I heard: On His way to practicing the dharma, whenever facing trouble and dilemma, He recalled the difficulties the Sakyamuni had in His time. Soon after, a fluorescent light diffused, and the Master appeared on the wooden loft of Lord Supreme Maitreya in Nha Trang. He gladly bowed to His Master, and they were having a discussion in which the Master taught Him the teaching of Buddha. Another time, Sakyamuni Buddha complained to Lord Supreme Maitreya at the same wooden loft at 42, Hong Bang Street, Nha Trang, regarding the following:

“In present India, under Mrs. Gandhi's government, my children monks and nuns, living in pagodas in the cities, are being chased out to the countryside and to the mountains area. They are in danger!”

They are in danger!

Later, Mrs. Gandhi's regime fell down. Her son succeeding her to be the Prime Minister did not change the policy and followed his mother’s policy. A bomb killed him afterwards. Today, the Indian political regime changed, and the economy changed to a market economy.

Let's recall another special event in 1963, in South Vietnam, when Ngo Dinh Diem was President. After the struggle of the Buddhists, there were several monks and nuns who were arrested and put in a bag and threw in the river by Diem and Nhu’s subordinates, and several monks, nuns and Buddhist believers were beat to death. In that same year, Ngo Dinh Diem's regime fell, Diem and Nhu, his brother, were both killed. In the eye of the meditator who has the Tathagata sight and can see far into the past, it is known that in his former life, Ngo Dinh Diem was Alexandre de Rhodes, the French bishop. At the time, he had the merit of research and education of the national language and his social contribution to the Vietnamese people. As a blessed reward, he got his direct compensation and reigned as President of South Vietnam for ten years.
