Manifestation of Pingala

On Aug. 18, 2022, while sitting in meditation, I noticed several youths to the right of my Dharma throne. 

I asked, "Who are you?"

The one in front replied, "Pingala."

I was pleasantly surprised, "Are you the Lotus-leaf Youth (Wish-fulfilling Youth)?"

The youth answered, "Grandmaster Lu, I have appeared because you enshrined me. I am the Lotus-leaf Youth, also called the Wish-fulfilling Youth."

I asked, "What wishes do you fulfill?"

The youth replied:

I assist those who are seeking helpful relationships with valuable people.

I help those who wish to be loved and respected by a woman.

From the void or in dreams, I instruct those facing difficulties.

I remove evil ghost spirits.

I destroy black magic spells cast by evil persons.

I enable one with bad grades to be ranked number one.

I harmonize couples in discord.

I detoxify one who has been poisoned.

I smoothly resolve unfavorable lawsuits.

I help one win debates.

I see that debts are paid back to one.

I cure all kinds of illnesses.

I change haunted houses into auspicious abodes.

I enable a pregnant woman to give birth smoothly.

I cause Buddhist practitioners to swiftly attain spiritual union.

I ensure career success.

I assist one to invent new things.

I inspire one's writing.

I enable one to attain spiritual union with one's personal deity.

Upon hearing this, I exclaimed these words of praise:

"You truly are the Wish-fulfilling Youth! You are able to fulfill the wishes of sentient beings!"

I asked, "How does one perform your practice?"

The Wish-fulfilling Youth replied, "Just recite my name and make offerings to me."

"What name do I recite?"

"Pi-li-ni-ga or pi-li-yin-ga."

"How does one make offerings?"

"Please refer to Hariti and Beloved Children Accomplishment Ritual."

When Pingala had finished speaking, his entire body emitted light and he disappeared into the void.

I was totally amazed.

I asked Vimalikirti, "Why did the Wish-fulfilling Youth come to me?"

Vimalikirti answered, "In the past, Liu Yu gave you a Lotus-leaf Youth, and recently, Rev. Lianshei also gave you a Lotus-leaf Youth. This is the cause."

"What is the effect?"

"The effect is, you are spreading the Practice of Lotus-leaf Youth."

Upon hearing this, I was overjoyed!

"Om, pi-li-yin-ga, so-ha."
