‧Sheng-yen Lu‧
A couple brought a little boy to see me. More than half of this little boy’s face was black in color. The right corner of his mouth, to the right brow, all the way to his ear, was completely black.
It was a shocking sight. He looked a little like the Black and White Judges of City God Temples.
This couple said, “When he was born, half his face was black. Some people say it was a mark made by the Bed Mother (a Taiwanese folk goddess), a birthmark. When birthmarks are located on other parts of the body, like on the buttock, they don’t have any visual impact. But, with such a mark on his face, everyone who sees him will find him strange.”
They said, “We have heard that Grand Master Lu’s hands have dharma power. We hope you can cure him!”
I said, “Why don’t you take him to see a doctor?”
They replied, “The dermatologists said there was nothing they could do about it.”
I visualized my Yidam (Personal Deity) residing on my head and the cosmic energy from the deity flowed into my body. I touched my hand upon the little boy’s face. I said, “He will be well!”
The couple left with their son. After a while, the three of them returned to see me. The parents said, “The black on his face has not faded at all. Grand Master’s hand did not seem to do him any good.”
I was quite embarrassed.
I touched his face again. This time a swirl of light appeared on my palm. Inside the light was a woman lying in a coffin. Her right cheek was immersed in water, and I finally understood.
I explained to them, “There is a problem with the Feng Shui of your ancestor’s burial site. It has to do with a female ancestor. Her right cheek is immersed in water, and that is the cause of the little boy’s face turning black.”
The couple said, “That must be his grandmother’s grave site.”
They followed my instructions and had the grandmother’s body exhumed.
