Guanyin appeared at the opening ceremony of Putuo Mountain.

Guanyin appeared at the opening ceremony of Putuo Mountain.

The opening day of Nanhai Guanyin was originally cloudy, and there was no sun in the blue sky. When the host announced that the opening ceremony would begin now and unveiled the red cloth covered on the bronze statue of Guanyin in Nanhai, suddenly the sun came out, and a ray of sunshine shone on the head of Guanyin in Nanhai, glittering and glittering. There is a more magical saying: at 8: 00 15 on the same day, the master of ceremonies announced that "the unveiling ceremony of the bronze statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva began", and the miracle appeared instantly. The silvery white statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva appeared in the sky, and the believers at the scene shouted their admiration and applauded for several minutes. Many believers were moved to tears and were really filled with joy. Soon, several lotus-like reddish clouds appeared below Guanyin Bodhisattva in the sky. People say avalokitesvara appeared. Believe it or not, the parties themselves. At that time, more than 3000 people witnessed this spectacle.

This is a description found on the Internet. But I don't believe in paranormal phenomena. It may be a visual coincidence caused by atmospheric reasons, and the excessive deification of those believers makes people feel quite supernatural.

1997 Putuo Mountain Opening Ceremony Video

According to the Internet, the real event of Guanyin's appearance occurred in Fosaki, Putuo Mountain in 1997. At that time, the master was preparing to open the light for the bronze statue of Guanyin, but strange phenomena appeared in the sky. Seeing this scene, people present knelt down and prayed, as if they really saw Guanyin. What happened after the incident? Let's recall it together according to the memory of the master.

According to the master, it was September 29th, Lunar New Year 1997, and it was ready to light Guanyin. It has been windy and rainy for several days before this, and the weather is very bad. If the bad weather continues, it is a question whether the guests of Fa conference can arrive as scheduled. Everyone was at a loss at that time. I didn't expect the dark clouds in the sky to clear up. Early that morning, the master deliberately got up to look at the sky and found stars in it. He was relieved, thinking that it should be a fine day after dawn.

Unexpectedly, before the start of the conference, the sky was overcast and a heavy rain seemed inevitable. Master has prepared 4000 raincoats for everyone. Raincoats are ready. The dark clouds in the sky are still there and have no intention of dispersing. The meeting was originally planned to start at eight o'clock, but it was postponed for fifteen minutes to avoid the coming heavy rain.

After 8 o'clock 15 minutes, the voice of the mage announcing the start of the Dharma Meeting just fell, and the sky swept away the dark clouds like a pair of big hands, and a beam of sunshine shone down. People who saw this scene knelt down and worshipped devoutly. Looking up at the sky, the master vaguely saw the figure of Guanyin Bodhisattva and looked down at the people at the Dharma Meeting.

However, some people questioned the scene at that time. If this astronomical phenomenon did not appear on the same day, would people still give this scene a strange color if Putuo Mountain, or the Fa Conference, or the time of the Fa Conference was not postponed?

The wonders of the day appeared just right, just like manual manipulation, and everyone who witnessed them was very happy. They naturally associate faith with the appearance of Guanyin. Don't say people who believe in Buddhism, just say that ordinary people will think of Guanyin when they see such a scene.
