“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”
In our last episode, we looked at Trạng Trình Nguyễn Bỉnh Khiêm’s prophetic poem from “Sấm Trạng Trình” and delved into the meaning of it. Today we continue to explore the hidden meanings within this precious poetry.
“The King is still hoeing the moon, plowing the cloud The weather is favorable, and people are contented Rice harvest is plentiful The King lives on the mountain, where there are five-colored clouds The main palace is surrounded by clouds. Indeed, the Son of God is here now to rule.”
Looking closely at Trạng Trình’s verses, when we combine the first word in each line, we get this phrase: Vua King Phong Appointed Vua King Chính Main Thực True/Real The message being given here seems to be the True King who is Appointed as King.
The “True King who is Appointed as King” or “the Son of God” in Trạng Trình’s poem is an Enlightened Saint who is appointed by Heaven to carry out the mission to guide sentient beings back to the Kingdom of God.
Furthermore, writings in Cao Đài scriptures point towards Supreme Master Ching Hai (vegan), as the Spiritual Guide of our times. Cao Đài-ism is the third-largest religion in Âu Lạc (Vietnam) and was founded almost a century ago. The term “Cao Đài” means “Supreme Palace,” referring to the place where God reigns over the Universe. It was also the name that God used to impart Hiers Divine instructions in the creation of Cao Đài. Spiritism is a central part of Cao Đài-ism, a syncretic religion that incorporates Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, and other religions. Cao Đài practitioners often consult with their Guides during “spiritism sessions” and faithfully record and study the teachings or instructions received.
Within the Cao Đài Divine Instructions called “Saintly Teachings, Saintly Tranquility,” the transmitted messages reveal the name of the Spiritual Guide, or the Living Master of our current period. It also reveals Her lineage of meditation method, and this information has largely been shared only among the practitioners. This particular information was received from Saint Đông Phương Chưởng Quản and compiled by Thánh Thất Thánh Tịnh Cao Đài.
Following the advice of these Divine Instructions, some of the Cao Đài practitioners decided to search for the Spiritual Guide who is named, and to learn the Quan Yin Dharma (a meditation method on the inner Heavenly Light and Sound) directly from the Living Master. One individual shared his experience with us as he realized the meaning within the “Saintly Teachings, Saintly Tranquility” writings of Cao Đài scripture.
“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 kalpas 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.”
Thus we can see that not only do the Divine messages from Saint Đông Phương Chưởng Quản reveal the name of the True Living Master, the messages also clearly name the meditation method that She teaches.
Our Most Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai (vegan) was imparted the Quan Yin Method of meditation by a True Living Master in the Himalayan Mountains. Master graciously shared Her personal spiritual journey years ago on several occasions.
“(And how did You come across this revelation?) Oh, I have been searching all my life, and then until I went to the Himalayas and met the Master who gave me this remembering... reminding. Just like I would remind people after I have mastered the art of...how you say... traveling to Heaven.”
“The reason why I choose the Quan Yin Method, because that’s the way that’s directly to God. I have tried many, many other ways before, and it did not work well for me. God told me, ‘Go there, there, and find that Teacher and He will impart to you the Quan Yin, and it should be, then you can know Me better,’ in a dream. So it’s not my choice, it’s God’s Direction.”
After attaining complete enlightenment through practicing this Method, Supreme Master Ching Hai was sought out by spiritual seekers around the world who long for soul liberation and higher wisdom. At their request, Master started to teach the Quan Yin Method to those who are willing to practice according to Her guidelines. This process is called initiation. In some of Her public lectures, Master explained what the Quan Yin Method is.
“All religions are similar, rooted from the same beginning, from the (inner Heavenly) Light and the Sound. And later I will read some of that, and then you know the Buddha mentioned the (inner Heavenly) Sound. He said, ‘ The Sound Hearers of such-and-such-Levels,’ etc. I’ll read it to you later. And (in) many other sutras, Buddha always mentioned about the Sound. Like, all the Bodhisattvas rely on the Sound Stream to come down to this Earth to save sentient beings. And all the saved sentient beings rely on the Sound Stream to go to Heaven or Buddha’s Land.
But of course, as in our group, we practice the (inner Heavenly) Sound, the hearing of the Sound, the inner Sound, hearing with the inner ears, seeing with inner eyes.”
By practicing the Quan Yin Method imparted by our Most Beloved Supreme Master Ching Hai (vegan), our Association members (all vegans) have experienced their lives changing for the better, and that they themselves are renewed, transformed and uplifted into more noble versions of themselves. Many have spiritual experiences confirming that they are escaping the “suffering sea” in life, as prophesized in Cao Đài scripture. Let’s hear several experiences or inner visions that our Association members shared through Supreme Master Television heartlines and at international gatherings.
“Since I met You, I feel that my life has changed completely, in spiritual aspects as well as in my daily life. I have been in the US for two years, and You have saved my life twice. […] Then last March, I just had heart surgery, it was 3 months ago, and You also saved me.”
“A series of miracles have happened to me after the initiation. Dozens of illnesses inside me just disappeared. Especially the problem of ‘ignorance’ also disappeared, thanks to Master! The deeper I immerse myself in the teachings, the more peaceful I feel and the more my love expands.”
“I saw with my physical eyes that there were a lot of demons who surrounded me day and night, and I saw two demon kings who told me that they gave me three days before they would take me away. […] At 8 p.m. that evening, I recited the Five Holy Names continuously and meditated in my room. In my samadhi, I saw the Dharma bodies of the Five Holy Lords whose appearances were small like Master, wearing clothes like Master and having incredible, brilliant golden auras. These Five Lords were sitting around me, sending Light into my body. I sat in the middle. After I got out of meditation, and since then, the demon kings have disappeared forever!”
“Dear Most Benevolent Lord Tim Qo Tu, Before following You to practice spiritually, I was a fisherman working at sea. […] One time, in my meditation, I suddenly noticed red spots on my stomach, which were slowly enlarging, and I was amazed to see many creatures crawling out of them, such as cuttlefish-, octopus-, small fish-people, etc. It was very painful. Many of them did not want to come out, so I had to use my hand to pull each one of them out of my body. At that time, I felt pain beyond description! And when they were all out, I felt very relieved. I silently understood that: When I followed Master to practice the Quan Yin Method, Master took upon Herself my numerous past karmas and resolved my fixed karma, which I would have to pay for many lifetimes. You shortened these payments into one meditation session, so that my body became healthier and I could continue to practice to be elevated. And thanks to Master’s Blessing Power permeating my body during meditation, the beings which I have killed had forgiven me and came out of my body. I thank You so much for saving me from my ignorance in this world. […]”
“Initiation is the moment that the inner Cosmic power and spirit are directly linked to Master’s Compassion and Power. It is the moment of true birth. After that day there were daily changes in me. I understood all the things that had happened to me, and was aware that there was a chance for me to improve myself. Although sometimes I wanted to close my eyes to real situations, I still faced them squarely without running away. I did not have this strength in me before initiation.”
“Greetings, Respected and Beloved Master, Each time I look at You, Your Love washes over me continuously and soothes the pains and sorrows in my heart. Shedding tears and basking in Your Love, I regain my inner peace. The inner (Heavenly) Music Vibration lifts me higher and higher, and an indescribable bliss cleanses me.”
ETC…
How fortunate are those who recognize and practice spiritually with the True King of our time, Supreme Master Ching Hai (vegan), Who is the “Appointed King” by Heavens as foretold by Trạng Trình Nguyễn Bỉnh Khiêm and Saint Đông Phương Chưởng Quản of the Cao Đài faith. In our next episode, we will explore prophecies in Buddhist scriptures regarding the Dharma Ending time, the identity of Maitreya Buddha (vegan) and His grand sacred mission, and more.
