(Chinese) Why do all the fellow initiates who practice the Quan Yin Method have (inner or outer) experiences? Master answered a series of questions. Fellow initiates talked about their miraculous experiences. The child of a fellow initiate had a fever for a week. The doctor couldn’t heal him, but after wearing Master’s photo for five minutes, his fever lessened. The initiate asked Master if they could use the same treatment next time. While driving on the road, a fellow initiate’s car overturned, but why was ...

(Chinese) Fellow initiates shared their inner experiences Some people saw the stars, the Moon. Some heard the sound of the bell. They asked Master how they could go higher? Is it good or bad to experience strong vibration during meditation? It’s said that the ordinary mind is Tao. How can one be “ordinary” to see Tao? Some spiritual practitioners have their Ren and Du meridians opened (which control Yang and Ying meridians in the whole body respectively), so their bodies are very sensitive. Even just ...

(Chinese) Were the inner visions that some of the fellow initiates told Master real or illusions? It’s said that there is only a thin curtain standing between Buddha and sentient beings. What does that curtain represent? Why is it said that there is originally no karma? Why cannot one become a Buddha by worshipping the wooden Buddha statue? Why is it that no matter what Master does, such as eating, sleeping, and meditating, She is always helping people? What is Bodhi Satto? How is Bodhi Satto’s level ...

(Chinese) “Buddha and Bodhisattvas don’t mind our shortcomings. They only help us cleanse our shortcomings. Otherwise, we can’t keep ourselves clean after falling here! That’s how it is after falling here. Even if we don’t think of anything bad, other people’s thoughts will contaminate our atmosphere. That’s why sometimes after bumping into certain people, you felt very restless. Or, you were meditating very well, but after receiving a phone call, you couldn’t continue sitting still anymore. The ...

(Chinese) What is the true offering? Why can a true spiritual practitioner benefit a thousand people and feed a hundred people without doing anything? What’s the meaning of the phrase “there is originally no karma?” It’s written in the Platform Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch that “When one has neither good thoughts, nor bad thoughts, one is with the Tao.” How does it relate to the teaching of “cultivating oneself, controlling the family, governing the country and pacifying the world?” What’s ...

(Chinese) How can Buddha be manifested in tens of billions of forms? Master says, “It’s not merely tens of billions of manifestations. It means countless. That’s why we say countless billions of Buddha is manifested in the light. What does light mean here? It means Buddha’s own vibration and frequency. Whatever a sentient being asks for, Buddha will adapt his own vibration to that person’s so as to know the heart of that being. But this happens very fast, in just an instant or less than an instant. It’s ...

(Chinese) “At time of initiation, maybe it seemed to you that the process was not a big deal. You didn’t do any hand gesture or recite any mantra. But you have no idea how much change your soul had been through. You can’t see the invisible aspect of things. If you could see, you would know how many layers of light your soul must go through in order to take on different colors. For example, our soul was originally very dark, or only had red light. At the time of initiation, our soul would to go through a few ...

(Chinese) In this talk, Supreme Master Ching Hai tells the story of Master Milarepa of Tibet, and presents tips on how to progress in spiritual practice. Why did Milarepa achieve no results after living with his Master for over seven years? Master explains that it’s not easy for people who are cold-hearted, as Milarepa was in his youth, to advance spiritually because they have a cold atmosphere around them; cold attracts cold and like attracts like. Thus, they cannot get the warmth of love close to them and they ...

(Chinese) The son of his older brother asked a spirit medium to find his brother’s soul, but he couldn’t find him. Our initiate thought because Master’s photo was hanging there, it must have blocked the way, so his brother couldn’t come in. He excused himself and invited Master to go out so that the ghost could come in. It seemed that the Master really listened to him. She was good. She left when he asked Her to. After a while, she took that person back. The medium failed to find his soul, so the Master had ...

(Chinese) Master says: don’t ask me which religion I belong to. I believe in all religions and worship all Englightened Masters. I know who the Masters are, so I can truly worship them, truly know the greatness of Shakyamuni Buddha and what a high-level bodisattva Jesus Christ is, and admire the great wisdom of Laozi, teachings from Confucius as well as Mohammed and other Masters in the past. I’m spreading the truth from Shakyamuni Buddha and Jesus Christ and upholding wisdom from Laozi and ideal of peaceful ...
