Last night, two of our fellow practitioners
shared their spectacular spiritual responses.
1)
Dharma Sister Bing’s Sharing
I had a dream last night. In my
dream, I was with Dharma Brother Kheng at his home, doing our prayers together.
Suddenly, I saw a ball of golden light
descending from space. I realized that it was the light of Heruka, when it got
very close to me. The golden ball of light entered my body through my crown,
and we merged as one. I could feel the many heads and eyes on my body but I could
do very little to control my body after its transformation. I could only move
my hand and I stretched it out to nudge Kheng. He ended his meditation and
helped me stabilise my body. At this juncture, Acho Rinpoche appeared right
before me and he touched my forehead with his thumb. I could feel my forehead
opening up, with a sizzling sound similar to a paper wall being pierced through
by a burning stick of incense. I could
feel a very strong current being transmitted from Acho Rinpoche through his
thumb into my head (the current consisted of numerous scriptures and
teachings), through that opening on my forehead. I felt as if my head was so
full that it was about to explode. However, Acho Rinpoche just continued
to transmit the current into me and he looked obviously joyful. Finally, I woke
up from my dream and my head felt heavy. I felt extremely energetic and could
not return to my sleep immediately. I thanked Acho Rinpoche and Heruka for
their great blessing. Homage to Sun Moon Lamp Buddha!
2) Dharma Sister Cherry’s Sharing
Yen, a good friend of mine,
joined us for prayer for the first time. After which, she told me that she felt
very good and her mind was very calmed and composed. When she reached home, she
suddenly realised that her legs did not hurt anymore, after feeling painful for
the whole day. She was very excited by her unusual experience and asked me
through Wechat whether that was due to the blessing of Acho Rinpoche. Interestingly,
immediately after posing her question, she felt excruciating pain in her legs
again. I told her immediately that it was absolutely true that it was due to
the blessing of Acho Rinpoche that her legs did not hurt any more. However, she
must have a very firm faith in Acho Rinpoche in order to receive the greatest
blessing. If she is doubtful about it, she will end up otherwise. Once again,
she regained her faith in Acho Rinpoche and her legs miraculously did not hurt
anymore.
Tonight, Yen joined us for the
prayer for the second time. Her tears were rolling down her face throughout the
whole prayer session, out of her control. Her body used to be weak and she felt
uncomfortable before the prayer. However, when the prayer came to an end, her
discomfort just disappeared. So, she kept murmuring: “This is just
unbelievable!”
Last nigt, my mother fell asleep
while still forming the mudra of Acho Rinpoche. She had a vision of Acho
Rinpoche appearing in space, giving her blessing. She saw a continuous flow of
Buddha light in the form of a big circle showering her body. Next, she saw a
Dharmapala appearing before her, radiating strong golden light. She woke up
finding herself still forming the mudra of Acho Rinpoche. She could still feel
the great energy even after awakening from her sleep. Her crown and temples felt
tight.
On the very night after taking
refuge in Acho Rinpoche, my father could not sleep. He kept reciting the name
of Sun Moon Lamp Buddha and chanting the heart mantra of Acho Rinpoche, and he
felt so energetic that he did not feel like sleeping at all. When he shut his
eyes, he suddenly saw numerous pillars of light rising from the ground and
reaching all the way into space – they were emitting lights towards all directions.
Next, all the pillar of lights converged and focused on him! As it was simply
too bright for him to stare them in the eyes, he continued to shut his eyes
while enjoying the showering of light quietly. He felt exhilarated beyond
words.
I would like to express my gratitude
towards Acho Rinpoche. Homage to Sun Moon Lamp Buddha, for the greatest
blessing! Homage to Sun Moon Lamp Buddha, for the greatest loving kindness and
compassion, blessing every sentient beings who are suffering in the ocean of
samsara. Thank you, my Buddha Master. I prostrate to you, my Buddha Master.
After their sharing, Acho
Rinpoche commended on the spectacular spiritual response experienced by Bing. He
explained that Bing has a very deep spiritual connection with Heruka, so she
could choose Heruka as her main deity of protection. However, she should not
regard such experience as a true state of enlightenment because she still has to
face the numerous tests ahead as part of the practice.
Cherry had worked in Singapore
for a short period of time. During which, she met Acho Rinpoche, took refuge in
him and learnt from him. After that, she returned to Shanghai, China but she
continues her practice diligently. Nowadays, she takes part in the group
prayers conducted in Singapore through the Internet webcast. Her family and
friends joined her too. She realized that the blessing power of Acho Rinpoche is
omnipresent. They could feel the power of blessing engulfing them every time
they joined the group prayer conducted by Acho Rinpoche. Not only that, she and
some of her family members have experienced spectacular spiritual responses
during this period too. They have since developed a firm faith in Acho Rinpoche.
“Faith is the mother of enlightenment and merits” – we have understood this
golden maxim better through their experience now.
Acho Rinpoche said, physical
distance is irrelevant to a true practitioner. This is true because we have witnessed more
than once how Acho Rinpoche conferred his blessing to Cherry’s group remotely, with
them making their request through the Internet webcast and him giving his blessing
transcending the physical constraint of time and space, with positive results
reported by Cherry without fail.
Homage to my Buddha Master!
Homage to Sun Moon Lamp Buddha!
