Bringing Grandma Home

I had been introduced to Dorje Shugden for quite some time already but all this while, I had never believed in Buddhism so even though I was given the Protector’s mantra I did not do my practice seriously. I only chanted the mantra when I remembered or when I needed help.

That is, until one incident totally changed my mind about Buddhism and the Dharma protector.

My grandmother is an 82-year-old lady. Generally, she is very healthy, can walk and run, and doesn’t suffer any illnesses. The only problem is that she has Alzheimers and keeps forgetting things. Most of the time, she doesn’t know what she’s doing, she eats raw food from the fridge, she almost started a fire once while trying to light incense; she has even fallen a few times while trying to climb up somewhere to hide things. Yes, she has a habit of hiding things and then accusing others of stealing her things later when she can’t find them.

As each person in the family had their own busy working schedules, my grandmother was often alone at home. Eventually, after much consideration, we decided to admit her into a nursing home where there would be professionals to take care of her all the time.

After she moved into the nursing home, my mum continued to send her breakfast every morning before going to work. On the fifth day after checking her into the home, my mum went as usual to deliver breakfast. When she arrived, she saw the nurses looking very worried and talking among themselves. They told her that my grandmother had run away! Her roommate said she had packed her bags early in the morning. As the nurse was busy preparing breakfast and washing the other patients, she threw her bag across the gate, climbed over the gate and ran off, gosh… it was like something from a movie!

I really didn’t know what to do, so I prayed very sincerely to Dorje Shugden, wishing that grandma would come home safely.

My mother panicked and started calling all her brothers and sisters to start searching for grandma. We drove around the streets for almost three hours looking for her but couldn’t find her anywhere. I really didn’t know what to do, so I prayed very sincerely to Dorje Shugden, wishing that grandma would come home safely.

Not long after I did the prayers, surprisingly, a taxi driver sent my grandma home. After a brief conversation, we heard from him that there was a lady who stopped the taxi driver and asked him to send my grandma home. Who was this lady and how did she know our house address? Until today, this is still a mystery to me. But, after all this, my grandma came home! She lost some money but more importantly, she came home safe and unharmed.

  1. Most times, there are defining moments in our lives that changes our perspective and convictions. In your case, the very clear sign the Dorje Shugden has come to your aid was the impetus for your change.

    Your sincere motivation for the return of your grandma seemed enough for Dorje Shugden to come to your aid swiftly. You may have seem to have done little before but your sincerity came through for you and your connection with Dorje Shugden. We also never know what we have done in our past lives that may create enough merits for Dorje Shugden to be able to help us or otherwise.

    May your grandma always be blessed by the Three Jewels.

Contemplate This

.…Instead of turning away people who practise Dorje Shugden, we should be kind to them. Give them logic and wisdom without fear, then in time they give up the ‘wrong’ practice. Actually Shugden practitioners are not doing anything wrong. But hypothetically, if they are, wouldn’t it be more Buddhistic to be accepting? So those who have views against Dorje Shugden should contemplate this. Those practicing Dorje Shugden should forbear with extreme patience, fortitude and keep your commitments. The time will come as predicted that Dorje Shugden’s practice and it’s terrific quick benefits will be embraced by the world and it will be a practice of many beings.
