Spiritual Guidance -- A Living Spiritual Master
Spiritual guidance
is via a true Living Spiritual Master. A True Master will provide us
the spiritual guidance on our way
to the Truth. He /She will help to resolve the problems in our spiritual path and
practice, as well as to overcome the obstacles we meet in our daily
mundane life.
Throughout the
ages, mankind has been visited by these spiritual guides whose sole purpose
is the spiritual upliftment of humanity. Jesus Christ was one of
these visitors, as were Shakyamuni Buddha and Mohammed. These three
are well known to us, but there are many others whose names we do
not know; some taught publicly, and where known by a few, and others
remained anonymous. These spiritual guidance were called by different names,
at different times, in different countries. They have been referred
to as: Master, Avatar, Enlightened One, Savior, Messiah, Divine
Mother, Messenger, Guru, Living Saint, and the like. They came to
offer us what has been called: Enlightenment, Salvation, Realization,
Liberation, or Awakening. The words used may be different, but in
essence they all mean the same thing.
Visitors from
the same Divine Source, with the same spiritual greatness, moral
purity, and power to uplift humanity as the Holy Ones from the past
are here with us today, yet few know of their presence. One of them
is the Supreme Master Ching Hai.
Master Ching
Hai teaches the importance of the practice of meditation,
inner contemplation and prayer. She provides spiritual guidance to awaken the Divine Presence within us, while we lead normal
lives. She states: It is like this. We all know the Truth. It's
just that we forgot it. So, sometimes someone has to come and remind
us of the purpose of our life, why we must find the Truth, why we
must practice meditation, and why we must believe in God or Buddha,
or whoever we think is the Highest Power in the Universe. She asks
no one to follow Her. She simply offers Her own enlightenment as
an example, so that others may gain their own Ultimate Liberation.
