下雨了?是的。報導說,次日凌晨在北加州的曼都仙諾縣一帶(萬佛聖城所在地),已開始下雨。上午十一時半,大雨驟降三藩市。曾在當時採訪求雨法會的記者們,回到馬克斯草地,做現場報導:「這裡是佛教徒們設壇求雨的地方,現在已開始下雨。正如他們所祈求的一樣。放置佛桌的地方已經有一汪水。」上人雖沒有去金門公園,但他留在金山寺加持整個求雨過程。

Did it rain? Yes it did. Early the following morning, rain was reported in Mendocino County (in the area around the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas), northern California. By 11:30 a.m. rain pelted San Francisco and the news reporters who had covered the Dharma Gathering for Rain returned to Marx Meadow for an on-the-spot report.
“Right there was the altar where the Buddhists prayed for rain,” she reported.
“Now it was raining, just as they had sought, and where the altar had stood was a huge puddle of water.” The Master did not go to Golden Gate Park. He stayed back, behind the scenes, directing the entire Dharma Assembly.
