Five years ago, my mother got acquainted with a Quan Yin initiate sister, and so we had the opportunity to know about Master. However, whenever this fellow sister talked about Master, my father would feel very uneasy, and this accounted for the delay in us becoming familiar with Master's teachings. You may wonder how our family eventually became vegetarians and got initiated? Well, that was truly a fantastic miracle. Once, my mother, my younger brother and I all joined a tour to Europe. Several days before we went abroad, we visited this particular fellow sister. She worried that my father would feel bored being left alone at home, so she gave him some of Master's books and videotapes. When the three of us returned from our European trip and stepped into our house, we heard the enchanting sound of Master's Buddhist chanting. Immediately, father proposed that we should switch to a vegetarian diet, and explained his dramatic 180 degree change of attitude. While we were abroad, he suddenly felt interested in reading Master's book "Key Of Immediate Enlightenment". Unexpectedly, just after reading a few lines, tears rolled down his cheeks like a waterfall, as if he was shedding a lifetime of tears. He watched the videos all the whole night through without feeling tired. He told us, one moment he was crying and the next he was clapping in admiration. His rapture was like that of a child seeing his mother after many years of separation. Of course, our whole family got initiated later, without any problems! | After the initiation, Master continued to take immaculate care of us. Longing to see Master, we once booked four air-tickets to Hong Kong to see Her. As it was the first time we were to see Master, we bought a box of fruit candy as a gift for Her. When we arrived in Hong Kong, I carried the fruit candy to the Center. That evening, Master especially came to see the fellow initiates and to tell us stories. When Master walked around the place and came near me, I was such a coward that I didn't dare to present the gift to Her. Needless to say, I was so upset when I returned to the hotel. Fortunately, Master comforted me by reenacting the whole scene in a dream that night. This time, I bravely offered the fruit candy to Her, and She embraced and kissed me in return. Wow! The feeling was so sweet! When I got up the next morning, all my sorrow was gone. Glancing at the box of candy at my bedside, I couldn't help whisper in my heart: "I love You so much, Master!"¡¹ |

During the recent 5-day retreat, fellow initiates came from all over the world and gathered together to participate in this wonderful Quan Yin congregation. One day, Master delivered a lecture. While listening to Her gentle and soft voice, I felt intoxicated as if I was dreaming. Then an interesting thing occurred. When I was tired of sitting and leaned against the wall, I dozed off and unexpectedly had a dream. In my dream, Master wore a very light casual outfit and took us sight-seeing. The scene is still clear and deep in my mind, unforgettable. | After I woke up, Master was still in the venue giving the lecture. I could not help feeling admiration because it was like a dream within another dream. Master indeed has innumerable transformation bodies. While giving a lecture in the venue She also took me sight-seeing at the same time. What a really wonderful feeling it was! |
