World disasters remind us to search for our eternal inner Kingdom -- villagers reading the Supreme Master Ching Hai News magazines with great interest. <Taoyuan> With Master's love, we made a trip to Gaoyi Village in the rural township of Fuxing to visit the victims of typhoons Amber and Winnie. When the villagers learnt of our initiates' intentions, they volunteered to show us the damage. The severe typhoons had caused the floors and walls of many houses to crack. The victims indicated that they were planning to relocate their village so as to safeguard their lives and property.

Fellow initiates not only brought Master's love and concern in the form of material aid, but also in the form of spiritual nourishment -- Her sample booklets and News magazines, in hopes of fostering ties of affinity with them. The villagers had never heard of Master before. Fellow practitioners rejoiced at the honor of sharing the good news of a living Master with the small tribe in the deep mountains. Some villagers began to read the News magazines with great interest as soon as they received them. And those who didn't receive them came to ask for some.

The villagers demonstrated great appreciation of Master's love and concern. When fellow initiates prepared to leave, villagers shook their hands and expressed their thanks again and again. Fellow initiates expressed their hope that the village relocation plan would soon be accomplished and the villagers could lead a peaceful life ever after.
