頗瓦感應記

黃百肋博士英作
林成穗中譯

友人熙妮﹒琳迭雅歌約於六年前失去了三十歲的女兒莉安。熙妮最初被告知莉安是被她男友謀殺的，而他已潛離關島。熙妮飛往關島參加喪禮，但當局卻不讓她看警察調查報告和驗屍報告。她也未獲許看到她女兒的遺體。此時警方告訴她莉安是自殺死的，警察局長並請熙妮和她兒子不要相信此事另有別情的謠言。他們還告訴她莉安有一個新的身份證。那次悲劇和無法知悉的內情令熙妮受到極大打擊。每年當臨近節日，特別是莉安的生日時，熙妮就會感到極度沮喪和憤怒。最近一次臨近莉安生日時，熙妮從所住的新墨西哥州道思市打電話給我，並告訴我她感到很憤怒。因此我便詢問林博士怎樣可以幫她克服那些情緒。林博士只簡單地說：「明天我會為她女兒修頗瓦，母親的憤怒便會平息。」我即刻告訴了熙妮而未多說，但我知道她會不大相信，我也是，因為我知道她的痛苦有多深。過了幾天，熙妮打電話告訴我：「我當時不相信那會有幫助。因此，當我的憤怒像林博士所說那樣平息了後我感到很驚訝。」她說那是突然發生的……當她在開車時，那些憤怒像一閃般就沒有了。

林博士的說明：

當亡者得不到安息，在生的親友往往會感受到一些無法解釋或解決的徵狀。當我聽到熙妮的問題，我從經驗得知問題的根源是莉安尚未離開痛苦。因此我將她加進頗瓦超渡之列。當那女兒得到幫助，母親即刻便感到了舒泰。除此以外還有其他類似的事例，多數情況當事人都是感受到即刻的加持，而不是逐漸康復。這是因為那種解脫是來自佛陀的強大加持，將障礙一次性地全部清除。

黃百肋告訴我，這件事令他印象十分深刻，因為他聽到我預言頗瓦會幫助亡者的母親，稍後便成了事實。因此，我鼓勵他將這件事寫出來與其他人分享，從而令更多人知道如何得到幫助。我為亡者修頗瓦法純屬自願和免費服務。請求修法者只需提供已故眾生的名字，或當不知名字時就只提供一些亡者的描述即可。

Mrs. Sydney Limtiaco's Experience with Dr. Lin's Powa Service

Written by Dr. Juan Bulnes

My friend Sydney Limtiaco lost her 30-year old daughter Rieann about 6 years ago. Sydney was at first told that Rieann had been murdered by her boyfriend and that he fled the island of Guam. Sydney flew to Guam for the funeral, but she was denied access to the police report and autopsy results. She was not allowed to see the mortal remains of her daughter. At this time she was told by the police that her daughter had committed suicide, yet the Police Chief asked Sydney and her son not to believe rumors and that something was "fishy" about the situation. She was also told that her daughter had a new ID. These tragic events and the lack of closure had a devastating effect on Sydney. Every year when holidays approached, and especially when Rieann's birthday approached, Sydney suffered severe depressions and anger. When Rieann's most recent birthday was approaching, Sydney called me from Taos, NM where she now lives and told me she was feeling a lot of anger, so I asked Dr. Lin how she could be helped to overcome these feelings. Dr. Lin simply said, "I will do Powa for the daughter tomorrow and the mother's anger will go away." I communicated this immediately to my friend without any comments, although I knew that she would be skeptical and so was I, because I knew how deep her pain ran. A few days later, Sydney called and told me, "I did not believe it would help, so I was very surprised that my anger went away as Dr. Lin said." She reported that it happened all of a sudden...the anger dissipated like a flash while she was driving her car.

Dr. Lin's Comment:

When deceased relatives or friends are not in peace the living will often suffer symptoms that have no worldly explanation or solution. When I was told of Sydney's problem, I knew from experiences that the root of the problem was that Rieann had not been relieved from suffering yet. So I included Rieann in my Powa service. As soon as the daughter got helped, the mother felt the relief instantaneously. There are other similar cases, and most of the time the blessing was felt as an instantaneous experience instead of a gradual recovery. This is because the relief was achieved through Buddha's powerful blessing that removed the hindrances all at once.

Juan told me that this event impressed him very much because he heard me foretelling that Powa service would help the deceased's mother, and then it came true. So I urged him to write this report to share with others so that more people would know how to get help. My Powa service is voluntary and free of any charges. People just need to give me the name of a deceased being, or a description in case the name is not known or not given.
