Holy Venerable Yin Hai Again Manifests a Holy State Unfounded in the World, Leaving Illusorily Manifested Miraculous Sharira at the Holy Miracles Temple
Holy Venerable Yin Hai
After Holy Venerable Yin Hai entered nirvana on January 15, 2017, His revered body was moved to the Guan Yin Hall in the Holy Miracles Temple of World Buddhism Association Headquarters for worshipping. During the period of one month, a series of miraculous transformations took place. The miraculous transformations started more than 20 days after the Holy Venerable entered nirvana. Not only the wrinkles on His face disappeared through the days, His bone frame and muscles became fully filled and His complexion turned red and lustrous like a living person. Even His beard grew denser and His finger nails grew longer, accomplishing a perfect sacred appearance and an incorruptible Vajra body. After the 100 holy assemblies were held perfectly, the revered body of Holy Venerable Yin Hai was transported to the holy site at the Rose Hills Memorial Park for worshipping. While the dharma assembly was in session, more than 100 eagles flew from far away to hover in the low sky above the holy site. As soon as the dharma assembly was concluded, they immediately flew into the tiding clouds and vanished. The staff members of the Rose Hills Memorial Park were full of praises in astonishment, saying that they had never seen such a special holy scene. A testimony was written by the Universal Chung Wah Funeral Directors to describe the manifestations by the Holy Venerable.
After the revered body of Holy Venerable Yin Hai was moved to the Rose Hills Memorial Park, at the location before the statue of Guan Yin Bodhisattva in the Guan Yin Hall of the Holy Miracles Temple where the revered body of Holy Venerable Yin Hai was originally worshipped, a visage of Holy Venerable Yin Hai was installed for worshipping. Moreover, on the wall at the side facing the statue of Guan Yin Bodhisattva, another identical visage of Holy Venerable Yin Hai is also worshipped. This visage was moved from the original Hall of the Five Buddhas to the Guan Yin Hall of the Holy Miracles Temple. The two visages have the same size, were printed from the same edition, and were installed into two picture frames of the same dimensions at the same time.
What happened after almost two years is truly beyond imagination. On the fifteenth day of the eleventh lunar month of 2018 (December 21, 2018), someone suddenly shouted in the Guan Yin Hall, “Mystery! Mystery! The visage of Holy Venerable Yin Hai had a miraculous transformation!” At this time, everyone discovered that the visage of Holy Venerable Yin Hai worshipped before the statue of Guan Yin Bodhisattva even appeared larger than the other visage worshipped on the wall by at least one-third. Anyone who stood at a spot which is away from the two visages by a same distance could clearly see the obvious difference between the sizes of the two visages. The difference could be seen very obviously. Everyone said that the visage before the statue of Guan Yin Bodhisattva was much bigger than the other. Then, people brought rulers to measure. The lengths and widths of the two visages were completely identical. The sizes of the two picture frames were also measured to be the same. The visual difference of one-third was clearly seen, but measurements with the ruler even yielded identical results. Good heavens! How would scientists explain this?
The key is that the visages are placed in the hall for viewing by the public. Any pious Buddhist can pay homage and view respectfully. This occurrence is a simple fact. At this time, everyone was dawned to understand that the reason is because this location is the holy position where the revered body of Holy Venerable Yin Hai was once worshipped. Now Holy Venerable Yin Hai again applied His sacred Vajra power through the extremely mysterious and miraculous manifestation. From two visages with the same size and dimension, such tremendous difference even appeared. This is the “Illusorily Manifested Miraculous Visage Sharira” that Holy Venerable Yin Hai left to living beings! We can imagine and know how great the accomplishment of Holy Venerable Yin Hai is! This is exactly why Namo Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva of great compassion let the Holy Venerable manifest again a miraculous holy state. Holy Venerable Yin Hai is a tremendously holy and virtuous elder monk who attained accomplishment through practicing the dharma of Red Kuan Yin of Magnificent Ocean of Great Compassion.
For so many years, World Buddhism Association Headquarters never designated a site for offering lamps. However, thinking about the fact that Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva and Holy Venerable Yin Hai are benefiting living beings and also praying for living beings at all times, this temple decided to install lamps of brightness starting from February 19, 2019. Faithful Buddhists can all beseech and light auspicious lamps of brightness in this Guan Yin Hall where the Holy Venerable manifested the holy state, for the success and satisfaction of themselves and their family, relatives, and friends in their undertakings, health, and everything. Every day, this temple will have dharma masters to pray for you by transferring merit of chanting sutras, chanting mantras, and practicing dharmas before the lamps of brightness.

Attachment (a testimony from the funeral directors providing the service at the Universal Chung Wah Funeral Directors)

United International World Buddhism Association Headquarters,
The opportunity of providing our service to Elder Dharma Master Yin Hai or Master Xiao Ming, an eminent monk of the World Buddhism Association Headquarters, that we at the Universal Chung Wah Funeral Directors had this time was a completely new experience to us. When Master Xiao Ming first entered our funeral home and we were performing the services of dressing him and so on, he is a very thin elderly person with a protruding bone frame. However, after more than 20 days, he unexpectedly changed into a different person. His bone frame and muscles became very fully filled. The wrinkles also disappeared. We unintentionally discovered that he had more beard grown, including three new black strands. The nails on his fingers also grew a little longer. We thought this was truly very mysterious and surprising. We have been doing funeral services for decades but never saw such occurrence or even heard of one in the past. The Master’s cultivation was so good.
We would like to again thank World Buddhism Association Headquarters for giving us this opportunity to provide service to Master Xiao Ming. We wish you success in all your undertakings!
