(English subtitles) This is a rebirth example into the Land of Bliss (Sukhavati) in Taiwan. Lectured by Thinker of Return 思歸子
subtitles:
Then let's see the following Laywoman Liju Liu. She has given birth to a dozen children. Including her grandson, there are nearly 50 people. But only one granddaughter and one grandson-in-law are Buddhists. After the husband of the elderly Ms. Liu died, her granddaughter and grandson-in-law advised her to learn Buddhism and chant the Buddha.
After chanting the Buddha, her wisdom was unfolded. She was thinking: I am over 80 years old and I don’t know when I will leave this world. Among my large group of children and grandchildren, only my granddaughter and grandson-in-law are Buddhists. Others are not Buddhists.
When I'm gonna reborn, these people will be an obstacle. She was smart enough to find a chance for a family meeting. She summoned all her descendants and entrusted them to recite the Buddha's name to help with her rebirth when she was dying.
I don't care if you are Buddhists or not, she said, I want you children to fulfill your filial piety and chant Buddha for me according to Buddhism. Come and see me off, no cry, no touch my body, and don't give me unnecessary first aid. You should not feel free to change my clothes when you chant for me.
Each descendant must sign a deathbed paper. In addition, there are audio recording as a proof. I really feel that she has wisdom. So, we, chanting the Buddha, must practice both blessing and wisdom.

You'd better usually has this critical rebirth program in place. In central Taiwan, a Lotus friend who had seen many cases trained her children who were in middle school. She said, I've taught you the procedure.
Let's do a test. Now I am gonna be reborn. What will you do?
Mom, as you have taught me. First, I will press the chanting machine as soon as possible. Amitabha...2nd, beside the phone, there is an emergent phone list, I will call them and say, My mother is gonna be reborn, please come and help chanting for her. After contacting, I will sit beside you and say: Mom, Please feel free to chant the Buddha and get reborn. I will take care of myself and see you in the Bliss World in the future.
His mother said: Excellent. They usually practice like that. So, the elder lady let everyone be aware of it, sign, and archive the audio record. Everyone knows it. Therefore, you shouldn't instruct this thing privately. Otherwise, when it happens, he may not handle it for you beside you, and not everyone heard this instruction. People can ruin relationships by dealing with your affairs. This is very important. After instruction, the Elder felt free and chanted the Buddha, until the day of the winter solstice, and that was close to the New Year.
She bathed, changed clothes, and chanted Buddha. Many family came and talked to her, she didn't talk with them. The family members all felt that the elder is different from usual.

She had given instructions not to take her to the hospital. So they contacted her lotus friends to help with chanting. Because there are many people, including family members, so they scheduled shifts. One to two hours for one shift. Better not to over 2 hours. Because reciting the Buddha's name requires speaking out and exerting force.
They started chanting the Buddha at 8 pm and continued until 4 am the next day. Since people were coming in and out of the house in groups, they left the doors unlocked. At 4 am, 3 burglars broke into the house at gunpoint, holding a gun and waggling it.
They are chanting Buddha and had no reaction. These burglars felt weird. Should people fear and scream when seeing guns was shown? Why didn't anyone react? Then they waved and called the elder's daughter to the living room, and said: This is a real gun, not a toy gun or a prop gun. They even took out bullets for display. This is a real gun, real bullets, I want to rob. Then her daughter said, Amitabha, my mother is going to be reborn. What are you 3 young men doing?
How did the 3 young burglars know what rebirth was? Her daughter showed the 3 burglars to the bedroom. On the wall hung a picture of majestic Amitabha receiving beings.

On the bed lay an elder lady holding a rosary and praying to Buddha. On the side sat a group of people chanting Buddha. When these burglars with evil ideas saw the scene, saw the pure image of Amitabha, and heard the majestic Buddha's name, their Buddha nature, that everyone innately possesses, was induced. At that moment, they were ashamed, lowered their heads and put away the guns, saluted and said sorry 5 times in a row Thus, they turned around and left immediately. A storm of a robbery was resolved like that.
It's said in the sutra: If you recite the name of Amitabha sincerely, it can eliminate your heavy sins in the past lives. Furthermore, in the Universal Door Chapter. Due to chanting Avalokitesvara (Guanshiyin), a lot of grudge will retreat.
