(English) Even if we are not together, physically, we're always together in noble purposes. I trust you do the same at home, no? Helping, right?

(English) Why is that the Quan Yin Method offers us such a powerful, immediate enlightened result? Because this is our own power, the inborn nature of God or what we call the Buddha nature. We awaken to this inborn nature, this inborn power, our real power. This power we rely on is not from outside. As Buddha said, "Rely on the Self, but no one else." "The Self" means the Buddha nature. It's our great nature, not this physical body. It's what Christians mean by "The Kingdom of God is within you."

(English) Excerpts from Supreme Master Ching Hai’s Lecture: God is the Light, God is the Word, the Word is the Light, and the Light is also the Word; if we contact with this Light or this Word of God, then we are in contact with God.
