In the thirty-first year of Guangxu (1905), the old monk of Qianyun was sixty-six years old, went to Nanyang Honghua, contracted miasma when he crossed the Savage Mountain, became feverish, and had a high fever day and night, and barely helped him to Liudong Guanyin Temple. There was a Chinese monk named Dingru in the monastery who saluted him, but he ignored it and found a stone floor next to the main hall to meditate. After this monk's morning and evening lessons, they all sang "kill, kill, kill" three times, I don't know what it means? And the diet is mixed with green onions and garlic milk, Yungong does not say much, only drinking water every day. The monk knew the reason, that is, he no longer mixed green onions and garlic meat into the fast, and the public was able to eat. To the 7th Later, he recounted that ten years ago, he was abused by foreign devils on the ship from Hong Kong to Singapore, and drank hatred for life, so he sang and killed every day to never forget. How can the people of a weak country have dignity?
From Yangon, Myanmar to Penang (Penang) Kek Lok Lok Temple, Malaysia, the boat to Penang anchored the boat, because there were epidemic deaths on board, as soon as the ship anchored, more than 1,000 people on board were driven up a mountain for testing. The foreigner doctor checked twice a day, and about half of the people left for seven days, and after ten days, Yungong was left alone, anxious, and the disease he had contracted in Savage Mountain had worsened, and he gradually could not eat. On the eighteenth day, a foreign doctor came to make people move to the public residence, and an old man from Quanzhou came to inspect and sighed: "This room is specially used for the dissection of dying patients alive"! Yun Gong immediately told the old man that it was a monk who went to the Jile Temple, and the old man couldn't help but pity: "I'll take some medicine for you to eat and see, whether the disease can get better is unknown, let everything be left to fate." That is, boiled a bowl of Divine Comedy tea and drank, ate for two days, the condition was slightly relieved, the old man repeatedly warned Yungong: "In a while, the foreign doctor comes, listen to my coughing outside, you have to cheer up, sit up and pretend to be sick, resolutely do not take the medicine of the foreign doctor, remember, maybe there is also the art of returning to heaven"! After a while, sure enough, the foreign doctor came to check and forced to take the medicine, and the old man learned that he had been forcibly fed the medicine, and was shocked: "It's hard to survive, tomorrow I will come and dissect it alive, I'll give you some antidote to eat, whether there is any effect is not guaranteed, just pray for Buddha to bless you"! The next morning, the old man came to visit early, and saw that the ground was full of blood, and the Yungong servant was lying in a pool of blood, unable to see, the old man quickly picked the person up, changed into clean clothes, cleaned the blood stains, and whispered to the father's ear: "You don't deserve to die, the Buddha has a spiritual effect, if it is changed to someone else who took medicine yesterday, he will be dissected alive without waiting for the breath." When the foreign doctor came around nine o'clock, you heard my coughing outside, pretending to be more energetic, or there was still a glimmer of change." After a while, the foreign doctor really brought the surgical instrument box over, and saw that Yungong was full of energy and had no sick appearance, so he pointed with his finger unconsciously, and left with a smile. When the old man saw that the foreign doctor was far away, he came over to comfort: "You don't deserve to die, he laughed that you don't deserve to die, and you won't perform an autopsy immediately." Duke Yun asked him to help send the foreign doctor 24 yuan, and he was allowed to let him go. The next morning, the doctor came to check on it, allowed him to go, and the old man helped the father to board the boat and cross the sea, and finally left the disaster.
Forced to Guangfu Palace with illness, hanging orders in the guest hall of the monastery, the deacon of the guest hall saw that Yun Gong described himself as haggard and dying, sitting for more than two hours, but no one bothered to receive him, did not feel the mixed feelings of sorrow, fortunately did not die at the hands of foreigners, but sadly knew that the guest monks did not know the duty of receiving the wandering monks from ten directions. When it was evening, the first monk of Juekong passed by by chance, and Yungong could not get up at that time, and the old monk held him up with his hand: "The Gao Wanbang resident of Yangon, Myanmar has been calling for more than 20 days, I don't know your news, the old monk Miaolian and the public master are very anxious, how did you make it like this"? A few moments later, the old monk Miaolian arrived: "I look at you every day, I am afraid that you will be in danger, I want to return to Fujian to build the Turtle Mountain Monastery, I heard that you are coming, so I specially waited here, I never thought that you would suffer this disaster, it was really dangerous"! Returning to the Jile Temple with the old monk, the old monk ordered him to take medicine, saying: "Once you have arrived home, you will rest for a few days." In the future, at the Kek Lok Si for a certain number of days, the old monk warned: "The weather in Nanyang is hot, and meditating here is different from the mainland, and if you sit for a few days like this, I am afraid that it will cause great harm to the color body over time"! Yun Gong did not care at that time, resulting in a serious illness in Thailand's Longquan Temple two years later, almost dying, this is a later story. The old monk Miaolian went on the boat to return to Fujian in a few days, and instructed Yungong to go to Gushan first after preaching the Lotus Sutra, and there are important matters that you need to handle. Yungong gave sermons at Kek Lok Hok Temple in Penang, Cheng Wan Ting in Malacca, and Ling Shan Temple in Kuala Lumpur, with more than 10,000 converts before and after.
In March of the 32nd year of Guangxu (1906), he returned to China and sent Zen monks to Beijing in Shanghai to petition for the protection of Buddhism, and the Guangxu Emperor issued an edict to all provinces strictly forbidding the donation of monastic property, and forbidding local gentry officials to intrude with servitude. In July of that year, he also gave the Yingxiang Temple of Jizu Mountain in Yunnan Province the "Sacred Zen Temple for Protecting the Country", and gave Longzang and Luan all the equipment. He ordered the abbot to give purple clothes and bowls, jade seals, tin staffs, and ruyi, and gave the abbot the title of "Master of Buddha Cihong Fa". He was ordered to return to the mountains to preach the ordination and protect the country and the people.
In the thirty-third year of Guangxu (1907), the whole set of dragons was transported out of Beijing in the first month, and Fang arrived in Xiamen, and the call from Gushan Yongquan Temple said that the old monk Miaolian had died in Guishan, and went to Gushan in the starry night to prepare for the aftermath. On the 10th day of the first month of April, the heavy rain poured incessantly, and the people were very worried, the first 8 days were sunny, and on the 10th day of the first 10th, a hundred tables were fasted in Tianping, and everyone chanted the sutra and made offerings, and when they recited the mantra of changing food, a whirlwind suddenly appeared, spinning the sacrifices and flying in the air, and a light radiated from the top of the shrine, straight through the tower. Another branch of the spirit bones was transported to the Guanyin Pavilion in Penang, Malaysia, and when thousands of people chanted the mantra until they changed their food, a whirlwind blew away thousands of flowers, and white light gushed from the top of the shrine, which shot straight into the top of the old monk Ling Pagoda of Miaolian at Kek Lok Temple, two miles away. Commenting on these two strange things, the old monk of Qianyun said: These two things were done with his own hands, and those who heard and saw with his eyes were also difficult to think. As for the old man's life practice, he did not know what he did, nor did he practice meditation and purity, but built a monastery and connected with the people. The last cause, there is strangeness. Since his shave, Yu has wandered all over the world, has not served for a long time, and has not been heard from for decades, and has failed to be favored by the teacher. However, in the end, the cause and condition, for which he cooks the shrine, divides the relics, remembers his repeated instructions, and seems to have a foreknowledge, which is difficult to fool. Briefly describe the facts and prove the future.
After handling the matter of the old monk Bi Miaolian Lingta, he took a ship from Tanah, Malaysia to Siam (Thailand), and during the transfer, he met a British consul, who had been a consular officer in Tengchong and Kunming, and saw that the old monk of Qianyun did not casually eat the pastries and food containing milk on the ship, and specially invited the old monk to eat vegan meals, and inquired and learned that it was for the construction of Yingxiang Temple on Chickenfoot Mountain, and specially donated 3,000 yuan on the edge book as a special fund for the construction of the temple. The ship arrived in Siam, went ashore and parted, and a few days later the old monk lectured on the Jizo Sutra at Longquan Monastery, and the British consul visited the temple and paid 3,000 yuan in cash. This is a miracle, and there are people with good roots in Buddha among the British.
He gave a sermon at the Longquan Temple in Siam, sat quietly for a day, and suddenly settled, and on nine days, he coaxed Thailand, and since the king's ministers and the common people came to worship, the king invited him into the royal palace to provide for conversion, and the officials and gentlemen converted about thousands of people. From this time to settle, the words of the old monk Miaolian were fulfilled, at the beginning it was only paralyzed, hindered in movement, then numb all over, food and living need help, Chinese and Western medicine were ineffective, until finally the mouth could not speak, the eyes could not see, the group doctor tied his hands, only to die. Although his body is paralyzed and unable to move, his heart is full of thoughts, thinking about the construction of the Chickenfoot Mountain Temple and the transfer of Tibetan scriptures, in case he dies and is burned, no one knows about such things, how can the cause and effect be responsible? Without crying, silently praying for the protection of His Holiness Kaye, who was able to successfully build the Chickenfoot Mountain Monastery to receive the monks, Master Miaoyuan hurriedly stepped forward to get water and feed, and immediately fell asleep. In my dream, I saw an old monk like His Holiness Kaye, sitting next to Yungong with his right hand: "Bhikkhu and bhikkhus, do not leave your body with your mantle, do not worry, use the mantle as a pillow, and your illness will be cured"! When he heard the words, he took the mantle as a pillow, looked back at the place where his Venerable had been lost, and sweated all over, and his heart was happy and unable to speak. The mouth can speak, that is, instruct Miaoyuan Shi to ask for a prescription before Hua Tuo, but the two flavors of Chinese medicine of wood and night bright sand, after frying, the mouth can speak, see things, and then ask for Hua Tuo, only one taste of red adzuki beans. Since then, boiled red adzuki beans for porridge, eaten for two days, the head can move slightly, and then ask, is still red adzuki beans a medicine, so that every day to take red adzuki beans as the main food, do not eat others, soon the urine and urine are full of black liquid, the body gradually knows the pain and itching, lying down without hindrance, more than 20 days before and after, paralysis is removed, paralysis is gone. He thanked Master Miaoyuan and the public for their hard work, and gave Hua Tuo a prescription to eliminate illness, and made a vow to build a temple in the future to build a temple and build a garan hall for worship, so as to relieve the suffering of the world. After recovering from his illness, he continued to preach, and the king of Siam donated 300 hectares of land in the cave as an offering, and Yungong immediately sent it to Penang Kek Lok Wat to set up a rubber factory.
