Are we able to have spiritual response after using the charm drawn by Living Buddha Lian Shen?
Let me quote you another letter:
My dear Grandmaster and his wife,
Om mani padme hum,
After reading your letter, I understand that time is still not ripe for me to be a monk. I am doing daily cultivation now. I have read all your spiritual books, and work even harder. One of these days in the future, I will be able to move to Seattle to learn the dharma from you.
First I must thank you, my grand master, for seven years ago a doctor confirmed that I was suffering from a polycistic kidney. The sickness can deteriorate any time, and is potentially dangerous. After receiving a charm of ”not to deteriorate”, My sickness really did not deteriorate, I am very grateful, and wish to praise the master for his endless power......

A famous dharma teacher, who is also a Zen master, always slandered me in his dharma talk, using all kinds of sarcastic remarks.
Once some True Buddha disciples invited him to midland to give a dharma talk.
He did not bother to find out who invited him in the first place.
In his sermon, he ridiculed me as a medium, a tool of god and ghost, a crazy nut...
The True Buddha disciples who were listening to his sermon were out of wit.
They did not know what to do with him, since he was invited.
It is an insult to have listened to some one who have humiliated your root guru.
The matter was not happily settled.
One day.
The Zen master's mother suddenly became crazy. She consulted many doctors, but the sickness was never cured. The dharma teacher held many repentance sessions for her. Strange enough, she cried even more often and longer.
Finally someone suggested to him to seek help from Lu Sheng Yen.
He was told:” Lu Sheng Yen really has quite a few skills, I mean real skills. The charms drawn by him is very effective, all those who used his charms see miracles. All my friends were cured by Lu Sheng Yen. By words of mouth, he is very well known. Although he is in Seattle, a lot of people flew there to seek his help...”
The old Zen master was very shy about this, but to cure his mother's strange sickness, he sought help from Living Buddha Lian Shen.
After three pieces of charm.
The Zen master's mother was fully recovered within a week. She can rest on her own, went for a stroll, took care of herself.
She did not cry any more, did not murmur, did not see any ghost any more...
She can eat and sleep.
Now when people ask him: ”What is your view on Living Buddha Lian Shen now?”
He would answer:” This person really has some mystic power that is unable to explain. I still do not understand the reason. But he is able to cure the sickness, and that is a fact. This is a fact of miracle. I do not wish to comment on him.”
A dharma master who is noted for slandering me, has changed his tone now and only says he does not understand me after I have cured his mother.
I , Living Buddha Lian-Shen wish to make a statement now:
”Those dharma masters that have slandered me, if their relatives are suffering from strange sicknesses that are unable to cure, I will wholeheartedly help them , repaying their hatred with virtue.”
●
The Zen master's incidence reminds me of monks from the Mahayana school of Buddhism, who came to see me.
They said: ”Living Buddha Lian Shen, to tell the truth, we are suffering, and we do not know how to solve the problem, we want to consult you.”
