闪电灌顶,中风竟痊愈?—佛号神奇力量的真实案例 Lightning Strikes, Stroke Miraculously Healed?

净本法师慈悲:南无阿弥陀佛
这几个月以来,我一直都有在观看您YouTube频道上的讲经开示,深感您善巧教化,就像是一位很会教书的老师,言辞生动,使我们听得非常入心及法喜,感恩法师!
因为您在讲经说法时都会说一些念佛感应的真实故事来增强大家对于念佛的信心,因此我将以我最近的见闻与您分享,祈请法师慈悲垂览。
今年(2025年)4月6日那天,太太提议前往台湾OO美术馆走走。逛着逛着,我注意到一位大约七十岁的流浪汉坐在那里,身旁循环播放〈南无阿弥陀佛〉。他的随身物品,甚至电动轮椅上,都贴着「南无阿弥陀佛」。因为我也是念佛人,这一幕让我很好奇。
我便上前自我介绍,也说明自己念佛。于是他聊起他和佛号结缘的经过:
他说在过去他与家人因不合而被赶出家门,只能在外租房。有天突然中风,右半身瘫痪,还大小便失禁,最后连房东也把他赶走。
那时他对人生非常绝望,甚至动过轻生念头。就在最低谷时,有人劝他念佛,而他也真有善根,当下深信受持。之后几乎整日都不离这句佛号。如此真诚的连续念了佛号3年。
后来有一天,他感觉他的头顶上像有一道闪电从天灵盖直贯到脚底,瘫痪的右侧突然能动了;中风症状好转了九成以上。我听到这里实在感到太不可思议了!
这位师兄如今算是一位流浪汉,常住在美术馆。有时,遇到来复健或者运动的中风患者,他就用自己的经历鼓励大家念佛。
他说,以前自己从来没这么早起念佛。某天凌晨两点,他忽然听到一个无形的声音──也不知是神还是其他众生──轻声叫他起床念佛,说这个时段最安静。于是他就从那天开始,就开始在凌晨两点起身念佛。
他说,美术馆过去曾是坟场。凌晨两点念佛时,常有一阵冷风吹来,或传出怪异声响。后来师兄便念佛回向给这些「无形好兄弟」,从此就再也没发生怪事。
看得出来,师兄的生活相当拮据。我临走前递上一千元(台币)想帮他一把,他却拒绝了。他说请他吃东西没问题,钱他绝不收──收了就容易动贪心,开始比较「这个人给多少、那个人给多少」,反而徒增烦恼。
师兄经常缺粮,但即使肚子饿,也要守住道心。这种坚持深深打动了我,当下差点落泪。后来我去便利店买了些食物和饮料请他享用。那天能遇见这位师兄,我真是幸运;从他身上学到许多,收获满满。
佛在《观无量寿经》里说:「光明遍照十方世界,念佛众生摄取不舍。」师兄的经历让我明白:肉眼看不见手机讯号,讯号仍然真实存在;同样,我们看不见佛光,却始终在佛光的护佑之中。
师兄宁愿挨饿也不动贪心,这才是真正的勇者。他身无长物,心里只有佛号,因此内心自在,不被烦恼缠绕。反观我们普通人,拥有太多却放不下,往往被执念拖累,日子反而不好过。
我在附近有一间套房,每逢周六、周日会从高雄搭火车过来住两天。担心那位师兄挨饿,我原想每周都到美术馆供养他。结果到了下个星期(4 月 13 日)却没见到他;再隔一周的周六(4 月 19 日)仍然不见人影。我怀疑自己来得太晚,便在 4 月 20 日星期日一早八点多就赶到美术馆,还是找不到。于是我询问正在扫地的清洁人员,问她是否认识一位整天播放「南无阿弥陀佛」佛号的先生。旁边正在运动的一位太太听见,主动告诉我:那位先生是流浪汉,已在这里住了两年多。他原是职业军人退伍,先前申请入住荣民之家(军人退役的照顾设施),如今申请已通过,已经搬进去安顿了。
听到这个好消息,我替师兄感到无比欣慰——他终于不用再颠沛流离,有荣民之家的照顾,晚年生活能更安稳自在,这真是最佳结果。
这一连串际遇,仿佛冥冥中有阿弥陀佛安排;若我再晚一个星期去美术馆,就再也遇不到他了。这段经历令我对念佛法门更加深信不疑,也分享给学佛念佛的同修,盼他们同样信受弥陀名号,乘佛愿力,将来往生西方极乐,永离苦恼。

今年(2025年)4月6日那天,太太提議前往台灣OO美術館走走。逛著逛著,我注意到一位大約七十歲的流浪漢坐在那裡,身旁循環播放〈南無阿彌陀佛〉。他的隨身物品,甚至電動輪椅上,都貼著「南無阿彌陀佛」。因為我也是念佛人,這一幕讓我很好奇。
我便上前自我介紹,也說明自己念佛。於是他聊起他和佛號結緣的經過:
他說在過去他與家人因不合而被趕出家門,只能在外租房。有天突然中風,右半身癱瘓,還大小便失禁,最後連房東也把他趕走。

後來有一天,他感覺他的頭頂上像有一道閃電從天靈蓋直貫到腳底,癱瘓的右側突然能動了;中風症狀好轉了九成以上。我聽到這裡實在感到太不可思議了!
這位師兄如今算是一位流浪漢,常住在美術館。有時,遇到來復健或者運動的中風患者,他就用自己的經歷鼓勵大家念佛。

Lightning Strikes, Stroke Miraculously Healed?
—A True Account of the Buddha-Name’s Wondrous Power
| Recorded by layman practitioner, Li. |
Venerable Jingben, with great compassion: Namo Amitabha Buddha
Over the past few months I have been watching the Dharma talks on your YouTube channel. Your skillful teaching, vivid language, and lively examples draw us in and fill us with Dharma joy. I am truly grateful, Venerable Master!
Because you often relate true stories of miraculous responses to the Buddha-name in order to strengthen our faith in Nianfo, I would like to share a recent experience of mine for your compassionate review.
On 6 April 2025 my wife suggested that we visit the Art Museum in Taiwan. While strolling around, I noticed a roughly seventy-year-old homeless man sitting there with a recording of “Namo Amitabha Buddha” playing on loop. Every belonging he had—even his motorized wheelchair—was plastered with “Namo Amitabha Buddha.” As a fellow practitioner of nianfo, I was intrigued.
I introduced myself and mentioned that I, too, recite the Buddha-name. He then told me how he formed his connection with it:
In earlier years he was forced to leave home due to family discord and could only afford to rent a small room. One day he was struck by a sudden stroke that left his right side paralyzed and robbed him of bladder and bowel control; before long the landlord asked him to move out as well.
In this darkest hour he felt utterly hopeless and even contemplated ending his life. A passer-by urged him to recite the Buddha-name, and—thanks to deep-rooted karmic affinity—he accepted the advice at once, chanting almost without pause for the next three years.
One day, he continued, he felt as though a bolt of lightning shot from his head straight to the soles of his feet; his paralyzed right side suddenly moved again, and over ninety percent of his stroke symptoms vanished. I was astonished!
Today he lives like a wanderer at the museum. Whenever he meets stroke patients who come for rehab or exercise, he encourages them with his own story.
He said that in the past he never rose early to recite. One night at 2 a.m. he heard an inaudible voice—he wasn’t sure whether it was a deity or some other being—gently telling him to get up to recite because the time was especially quiet. From then on he has risen at 2 a.m. every day for nianfo.
The museum, he added, was once a cemetery. At that early hour, cold winds often blew and strange sounds arose, so he dedicated the Nianfo merit to the “unseen beings” there, and the disturbances ceased.
It was obvious that his life was very frugal. As I was about to leave, I offered him NT $1,000, but he refused. He said that treating him to food was fine, but he would never accept money—once you take cash it easily breeds greed and comparisons: “How much did this person give? How much did that one give?”—only increasing affliction.
Though being hungry often, he strives to keep his resolve unshaken. His determination moved me to tears. I bought food and drinks for him at a convenience store. Meeting him that day was a blessing; I learned so much.
The Buddha says in the Contemplation Sutra:
“His light universally illuminates the worlds of the ten directions and embraces those beings who recite the Buddha-name, never abandoning them.”
This brother’s experience made me realize: we cannot see cell-phone signals, yet they unquestionably exist; likewise, we cannot see the Buddha’s light, yet we are always within its protection.
He would rather endure hunger than give in to greed—this is a true hero. Owning nothing but the Buddha-name in his heart, he abides in ease, free from vexation. We ordinary people have so much yet cannot let go, and our clinging only makes life harder.
I have a studio apartment nearby and take the train from Kaohsiung every weekend to stay for two days. Worried that he might be starving, I planned to bring offerings each week. But the next Sunday (13 April) he was nowhere to be found, nor the following Saturday (19 April). Suspecting I arrived too late, I hurried to the museum early on Sunday, 20 April, yet still could not locate him. I asked a cleaning lady whether she knew a man who constantly played “Namo Amitabha Buddha.” A woman exercising nearby overheard and volunteered: that gentleman was a homeless veteran who had lived there for over two years. He had applied for admission to a Veterans’ Home, and his application had now been approved; he had moved in and settled down.
Hearing this, I felt immense relief—he no longer had to roam and could enjoy a stable, peaceful life at the Veterans’ Home. It was the best possible outcome.
This whole chain of events felt as though it had been quietly arranged by Amitabha Buddha; had I visited the art museum just one week later, I would never have met him. The experience has made me even more confident in the practice of nianfo. I now share it with fellow practitioners, hoping they too will place their faith in Amitabha’s Name, rely on His vow-power, and one day be reborn in the Western Land of Ultimate Bliss, forever free from suffering.
