In 2010, I made a trip to Japan. Ito Lichan of the Kobe local chapter of True Buddha School came to see me at the Hyatt Hotel in Osaka. When I laid eyes upon her, I was greatly shocked. Dharma Instructor Ito Lichan of the Kobe local chapter had been a Japanese beauty.
This Song poem describes her looks:
Spring is glimpsed from the emerald hair worn in a bun,
Delicate loveliness revealed through the shedding of red raw silk.
Like standing in the eastern breeze,
One can still hear the sounds of rainbow skirts and Jie drums.
Or:
A slender body,
A face like hibiscus,
Ethereal as the clouds,
Delicate as silk garment and sleeves.
Yet, this time she looked wan and sallow. Her face was a darkish pallor. Her former graceful bearing was nowhere to be seen.
I questioned her, “What has happened?”
Ito Lichan replied, “I became really sick and was unable to get out of bed. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctors discovered cancer cells in my intestines, lungs, brain, and lymph nodes. The diagnosis was quite startling. I do not know how much longer I have to live.”
Ito Lichan asked for my blessing.
With my transcendental power, I tapped into the “supreme great dharma power” and completely focused for it to enter and circulate throughout her body. When a picture was taken of both of us, a large red light of blessing appeared in the empty space above her.
At her departure, I transmitted a special mantra and supplication allowing her to summon me when needed.
***
She underwent daily radiation therapy for twenty days. An incredible phenomenon took place during the radiation treatments. An image of Grand Master Lu appeared to her alongside images of the laser beams. She could simultaneously hear Sanskrit mantras.
