Today, with immense gratitude in my heart, I share my firsthand experience of helping my son recover from epilepsy through Buddhist practice and chanting Buddhist scriptures.
In 2004, when my 17-year-old son started experiencing seizures, he was diagnosed with epilepsy (癫痫病) after undergoing electroencephalogram testing at the hospital. These three Chinese characters struck me like a bolt from the blue, leaving me speechless with overwhelming grief. The memory of my cousin, who lived in a rural area and succumbed to this condition, haunted me. He suffered from seizures and passed away in his own home restroom when he was in his thirties, leaving behind 3 children, the youngest being only 3 years old, which was truly heartbreaking. Fueled by determination, I pledged to do everything in my power to save my son, praying fervently for his swift recovery.
In 2014, I was fortunate enough to encounter the Guan Yin Bodhisattva’s Dharma Door, the Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door. After watching Master Lu’s Dharma teachings videos repeatedly and listening to his recorded sermons, I realized that there was hope for my son! I learned that I could save my son by employing the “Three Golden Buddhist Practices” – making vows, reciting Buddhist scriptures, and performing life liberation.
I made vows to Guan Yin Bodhisattva:
1. Be vegetarian for life.
2. Respect my teachers and the teachings, and diligently practice Buddhism without ever turning back.
3. Recite Little Houses for my son’s karmic creditors (not remember the exact number).
4. Liberate 5000 fish.
5. Publicly share my son’s recovery story once he is cured, spreading the Dharma and benefiting others.
I prayed to the Bodhisattva to compassionately bless my son to recover from epilepsy soon.
After making these vows, I began waking up at 4-5 o’clock every morning to engage in my daily recitations. I recited Buddhist scriptures and Little Houses, then proceeded to perform daily recitations specifically for my son. Despite managing my family business during the day, I persisted in my recitations and efforts to transform sentient beings. I was pleasantly surprised to observe that my son’s seizure frequency gradually decreased.
In 2019, when my son, at the age of 32, experienced a seizure while driving on the highway, he regained consciousness to find the car safely parked on the side of the road, both himself and the vehicle unharmed. I deeply understood that this was all due to the compassionate blessings of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, protecting him from harm!
Before 2021, my son would often experience brief moments of unconsciousness. However, since he experienced a minor, mild seizure in 2021 at the age of 34, he has not had any seizures since then. This fills me with immense joy and gratitude. Gratitude to Guan Yin Bodhisattva!
In 2021, my son was hospitalized due to high blood sugar levels. After 5 days in the hospital with his blood sugar and blood pressure remaining high, I transferred my merits and virtues to him. On the 6th day, both his blood sugar and blood pressure decreased, and on the 7th day, he was discharged from the hospital. After discharge, he received insulin injections, and by the year 2023, he no longer needed medication. His blood sugar and blood pressure returned to normal. However, his father was diagnosed with high blood sugar and high blood pressure and is still taking medication.
Over the past 6 years, I have recited a total of thousands of Little Houses for my son’s karmic creditors. Through my strenuous efforts over these many years, I have finally managed to cure my son’s epilepsy.
I deeply understand that encountering Buddhism was what cured my son’s illness. This realization fills me with confidence and strengthens my resolve. Both my son and I have benefited from encountering the Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door, and I eagerly share this transformative method of Buddhist practice with others whenever I can.
Those who possess faith, commitment, and take action will undoubtedly reap the benefits, while those who lack belief can only be subject to their own destiny. In 2018, my cousin’s 28-year-old daughter tragically choked to death during a meal due to a seizure caused by epilepsy. In fact, back in 2015, I had invited her to join me at a Dharma Conference in Hong Kong, but she declined. Looking back on it now, if she had attended the conference and engaged in Buddhist practices, perhaps three years later, she would still be with us. It’s truly regrettable!
After practicing Buddhism, we have not only recited Buddhist scriptures but also gained a deeper understanding of Buddhist teachings. Studying Master Lu’s Buddhism in Plain Terms and listening to His radio lectures have made me realize how many mistakes I’ve made in the past and taught me how to cultivate and practice. Now, as I apply the Five Golden Buddhist Practices I find myself benefiting more and more. Understanding Master Lu’s Buddhism in Plain Terms has also made it easier for me to transform others!
I am grateful to Sakyamuni Buddha for imparting such profound Buddhist teachings to us. I am grateful to Guan Yin Bodhisattva for introducing us to such a precious Dharma Door in this world. I am grateful to our great and compassionate Master for coming to this world to save countless suffering beings. I am grateful to all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas for not only saving my son, saving me, but also saving our entire family! We are so fortunate and blessed to encounter the right Dharma! I aspire to become one of the hands and eyes of Guan Yin Bodhisattva, diligently practicing Buddhism, spreading the Dharma, and helping more sentient beings having affinity with Buddha to transcend suffering and change their destinies!
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, Dharma protectors, and Master Jun Hong Lu.
I would appreciate my fellow Buddhist practitioners’ critique and correction! I, not my fellow Buddhist practitioners, will be responsible for my own karma!

精进学佛六年改变命运，患家族遗传性癫痫病的儿子完全康复
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菩萨！感恩师父！感恩师兄们！
今天，我怀着无比感恩的心来分享我通过学佛念经帮助儿子癫痫病康复的亲身经历。
2004年，17岁的儿子开始发病，在医院通过脑电图检测确诊为癫痫病。这三个字我听了犹如晴天霹雳，欲哭无泪，痛苦万分。因为我家族里有人因患这种病症往生了，是我家在农村的堂哥，他30多岁时在自家厕所发病离开了人世，留下三个孩子，最小的儿子才3岁，非常可怜。我心心念念想着救儿子，希望他能早日康复。
2014年，我有幸遇到观世音菩萨的心灵法门，我一遍一遍地看师父的弘法视频、反复听师父的录音开示后，我知道我儿子有救了！通过运用“三大法宝”——许愿、念经、放生来救儿子，我许愿终生吃素、尊师重道，一门精进，永不退转；为儿子的要经者念经文组合小房子（许愿的张数不记得了）、放生5000条鱼；儿子病好现身说法，弘法度众，求菩萨慈悲，保佑我儿子的癫痫病能够早日康复。许愿后我每天早上四五点钟就起床做功课，念经文组合小房子，做完功课后再为儿子念功课。我在家族企业中做业务，白天跑市场，一边念经一边度人，我惊喜地发现，儿子犯病的频率越来越少。
2019年我儿子32岁，他驾车在高速公路上突然发病，当他醒过来时，发现车子靠在了路边，人和车都安然无恙，我深知这都是佛菩萨的慈悲，保佑他没有出事啊！
2021年之前，儿子经常会有几秒钟的昏迷。2021年以后34岁的儿子又发作一次小小的、轻微的癫痫以后，至今没有发病过，真的非常法喜。感恩观世音菩萨！
2021年儿子因为血糖高住院治疗，在医院5天血糖血压都降不下来，我给他转了功德后，第6天他的血糖与血压都降下来了，第7天出院了。出院后打胰岛素，到今年2023年不用再吃药了，血糖、血压都恢复了正常。而他父亲查出了高血糖和高血压还在吃药。
六年来，我念的经文组合小房子累计已有几千张了，通过我这么多年的艰辛努力，终于把我儿子的癫痫病念好了。我深知，因为我遇到了佛法，才医好了我儿子的病，这让我信心满满，道心更加坚定，我和儿子因为遇到心灵法门受益，这么好的学佛改命之法我见人就分享。有信愿行的人一定会受益，而不相信的人只能走自己的命运。2018年，我堂哥28岁的女儿在吃饭时因癫痫病发作噎死了。其实早在2015年我去参加香港法会时曾邀请她一同前往，但她没有去。想一想如果她当年去参加法会并学佛念经，也许三年后她不会走掉，真的太可惜了！
我们学佛后不仅仅是念经，还懂得了很多佛理。学习师父的《白话佛法》和广播讲座让我明白，自己曾经做错了太多事情，知道了自己应该怎么去修心修行，现在运用“五大法宝”越来越受益。对师父的《白话佛法》读懂理解后，度人也变得越来越顺利了！
感恩释迦牟尼佛传给我们这么好的佛法，感恩观世音菩萨带给我们人间这么殊胜的心灵法门，感恩伟大慈悲的师父来人间救度了全世界那么多的苦难众生。感恩诸佛菩萨不但救了我儿子，救了我，也救了我们全家！能够遇到正法，我们是多么的幸运和有福气啊！我要做大慈大悲观世音菩萨的千手千眼，精进学佛、弘法度众，帮助更多的有缘众生离苦得乐、改变命运！
以上分享如有不如理不如法之处，祈请南无释迦牟尼佛慈悲原谅，祈请南无大慈大悲救苦救难广大灵感观世音菩萨慈悲原谅，请诸佛菩萨及龙天护法菩萨慈悲原谅，请师父慈悲原谅。我自己的业障自己背，不让师兄们背。
