Integrity. Everyone loves a person with this quality. We all know, deep in our bones, that a person who is honest, holds on to their principles, and keeps their promises is probably a decent human being.
Just as we, in the human realm, appreciate integrity in a person, so too do the other realms. People who demonstrate integrity tend to receive more favour from Spirit. Dishonest and double-minded people, on the other hand, tend to go nowhere in their spiritual walk. Even if they appear to be doing well in their spirituality at first, their lack of integrity inevitably catches up with them.
No one fools the Divine. It’s a comforting thought. It’s also a lesson that my dear son, Mini-Me, learnt the hard way.
Mini-Me has always been pretty good at his studies. He’s hardworking and motivated. He’s also a bit of a perfectionist, so when he was promoted to Primary Five some years ago and experienced the jolt of a steeper learning curve, Mini-Me naturally became a bit worried.
Mini-Me wasn’t used to making so many mistakes, or struggling to catch up with new learning concepts. So the next time Mini-Me tagged along on my visit to the Goddess of Mercy temple along Waterloo Street, he decided to do something he knew I’d done before:
He made a secret vow.
That’s right – he told no one, not even me.
Little Mini-Me asked Guanyin to help him score well in his year-end examinations. In return, he promised to come back to the temple and thank Her. Being the Goddess of infinite help and Divine Mercy, naturally She agreed.
Guanyin kept Her end of the bargain: Mini-Me aced his exams. He did very well. I took him out for a nice dinner to celebrate; Mini-Me enjoyed his year-end break, and got ready for Primary Six. And that was the end of it.
Except it wasn’t.
Mini-Me had forgotten the most important thing of all, and Guanyin was about to teach my son the value of keeping one’s promises.

“Mum… I feel warm.”
The thermometer read 38 degrees Celsius. I took Mini-Me to the doctor immediately – aside from the high temperature, he showed no other symptoms. The doctor shrugged. “Probably a viral infection. Nothing serious.”
Back home, gulping down his sickly sweet medicinal syrup, Mini-Me grumbled. “Mum, my exams are in a week. If I have a fever, they won’t let me go to school.”
“Take your meds and rest. I’m sure the fever will go down soon.”
The fever did not go down. Over the next three days, Mini-Me’s temperature fluctuated between 38 and 38.5 degrees Celsius. Thankfully, he wasn’t in pain: just slightly uncomfortable from being constantly warm, and bored from being stuck all day in an air-conditioned room. But Mini-Me’s exams were the next week, and if he didn’t recover by the weekend, there was no way he would be allowed to take his exams in school.
Mini-Me was worried. So was my mother, who quietly tapped me on the shoulder and whispered once we were out of Mini-Me’s earshot. “Kelly, go and speak with Guanyin. What is happening to your son is not normal. She will have the answer.”
I nodded. With the Lightwork that I do, I sometimes get up close and personal with dark entities. Exorcisms, hex breakings and space clearings are essentially confrontations between light and darkness, truth and falsehood. During these processes, the dark entities causing the disturbances are usually escorted over to the Other Side. But not all of them are willing to go, and some do escape. Understandably, I’d made enemies, some of whom still roam the earthly realm. Perhaps one of them was trying to harm my son.
I prayed. Guanyin answered immediately, but not in a way I’d expected.
Get My divination lots, and cast a lot. It will tell you everything.
Guanyin’s divination lots are an extremely powerful means of accessing Divine wisdom. The One Hundred Divination Lots of Guanyin were created over 1100 years ago, and are about twice as old as the Tarot. They are usually consulted only once for each situation, and are generally regarded as the final word from a kind, very merciful, and infinitely powerful Goddess.
I took the canister of divination lots from the altar in my prayer room, made a silent request in my heart for clarity in Mini-Me’s situation, and shook the canister rhythmically, back and forth, while I focused on the question I’d asked. After a while, one lot fell to the ground. I picked it up. I forgot which divination lot I cast, but I remember the interpretation of that lot with regards to health issues:
A vow must be repaid before the ill person can recover.
I wasted no time: I pulled Mini-Me out of his room, shoved him in the car, and we drove down to the Guanyin temple at Waterloo Street immediately. As I drove, I told him about the divination lot Guanyin had given me.
“What vow, Mini-Me? What on earth did you say to Her?”
“Uhhh… I just asked Guanyin to help me for my exams, and then I’ll come back to the temple and say thank you…”
“Well, did you?” The answer was obvious, but I pressed on.
“No, I kinda forgot… Also I was really busy and you always went to the temple when I was in school…”
“When did you make this vow?”
“About a year ago.”
Guanyin had waited a year for my son to keep his promise. ONE YEAR. There really wasn’t any excuse for what Mini-Me had failed to do.
I sighed inwardly as I parked the car. “Okay, kiddo. You know what to do.”
We walked in silence to the temple, which was bright and bustling in the afternoon sun – filled with devotees praying to the Goddess with steepled hands, offering gorgeous flowers and ripe fruits at Her altar, raising sticks of fragrant incense in the front yard, and noisily shaking their canisters of divination lots within the sanctuary itself.
The Guanyin temple at Waterloo Street is incredibly powerful. In all of Singapore, I’ve never entered another sanctuary in which Her presence is so strong. It was in this temple, in January 2018, that Guanyin officially called me to Her service.
We had barely entered the temple sanctuary when I heard Her speak. I winced at the unusual sharpness in Her voice:
Is this how you raise your son?
I’ve only ever seen Guanyin angry twice in my entire life. This was the second time. It’s frankly terrible when the Goddess of Mercy is roused to anger. Her nature is always to have mercy: it takes a serious screw-up to get Guanyin mad.
I could only bow my head and apologise profusely. At the tender age of 12, Mini-Me’s karma was still considered my responsibility as his parent – in a sense, his sins were mine.
But true to Her nature, once I apologised, Her anger passed. This is the wonderful thing about Guanyin: She responds with such great love and compassion to every sincere cry from the heart. That’s why Her name literally means ‘The One Who Hears The Cries of The Suffering World’. Turning to Mini-Me, I saw his eyes shut tightly, hands clutched together in fervent prayer as he thanked Guanyin and said sorry for not fulfilling his vow earlier.
I turned back, and saw Guanyin smiling. Mini-Me had fulfilled his vow at last, and we were forgiven. We went home – I was relieved, and my heart felt much lighter.
True to Her promise, the Goddess healed my son. Mini-Me’s fever broke within three hours of our temple visit. By night time, he was perfectly fine. The next week, he went to school and aced his exams again.
This time, we went back to the temple as soon as he received his results, and gave thanks to the Goddess.
