Find a Master, a real Master, please. Become vegan. Get away from all toxic things that hurt your body, mind, and soul. That’s all you need to do. You don’t have to follow me. You don’t have to come to me. Find a Master. Make sure that he is good, and she is powerful, that she/he is connected to the Universal Power. That he/she can help you in their capacity. You must pray hard with all your heart, all your soul so that GOD will lead you there to the Master of your affinity. I don’t really expect that you believe me at all. Please, just pray to GOD, pray to the Buddhas, pray to Lord Jesus Christ, pray to the great Masters of ancient times, especially Those Who just left the Earth not long ago. Their energy is still lingering on this planet. You pray to Them, They will help you.
I told you, one of my disciples prayed to Paramhansa Yogananda, and the Master told him to go find me. You see that? And many others, other disciples, they were so desperate to go Home, to go to their true Home. They prayed to other Masters or past Buddhas, and even misunderstood the guidance. So until the last time, when the Master said, “Go to the sea” – because my name is Pure Sea. So the Master said, “Go to the Pure Sea.” So that person even jumped into the sea. He thought he had to go to the sea, jump in the sea to die, to meet the Buddha. Luckily, he did not die. He was rescued. And then finally he found me.
There are many stories like that during our gatherings, between me and my so-called disciples, GOD’s disciples. I don’t remember in which lecture and what day such stories have been told. Maybe some of my excellent, talented, devoted team members would be able to find, and maybe they can include some here for you.
There was an old gentleman from Taiwan (Formosa). He is initiated for 18 years. That must be the first one. Oh, it’s you, right? Actually, he is a very important guy in another group – you know, the I-Kuan Tao? Yes. He followed I-Kuan Tao, 50 years. He also practiced another Taoist [way], for 24 years. And then he was with me 18 years, finally. The last path of his life, “Ching Hai-ism.”
(Eighteen years ago, Lao Tzu told me to jump into the sea. It’s Lao Tzu, eighteen years ago.) Understand. (He told me to jump into the sea.) I see. (I had attained the Tao so my body was no longer useful. I went to the Jinsha Bay in Taipei and jumped into the sea. When I jumped off, I hit a rock here and bled severely. So I went home. Three days later, Lao Tzu told me, “You won’t die jumping here. Go jump into the Tamsui River, the clean water.” I went there and jumped, but still didn’t die.) Didn’t you understand? (Then I came back. Seven days later, Lao Tzu told me, “Just go up there to cleanse yourself, and it would be fine.” After a year or so, I heard about our Master Ching Hai. So, it meant jumping into the Ching Hai Sea, not jumping into the sea! [“Hai” means “sea” in Chinese.])
[…] And after that, he still didn’t understand what Lao Tzu told him to do. And Lao Tzu appeared to him again, and told him that he has to prepare some photo of himself – photograph And he still didn’t know. He prepared photos and waited. You know, those passport photos for initiation. He still didn’t know what’s going on. And one year later after he knew me and my name “Ching Hai,” then he realized, “Oh, this is the Pure Water Ocean.” And then he also knew what the photo is for, and he got initiated.
(I was trying to convert the sister back to I-Kuan Tao. It was me who introduced her to I-Kuan Tao. But before I came to Hsihu, the Celestial being or deity in Taoism told me, “You can practice the Quan Yin Method.”) He was so candid? (Yes. He said that I could practice the Quan Yin Method. So before I came, before I received initiation, I asked Master Ji Gong.) (She asked Master Ji Gong before coming to You.) What did He say? (He did not say anything. The next day, He called my name. I had practiced I-Kuan Tao for three years, working very hard. Then Master Ji Gong called my name three times. “A-cai, A-cai….”) So her name is A-cai. (Yes, my name is A-cai. I knelt down and kowtowed three times. Then He said, “You are ready for Buddhahood.” When I heard that, I cried.)
(She kowtowed to Master Ji Gong three times. Then Master Ji Gong said to her, “You are ready for Buddhahood.” Then she cried.) Ah! (Yes.) Why did Master Ji Gong cry? You are going to be a Buddha, so why did He cry? (It’s she who cried.) Oh, you cried? (Yes, I cried.) Ah! This means that you could practice the Quan Yin Method? (Yes. Only the Quan Yin Method can make us Buddhas.) How did you know? (Because…) Did you ask Him whether or not you could practice the Quan Yin Method? (I asked Him whether I could get initiation from You, and He kept silent.) That’s right. That was His answer. (Yes, but I didn’t understand until He told me to go ahead and be a Buddha. Then I cried.)
I had no karma really before I started officially this business. Many people looked at my hand looked at my face, and said, “Oh, how come You have no karma?” I said, “What for do I need karma?” It was just a joke, but many people were very surprised that I had no karma. At that time, when I was in India, a lot of people could see things. They were seers, clairvoyants, avatars and all that, the monks, and the people who practiced Quan Yin Method, also. Some of them could see very well. So, some of them saw that I was Master Sawan Singh [Ji] last life, so they came and prostrated to me right in front of everybody, when I was just a little chela (disciple), humbly sitting on the floor reading a discarded newspaper, for example. Like that, see? So, I couldn’t always avoid being known at that time.
Sometimes other Masters, ascended Masters, will recommend you a living Master, like in one of my monks’ case. He was desperate. He was living the life of a student, a normal worker, single, and didn’t have parents or relatives or friends around, just went out for any party, with anybody, drank and smoked, and this kind of atmosphere and situation – for getting girls and got sick and got them pregnant and had to be responsible, or had to decide to have an abortion, stuff like that. So he was kind of desperate and really prayed to Master Paramhansa Yogananda. He prayed so desperately, so sincerely. So, Master Yogananda told him to go and find Supreme Master Ching Hai. That is the story he told me after initiation. But he didn’t tell me right away after initiation. It took him many decades until he had a chance to talk to me personally. And he told me this story.
“I became a disciple of Cao Đài-ism in 1975. I have learned that during a spiritism session, the Cao Đài Saint Đông Phương Chưởng Quản visited and told us about the presence of a Living Master, though few are aware of Him.”
The following is an excerpt from this respected Saint’s teaching during a spiritism session in Thánh Tịnh Nguyệt Thanh Quang temple: “In the outside world and the inner realm, Contemplating on the inner Heavenly Sound, one can escape the suffering sea.”
“The Respected Master [Đông Phương Chưởng Quản] confirmed that THE GUIDE WHO IS HOLDING THE QUÁN ÂM (QUAN YIN), DHARMA LINEAGE IN THIS PERIOD IS SUPREME MASTER CHING HAI, and that fellow practitioners may ‘choose to practice as before’ or ‘if situation and affinity allows’ practice with Her. The Tao is always natural, never forced upon anyone.”
“GOD also said that if any soul misses the opportunity [for advancement] this time, they will have to wait seven billion years before they can come back as human for this chance again. Therefore, everyone please try to find the Quan Yin Method, the method for liberation that Supreme Master Ching Hai is teaching. The Saint Đông Phương Chưởng Quản pointed out clearly that only Supreme Master Ching Hai is holding this Dharma lineage.”
“I am a Catholic living in Daegu, Korea. I have not yet been initiated. At the beginning of August, I went to an old temple in the mountains for a one month retreat. In the mountains, I received Master’s book. Before I read it, I prayed to GOD, ‘Lord, if this book contains the Truth, please let me accept it.’ I also prayed to You, ‘This is Your book. If it contains the Truth I have been seeking for so long, please help me.’ Then I turned to the first page of the book. Immediately, I had a strong response as if my head was being struck by thunder or electricity. Tears fell automatically as I was reading the book.
While meditating, I could finally see Jesus Christ – He handed me to You. You were wearing a white dress and a white hat. Doubts arose within me and I immediately recited aloud Lord Jesus Christ’s Name and also Your Name. Even after reciting more than ten times, both of You did not disappear. You looked at Lord Jesus Christ and said, ‘Look! Your disciple has a lot of doubts.’ Lord Jesus heard this and started to laugh. Then You looked at me and said, ‘From today onwards, I will teach you.’ ”
Etc…
Anyway, I have other physical things to do now. No, my Supreme Master Television work. And I’m so glad to have been able to gather the first talk, even though it’s not as much as I want. That’s all I remember. And then I will ask my people to present it to you.
May GOD bless us all, love us all, forgive us all, and enlighten us all. Thank You, my LORD. Thank You forever, my LORD. May You also be happy receiving Your children and seeing Your children on the way Home, so You don’t feel too much suffering. I love You, my LORD. All my GOD’s disciples love You. And many, many other schools’ disciples love You. We serve You in our humble capacity. In the physical world, it’s not easy, even for me. So please, always love us, help us, bless us, uplift us. Amen.
