I would like to thank the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Venerable Master, Dharma masters, and all my Dharma friends who helped recite the Buddha’s name for helping my mother attain rebirth in the western land of Ultimate Bliss without obstacles. My husband has already described the events that took place when my mother was reborn in the Pure Land. Now, I want to talk about some of my experiences and what we, as children, can do.

June of this year, my father experienced sudden pain around his waist, and he couldn’t eat. Within one month, he lost around ten kilograms. He was admitted to Taipei’s General Veteran’s Hospital many times. Finally, in September, he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. According to his doctor, this type of cancer worsens very quickly. Usually, a patient with this illness only lives for another six months. Although my entire family didn’t lose hope, we were finally defeated by the disease. My father peacefully passed away at the end of October. From when he first got ill to when he passed away, many inconceivable events as described in the Sutras occurred. Therefore, I put these events together to share with everyone.
