Two years ago, I was very fortunate to have been introduced to Dorje Shugden by my Lama. There was nothing very dramatic about my experience, compared to what I have heard from some of my friends. What I can share is a bit about my family and partner.

My Lama had advised me to recite Dorje Shugden’s mantra for my family members (immediate and far) and my partner. My immediate family had been going through financial problems year after year and the problems never seemed to come to an end.

In spite of all the problems, I’m happy to share that with Dorje Shugden’s blessings, we were always able to get by everyday. I remember that at our lowest point, my family members had to share one packet of rice for lunch and dinner among the three of them.

This went on for a while but during those days, people would somehow come to visit and take them out for a meal. Also, my Lama would kindly arrange for people to bring groceries for my family.

We did not reveal our situation to anyone at the time, not even to my Lama, as I did feel that we were being helped by Dorje Shugden. Although our financial problems are still not completely solved now, I still feel very blessed that this situation has actually made my family stronger.

We also don’t suffer as much as we did before, when we would become very stressed out, worry for days and sometimes even have big arguments. With Dorje Shugden’s practice, things have become calmer and our minds are more stable.

When I first started this practice, my Lama also advised me to recite many mantras for my partner, as we were having a lot of arguments and experiencing a lot of unhappiness. This was because I spent a lot of time at work and was busy with Dharma activities, which left me with little time for him and his family.

I remember I even prayed to Dorje Shugden that if this partner was not meant to be with me, to please divert him to look for another new partner that would be better for him. He is still with me now.

"In the same year, my partner had an accident, which resulted in a serious leg injury, and he had to go through two operations. My Lama again advised me to recite Dorje Shugden’s mantra and blow onto his wounds as many times as I could. This was to help him recover faster and not to have any further complications. His recovery went very smoothly and well." ~ Aimee

I do hope my sharing can inspire you to also start this holy practice and may you always be protected by Dorje Shugden.
