Gratitude to Namo Sakyamuni Buddha!
Gratitude to the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva!
Gratitude to all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas from ten directions and three periods of time!
Gratitude to the benefactor and benevolent father Master Jun Hong Lu!
Hello, everyone! I am the fellow Buddhist practitioner Yaran. It is with profound gratitude that I share with you my Buddhist experience. The title is: The slaughtered sheep came back to collect karmic debts, the law of cause and effect is real, Guan Yin Bodhisattva compassionately enlightened my husband and me to pass the 369 predestined calamities
Today, to save all sentient beings, I will learn from the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva to spread Dharma. I pray the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva to bless me. 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. I, not my fellow Buddhist practitioners, will be responsible for my own karma!
I was blessed to encounter the Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door in May 2019.
One night in the first half of 2020, I dreamed of a big sheep’s head in a bloody forest. Then I dreamed that my husband went to a medical checkup with one of his classmates. When he came back he told me that his classmate was fine but he himself had abnormal cells in his neck. However, he is fine for now.
When I woke up in the morning, this dream did not attract enough attention. Because I hadn’t practiced Buddhism for a long time, and there was no one to guide me, I had to call a Buddhist practitioner in Australia Oriental Media Group. I told the dream in detail to the Buddhist practitioner. Then, the Buddhist practitioner asked me, “How old is your husband? Is he in a 3, 6 or 9 predestined calamity?” I replied, “Not this year, he will be 43 next year, which is 3, 6, 9.” The Buddhist practitioner said, “That may be the Bodhisattva’s compassionate reminder that your husband will have a predestined calamity next year, so you should help your husband to recite the Little House to resolve the calamity in advance.
I vowed to Guan Yin Bodhisattva that I would recite 21 Little Houses for my own karmic creditor by ascending this sheep in my dream. However, I did not vow to recite the Little House for my husband’s karmic creditor.
Subsequently, this dream suddenly reminded me of an incident 2 or 3 years ago. Once, my husband’s boss would bring his friends to the workplace. In order to entertain them, my husband had booked a sheep at a restaurant in a tourist spot a day in advance. He was going to serve them roasted whole sheep. When I arrived at my husband’s workplace that afternoon, I told him not to kill. I myself had not yet studied Buddhism at that time, but I knew we could not eat living things. Anything that had life, we could not eat. I tried to stop him, but he said he had already placed the order in the morning and it was too late to cancel it. Unfortunately, I was unable to save the sheep.
The next day, a group of us headed to that tourist attraction. We all sat around the table and ate roasted whole sheep together but I couldn’t really take a bite of it because I knew it was sentient beings’ meat. It was not appropriate to eat their meat, or at least not to let them die because of you. So, I didn’t eat a bite, and my heart ached for the sheep. I just ate some cold vegetables. This was the only time I attended my husband’s treatment. As a result, it makes me dream. The bloody sheep’s head in my dream is the same sheep my husband hurt a few years ago!
I thought that since that sheep had come to my dream and asked me for recited Buddhist scriptures, I had to properly ascend it. I prayed to Guan Yin Bodhisattva that I would ascend this sheep. When I burned and repaid the Little House, I did not say specifically to whom the Little House was given. Instead, I said it was for my own karmic creditor. I prayed in general terms for myself as well, but the intention was to ascend this sheep. I felt sure Guan Yin Bodhisattva would have arranged it. Maybe the number of Little Houses I burned and repaid was not enough. Later, as long as my husband returned (We live in two places), at night, as soon as I lay on my bed and closed my eyes, between what seemed to be a dream and not a dream, I could sense this sheep manifesting in front of my eyes. Once I sensed it, I burned and repaid 3 or 7 Little Houses. I didn’t vow a big number. Later, I seldom dreamed of it again, thinking I had already ascended it.
When I was 39 years old in 2021, I was about to face a 369 predestined calamity. In May, when I was passing the predestined calamity, I once again dreamed of this sheep. In the dream, I heard the Dharma Protector Bodhisattva remind me of these words: “Thyroid cancer!” I woke up immediately and was terrified. In the past 2 days, my throat was uncomfortable and I thought it was pharyngitis, but it turned out it was still related to this sheep.
Guan Yin Bodhisattva is so compassionate that She has awakened me since last year when my husband had an upcoming calamity. Bodhisattva enlightened me to help him resolve his upcoming calamity earlier. By helping him resolve it last year, I can relieve myself of the pressure of passing my 369 predestined calamity this year. Unfortunately, Guan Yin Bodhisattva’s awakening did not draw enough attention from me. I really don’t know anything, I am so foolish!
The next morning, I hurriedly called the Australia Oriental Media Group. Buddhist practitioner Chen answered the phone. I told her about the dream, “I had ascended the sheep in the name of my karmic creditor previously.” On her advice, I vowed to Guan Yin Bodhisattva.
1. Take out 108 Little Houses from the total number of Little Houses that I had vowed for passing predestined calamity to ascend this sheep exclusively.
2. Liberate 2,000 fish for myself.
In response to this matter, I recited the Eighty-eight Buddhas Great Repentance, praying to Guan Yin Bodhisattva to help me repent of my wrongdoings and eliminate karma. After that, I stepped up my Buddhist recitations and accomplished my vows in 2.5 months.
Master Lu has enlightened us that the usual period for a premonitory dream is 1-3 months. During this period, it is possible to convert karma by reciting the Little House. When I recited >50 Little Houses, I suddenly realized there were many red bumps on my neck. It was summer, so I thought, “Guan Yin Bodhisattva must have helped me expel toxins from my thyroid gland.” I am really grateful to Guan Yin Bodhisattva! Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door is true! The Little House is a miracle!
Being together as husband and wife, there is the shared karma. I thought that although I didn’t kill this sheep, since it came to me in my dream, it was also my karmic creditor. As a matter of fact, once I dreamed that during the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese chased me and others. We hid all around. Then I saw sheep. The sheep drew the Japanese away. We were saved. This sheep was my savior in my past life, but we hurt it in this life. I’m really sorry for it. Guan Yin Bodhisattva is really compassionate, enlightening me about these karmic consequences. My husband does not study Buddhism and is ignorant. He did not know that the meat he ate was my savior. I am determined to properly ascend this sheep.
After I burned and paid all 108 Little Houses, my voice healed without realizing it. My husband passed his birthday in July and is safe and sound. He was blessed by the Bodhisattva as well! Since he and I are both on predestined calamity 369 this year, I am really grateful to Guan Yin Bodhisattva for not only helping me with my predestined calamity but also helping my husband with his predestined calamity.
Master Lu has taught us time and again that we must become vegetarians, whole vegetarians, and not consume meat. Every piece of meat we eat has karmic obstacles. Sometimes, what we eat may be our own relatives or life-savers! As Buddhist practitioners, we must become vegetarian when we can! Being vegetarian is good for our health, we will not create new karma, and we will have merits and virtues as a result. Being vegetarian is the easiest thing we can do. Being vegetarian for 1 day we can accumulate merits and virtues for 1 day. We should never eat animals that are killed alive, let alone kill them! Karma is real!
In addition to being grateful, I am still grateful! I can never repay Guan Yin Bodhisattva and Master Lu enough for their kindness.
If there is anything that is not rational or in line with the truth in the presentation, I pray for forgiveness from the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva, all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and Dharma protectors. I would appreciate my fellow Buddhist practitioners’ critique and correction!
I, not my fellow Buddhist practitioners, will be responsible for my own karma!

被宰之羊来讨债：杀业果报真实不虚，观世音慈悲点化保佑我和先生度过3、6、9关劫
顶礼南无本师释迦牟尼佛！
顶礼南无大慈大悲救苦救难广大灵感观世音菩萨摩诃萨！
顶礼十方三世一切诸佛菩萨及龙天护法金刚菩萨！
顶礼弘法度众舍身忘我的台长师父！
【编者按：师父在2014年05月11日（上）06:30 《玄艺问答》节目开示：“你拿一块肉、拿个虾，放在桌子上，不放在冰箱里，我问你马上会不会臭啊？整个房间里都是臭味，对不对啊？你就是烧烧熟，外面再放醋啊、糖啊、酱油啊。我问你，到了你肚子里之后，醋啊、糖啊、酱油全部化掉了，你说说这块肉在你肚子里臭不臭啊？”所以要明白啊，我们不能吃肉食，更不能吃活的。2019年6月9日师父开示：“要记住师父一句：天下没有一块肉是白吃的, 吃下去都是业障！” 】
大家好！我是雅然同修，我怀着无比感恩的心情来和大家分享，题目是：被宰之羊来讨债：杀业果报真实不虚，观世音慈悲点化保佑我和先生度过3、6、9关劫
请大慈大悲观世音菩萨慈悲保佑我，我今天为了度众生，学习观世音菩萨千手千眼救渡众生。所以我现身说法，请观世音菩萨给我加持保佑我能够把今天这个弘法转为功德。希望我的分享能够广结善缘，广度有缘。在分享过程中如有不如理不如法的地方，我自己的业障自己背，不让其他师兄们背！
我是2019年5月有幸闻到心灵法门的。2020年上半年的一天晚上，我是梦到一只血淋林的大羊头，接着我梦到先生跟他的一个同学去体检。体检回来先生对我说，同学没事儿，自己脖子上有不好的细胞，但是现在暂时还没事。早上醒来，这个梦并没有引起我足够的重视。因为我学佛念经时间不长，也没有人指导我，我只是往东方台打了个电话，把梦境详细地跟东方台师兄说了一下。然后东方台师兄问我，“先生今年多大岁数？是3、6、9吗？”我回答：“今年不是，但是先生明年43岁，是3、6、9”。东方台师兄说, 那可能是菩萨慈悲提示，明年有大劫，你帮先生念经文组合提前化解吧。
我向观世音菩萨许愿: 我为自己的要经者念诵21张经文组合，来超度梦到的这只羊，但没有帮先生的要经者念经文组合。
随后，这个羊头的梦境，突然让我联想起两三年前的一件事。有一次，先生单位的领导带着他的朋友们到单位，先生为了招待他们，提前一天就在旅游景点的一家饭店定好了一只羊，准备用烤全羊招待他们。那天下午我到先生单位的时候，还跟先生说不要杀生。我自己当时虽然还没有学佛，但我知道不能吃活的东西，有生命的，我们都不能吃。我当时想阻止先生，但先生说，上午已经打过电话，太晚了——很遗憾，我没有能救下那只羊。
第二天，我们一行人去了那个旅游景点，大家围坐桌旁一起吃烤全羊。我真的是一口也吃不下去，因为我知道，这都是众生肉，是有生命的，吃它们的肉是不好的，至少不能让它们因你而死。所以，我一口都没吃，就吃了点儿凉菜，心里很心疼这只羊。先生他们以前请客吃饭，我从来没有参加过，这是唯一的一次，结果就让我梦到了。我梦里的那只血淋淋的羊头，应该就是先生当时伤害的那头羊！我当时在想，那只羊既然已经来到我的梦里，向我要经，我就要好好超度它。我向观世音菩萨祈求说我要超度这只羊。烧送经文组合的时候，我也没有具体说组合送给谁，只说是给自己的要经者，为自己也是泛泛祈求，但是意念里是超度这只羊的。我觉得观世音菩萨肯定会安排了。也许是我烧送的经文组合数量不够，所以后来只要先生一回来（我和先生是两地生活），晚上我躺在床上一闭眼睛，似梦非梦之间，我就能感应到这只羊在我眼前显化。之后，我只要感应到羊，我就三张一拨或者七张一拨地烧送超度，也没许一个大数字。后来，我就很少再梦到它，以为已经把它超度走了……
2021年我39岁，逢3、6、9。在今年2021年5月份过关劫的时候，我再次梦到这只羊。并且在梦里听到护法菩萨提醒我这几个字：甲状腺癌！我立刻就惊醒了，当时很害怕。这两天嗓子不舒服，我还以为是咽炎，原来还是跟这只羊有关系。观世音菩萨是多么的慈悲，从去年就开始提示我：先生有这个劫，点化我早一些帮他化解。帮先生化解灾劫，也可以缓解自己今年过关劫的压力。但是观世音菩萨的点化并没有引起我足够的重视，我真的是什么都不懂啊，太愚痴了！
第二天早上，我赶紧打电话给东方台。当时是陈师兄接的电话，我把梦境跟她说了一下。我告诉她先前是以给自己要经者的名义超度羊的。在师兄的建议下, 我向观世音菩萨许愿:
1、从自己过关劫的经文组合的总数中拿出了108张经文组合，来专门超度这只羊；
2、为自己放生2000条鱼。
另外，针对此事，我还念诵了《礼佛大忏悔文》，祈求观世音菩萨帮助我忏悔和消除业障。之后，我就加紧念经，在两个半月的时间里完成了我的愿力。
师父开示过，有预示梦的话，一般的期限就是一个月到三个月之间。在这段时间抓紧时间念组合有可能转换自己的业力。当我念到50多张经文组合的时候，我突然发现脖子起了好多的红疙瘩。当时是夏天，我想，一定是观世音菩萨慈悲我，帮助我将甲状腺的毒素排出来啦。真的感恩观世音菩萨啊！心灵法门真实不虚！经文组合神奇灵验！
无缘不来，无债不来。夫妻在一起，也是有共业的。我当时就在想，这只羊虽然不是我杀的，但既然来梦里找我，也是我的冤亲债主。有一次我梦到在抗战的时候，当时日本人在追我和其他人，我们到处躲藏。后来我看到一只羊，这只羊把日本人引开了，我们就得救了——这只羊是我们前世的救命恩人，可是我们却伤害了它。我真的很对不起这只羊。观世音菩萨真的好慈悲，点化我知道了这些因缘果报。先生不学佛，无知无明，他不知道吃下的是我的救命恩人。我下定决心一定要好好超度这只羊。
当我把108张组合全部烧送完毕之后，我的嗓子不知不觉地就好了，没事了！先生已经过了7月份的生日，他一直都平安无事。也是菩萨的保佑啊！我和先生今年都是逢3、6、9，我真的感恩观世音菩萨，不仅帮我过关JIE，还帮先生过关JIE。
师父一再教导我们，让我们一定要吃素，吃全素，不要吃荤。我们吃的每一块荤食，每一块肉都是有业障的。有的时候，咱们吃的有可能就是自己的亲人，或者是自己的救命恩人呀！作为一个学佛人，大家有条件一定要吃全素！吃素第一有益于身体健康，第二不造新业，第三吃素是有功德的。而且吃素也是咱们最容易做到的。吃一天素就有一天的功德。大家千万不要吃活杀的东西，更不能杀生！因果报应真实不虚！
除了感恩，我还是感恩！观世音菩萨和师父的恩情我永生永世也报答不完。
以上分享如有不如理不如法的地方，请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！感恩观世音菩萨！感恩师父！感恩大家！
