Convenient Method
Answered by Quan Yin messenger
(Originally in Chinese)
Q: Are there any conditions for those who practice the Convenient Method? Can children practice this Method as well?
A: Master blesses people with the Convenient Method for the sake of those who are longing for spiritual enhancement but cannot be fully vegetarian; if they are too old; or if their body or psychological condition is not appropriate for initiation.
The introduction of this Method will, on the one hand, let non-vegetarians slowly adapt to becoming complete vegetarians and, on the other hand, allow the elderly a chance to be enlightened although their body and mind cannot adapt totally. There are no special terms or conditions for the Convenient Method. However, without Master's permission, we should not teach this Method at random to children less than 16 years of age, insincere people, or people with mental incapacities, as it may not be safe for them.
