"And so you see that the wonderful aspects of the Shurangama Mantra are difficult to express, difficult to conceptualize.
Wherever someone is seriously reciting the Shurangama Mantra, a great white canopy will be there in the space above him.
If your skill in reciting the mantra is high-level and far-reaching, then when you recite, the canopy will extend for thousands of miles, preventing any disasters or difficulties. If you only have a little skill, then the canopy will be right above your own head protecting you. If you have virtue in the Way, if you are a High Sanghan, then when you recite, the entire nation will be benefitted and no calamities will occur. Or if disasters are unavoidable, big ones will turn into little ones, and the little ones won't even happen." - Venerable Master Hsuan Hua
