Curing of Illness

Dharma talk by Grandmaster Sheng-Yen Lu

She could feel a stream of warm current flowing through her body, and when she touched the tumor later, she was astonished to find that it had disappeared.

Grandmaster shared with everyone about a recent miraculous event that took place involving an Indonesian dharma sister. The disciple had discovered a tumor on her neck below her ear and had consulted a doctor. It was found to be a one-centimeter sized tumor requiring surgery. She was worried as her family had a history of lymphatic cancer. Hence, she came to Seattle to seek the Dharma King’s help. 

On October 20, she made it to the Kalachakra homa ceremony in time. After lunch before the ceremony, the Dharma King blessed her on the crown. She could feel a stream of warm current flowing through her body, and when she touched the tumor later, she was astonished to find that it had disappeared. She even asked the accompanying dharma-lecturer to have a look and he verified that the tumor had miraculously disappeared.

Grandmaster explained this is the result of the spiritual union of the Dharma King with the yidam, and Golden Mother’s powers in blessing the disciple. In the spiritual union by a cultivator with the yidam, the merger of the two effected the manifestation of the powers of the yidam [to perform miracles]. The ability of the receiving party to benefit from the miraculous curing effect depends on affinity or karma.

The dharma sister chanted sutras and cultivated for three hours daily; she chanted sutras such as High King Avalokitesavara Sutra, True Buddha Sutra, and Ksitigarbha Sutra tens of thousands of times. In fact, many people have benefited from the blessing and curing powers during the spiritual reunion of Grandmaster with his yidam. Vajrayana is very special. Using the powers of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas via spiritual union with the cultivator, the cultivator can cure illnesses, achieve brilliance and succor sentient beings.
