Sometimes, I come up to the stage but don’t know what to say so that you can understand that extremely vast wisdom. We call it Buddha, Bodhisattva or Heaven, or God, and that is inside you. You can call on it to work for you anytime. You just have to know the way. And I will show you the way at the time of initiation. You’ll be shown not by words, but in the invisible way.
Humans have such a great wisdom, a very strong will that nobody, no deities, no ghosts, no demons can penetrate. Unless we don’t recognize our greatness and let it become weak. We believe in superstitious things. We think that the demons are better than us, then they can possess us. Because we allow them to do that, we say that they are better than us, we’re OK. But if we don’t allow them and say, “I do not accept that.” Just say in your mind, “I don’t accept that. I am a noble person. I have Buddha Nature.”
Buddha Nature is the noblest in this universe, no demon can possess you. Even Buddha can’t possess you, let alone a demon. So, if you are suffering, or possessed by a demon, having non-sensical thoughts, being depressed, all of that is due to your own making. Nobody else did it. So don’t sit there and complain that God is unjust, the Buddha is not compassionate. It’s you who are unjust to yourself, not compassionate with yourself, because you don’t understand who you really are. So, I invite you to come to understand who you are, if you want. Just replace a few pieces of meat in the Phở with a few pieces of tofu, it’s not so difficult.
Why eating the meat, bones and blood of other beings, and then later having to pay a debt with our own body and blood? This everyone knows – repaying favors and seeking revenge. We don’t want anyone to peel our skin and cut our flesh, then why do we do that to other beings? And we know that they are suffering, not that we don’t know. For example, if you don’t know that the animal-people are suffering, then it maybe OK. But you know! Do you? (Yes, we do. Yes.) Yeah. This side knows, but the other side doesn’t? Don’t you know? (Yes, we do.)
Later on, after initiation, you meditate every day, then your soul will calm down. So, forget all the wrong conceptions, all the worldly lessons, then you will discover that you can do incredible things. Don’t think that I save you or anything. You are saving yourself. For example, you have an accident or encounter some problem, and you say, “Master, please help me!” and then you will be saved? You think that I’ll run over there to help you? You save yourself! You wake up your infinite wisdom. But because I have the connection with your infinite wisdom, you look at me, pray to me, it ignites your wisdom right away. Because you are in this physical world, if you don’t have a physical bridge, a physical body that connects the infinite wisdom with this physical world through this physical bridge, you can’t have it. So, you need a physical person who is called the Living Buddha.
Not that I can do all of these things by myself, do you understand? All of us work together, because we are all one. So when you are calling Master, you actually wake up your own wisdom, your own Buddha to work for you. Not that you call the hands and feet, or call out your conceptions that you learned from this world to work for you. So, it is very effective. It is so incredible and miraculous because this wisdom is incredible, very miraculous. For example, if I stand on one leg, or stand on my head for thousands, millions, billions and billions and billions of lifetimes, to praise this wisdom, I still wouldn’t have enough words [to praise]! You should understand this.
How to say disappoint, frustration in Aulacese (Vietnamese)? (Bất mãn.) Disappointed? Ah, frustration. Right. I am frustrated when I have to explain your wisdom. I can never explain it enough. Sometimes, I come up to the stage but don’t know what to say so that you can understand that extremely vast wisdom. We call it Buddha, Bodhisattva or Heaven, or God, and that is inside you. You can call on it to work for you anytime. You just have to know the way. And I will show you the way at the time of initiation. You’ll be shown not by words, but in the invisible way. Because our wisdom is not physical, so we don’t use words or physical actions to teach, but have to use this wisdom to teach that wisdom.
So, when I give you initiation, I don’t talk, I don’t say anything. We sit there, in silence. Or if I sit here, I am also quiet, or if I sit at home, I wouldn’t say anything to you. I can sit quietly or not, but you have to sit quietly. I don’t say anything to you. Even if I talk or I don’t talk, you still get initiated. But for example, if I talk and you sit there listening, then your ears are listening, so you can’t concentrate on receiving initiation. So, during the time of initiation, I don’t talk. That’s it.
OK! I talked too much already. Many hours already. So, I am not beating around the bush anymore. If you think this life is so hard, and this world is hell, then turn it into Heaven. It’s very fast. If you think that you can’t change the whole world into Paradise, at least you can change the world around you, your home, the world which is related to you, to become Paradise, so that you will suffer less. So that you know that human life is very precious. You’re not born just to go to school, to work all day long, and then raise your children, carry your children, your wife, your husband, like those who carry a yoke! Then, you will die with an exhausted body, a ruined spirit. It is not the human being in its true sense.
The human being in its true sense has to be like a living Buddha. All of you are living Buddhas. How come you don’t know? You and I are no different. What I can do, you can do the same, if you follow my Method of spiritual practice. It is like science, and whoever studies it can graduate. If you don’t graduate with an excellent grade, then with an average grade. And if not with an average grade, then with a low grade, or at least with a passing grade. It’s still better than those who don’t learn. Even if you don’t pass with an average grade, you’re still more knowledgeable than those who don’t learn. Do you understand? (Yes.)
All right, I invite you to learn, beg you to learn. In the old days, to seek the Truth, you had to cross rivers and oceans. You had to beg your teacher, and toil very hard for him for three, four years, before he would give you initiation. Sometimes, he had to see whether you were worthy to get initiated or not. But now, I beg you instead. I beg you, do you want to study? Please study it, so that your life will have less suffering; don’t talk about becoming a Buddha yet.
Now, if you have any questions, you can write to me. Any disappointment, you can also write. But you should write properly and seriously, to be an Aulacese (Vietnamese) gentleman, or a human being. But don’t write non-sensical things. On Sunday, people don’t have time to come here and listen to your nonsense. Thousands of people don’t come here to hear you showing-off or your nonsense, which is not related to the Dharma or spiritual practice. Do you understand? (Yes.)
Do you have any questions yet? (Yes, we do, Master.) Yes. (If you have any questions, please write on this green sheet and give it to the working team.) The American can write in English. I understand some English. (If there are questions in English, then we will read first in English, after that we will translate to Aulacese (Vietnamese), and ask Master.)
(Dear Master, at what age or what lead You to be believe that You were the chosen one?) I have always been the chosen one since many ages. OK. I don’t remember at which age I was chosen. Every one of us is also chosen if you know who you are. We are chosen to be here to bless this world, to glorify God, but we have forgotten. So only I remember, that’s all. OK. If you have forgotten, you can remember again through the Quan Yin Method.
(The question is, at what age, or why do You believe that You are the chosen one? Master replied “I was chosen.” Master thinks that She was chosen since time immemorial. But in fact, all of us here have been chosen by God. I practice the Quan Yin Method; I know and only I know that I am the chosen one.) Talk nonsense! Let me translate for you. Sorry! You translated incorrectly, you didn’t talk nonsense. I’m a straightforward person, talking without… What it’s called, not… colorful; sometimes people got angry. So now, I have to go study again. Spoke slightly incorrectly. OK! Sorry! Let me translate it, clarify it.
It’s like this! The question is like this. The moment I realized that I was a Living Buddha, basically, what it meant, was the chosen one, the so-called transmitter of God’s message to Earth, which means a Living Buddha, to make it easier to understand. At what age? I knew that I was the chosen one to be a Living Buddha. I said, “I was chosen since time immemorial. It was a long time ago, and I forgot when it was.” So now, I added, “All the people here are also the chosen ones.” God has chosen us to descend on Earth to bless this world, to elevate this world, to turn it into a great planet, splendid like every other planet in the universe that we call Heaven or Buddha Land. However, because it was a long time ago, you have forgotten, only I remember it. So now, if you want to remember that duty, your holy responsibility, then you follow the Quan Yin Method and you will remember it again. Is it clear? (Wonderful!) In the past, I earned a lot of money from doing translations, and now I do the translation all for free.
(Dear Master! On February 17, 1991, I cut open my stomach to fight for the refugees from being sent back to Âu Lạc [Vietnam]. My life was saved; I would like to get an audience with You.) Where? Not dead from suicide? Where? Come on up here, desert hero. This guy? You’re not from Pula Bidong? You’re not the refugee from Pula Bidong who committed suicide? (No, Master. I cut….) And what date is this one? (On the 2nd of Western calendar.) Really? And you’re not dead? (Yes! Luckily, I did not die.) That’s good, but don’t do that again. (Yes, thank You Master!) Tell me if there is a problem, and we’ll slowly solve it, because you may die from cutting your stomach open. Come here!
(Dear Master, I’m) You sit there (Catholic, if I practice the Quan Yin Method, does it mean that I betray my religion?) No! To practice the Quan Yin Method is to follow the Method Jesus Christ practiced in the past. Because in the Bible, there are many pages that mentioned about (inner Heavenly) “Sound” and (inner Heavenly) “Light.” For example, on the first page, the Bible says, “Since the beginning of creation, there was this holy Word,” that is “The Word.” I say it in English.
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” We practice this “Word,” this holy “Word,” which is “The Word,” which is God. So, if we are in contact with this holy Word, then we are in contact with God. So, how can it be called a betrayal of your religion! And in other pages of the Bible, it says that… For example, Moses. It says in the Bible, when Moses heard the Word of God, it sounded like thunder, you see? That is the (inner Heavenly) Sound, we can hear after we get Initiation. It’s one of the (inner Heavenly) Sounds, but not the only one. In other Bible passages it says that “The voice of God is like the sound of great bodies of water.” The sound of many waters. The sound of big currents, the Sound of the waves crashing on the shore, is basically what it is. The “Phổ Môn” sutra says the same. Practice the Quan Yin Method, then you can hear the sound of ocean waves.
