Miracles of Faith | Miracles of Faith
During the years of religious practice in the Shanhua Dongyue Temple, there have been many awe-inspiring and moving miracles.
These miracles, whether they occurred on the golden statue of the deity or manifested in the life transitions of believers, all bear witness to the mercy, spiritual power and protection of the deity.
The Great Emperor of Dongyue is so powerful and majestic that he not only protects the local area from harm but also strengthens people's faith through his miraculous deeds.
We are here to record these remarkable miracles that have occurred, are continuously felt, and truly exist, and we invite you to witness the power of God and feel the strength of faith.
The miracle of temple construction
In order to show the divine power of Emperor Dongyue, the Jade Emperor specially bestowed a divine dragon on Emperor Dongyue and set up a dragon-welcoming formation on the top of the mountain in Nanhua Reservoir. In 1995, there were many typhoons, but the flags of the dragon-welcoming formation were not blown down. Instead, the betel nut trees and banana trees next to the formation fell down, but the flags inside the formation remained standing. It was truly a miracle.
On December 16th of the 94th year, the dragon was led back to the palace. On the night of the 15th, the Great Emperor went to the top of Nanhua Mountain to keep watch. At midnight, a strong wind blew violently and the sound of the storm startled him awake. When he went out of the tent, there was silence. But inside the tent, there were sounds of strong winds and heavy rain. It was very strange. It turned out that it was the sound of the Great Emperor subduing and following the dragon.
A god with a heart
While the deities in ordinary temples are often carved from wood, cast in bronze, or made of paper, the statue of the Great Emperor Dongyue in the Dongyue Temple in Shanhua is a golden statue imbued with miraculous qualities. From the inside out, it possesses a unique spirituality and is crafted from exquisitely crafted materials.
This is not a legend, but a miracle created by faith and oracle.
- 💓 Heart: Jiaxianxi Spirit Stone It is said that there is a spirit stone picked up from Jiaxianxi hidden inside the deity. After being placed in the body, it glows red, like a beating heart, symbolizing the unity between the deity and the believers.
- 🩸 Blood vessels: The thousand-year-old banyan tree aerial roots use the naturally extending aerial roots of the banyan tree, symbolizing the connection and endless protection of life.
- 🦴 Ribs: The skin of the hundred-year-old thorn bamboo is specially selected from bamboo grown over a hundred years old. It is tough and spiritual, forming the shape of the skeleton of the deity.
- 👤 Skeleton: The main trunk of thirty-year-old peach wood uses peach wood, a Taoist symbol of the sacred wood that suppresses evil spirits, as the main body of the golden body, to calm the house and protect the law.
- 🧔 Beard: Made of real hair from young girls. Not only is the beard made with real hair from young girls, but it is even said that the beard will grow long. When believers trim it regularly, they are amazed at the real existence of miracles.
This golden statue of the Great Emperor Dongyue was completed in accordance with divine oracles, instructions from past years, and carefully selected spiritual materials. It can be said to be a golden statue with spirit, energy, and the body temperature of a god.
The amazing sight of choosing one out of ten thousand by "standing divination blocks"!
Do you believe that the gods will personally provide clear guidance? On the morning of July 11, 2025, a believer made a sincere confession at the Dongyue Temple in Shanhua. Then, after casting the sacred divination blocks himself, a shocking scene occurred: the divination cup stood upright on the ground!
What is the probability of rolling a "Li Yu" (a Chinese divination block)?
According to legend, the probability of a "standing" divination block being cast is one in a thousand, or even one in ten thousand, a near-impossible occurrence. This occurrence is considered the best proof of a divine presence, beyond human control.
Being able to witness the miraculous sight of "standing divination blocks" in the temple with your own eyes is not only a feeling of faith, but also an indescribable blessing.
God's mercy and blessings
Regardless of a believer's current request, the Emperor of Mount Tai and the other gods compassionately protect all living beings. These miracles symbolize the divine hearing and guidance, encouraging us to embrace hope and move forward with determination even in the face of life's challenges.
