On Sunday, November 3, 2019, our Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai gave a discourse to a few of our fellow Quan Yin practitioners at the New Land Ashram in Taiwan, also known as Formosa, via a conference. Master shared some heartrending news about Her courageous, special Dogs, who do anything to protect Her. Master explained how Her beloved Good Love revealed many different things to Her and how we can learn a lot from the animals. “And if we keep killing them, then we’re killing our own blessings, like shooting your own foot. Many people don’t understand that.”
