Master's Wonders

One morning a man called me from the Toronto International Airport and said he was a reader of the Supreme Master Ching Hai News magazine. He just arrived from Singapore to settle down in Toronto, Canada. He did not know anyone in this new country except my name from the list of contact persons in Master's News magazine. He asked me to help him to find a placeto live. I told him to call back in an hour so I could have time to find a way to help him. I called one of our sister initiates and informed her of his story. She immediately phoned one of her friends who had a room available for rent at a price that the man could afford. The arrangement was completed within fifteen minutes over the phone. The man called me back in the afternoon to thank me and wanted to meet me to know more about myself and our group.

When this unexpected job was finished, I knew that this was Master's arrangement because every time I call this sister initiate, she is usually not home. Today she picked up the phone on the first ring and usually it would take weeks in order to find a suitable room or apartment in Toronto.

Only by reading Master's News magazine, this man was already taken care of by our compassionate Master. If we, fellow initiates, practice diligently, we become carefree and fearless. Master's love for all sentient beings is really boundless!!!!¡¹

Early this year, my second older sister gave me a copy of Master's sample booklet. Bliss filled my heart as I read it. Before that, some relatives had given me sample booklets from other masters, but I didn't have any feelings after reading them.

Having read Master's sample booklet, spontaneously and without any pressure I began to observe a vegetarian diet and practiced the Convenient Method. However, I still could not quit my deep addiction to cigarette smoking; I used to consume several packs a day.

One day, I noticed that Master's poster hanging on the wall in my room kept falling off even though I had affixed it with double-sided tape. A thought flashed through my mind: Could the cause be that I had been smoking in the room? I decided not to smoke in that room anymore. Hence, Master's poster didn't fall off again, and I hadn't even changed the adhesive tape!

I was unmindful and was blinded by my bad habit then, so I overlooked Master's loving expectation, concern and call to me! Nevertheless, She continued to take care of me while I was practicing the Convenient Method. My heart was deeply stirred and moved. Subsequently, I quit my addiction to smoking easily. Until now, that intense feeling of gratitude is still reverberating in my heart, nourishing my soul while I walk on the spiritual path.¡¹
