Everyday Life
How do Master and friends view unusual experiences that felt like divine protection?
English translation draft · Based on the Chinese article. This is not a word-for-word translation approved by Master Shengyuan.
Some experiences remain unforgettable and help us understand divine protection through faith. Miao Nian recalled riding a scooter when two scooters collided ahead. After braking sharply, she felt her scooter actually flew over the fallen vehicles. She landed stably at first, falling only later from nervousness. Feeling largely unhurt, she lifted the scooter and continued, surprised and sensing unseen protection. This was her recollection, not a braking technique to imitate in danger.
I also encountered something unusual early on. At a person’s home, I saw several blue centipedes. The person described conflict with a group studying relevant occult techniques. After handling matters, we returned to Sheng Zhen Men and reported to the deities. While discussing it, an identical centipede appeared in the center. I considered whether it had hidden in clothing and traveled back. But I had watched the floor closely at that home and thought it unlikely, so understood the event religiously as something shown to strengthen belief. This was observation and judgment then, not an experiment excluding every natural explanation.
Another practitioner recalled replacing a helmet because its visor had broken. The next day, while tired, the practitioner was hit by a vehicle, struck their head on the ground, felt briefly dizzy, and scraped a leg. They were relieved to have replaced the helmet and thanked the deities through the connected sequence. The helmet had not inexplicably broken twice, nor were they completely uninjured. Retaining actual protection, the accident, and personal faith understanding prevents turning it into a different story.
