And now we have a heartline in Mandarin Chinese, with multiple-language subtitles, from Zi-Yang in China:
Respected and Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai and the Supreme Master TV team, I’d like to share how Beloved Master helped my father in his passing. My 94-year-old father had been paralyzed for more than half a year. Later, he ate and drank less and less, became extremely weak, and developed bedsores. He even began to talk deliriously. In the morning, I’d go home to help my mother look after my father, and I still attended Quan Yin group meditation in the afternoon. I prayed to Master to pick a time and take my suffering father away so that he could pass away peacefully.
Not long after, one night, I heard a voice in an inner vision saying, “Change to another room,” and I also stepped on a string of white firecracker-like things at the same time. Soon, my father was hospitalized again. A feeding tube was inserted through his nasal cavity. That day, he said to me in pain, “What sins have I committed for this to be my punishment?” I said to my father, “Eating (animal-people) meat also brings suffering. Look at how when you were young, you had the body of an airman, but when you grew old, it still came to this. Worldly things are unreliable. Don’t think about the ailment. Think of the Buddha. Only the Buddha can be relied on. Recite the Buddha’s Name with me, and you will feel much better.” But my father could only remember Amitābha Buddha, so I taught him word by word to recite Amitābha Buddha’s Name. On the day he passed away, the caregiver later said that he was still reciting the Buddha’s Name that morning.
On December 19, 2024, a little after 3 pm, my father’s heart suddenly stopped, and he passed away while his bedsore dressings were getting changed. I rushed to the hospital and saw his body already lying flat on the bed, yet he looked as if he were peacefully asleep. His face even looked several years younger and didn’t look like someone who was dead at all. I immediately recited the Buddha’s Name and prayed to Master to deliver his soul, and I played Master’s Buddha’s Chanting and Supreme Master TV Max for three days until the morning my father was cremated.
A few nights later, I had an auspicious inner vision. I saw an open color photo album. The picture on the left was a back view of Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva with the Buddha Crown on His head and a pewter staff in His right hand, gracefully robed in a monk’s attire. On the right was a picture of my mother. When I woke up, I knew it was Beloved Master Who had come to take my father on his passing. I’m grateful for the Grace of Respected and Beloved Master and for Your Compassionate Care and Blessing for me and my family. Zi-Yang from China
