Years ago, as a new resident, I was young and exuberant, and encountered a number of tests and setbacks; I felt very frustrated.

One day while we were cultivating land on a hill slope, Master quietly approached me. Looking at a small tea tree, She said softly, "Strange! The more you nip the green tea leaves, the more it sprouts. But, just pick a few hairs off a piglet and it nearly dies." Since I was born in the year of the pig (according to eastern tradition), I immediately understood Master's encouraging meaning. I also felt the sweetness in my heart. It was like finding the answer to the riddle in a game; indeed, Master is loving me all through the testing and refining process.

Previously when frustrated, not knowing how to balance, I felt like I was being cast from the sky to the earth. Now gradually, I have learned how to keep my inner balance and always aim at growing up continuously, sprouting nonstop, no matter what the outside circumstance or my level of practice is!

I love being together with everyone, but I also enjoy being alone.

While working together in the center, planting grass, happily drinking tea, those times seems especially sweet and warm! Each corner is a beautiful painting, and I, my heart always like a child, wanders each of them in bliss!

Being alone is also intoxicating. Peacefully in my tent, listening to the raindrops falling.... How carefree it is! If you ask me about glorious heaven, it seems that it is here!
