Pearls Of Wisdom

To be the future master and the future Buddha, we have to have at least two inborn qualities. The first one is endurance. Endurance means that you can endure all that others cannot tolerate. The second is the ability of observation -- to observe, observe and to observe.

Anything we are attached to will bind us, because our attention is still not totally separated from the mundane. Our soul is liberated, but if our mind is still not liberated, then we will still be miserable in this world.

Spoken By Supreme Master Ching Hai At Raising Center, Cambodia
July 19, 1996 (Originally In Chinese)

If we truly concentrate, we can have a good life. We can survive under any circumstances; as long as we persevere and find our wisdom, life will get better naturally. It definitely will! It cannot be otherwise. Even if it does not get better, at least we have peace of mind, tranquility and happiness. That is the best!

We continue to live on, no matter what the circumstances are. In fact, if we do not expect too much, we can live under any kind of governmental system. We can think of ways not to waste our energy to resist. We can use the energy and strength to survive and live on!

If we know we are the creator of our own life, we have nothing to fear or to worry about. Sooner or later, when the time is up, our role will end.

The Master wants to give you a good example of develop, so as to develop every aspect. Not only to develop your moral standard and wisdom, but also to use these moral standards and wisdom in daily life and let them manifest.
