The most important factor in accomplishing all tasks successfully is nothing but strong willpower. Having the opportunity to always be near Master, I am in an ideal position to experience the tempering of the self to enhance one's willpower.

Master often uses adverse situations to break through and surpass the limits of time and space to instigate our infinite latent power, achieve the impossible, and create wonders out of the mundane. Of course, Her extensive knowledge of life, personal experiences, and profound inner cultivation empower Her to issue concise, prompt and effective instructions.

Master has a heavy workload. Apart from handling the invisible work within, She is often flying around the world taking care of fellow practitioners and people from various countries needing help. When it is time to serve the multitudes, Master totally ignores Her physical condition, and works with absolute devotion to accomplish a perfect result. We have never seen Her cancel an

appointment or suspend a task due to Her personal ailments. She always receives people with a glowing smile, and presents a positive and bright ambience.

In this regard, there was one incident that impressed me the most. On the third day after Master had undergone surgery in the United States, She went to Houston to comply with an invitation from the local initiates. Unable to refuse the earnest requests of the fellow practitioners, She sang many songs that She had composed Herself. The attendants next to Her could not help shedding tears. We will never know how much pain Master endured. In fact, She was enlightening us through Her actions: Renounce your attachment to the body; then there is nothing that you cannot accomplish.

Whenever I encounter setbacks in life or work, I always remind myself of Master's example. The life of an enlightened Master is a lesson for us all. I can hardly describe how fortunate I feel to be born during the lifetime of an enlightened Master.
