the Bodhisattva to live an ascetic life, respect the teacher and his teachings, and follow Guan Yin Bodhisattva to devote myself to one Buddhist practice, and never quit! I am grateful to Guan Yin Bodhisattva and Master Lu!
In 2020, I made another vow with Bodhisattva to recite 1,500 Little Houses to my karmic creditors a year to eliminate karma and pay off debts.
After studying Buddhism in Plain Terms, I understand many things. I must seize every minute and second to recite Buddhist scriptures to repay my debts and never slack off. I am grateful to Guan Yin Bodhisattva and Master Lu!
My fellow Buddhist practitioners, all the above sharing is my personal experience. May my sharing form positive connections with all beings. I hope that those who see it will attend Buddhist teachings and practice Buddhism and recite the Buddhist scriptures with us so that we can change our destiny and be free from suffering. Once again, I am grateful to the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva, and to my benefactor and father Master Lu!
If there is anything that is not rational or in line with the truth in the presentation, I pray for forgiveness from Namo Sakyamuni Buddha, the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva, all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. I would appreciate my fellow Buddhist practitioners’ critique and correction!
I, not my fellow Buddhist practitioners, will be responsible for my own karma!

PROPAGATION
It would be greatly appreciated if you would forward this presentation to all sentient beings you know, sick or healthy. You will accumulate immeasurable merits and virtues. Saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-floor pagoda！

运用“五大法宝”菩萨慈悲保佑我胰腺内分泌恶性肿瘤和肝癌完全消失
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！
感恩龙天护法菩萨！
感恩恩师慈父！
感恩师兄们！
师兄们大家好，我怀着一颗无比感恩的心来分享一下我学佛以来的灵验事例：
在2016年5月下旬，我的身体被检查出胰腺内分泌恶性肿瘤，当我听到这个消息，就觉得天要塌下来一样，生活一下子全乱套了。
性格一向开朗的我，一下子变得安静了。就在我走投无路的时候，菩萨慈悲让我在同年7月份，有幸遇到心灵法门，通过学佛念经后，运用观世音菩萨心灵法门的“五大法宝”——许愿、念经、放生、学习《白话佛法》、大忏悔来忏悔消业，病情还算能够控制住。
但是由于那时我学佛不够精进，不够努力，三年后，灾难再次降临到我的头上，癌细胞转移到肝上，这个时候我才意识到事情的严重性。
回想在学佛之前，我家是从事水产行业的，想当年为了度家人改行不做这个水产生意，叫先生也不要再与众生结怨，我们只有多多地积德行善才能改变命运，于是先生也同意改行，并度化他也走上了学佛之路。
在修学佛法的过程中，自己的境界也慢慢地提升了，渐渐地让我的想法与以往不一样了，学佛不单单是为家人，为自己，要出去弘法度众，度人度己，弘法利生。感恩观世音菩萨！
通过学佛念经，念诵经文组合小房子来消业还债，身上的业障也逐渐地消掉了，我的身体也好了，也懂得了好的东西一定要与别人分享，所以我一定要去现身说法，让更多的有缘众生能够相信佛法，相信观世音菩萨的心灵法门。
自从学佛以来，我念经、许愿、放生，学习《白话佛法》。有一天我偶然看到师父的一个关于重症、癌症初学者想康复该如何发愿的开示：
“师父慈悲告诫，如果身体不好，包括重症病人，癌症，要想康复必须发以下大愿：
第一，终生吃长素；第二，终生不杀生；第三，放生上万；第四，许愿经文组合小房子1000张还债；第五，康复后现身说法，救度众生。”生了癌症、重症一定要做这几条的，做不到的话没有用的，你再许什么大愿都没用的。（摘自Wenda20160527 22:58）
当我看完之后，在2019年元旦，立即上香跟菩萨许下了这五个大愿，另外自己还增加了几个愿：
1.一年放生甲鱼200只；
2.许愿一定数量的礼佛大忏悔文；
3.许愿一年度100人；
4.许愿用我的余生劝导别人学佛修心，弘法度人，永不停息；
5.每天坚持学习《白话佛法》。
就这样我的病就慢慢地好了，每次去检查，各种指标都很正常，肿瘤指标一次比一次下降了，真的要感恩观世音菩萨，把这么好的心灵法门普降人间，感恩师父把观世音菩萨心灵法门的甘露妙法“五大法宝”传授我们，让我告别了病痛的身躯，拥有了强健的身体和灵魂，更是拥有了一颗慈悲众生的强大内心。感恩把我引进佛门的师兄、朋友们！
观世音菩萨闻声救苦，有求必应，治病救人，心灵法门真实不虚。今天我把自己的亲身经历给大家一起分享，就是让我们明白人生的道理。感恩观世音菩萨！
在人间万般带不走，只有业随身，要学会放下，把握好每个当下，把一生耗费于无休止的索取，自身置身于无穷无尽的烦恼中，太不值得了，只有解脱了烦恼，才能获得真正的幸福！在这个大家庭里，我感觉很舒心，很温暖，师兄们是那么地和蔼可亲，不是亲人胜似亲人！感恩观世音菩萨！
在2019年5月有幸参加了师父的新加坡法会，我在法会上跟菩萨许愿一世修成。从新加坡法会回来又跟菩萨许愿清修、尊师重道，跟随观世音菩萨一门精进，学佛修心，永不退转！感恩观世音菩萨，感恩师父！
在2020年又跟菩萨许愿帮助自己的要经者每年念诵1500张经文组合小房子来消业还债。
学习《白话佛法》之后，明白了很多道理，一定要抓住分分秒秒的时间来念经还债，从不懈怠。感恩观世音菩萨，感恩师父！
佛恩浩荡，无以回报，佛法人生，我们已经闻到了佛法，遇到了明师，唯有好好的跟随观世音菩萨和师父，度己度人，弘法利生。在我余生的时间里一定会好好修心念经，救度有缘众生，尊师重道，永不退转！感恩观世音菩萨，感恩师父！
师兄们，以上分享都是我的亲身经历，愿我的分享能广结善缘，希望看到的有缘人早入佛门，和我们一起捧起经书，学佛念经，改变命运，离苦得乐。再次感恩大慈大悲的观世音菩萨，感恩恩师慈父！
我的分享到此结束，在分享的过程中有任何不如理不如法之处，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，请南无十方三世一切诸佛菩萨及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。感恩大家！合十
