Have you liberated animals before ? The Fang Sheng ritual of
seeking blessings for your health.
I have attended Fang Sheng activities with the chanting to help
the animals to take refuge in Buddha, Dharma and Sangha so that in
the next life they are reborn, they have affinity with
Buddha. (sowing a dharma seed for them while they are in the
animal realm).
What i want to share are the sweet experiences i had with
the animals.
The birds will fly back to my door and window. They will chirp
and sing songs.
One pair of sweet yellow birds (from Indonesia) became a couple
and they flew back to my window together and peep in at me while i
was doing my praying.
I know these yellow birds (small like sparrows) because they are
rare.
Even the bird seller will not allow me to release the birds in
front of his shop because he told me they will fly back to the
shop.
When you release the birds, they seem to show their gratitude by
seeking you out.
It's a joy to see the birds re-appearing in front of your house
occasionally and chirp their songs to you.
Actually animals do have 灵性的。A few months' ago, I was playing
the amituofo song in my bedroom while doing my homework around
5pm+, a 八哥/Javan Myna flew into my bedroom window and stood there
listened to the song. I was quite surprised and quickly recorded
down as video using my iphone. The bird stood on my window panel
until it fell alseep. So I just on my amituofo song non stop for
the bird to listen. The next morning around 7am, the bird then flew
away and left me lots of bird shit to clear on my window panel.
Hahaha
八哥/Javan Myna can be frequently seen near coffeeshop as they
always like to steal the left-over food. They are always on high
alert and will fly away if the customers or cleaners come near
them. When I took the video of the 八哥/Javan Myna near the window,
at about less than 20cm away, it wasnt scare of me at all. Guess
the bird was very engrossed in listening to the amituofo song. Hope
the bird will reborn in western paradise soon.
