(Master says that enlightened Masters have hundreds of billions of manifestation bodies. […] Is this just a small magical power within the three realms, which is different from the manifestation bodies of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas?) Some have more manifestation bodies and some less – like some of you. Sometimes, you also have your manifestation bodies after practicing a little bit, but they’re not omnipresent. You might appear in two or three places, but not the whole universe, not omnipresent.

(There’s another thing. That is Master’s care for me. Yesterday morning at about 7 o’clock, I… I arrived at the Public Security Bureau at 8:30. I went to the Municipal Public Security Bureau for the last procedure. I got my ticket around 11AM, and boarded the airplane at 3:20PM. I arrived at the ashram last night. I thank Master very much for taking care of me all the way.) OK.

(I still have one more thing to tell Master. I have a friend. He… Well… Anyway, he has some psychic ability. He doesn’t believe in this or that, but I think of him as my friend. I really want him to learn Master’s teachings. After he came back from overseas, I invited him to stay at my house for a week. I let him listen to Your tapes. In the beginning, he still didn’t believe in You. But on the second day, he not only believed, but he said that I… He said, “Wow! There is a big umbrella, a Light umbrella, over your head!” I said I couldn’t see it myself. I laughed and thought, “Thank You, Master. Master helped me.” So, he believed that it was also because of Master’s Power. OK, that’s it. Thank You, Master.)

(Hallo, Master. First, I’d like to thank You for helping me to understand two big problems in my life. I’m a medical student, a doctor. That is why I always have to touch people’s bodies, and I never used to believe in the soul. But I started reading Master’s books, watching the videos and listening to the audio tapes. Actually, all of Master’s… I read and watched Master’s lectures through a fellow initiate. I also bought many books myself. After comparing back and forth, I felt that Master’s words were very true. Because Master said that spiritual practitioners don’t tell lies, I believe 100% in Master’s words. Therefore, even though I studied medicine, and I am a typical materialist, ever since reading Master’s books, I do believe that we have a soul besides the physical body. That’s why I was always… After reading the books, I made up my mind that I wanted to follow Master and practice spiritually. So, after opening Master’s booklet “Immediate Enlightenment,” I became a vegan right away.

And only a few days after that, I had a dream. I dreamed that I was in a lecture hall where Master had spoken, but all the fellow initiates were gone. Nobody was there except me. I went outside to get initiated. Then Master told me… She said, “I’ll be waiting for you.” After waking up, I felt that the dream was so strange. I thought, “Why is Master waiting for me? If I want to find Master, it’s me who should go find Her. Master is not supposed to wait for me. I should wait for Master.” Master’s words made me ponder for a long time. Afterward, through the process of getting initiated, I looked back and confirmed that Master’s words… What Master said to me was very inspiring. Since 1995, I’ve been reading Master’s books, and I went vegan. I became a vegan immediately. So, my family did not understand me. They thought I was being selfish and were afraid the vegan diet would not be good for my health. I didn’t know how to explain to them. I kept in mind what Master had said that many things are tests for us. After that, I kept asking for over a year and four times I went through… What is it called? Four times… to be able to have the initiation. I just don’t know how to say it.) (Screening.)

(Oh, screening. Yes. After going through screening four times, I was qualified and passed. I think I might have had a lot of karma. Some was from myself, and some might have come from people around me. Because I was already a doctor, and I still practiced Buddhism, but I couldn’t understand it. I didn’t believe in anything in the past. I only believed in medical science. I thought those things were impossible. So later, I was indeed… After all the tests for a long time, fortunately, Master accepted me. Because the words of Master… The words of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are the highest science. It truly is like that. I’m more loving than before. I’m more loving toward my patients. It’s all due to Master’s teachings.)

(Hallo, Master. I have a question. Master says that enlightened Masters have hundreds of billions of manifestation bodies. It’s just that… After practicing to become maya, will he also have very strong supernatural powers? Because there are many Qi Gong masters in China, including the so-called guru that the sister just mentioned. He also has them. His disciples have seen his manifestation bodies. Is this just a small magical power within the three realms, which is different from the manifestation bodies of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas?) Some have more manifestation bodies and some less – like some of you. Sometimes, you also have your manifestation bodies after practicing a little bit, but they’re not omnipresent. You might appear in two or three places, but not the whole universe, not omnipresent. OK? (OK. Thank You, Master.) If you have a question, make it short and quick. Or else we won’t be able to see anything.

(Master, I still have two questions. One is that while I’m not meditating, sometimes I hear a sound coming from the right side, but this sound is not the same as the [inner Heavenly] Sound I hear during my Sound meditation.) Understand. (Can I listen to this sound?) Yes. (I can listen to it, right? Another one is that during my [inner Heavenly] Light meditation, I can’t see the Light. During my [inner Heavenly] Sound meditation, I can’t hear the Sound. But I just know when it’s time to do the Sound meditation or when it’s time to do the Light meditation again.) You’re too complicated. No wonder those invisible beings laughed at you. When you do the (inner Heavenly) Sound meditation, just do it. When you do the (inner Heavenly) Light meditation, just do it. If you see something, just look at it; if you hear something, just listen to it. OK? You think too much. Don’t think. Don’t think. (OK. Thank You.)

No matter what, you just firmly look ahead. So simple. Isn’t it very simple? Close your eyes and look straight ahead with your wisdom eye. It’s so simple. “Oh, there’s a lot of (inner Heavenly) Light! Where?” (But it seems that when I want to persist, my legs start complaining, or I cannot sit still. I just…) Just ignore it. (Oh, ignore it.) You have to persist. (Still have to persist and don’t move. Is that right?) Yes, you have to be persistent, OK? You must be brave and pass that test. Otherwise, it’s boring to stop there, right? You have to change and start a revolution. (OK.) “From now on, I’ll be my own master.” (OK.) “I don’t care if you get numb.” OK? (OK, OK, OK. Thanks.) Don’t worry, it won’t kill you. (OK. Thank You.) I guarantee you won’t die.

Others. Give everybody a chance. (Hallo, Master. I’d like to ask Master, I want to make progress in spiritual practice every day. However, when I mediate at home, I recite in my mind, and I say to myself, “I must make progress every day and meditate every day.” But during my meditation… I meditate for five hours every day, sometimes for two and a half hours, but rarely. However, I seem to have difficulty, too. I can hear the inner [Heavenly] Sounds, including the subtle ones from above. But whenever I meditate, my head… When I get anxious, there’s pressure in my head. My wisdom eye always makes me anxious. I wonder why my wisdom eye is not straight. I just can’t find my wisdom eye. The more anxious I am, the more I… I think I’m finished. It’s hopeless… Why can’t I find it? I get especially anxious. Sometimes, I open a book and try reading.) Don’t be anxious.

(I read the book, and then go back to meditate, but it still doesn’t work. The pressure is too much, so I said… I said that when I see Master, I should ask Master to enlighten me or give me a boost, because I’m especially ignorant. Now, I still feel the pressure, just holding it down… Maybe I should let go of it for a while just to air it out. Sometimes… All of my family members are initiates now. We meditate together sometimes, including my husband and me. Occasionally, the two of us make a retreat for three days without seeing anybody. But it still doesn’t work.) Take your time, OK? Take it easy.

(Sometimes my husband… He has made great progress, but sometimes he also says, “I can’t do it either. I can’t do it now.” The reason I came to the retreat this time… I went from my home. I’m a so-called public relations director. Anyway, I came here. My husband said, “When seeing Master, say hallo for me.” I want my practice to be stable. My goal is to make progress every day. That’s why I’m asking Master.) I heard it. Can I answer you now? (OK, OK. Please, Master.) Don’t give yourself pressure. Your problem is that you give yourself too much pressure. Relax when meditating. It will find you. It’s the wisdom eye; it can see you.

Just close your eyes like this, and then look ahead from here. So simple. If you see anything, look at it. If you don’t see anything, you still sit there. Don’t pressure yourself. Don’t get anxious. It’s stressful when you are anxious. Your soul wants to go out, but when it comes here, it gets squeezed. That’s where the pressure is hiding. That’s why you feel that way. In the future, don’t worry about the pressure. Don’t look for your wisdom eye. Just remember to focus here. OK? Remember it. As if… (OK. Thank You, Master.) You feel over there, and then from here. It’s as if there’s a wisdom eye looking out, just like how you’re looking at me with your two eyes. There’s an eye there. You close your eyes and use it. Just look out like this. Sometimes, you’ll see a little bit of (inner Heavenly) Light; then it’ll explode to become very big for your soul to go out. Sometimes you can’t see it, or you see stars and the Moon. Just relax, OK? Like the way you are looking at me now, but look through the wisdom eye. Don’t be stressed. (Thank You, Master.)

Next one. (Hallo, Master. I’m so happy to see You this time. I had a dream one night. I said that as long as we have sincerity and faith, we’ll be able to see Master. Right away, it was very dark. Then it stopped, becoming especially dark. I recited the Five Holy Names. Continuously, I recited the Five Holy Names. Suddenly, there was sunlight. I thought, “I must find my sister. No matter what, we must see Master.” Finally, my wish is fulfilled. Over the years, Master has taken care of my family so much. When my husband passed away, his face stayed rosy and supple for three days. People were surprised. I said, “You don’t practice spiritually, so you don’t understand.” I didn’t explain to them too much. During these years, Master helped my body… I’ve never taken medicine and never caught a cold. In the past few years since initiation, my family has been doing very well. My children and their wives have been good to me. It’s all because of Master’s Care and Love. Every day, since a long time ago, I have been looking forward to seeing Master. My report to Master: Thank You, Master. From now on, I will practice spiritually very well to repay Master. That’s it.) OK. (Thank You, Master)

OK. How many more have questions? Raise your hands to show me. Behind there. Only two? One, two, three. OK. You three ask quickly. You, too? (Four, five.) Four, five. How many? Raise your hands and speak louder. Oh, also, some from here? One, two three, four. Can you be quicker? Otherwise, let’s change it to tomorrow or some other day. OK? Are you still here tomorrow? These people? (Still here.) OK. Then, let’s do it tomorrow. You go eat first, or else it will be too dark later. You won’t be able to see the food, or maybe it will be gone. Go and eat; you’re hungry. Later, it will be too cold at night. If I have time tomorrow, I’ll arrange for it. (OK.) Don’t wait there. When it’s time, I’ll arrange it. (OK.) I’m staying a few days longer just for you. (Thank You, Master.) Have the meal. Thank you. (Thank You, Master.)
