Magic Over Sciences

A story of a man who was a very likable, sensitive, and kind kid and turned to be so overtly fascinated with magic when he grown up. He followed one of a magician master to study more on magic and disappeared for 3 years since then. His mom really missed and worried about him. Is he still alive? Are magic acts considered deceiving acts? Is it a proper profession according to Buddhism?

Cock-fight

He watched a special report in DMC about the closedown of a cock-fight gambling den in Saraburi province. This made he think of his father who liked to collect the Buddha images, gambled cock-fight and watched Thai-boxing because his dad was a boxer. What retributions caused his father to be sick and went in and out of the hospital for 5 years? What retributions caused him to have eye surgery, cirrhosis, vomit blood-clots, hiccup with the sound “cock-a-doodle-doo”, and difficulty in eating and drinking water?

Spell for Searching Sacred Amulet

He recited heart of hermit and made a wish for three amulets in front of empty ground. At the end of his spell, there were more amulets than he wished for appearing before him. When he was about to grab them, those extra amulets disappeared through the sand and into the cave.

Your Son Is From Dusita Heaven

The day before she gave birth to our baby, I had a dream that I went to select jewelry in a palace. The next day, my wife gave birth to our son. On the day of our son’s birth, our whole family chanted in the delivery room.

Selling Poverty

My brother in law had kidney failure, but he did not want to have treatment because he wanted to save money to make donations for the kathin ceremony at the hometown temple. He said that my sister wanted to make a donation for this kathin ceremony but she died before she could do it. He was afraid that when he wanted to make a donation, he would also die before having the opportunity. Why is it so difficult to make this merit? "You can see that we have to make merit quickly. We should not wait."

A Floating City

He was ordained as a novice 3 times and during his last ordination he was firmly determined to lead a monastic life all his life even though at that time he was in grade 8th. He said even though he had to be there all by himself he could do that; as he was ordained he didn’t want to disrobe because he had Nibbana as the goal and he would not feel lonely.He wanted to stay there, he wanted to meditate and disseminate the teachings of the Lord Buddha.

Beloved Teacher

A life story of chinsese woman who was lucky than any others. She got a chance to study in University; even though, her mom refused to send her daughters for high education per Chinese’s belief. And, what are the retributions of angriness each other since past life? How are the situations between having physical body meditate in the hall that the great root teacher controlling merits and listening radio broadcast in the office alone provide merits and progress of meditation differently?..DMC has the answers.
