The Venerated enlightened Master Ce Acatl Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl was born in the 10th century. Known as both a powerful king and a holy Saint who was in communion with the Divine. Many loved Him and followed Him to become His disciples. We now present the heart-and eye-opening teachings of the Venerated Ce Acatl Topiltzin Quetzalcoatl, excerpted from Chapters 13 to 15 of the Gospel of the Toltecs. "Do not deceive yourselves. The dead ones do not die; they wake up. We who live here are not really living; we are dreaming. To die is to become a god, a sun, a moon, a star, the wind, the sea, the land. Understand this: The dead ones wake up from this life’s dream. Be they wise men, nobles, or slaves, they all go to the Land of Mystery."

We present an amazing, eye-opening children’s books series “George.” Penned by Stephen William Hawking and Lucy Hawking. Renowned British physicist, cosmologist, and author Professor Stephen Hawking is widely regarded as one of the most brilliant theoretical physicists since Albert Einstein.

With the book’ positive messages, we see how science can be used for the good of the environment and Earth’s inhabitants, as well as for providing answers to current concerns.

Since 2014, hunting on public land in Botswana has been completely banned. And Botswana won 2nd place at the 2017 United Nations Public Service Awards for its effective waste management system started in 2010.

In 2018, Brunei joined the total elimination of nuclear weapons by signing the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW). With the majority of our population following the religion of Islam, charity has always been a very important practice from our monarch toward the common people of Brunei, as well as from Brunei toward other countries.

“When I went through the Three Worlds, then I realized Your existence is really necessary. If we didn’t have You: no Master, no key, no God’s power, human beings would truly suffer tremendously, Master. They could not pass through the Three World. So at that time, I realized that You’re very, very, very important to humanity, to human beings. I know that Your presence, whether it is in the manifestation body, Dharma body, or Your presence right now is extremely important to us in the spiritual process and learning process, both inside and outside.” “I saw beings from above looking down and having so much sympathy and sorrow for You. Your sacrifice is indescribable. Not these words, it’s also beyond description. Therefore we don’t really appreciate the Quan Yin Method and are not really grateful to our Master until we enter there or until we see how strenuously and seriously Master has tried to bring the power down here from above, to help this planet.”

You may possess empires, vast estates, authority over others, and the enjoyment of myriads of pleasures; you may have delightful and beautiful gardens, and issue unquestioned commands; you may have enjoyments and entertainments of all sorts and kinds, and continue to enjoy exciting pleasures – and yet, if you do not come to remember the Supreme Lord God, you shall be reincarnated as a snake. You may possess vast riches, maintain virtuous conduct, have a spotless reputation and observe religious customs; you may have the loving affections of mother, father, children, siblings and friends; you may have armies well-equipped with weapons, and all may salute you with respect; but still, if you do not come to remember the Supreme Lord God, then you shall be taken and consigned to hell! You may have a body free of disease and deformity, and have no worries or grief at all; you may be unmindful of death, and night and day revel in pleasures; you may take everything as your own, and have no fear in your mind at all; but still, if you do not come to remember the Supreme Lord God, you shall fall under the power of the Messenger of Death.

This performance prepared by Pyongyang Folk Arts group is a magical dance in which the colors of clothes change, representing each season of spring, summer, autumn, and winter in Korea. Up next is the "Janggu Dance" and "Samulnori" performed by Korean House Art group. "Magical, both troupes, magical dance." "This Artist Day was established and I performed in this honorable event. …I got more power thinking that my life was correct, not wrong. I will work diligently as I was encouraged to continue more. I heard Supreme Master Ching Hai asked to send a gift like this to performers of the day, so I was very grateful. I will use this gift money to advertise for the instruments of the North and the Artist Day more."

In today’s show, we’ll introduce you to the fun part of the event, with contributions from artists, both professional and amateur. Let’s first check out the Costume Contest. The event organizer also arranged programs performed by professional artists who are waiting to treat us. Other than the stage program, there was also a table exhibition which included 40 exhibitors at the 2019 Veggie Pride Parade. About two thirds of them are grassroots organizations. It is very encouraging to find new grassroots organizations sprouting up every year. Indeed, the vegan landscape has changed so much compared to what it was a decade ago, thanks to all the heroes that we saw in the show and many others who have adopted a vegan lifestyle that benefits all.

"The more I see You, the more I love You." I won’t die yet. But it has to be that way. Your body has to be reduced to rubble in order to save all sentient beings. It’s not easy. Not just the physical body is reduced to rubble, no, the spiritual body as well. Your spiritual body has to be sacrificed also, in order to change the (bad) karma of countless beings, countless, not just this Earth only. No. You went through but you have to come back. Running back and forth. You cannot go through and leave them behind. (You’re suffered a lot.) If one person suffers for hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands other people, million, billions of other people to be happy, then it’s well worth it. It’s worth it. Otherwise, what for do we exist in the universe, if we cannot help others?

The peaceful and loving path of Sikhism has appealed to many devotees around the world. We present today an excerpt of the magnanimous teachings of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji from the Holy Sri Guru Granth Sahib, pages 69-72. "Those who take the Truth as their food and the Truth as their clothing, have their home in the True One. They constantly praise the True One, and in the True Word of the Shabad (inner Heavenly Sound) they have their dwelling. They recognize the Lord, the Supreme Soul in all, and through the Guru’s Teachings they dwell in the home of their own inner self." "The True Guru teaches the Word of the Shabad; without the True One, there is no other at all. Those who are linked by the True One are linked to Truth."

On today’s show, we’ll learn about two of Mr. Podolsky’s new documentary film projects, which address other critical wildlife issues. The first examines the plummeting population of bats in North America, and the second concerns the decline of the Helmeted Hornbill bird in Borneo. Mr. Matthew Podolsky believes that films are highly effective tools for informing people about various issues, as they can quickly reach large audiences and also have a powerful impact. Having witnessed the threat of extinction for many birds and other animals, Mr. Podolsky is deeply concerned about the future of our planet. If we wish to protect and save the Earth as we know it, Mr. Podolsky believes we need to make a global effort. We need 100%.

Dr. Noel Abdayem is a dentist in Sweden. When he was still a dental student, he went to Jamaica to work as a volunteer to treat cavities in children. He found that many kids did not have toothbrushes. Accordingly, Dr. Abdayem founded The Humble Company, initiating the production of bamboo toothbrushes that were designed and developed by professional dentists. The Toothbrush handles are made from 100% biodegradable, sustainably-grown bamboo. In addition to toothbrushes, the Humble Company also produces an all-vegan lineup of products. Touched by his volunteer experience in Jamaica, Dr. Abdayem longed to further help the disadvantaged children of the world, particularly in realm of improving their oral health. Initially, he donated toothbrushes to various charity organizations working with kids. Subsequently, he met Dr. Darren Weiss. Out of a common vision, they established the Humble Smile Foundation.

“So when I prayed at the Tree of Praying, I then knew that later beings on Earth will have peace and joy on Earth. And I saw human beings on Earth starting to appreciate God, and knowing Who is called Tim Qo Tu. They know Your name as Tim Qo Tu. They have a grateful heart, and our Earth at that time has…” Changed, future. That is the future. Sometimes if our mind is calm and quiet, then the Master’s power can take us there easier. When the mind is not very tranquil, then it is pulled this way, that way. She pulls us up and we cannot go up. We don’t want to ascend. Youth Source sometimes already exists in the Fourth Level, already exists at the Fifth Level, and the Sixth Level as well. But the powers are different. I also said sometimes it is the same place, but goes deeper.

In Chapter 6 of her book "The Reappearance of the Christ," written through inner collaboration with her Master Djwal Khul, the British American esoteric writer and teacher Alice Bailey indicated that Christ's reappearance would mark a major turning point in the evolution of human consciousness. From materialism, we would shift more to spirituality in the 20th century. A new global religion would emerge, different from traditional religious forms. "By the emphasizing of the essential doctrines and in their union will the fullness of truth be revealed. This, the new world religion will do and its implementation will proceed apace, after the reappearance of the Christ." Throughout all Her lectures, Supreme Master Ching Hai has been emphasizing and uniting the essential truths shared by all religions. Could She be the prophesied bringer of the so-called new world religion?

While Dazu Huike continued to give discourses everywhere, Sengcan followed His Master’s instructions and left the city. He headed south, hiding in the Wan Gong Mountains of Shuzhou. Afterwards, Dazu Huike returned to the city of Ye. Many of those who had affinity with Him came to take refuge in His teachings and became His disciples. A number of the rich and affluent in the city were very jealous and fearful of the Venerated Patriarh. Dazu Huike had to change His course of action to maintain His safety. He disguised Himself and acted like a madman, travelling to wherever the people gathered in order to expound the Dharma. Occasionally, He would even stay overnight in butcher shops to try to persuade the people to stop killing, and every now and then He would spend the night in the wild. At the age of 107, the Venerated Dazu Huike selflessly passed away to Nirvana. His immense sacrifice and steadfast conviction in spreading the Dharma continues to inspire and touch the hearts of truth seekers to this day.

What is important is that all of you guys, you have to keep being vegan, and send all this message quietly also, as well as loudly. If you are vegan, your energy it keeps sending out the message also. Not just doing it physically, but quietly, invisibly. It also helps. Each of you is like a radio or a television, sending out waves of vegan. “I would like to share some experiences…The whole meditation hall, everyone had a spiritual tree shining directly on their body, surrounding them. When I saw that, I thought Master already gave each disciple a direct connection to the spiritual tree, direct connection to Heaven.” The spiritual tree is very bright. But their bad karma absorbs all of it. So, that’s why it’s thin. The more we practice, the less the spiritual tree is absorbed. Then it will get fatter and fatter.
