Let's take a look at these colorful and incomparably solemn things. When I first took this film to print in the shop. The boss asked which gem shop this photo was taken. I told him this is the certificate of an elderly woman who was mindful of the Buddha.
Then I put a title on it: Laywoman Xiemiao Lai was reborn in the Pure Land and manifest auspicious phenomenon in her 80 in Oct, 1985. Laywoman Xiemiao Lai is a lotus elder in her 80 from our church in Yuanlin.
Many people have heard of relic but never see it. I will fill you with dharma joy today. Laywoman Xiemiao Lai is an elderly lady, who abides by the law, behaves herself, chants the Buddha, and does not know profound theory. Only knows she can practice the Buddha chanting, so she practiced devoutly.
It's said that she wakes up every morning, she is eager to do the course, and she opens the gate of her house. After wearing the clothes with wide sleeve, she welcomes the Buddha to the buddha hall in her house. Thus, she is so devoted to chanting the Buddha.
Due to her old age, her children welcome her to live together with them. However, she preferred to be alone and chant the Buddha quietly without disturbance. Her children are worried and said: Mom, you chant Buddha and still got car accident

It's said she has two car accidents. This caused a minor inconvenience to her mobility. Her children are worried and said: Mom, you chant Buddha and still got car accident. Your legs are uncomfortable, then worship the Buddha less. What did the wise lady say? Excellent, I've paid off another debt. I can keep on worshiping. After the accident, it was just a little harder for me to worship. I still want to worship.
Thus, she achieved success. One month before she was reborn, she told her friend who chanted Buddha with her: I'm 80, I'm gonna be reborn. Get ready to help chanting for me. She is very close to her lotus fellow. Back then, it was the 7th month of the lunar calendar. The weather was very hot. She said: It's so hot now, it's also hot for your rebirth. We feel hot to help chanting for you too. The elderly laywoman said: then I will go later when it's cooler. How comfortable it is to be able to choose her day? And the fellow said: You want us to help chanting for you. It's better we are available. Otherwise, we need to go to work and take care of family. The laywoman said: Sure, you will be available. This elder who truthfully chant the Buddha got the benefit. Thus, she is peaceful and not distracted at all, striving to chant the Buddha. She understood the wisdom of the Buddha potentially and achieved the priceless succeed.

She mentioned this in July. Then she chose the Mid-Autumn Festival. Is it cool enough? A bright moon hangs in the sky. It's cool and nice weather, not too hot for rebirth or for chanting, and it's a national holiday that you should be free. The elder happily chanted Amitabha with the group, beating her hands in rhythm. Thus, she was reborn in peace. After being reborn, she was sent to be cremated. Every place she lay on the ground was cremated into relics. There are a lot, flashing blue, white, and red light. Hundreds, too many to fit in an urn, and they have to put it in a jewelry box.
The Buddha never let us down. Her descendants are so touched and say: Grandma looks ordinary, who is holding a rosary and chanting Amitabha, and nothing special. Surprisingly, she is so blessed that she is born at ease. They also bring forth the resolve to take refuge and chant the Buddha.
Therefore, Buddhists who chant the Buddha must realize that only by being able to be reborn in the Land of Bliss can sentient beings be ferried. Because your classic example can be passed down.
We respectfully invited the elders relics and gave to several countries. When we invited it, her son said, "Take a look and choose what you like. I see that so many people come for my mother's relics, but there are still so many here, they are not reduced.

That's inconceivable. Though she is an elderly lady who abides by the laws and behaves well, and didn't go out to do anything. But she can ferry sentient beings. It's said that this elderly lady has fulfilled her wish. She said: I am just an old woman chanting the Buddha and don't know how to preach. Besides, I've been in a car accident. I can't move very well or run errands for Buddhist temples. But I know I have to ferry sentient beings, and I will.
The best way to ferry being is an example of rebirth at ease like this, leaving shining and colorful relics of evidence, which give us a great faith. This is laywoman Xiemiao Lai.
I always feel that there is a force of stability in Taiwan recently, we need to pay attention. We must thank many elders who behave quietly. Look at their peaceful manners when they are reborn at ease. We can feel an invisible force of stability.
