\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 We now publish the Dharma image of the Elder Monk Yinhai, as well as some other pictures. The body of Holy Monk Yinhai underwent a divine transformation ten days after His passing, setting up the first instance of divine transformation after passing in the entire Buddhist history. Buddhist cultivators can worship these pictures and thus receive great blessings. There are seven pictures:<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 1. A picture of Elder Monk Yinhai taken a few years ago;<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 2. The group picture of the assembly and Elder Monk Yinhai eleven hours after His passing on the same day;<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 3. The group picture of the Dharma masters, rinpoches, and the Elder Monk\u2019s Vajra Dharma body that is as hard as iron and stone, thirty-one days after the passing of Elder Monk Yinhai;<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 4. A comparison picture between what was taken eleven hours after Elder Monk Yinhai\u2019s passing, in which He looked very old, skinny, and deeply wrinkled, and what was taken twenty-four days after his passing, in which He looked full and fleshed.

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 7. The praise verse Wangzha Shangzun wrote for Elder Monk Yinhai<\/p>

Translation<\/em>
The verse of praise<\/em>
Monk Yinhai\u2019s merit shines throughout heaven and earth<\/em>
The nine precept scars emitted light that broke the darkness in the sanctuary room<\/em>
With great compassion and Bodhi the unknown one now leaves His name known<\/em>
On His vows He returned to the upper level lotus in the World of Ultimate Bliss<\/em>
The holy venerable one\u2019s flesh underwent a great divine transformation<\/em>
Thus establishing a new holy chapter of passing in Buddhist history<\/em>
Earlier we practiced together in a cave in the deep mountains<\/em>
Later we both followed the true teachings and got near the Buddha<\/em>
