Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dislocation has\u00a0a lifetime prevalence of 5% to 8% and an estimated incidence approaching 25 out of 100,000 people per year.\u00a0The TMJ is a hinge and gliding joint with a dense fibrocartilaginous disc lying between the condyle and glenoid fossa. Dislocation occurs when the condylar process of the mandible is displaced from its normal location in the glenoid fossa of the temporal bone and becomes locked in an abnormal position, resulting in muscle spasm and preventing mouth closure\u00a0[1].\u00a0Although several theories have been proposed for the etiology of recurrent TMJ dislocation, none of them are persuadable [2]. When conservative management methods fail to cure chronic recurrent TMJ dislocations, surgery will be the last option. However, surgery cannot completely cure it [3]. Thus, it is a karmic or spiritual disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the five Dharma precepts, i.e., not killing, not stealing, not engaging in sexual misconduct, not lying and not consuming intoxicants, I had more or less broken four of them except stealing. Take killing as an example, I killed chickens, swatted flies, mosquitoes and cockroaches, and so on. I have also created a lot of verbal karma, such as cursing and saying bad words about other people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n My jaw was dislocated once when I was 28 years old. At age 65, I started to dislocate my jaw again. At first, it was dislocated once every 2-3 months, then twice a month, and then once a week. One day, when I woke up at 6 am, I yawned and my jaw came off. I waited until the dental clinic opened at 8 o’clock before I got help from the doctor to put my jaw back in place. Then, I went to buy some buns. As soon as I opened my mouth to eat them, my jaw fell off again. I had to go back to the doctor to seek help again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The doctor instructed me to hold my jaw with a bandage, cloth or leather band, and not to yawn, not to laugh, and not to eat with my mouth wide open. I was too embarrassed to be tied up during the day, so I didn’t dare to talk or open my mouth wide to eat. At night, I tied my jaw and head together with a strip of cloth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dislocation of jaw was not fatal, but the pain and helplessness of being unable to eat or speak were really hard to express in words. My family suffered as much as I did when they saw me suffer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In August 2015, my daughter presented me Introductory Handbook of <\/em>Citta Dharma Door<\/em>, Buddhist Recitation Collection<\/em> and Buddhism in Plain Terms<\/em> book 1 to 12. I started to learn to recite the Buddhist scriptures, perform my daily assignment, and recite Little Houses to transcend my karmic creditors. I also conducted life liberation regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2016, I turned 66 years old, entering the age of predestined 369 calamity. One day, after dinner during the Spring Festival, I peeled apples for my children. I thought I should also eat an apple myself. As soon as I opened my mouth, my jaw fell off again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One morning in March 2016, I got up and sat on the bed and yawned accidentally. As a result, my jaw fell off again. I planned to go wash my face first and then see the dentist. When I finished washing my face, I wiped my face with a towel and my jaw was back in place! It was amazing! I was so happy! This is something that never happened before I studied Buddhism. That was also the last time my jaw dislocated. Since then, 6 years passed, my jaw have never been dislocated. I am grateful to the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dear fellow practitioners, Buddha and Bodhisattva are really everywhere! They are blessing us every moment! We must practise Buddhism hard to repay the benevolence of Buddha and Bodhisattva! We must learn the Great Compassion and Great Mercy from Guan Yin Bodhisattva, self-awaken and awaken others, create no evil, cultivate all good, form positive connections with all beings, extensively transform sentient beings. May those of you who have not yet learned to practise Buddhism, do so quickly! Practice the Five Golden Buddhist Practices of Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door to help yourself and your family to be free from afflictions and suffering, and gain happiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Presenter: Dharma Practitioner Han, Gratitude and Namaste!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Editors: Susan and Lily<\/p>\n\n\n\n Translator: Frank<\/p>\n\n\n\n Published: 2022-11-07<\/p>\n\n\n\n References<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n [1] Michael Gottlieb and Brit Long, 2022.
