A small hole appeared in my gums in 1991. I did not pay attention to it. In December of that year, I went to the hospital for an examination. The doctor said that it was a malignant tumor in the middle to late stage and that I must undergo surgery and chemotherapy. My family was shocked, frightened, and nervous. My husband, who is my fellow disciple, immediately went to the United States to beseech empowerment from the Buddha Master, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. The Buddha Master was very compassionate. His Holiness immediately empowered me and transmitted a dharma for me to practice that would empower me.
When I moved from my hospital room to the surgery room on the day of my surgery, I was so afraid, tears rolled down my face. As soon as I entered the surgery room, I suddenly became very tranquil. Not only was I not scared, I even carefully observed all of the details of the surgery room.
I remained in the surgery room for a whole day. It was already late at night when I was transferred to a normal hospital room. The doctor came to my room the next day at 7:00 in the morning while making his rounds. To his great surprise, he saw that I was sitting up and said, How can you be sitting up. Since there was still a tube in my mouth, I could not speak. I could only nod my head in response.
The most unbelievable thing during my stay at the hospital was that my wound did not hurt at all. I recovered very quickly and very well. The doctor told me that there was a patient next door who underwent surgery. That patient was in such pain each day that she could not sleep. She recovered very slowly. Even after many days, her stitches could not be removed. The doctor said that my recovery was quite amazing. He had never seen such a recovery! Never!
The weather in Taiwan in November was very cold, and a cold air current arrived. Also, the hospital rooms were air-conditioned. Still, when I did my daily meditation, my entire body emitted heat and perspired. The doctors and nurses all felt that this was unbelievable. They wondered how I could be so hot that I perspired in such cold weather!
I heard that chemotherapy is very painful. However, during my two-month period of chemotherapy, my body did not have any negative reaction. I also did not feel any discomfort. The only negative thing that happened was my skin became a little dark. After less than a half year of rest, I began taking flights to the United States, Thailand, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. I flew all over the world. Furthermore, each year I took many flights.
It has been many years since my surgery. My physical condition has been very good. Without empowerment from the Buddha Master, all of this would have been impossible. The Buddha Master, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III is the supreme, magnificent ancient Buddha. I am very grateful to the Buddha Master for His empowerment.

One night after midnight in early 1990, someone suddenly knocked on my door rapidly and yelled, “Sister Dai, save me!” We opened the door and saw our neighbor Xiao Bai (At that time, Sister Dai was the manager of the Hydroelectric Resource Supply Company of Xindu County.) Xiao Bai told Sister Dai in a very hurried manner, “Sister Dai! Chun-Yang Xia and his wife Ling-Kun Zeng are arguing and fighting. A knife is even being used! Sister Dai, go over there quickly! Go quickly!”
Sister Dai became very anxious upon hearing this, opened the door, and rushed downstairs. While she was running, she prayed for empowerment from H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Wan Ko Yeshe Norbu and kept reciting the Six Syllable Great Brightness Mantra. At this time I (Ying-Fan Wang) also rushed downstairs. While I was running, I prayed for empowerment from H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III together with Sister Dai so that this matter would not turn into something more serious and thereby become fixed karma.
When Sister Dai and I entered the residence of Chun-Yang Xia, we saw that a tragedy had already taken place. Ling-Kun Zeng was lying on the floor in a pool of blood. Her face was pale and she was unconscious. Chun-Yang Xia was holding a weapon a watermelon knife one foot long. The tip of the knife was dripping with blood. Chun-Yang Xia was standing there trembling and in a crazed manner shouted, “Brother Wang! Sister Dai! I am finished! Save Ling-Kun Zeng quickly!”
I saw that Ling-Kun Zeng was about to pass away. The whole room was filled with the stench of blood. We immediately decided to take her to the county hospital. We took the saving of her life as a most urgent matter. During the entire trip to the hospital, we continuously prayed for empowerment from the Buddha Master. We also continuously recited the Six Syllable Great Brightness Mantra and prayed that the Buddha Master would save the life of Ling-Kun Zeng.
As soon as the doctor in the emergency room of the county hospital saw Ling-Kun Zeng, he decided not to accept her for treatment. That doctor said, “The patient won’t pull through. Her life cannot be saved. Her symptoms are those indicating death.” We sincerely begged that doctor to save Ling-Kun Zeng. At the same time, we wholeheartedly intoned the name of H.H. Holiest Tathagata Wan Ko Yeshe Norbu Buddha Master and the name of Guan Shi Yin Bodhisattva, beseeching them to empower Ling-Kun Zen so that her life could be saved.
After our repeated sincere requests in that emergency room of the county hospital, the doctor examined the wounds of Ling-Kun Zeng. After the examination, the doctor said that it is possible she could not be saved. She was stabbed three times in the back. Her liver was stabbed more than an inch deep and as a result was torn apart. She had internal bleeding all over her body. She was in a deep state of unconsciousness and was not breathing. Her pulse occasionally moved ever so faintly. Her condition was extremely critical. The doctor immediately issued a notification that the patient’s situation was critical.
At this time, Sister Dai and I felt extremely bad, but we steadfastly believed in the awesome spiritual powers of our Buddha Master. Sister Dai and I continually prayed to the Buddha Master that His Holiness quickly empower Ling-Kun Zeng. We also immediately telephoned our infinitely compassionate Buddha Master and beseeched him to empower Ling-Kun Zeng. The magnificent Buddha Master very compassionately stated, “Do not worry. I will immediately practice the dharma to empower her.”
With the empowerment from the magnificent Buddha Master, Ling-Kun Zeng miraculously came back to life. She was truly snatched from the jaws of death. The doctors at the scene all said that what occurred was quite miraculous. They wondered how her fate could be so extraordinary. They expressed how surprised they were that she did not die despite suffering what should have been three fatal stabs and despite losing nearly all of her blood. But there is something even more miraculous with respect to the wounded Ling-Kun Zeng, who was on the verge of death. Seven days later, her stitches were removed, she got out of bed, and returned home.
This was an incredible event that Sister Shou-Pin Dai and I personally experienced. Under the compassionate empowerment and protection of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III Buddha Master, the wounded Ling-Kun Zeng was saved at the brink of death. She received a new lease on life. These recollections are true. They are events that we personally went through and handled.
Recollections of Ying-Fan Wang and Shou-Pin Dai
April 21, 2006
(This is a complete translation of the Chinese text that follows originally written
I was very happy about it at the time. After I finished mixing ingredients and seasonings into the dumpling filling, I did what I usually do at home when I cook. I picked up a tiny bit of the filling from the tray and tasted it with my tongue to find out if the amount of salt I put in was right. Then I put it back onto the tray. Such was the usual practice that I followed when cooking at home for my family. After that, I set aside the filling and began to mix the flour with water to make the dumpling wraps.
The Incident: A Severe Glass Wound
Right when I was placing the filling inside the wraps and before any of the dumplings were put in the steamer, I heard a sudden loud crashing sound. I was greatly scared by the sound because I was standing in the kitchen making dumplings and was not moving around at all. As I turned to look, I saw that a bottle of unopened soy sauce had for no reason at all fallen from the condiment table to the ground and was completely shattered. That table was about two to three feet away from me. The fright from that sudden and loud sound made my whole body break into a cold sweat. I then felt a flow of hot energy rising from my body to my head. A thought spontaneously flashed across my mind. I realized that I had committed an offense. I put my palms together and immediately started to repent. I reflected to myself, “Ah, I was wrong! I was stupid and ignorant. I am cooking for my Master (refers to H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III) now. How could I taste the filling first and then wrap it into the dumplings for my Master? Ah, I was wrong!”
Tears flowed down my face without stopping. I didn’t need to analyze it. I kept asking myself how I could have done that. My tears continued to flow. The only thought in my mind was that I was guilty of committing that offense. The more I thought about it, the more contrite I became and the guiltier I felt. Of course, after I repented, I felt a little relieved.
I was about to clean up the broken pieces of the glass bottle and the spilled soy sauce that was all over the floor and then quickly cook and present the meal to my Master. I couldn’t waste any time. However, as soon as I started to move my leg, I found I couldn’t walk. I felt great pain, and my right foot couldn’t touch the ground anymore. Leaning on the wall and moving with the other foot, I made my way to the bathroom. I raised my injured right foot onto the edge of the bathtub and, with great difficulty, took off the leather shoe on my right foot. I discovered that blood was continuously flowing from the arch of my right foot at a place slightly in front of the acupuncture point called yong quan. I realized that something had penetrated my shoe. I touched my foot while washing the blood off and found a sharp piece of glass in my foot arch. I carefully pulled it out. My foot was still bleeding. I did not have the time to treat the injury and simply used a piece of ordinary tissue paper to plug up the wound.
Faith in H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III
It was past 11 o’clock already, and I had to steam and bring the dumplings over to the Master’s house. It would take 25 minutes to get there by riding my bicycle. Any further delay would cause me to miss my Master’s mealtime. I didn’t want to delay even one second. That was the only thought in my mind. I must not delay the Master’s mealtime. I wasn’t concerned about my foot at all. If I missed the Master’s lunchtime, the dumplings would become leftovers for the evening. That would make me very unhappy indeed.
After going to my Master’s house and presenting the lunch, I came back home and sat on a chair. I realized that I had to treat my wound. It was a big cut with a lot of bleeding. I had worked as a medical doctor for three years and knew what needed to be done. I should first disinfect the wound with alcohol or iodine solution using cotton balls at home. Then I would go to the hospital to get a shot to prevent tetanus.
The Miracle Healing Without a Scar
However, after taking off my shoe, I saw that a miracle had happened. The wound on the bottom of my foot was nowhere to be found! Even any trace of the wound was gone! I was extremely surprised. The only thing I saw that was related to the wound was that piece of tissue in my shoe with dried blood on it. The cut by the sharp broken glass was no longer on my foot! This was very surprising to me but was absolutely true. I couldn’t understand this fact before my very eyes even after pondering it over many times. How could this happen?
I told the story to my husband that evening. He is a graduate of Beijing Postal and Telecommunications College and studied radio waves and digital communication. So he emphasizes scientific reasoning. He knew that I was telling the truth. He looked at my foot himself and affirmed that there was no wound. Neither of us could understand this no matter how hard we thought because it was inexplicable. Such a severe injury was gone after at most one hour without receiving any treatment. There was not even any trace of redness or swelling. You all may not know my situation. Normally, if I accidentally poke my finger with a needle while sewing a button, the little bit of bleeding causes the finger to swell for at least three days. That is precisely why what happened to me this time is so extraordinary.
Reflection on the Power of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III
Later, I realized that this was a blessing from the dharma-protecting Bodhisattvas. They saw my stupid act of tasting food that was being prepared for and that was later presented to my Master. They were angry at me and gave me a warning by smashing the bottle of soy sauce. The dharma-protecting Bodhisattvas are also very benevolent to me. When they saw that I was sincerely repenting and correcting my mistake, they fully mended the cut on my foot. I am very grateful to my Master (refers to H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III) and am also very grateful to the dharma-protecting Bodhisattvas for their help.
From this experience, I truly realized that we disciples must be very pious to our Master. Our three karmas must completely correspond with those of our Master. There must not be the slightest deviation in such correspondence, whether intentional or not.
What I described above was a true experience of mine. I did not state anything false in my description of it. I would like to make the following vow. If I made any false statement or said anything that was not true, I am willing to descend to the hell realm immediately. I will end my statement at this point.
