Sui·Master Zhizhe
Master Zhizhe knew that the cause and condition of teaching sentient beings was about to end, so he went to Shicheng Temple in Shandong to live and told his disciples, "I will finally be here." Then he ordered the disciple to lay the bed next to the wall in the east, and faced the west, and devoted himself to chanting the name of Amitabha Buddha, Mahaprajna Paramita and the holy name of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva. We also encourage everyone to have faith and follow the Buddha's teachings and teachings, and use the power of remembering the Buddha's path and chanting the Buddha's original vow to bless Amitabha's compassionate vows to be reborn in the Pure Land.
A disciple at this time asked for instructions and said, "I don't know what position the master has attained, and where will he be reborn after his death?" Master Zhizhe said, "If I do not lead all my disciples to teach them, I will definitely be able to obtain the six senses of purity (similar to the Buddha's position in the perfect teaching). But I harm myself and others, and I have only obtained the five levels (the practice of the perfect teaching is the Buddha's position). My master and fellow Taoists have now come to welcome me to rebirth in the Western Paradise with Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva and Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva ." After that, he sat upright and passed away, as if he had entered a deep meditation, at the age of 67. At that time, he was . . 11th day of the 17th year of Kaihuang in the Sui Dynasty (597).
Shi Huiyan from Tianxiang Temple heard the news of Master Zhizhe's transformation and rebirth, and she cried endlessly. She wanted to know where Master Zhizhe was reborn, so she wrote the Lotus Sutra to seek the Master's secret instructions. As a result, at night I dreamed that Master Zhizhe and Guanyin Bodhisattva came from the Western Pure Land, and said compassionately and kindly: "Your suspicion should be removed in this way!"

Tang Dynasty Master Xuanzang
Master Xuanzang was walking in more than 800 miles of quicksand. There were no birds above and no beasts below. The monster raised the fire, and it was as bright as a star, and there was nothing to fear. But the water was cut off for five days and was on the verge of death and could not walk. He lay in the sand, silently chanting Guanyin, wishing and praying: "Xuanzang's journey is dedicated to the supreme path and the Dharma. The Bodhisattva is kind to all living beings and is committed to saving suffering. How can he not know that I am distressed?" In the middle of the night, a cool breeze suddenly blew on his body, and the cold and fast water made Xuanzang open his eyes and his horse could get up and walk.After heading forward, the horse suddenly ran on the fork in the road, which was difficult for people to control. Soon, several acres of green grass were seen, and a pool of water was sweet and clear. The mage dismounted and drank water, and his life was saved.
Master Yunqi of Song Dynasty
Master Yunqi, whose courtesy name is Qingbian, was born in Qiantang, Zhejiang Province. He took the classics and became a monk when he was young. He taught the Tiantai teachings from Master Faming Huixian. I once had an infectious disease and had no cure for all medicines, so I focused on reciting the holy name of Guanyin Bodhisattva. I dreamed of a woman who cut open his chest with a chisel, replaced his heart, and massaged it with her hands, and the disease she suffered was cured immediately. Since then, all the classics I have read before have been clear and clear. They can write them at will, and their words and sentences are very classical and elegant. Yunqi served as the abbot of Suzhou and Hangzhou temples many times, and retired to Shangfang Temple in Changshu, Jiangsu in his later years.

Contemporary Master Shengyan
Introduces you to the great Guanyin Bodhisattva. For Shengyan himself, he feels infinite affection and infinite praise. Because I have been bathed in the grace of this great bodhisattva since I was young.
I was born sick and weak, and my mother believed in Guanyin and survived. My brothers and sisters converted to the teachings of the teachings of the teachings of the teachings of the teachings of the teachings of the teachings of the teachings. Although Principle Buddhism is not an authentic Buddhism, the "Ancient Buddha of the Holy Sect" in Principle Buddhism is actually Guanyin Bodhisattva. When I became a monk in my childhood, I worshipped the Great Sage Bodhisattva, which was originally a monk from the Western Regions who came to China from the Western Regions during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty. According to the "Biography of the Great Monk of Song", he once appeared on the eleven-sided statue of Guanyin, so he was the incarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva.
I was very stupid when I was a teenager. According to my mother, I didn’t speak until I was 6 years old and started studying until I was 9 years old. When I became a monk at the age of 13, I was just a primary school student in the fourth grade of junior high school. But after becoming a monk, the first story my master told me was an example of seeking wisdom from Guanyin Bodhisattva: Zen Master Yongming Yanshou of the Song Dynasty, who practiced the "Lotus Sutra Repentance Method" for 21 days, dreamed that Guanyin Bodhisattva poured his mouth with nectar, and he gained his eloquence without hindrance. He has written 100 volumes of "H Sect Mirror " and "The Collection of All Goods", which is an immortal masterpiece in the history of Buddhism. His high status can be seen.
So my master taught me to worship Guanyin Bodhisattva at least 200 times every morning and evening. I have been worshiping for more than half a year, and I have visualized it while worshiping: Guanyin Master Holding the willow branches in my hand, and sprinkling the water on my head with nectar. Therefore, I memorized the thick book " Zen Day Recitation " within a few months, and even I was a little surprised at that time.
html In the spring of 149, I arrived in Taiwan. Due to my physical condition at that time, some students thought that it would be delayed to death within 3 months. But in my heart, I have never left Guanyin Bodhisattva. I often use my time to silently recite Guanyin Bodhisattva during walking and morning exercises, so I often take care of Guanyin Bodhisattva’s compassionate light. After living there for 10 years, he finally resigned.
Due to my own experience as mentioned above, I will always respond to the requests of Guanyin Bodhisattva. I believe in it and am grateful. (February 19, 1968)
"Universal Door Chapter" says: "The Buddha told the Bodhisattva of Endless Minds: Good man, if there are countless hundreds of thousands of sentient beings who suffer all sufferings, and hear that this Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva is named with one mind. Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, and immediately observes his voice and will all be liberated."
As the sutra says, if you recite the name of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, you will be able to enter the fire without burning, enter the water without flooding, stay away from evil ghosts, destroy the punishment instruments, eliminate all obstacles, eliminate all obstacles, fulfill all difficulties, fulfill all wishes, and achieve all blessings. It also appears according to the kind, incarnates everywhere, saves suffering and suffers without any request. The methods of Guanyin Bodhisattva are approachable and can be practiced by everyone, at any time and everywhere. As long as you persevere and believe in earnest, you will eventually gain ultimate benefits.
