(That couple received Master’s book when we went to distribute books on Tết holiday. Then they shared it with their sister-in-law’s couple. But that guy, every time someone mentioned Buddha or God, he would criticize and say all sorts of terrible things, Master. He didn’t believe in anything. But after getting the book, he brought it to his sister-in-law and said, “Oh my God, this is a Living Buddha. Here, a Living Buddha.” His sister-in-law was shocked.

Was it the monk that Hòa mentioned? (Yes.) So then what? (He told a practitioner that he wanted to receive initiation. He’d been a monk for 30 years, so this practitioner accidentally asked, “Have you been vegan for three months?”) Have to ask. Some monks are Hinayana, and they still eat (animal-people) meat. Especially monks from Thailand, you have to ask. […]
