Answer Seventeen:
Magicians can use lights, lasers, chemicals, and even earthquake-proof houses that make people unable to stand steady. They can make airplanes and cars disappear or appear. However, no magician can make a piece of paper that everyone writes themselves (placed on the table in front of everyone) disappear into thin air while everyone watches over the paper at the table, and the magician stands far away, asking the Bodhisattva to turn this paper into a rainbow light and direct it towards the void. Only the teacher of a great holy Bodhisattva can do this, even an Arhat cannot. It should be noted that "sending a letter" and "transforming a letter" are two different things. "Sending a letter" is writing a document on a piece of paper on the spot, without using fire. The disciples chant "Om Ah Hum" in their minds, and this piece of paper turns into a rainbow and flies away without a trace. On the other hand, "transforming a letter" is burning a letter with fire, and any one of you can do that.
