international seminar we are originally pure jan 3, feb 7, feb 27, 2009france the truth behind a master's actions january 3, 2009france this is a story aboutthe son of rumi. rumi’s son who was askinghis father... you know rumi,the famous persian poet? now, his son asked him
a very, very, very importantquestion. when i read that, i thought,“i have to share it with you, quick.†it's very difficult to findgood stories. because some story is maybeunderstandable in persian language or in chinese, and when it's translated into english, it's not that funnyor it's not very comprehensible, or nothing very meaningful. probably for the western mind,it seems strange.
rumi’s son asked him,“how and why is the dervish hidden? is this done by superficial disguise? or, is there something within himselfwhich he conceals?†why should a dervish want tohide himself? a dervish in the old time, not by name,like somebody wears a robe and becomes a dervish;it’s different. what he meant isthe real enlightened master of old times, the true dervish.
just like a true buddhist,a true bodhisattva, and not just by name. so, why should a dervish,or an enlightened being, want to hide himself? because the master was alwaysin danger. in danger, perhaps yes,in the old time maybe even more so. too sensitive for the material world. bless the world silently. new idea. good.
can we bless the world noisily? no. protection. protection of himself? it’s easier to work when no one knows. yes. to test the disciples. to test the disciples? so that he only gets good qualitydisciples who really want to find him. good, yes.
not too bad, keep going, keep going. maybe he’s just too humble,not to really think he’s a teacher, unless someone really goes after himfor help. all right. when he talks about the truth,not too many people believe it. if you tell the truth,not many people believe it? then he doesn’t have to hide himself. if nobody believes thenhe can sound the trumpet. but jesus, when he talkedabout the truth,
people put him in trouble. yes, one of those things. it’s more or less like protection. maybe to test the disciple, maybe to protect himself, maybe he’s humble,he doesn’t want to show off. maybe he speaks the truthand nobody understands. now, let’s see what else is there. the master said –
the master means rumi,rumi answering his son – he said,“it might be done in any way. some could write love poems, and people think thatthey mean ordinary love.†it means the true dervishcould write some love poetry and then people would thinkit’s ordinary love anyway. “the dervish may also hidehis true position in the way, by adopting a calling.†the way, the path in the truth,or in his position in the universe,
in the way, in the tao. what does it mean “position�police officer or something? his being a master. his spiritual level. it’s so simple. police officer. who said “yes� who is the brave one? (yes.) you did? (yes.) because i thought it meant that he hides himself bytaking some profession.
yes.the position in the spiritual domain; the position in the spiritual domain; the way means the spiritual domain,the spiritual level. he’s hiding his position in the way -the “way†is written with a capital – means he’s hidden; he hides his own spiritual elevation. “by adopting a calling…†what does it mean “a calling� the profession.
like a profession ofwhatever the time was. that’s right, that’s right. there are writers, traders,businessmen. there are some traders,it must be the famous one. and still others followvarious different outer activities. that’s correct. so, he might be a police officer. remember rama was a king? who else was something else?
one was a cobbler. who was it? kabir. kabir was a cobbler? no, he was a weaver. a weaver. krishna. krishna? he was a cow herder.
he’s a cow boy! texas must be proud! who else was in a famous position? a carpenter. who was a carpenter? jesus. jesus was a carpenter.all the carpenters must be proud. buddha. buddha. what did he do?
he was a prince. he was a prince, but not by choice. anyway, he forsook his profession. marpa is a farmer, tibetan master. marpa is the master of milarepa.he's a farmer. master sawan singh was an engineer. sawan singh was an engineer. he built roads and bridgesand all that. so, rumi continued telling his sonbecause his son asked,
“why is the dervish hidden?why does he want to hide?†so the master said that“this may be done for the sake of defenseagainst the shallow.†“shallow†means someone whohas not much interest or inclination about spiritual practice, doesn’t understand much anywayand doesn’t care. “some purposely act in a mannerwhich society might disapprove,†even. like some master are very enlightened, but maybe he is actingnot very proper,
not the way people expected. therefore, the society might thinkthat he's nothing. the prophet has therefore said, "god has hidden the manof greatest knowledge." maybe the person had chosento do that himself or, in this case, the master said, maybe god has made himdo this and that, or god has created the situationso that the man of greatest knowledge – means the most enlightened person –would do this, do that,
just to fool the multitude,the shallow. “a device may be adoptedby the followers of the way to gain peace when they mightotherwise be hindered.†just some strategy they use, or some means they usedto hide themselves so they can have peace to practiceor to serve their purpose. otherwise, if they reallylooked like a master, looked like what the people –the multitude, the shallow even – expected them to be a master –what they look like, how they behave,
like in the book,the way most people imagine – then maybe any kind of peoplewould come and bother them too much that they have no time to truly servethe real purpose or to take care of the true followers. that's what it means. so, they will use some deviceor some ways or some strategies to make themselves not look like a very morally,good or knowledgeable person. it doesn't look like anythingyou would expect
from a very dignified or decent,solemn, very wise master in any case. the master then recited some versesfor the son. “ever-knowing as they hide,they seek.†they're hiding but they're seeking.they're seeking what? god's knowledge. as they hide, they also seek. “appearing other than they areto the ordinary man, in inward light they roam,making miracles come to pass. yet they are really known to no one.â€
it's very, very clear whatthe master said there. they're hiding so that they can seekthe knowledge within. “they appear not the way they are.†what they are insideand what they appear outside is very different so we cannot even tell,to the ordinary man only. but maybe you are not ordinary. if you see a man hiding like that,you’ll sure dig him out. can you tell?
no. (not always.) yes, not always. it’s difficult. “in inward light they roam,â€it means these people, even though they are hidingfrom the outer gaze of the public, they are roaming inside the light. that’s very clear. “making miracles come to pass†even,“yet they are really known to none.†some people might thinkthey know them, that’s what it is; but, really, nobody knows them.
nobody truly knows them,that’s what the master said, not i. he said, “yet they are reallyknown to no one.†it means a lot of peopledon’t know them. maybe they come to see them,and maybe they pay homage, maybe they give flowers and respect,but they don’t truly know that person. do they? (no.) do you? suppose you find that person and you suspect thathe is the man of the way, would you know him truly?
(no.) why no? depends on the individual and your inner, kind of, sincerityto ask specific questions, to kind of get any response from that. then you will know that person. yes, and how they arein response to you. okay. for me, it was not the word;just simply connection. that to me, i think, is strongerthan just the word.
everybody can say the word,but to feel it inside. that’s what really counts. you mean the intuitive feeling. yes. (okay.) maybe they don’t want toreveal themselves to you, and only if they feel that you are ready,then they reveal themselves. but here the master said that“really known to none.†this is the thing,nobody knows this person.
so the master means that you cannot really know100% of this person. you might guess, you might intuitively feel that“oh, this is an enlightened person.†but to know him in depthis not possible. yesterday you wanted to saysomething more, right? about my experience. what i often experience is a kind ofparallel (yes.) of events that take place in my life.
let's say, i saw some lectures of you.there was this lecture about kabir. there was a man whowanted to visit kabir, but he was not at home,he went to a funeral. and then the man asked, the wife said, "he's at a funeral, and if you go there,you can find him." but the man,he never saw kabir before, and then the man said,"but how can i recognize him?" and then the wife of kabir said,
"you can see it on his halo,there is white shining light.†yes, he has light around his head. so then the manhe went to the funeral. and when he arrived at the funeral;everybody had light around them! has light around his head, yes. so, it happened to me thatsomebody died in that same period and i saw that light around everybody. so, this parallel between an eventthat takes place in my life and then it is commented onby a tape or by a book.
so, at one time, i had a book,it is called “living amongstthe himalayan masters†from swami rama. and there's also one storyabout a swami who is, like you read therein your book, in this poem,he is throwing meat and flesh and dirt and mud at peopleto keep them at a distance. and he’s sitting amongst crocodiles. and like this,
he always wants to, he doesn't(understand.) behave in a social way. but like it was written in… not like a very compassionate master, loving and cordial and politeand so... so, when i read that book, the same happened,that events took place and they always coincidewith the story in the book. so the story in the book waskind of commenting on the event. good for you.
but maybe you can explainwhat is the mechanism? you see, if you didn't read the book, or you didn't hear my lectureabout kabir with the light around his head, and everybody else having the lightaround their head during the funeral service, then if you saw thatin the funeral event of your area, you wouldn't understand why. you would think you're crazy,maybe you're out of your mind,
and then you might keep askingeverybody else, and they will thinkyou are out of your mind. see what i mean? so it's good that you read thatand then you don't question and you don't tell, even,people who don’t understand anyway. it's good for you. the master, why do you thinkhe throws anything at the people? so that they don't go near?why does he do that? why couldn't they just let him comeand teach them something?
why do you think he throws them out? to keep the shallow out. they're all shallow, all of them? he told everybody to get out, right? he wanted to meditateand deepen his practice. the master didn't want to pick uptheir bad karmas (retribution). it's not that.it's not that, baby. no. maybe because he wants everyoneto leave him alone. it's not that.
it's just very difficultfor any master at all to find peace within this world,number 1. number 2, it’s very difficult to findanyone who is truly, very sincerely, questing for enlightenmentand nothing else. either they want toheal their sickness or want some fortune,win the lotto, or get a pretty wife, or want to bear more children,grandchildren – any kind of things;just want to go and bug him. just want him to dispense miracleswithout them working.
most people, if they come to revere a saint,they flock to him in numbers, but none of them are reallyseeking god, seeking the supreme wisdomor liberation. they just want to go there, borrow some merit,spiritual power from the master, just to squander itfor any materialistic reason. that's why most masters,they get tired. there’s also this story about a princewho wanted to visit a master
who lived in a cave and then all the timethe guardian was keeping him away. but then after 3 or 4 times that the prince attemptedto visit the master, he finally let him into the cave and then he received himon the mud and stone. and they were sitting together,and then the prince said, "it seems to methat you are very lonely, living here in this caveon stone and mud."
yes. alone and nothing, yes. alone and nothing. and then the master answered, "yes, since you are here,i start to feel lonely!" that's correct. that is correct!it is truly like that. people come and make you feel lonely. when you are alone,you have nothing to compare, and you're deepin your spiritual enjoyment.
and when some come around,they just bug you, and it just drags you intoa kind of a lower dimension in thinking and all that, makes you feel you're dragged backinto the world again. where there is comparison, high and low,and up and down and all that, and you feel lonely. you feel the loneliness ofthe people of the whole world. people are often lonely,that’s why they marry,
or they have a partner, or friends. so, when they bring thatinto your cave, you feel also. if you're alone,you don't feel lonely. truly. when you're alone,you feel so good. so good, so good. for the sake of the others, they sacrifice their tranquility,many other things. when you are with the multitude,it’s different. sometimes you have toeven act accordingly,
or compromising,so that they will understand you and then slowly bring them up. there is another storyi want to tell you, because i don’t understandthis story. tell me. it’s a story about maharshi patanjali. and he was a very high saint. he lived maybefive thousand years ago and he had abouta thousand students.
always when the seekers cameto become a student, then he disguised himselflike a demon. then he hung himself on the tree,making them scared, or made a joke. then he asked themstrange questions like, “are you well cooked?†yes, understand. this is a behavior likea ghost or, bad, or a demon, or incomprehensible;it’s not like a saint. so what happened?
then, at last he had 1,000 students and always when he was teachinghe taught behind a curtain, and then from behind the curtain,from his head or maybe from his body,grew a thousand snakes. and the snakes,they went in front of each student and then each student was taughtindividually by the snake. but it was the rule that nobodyshould look behind the curtain. and one day, he started his lesson, then one naughty student,(he wanted to look.)
he dared to look behind the curtain(yes.) and then in an instant,all the students were burned to ashes. it sounds like the story of shiva. then what happened was thatmaybe ten minutes later one student came –he was a little bit late – so he found there in this classroom, with all these ashesand then he asked what happened. and patanjali explained, and then this one student, he asked,“can i continue to be your student?â€
so, the moral of the story is thatwe are all exponents from this one student. so we are this lazy student,this slow student. the present human racecame from that person. the knowledge of the human racecame from that later student, the lazy one. so why don’t you understandthat story? what you don’t understand? this transformation of snakesin front of each student.
in the east, the snake is symbolicof wisdom. shiva has a lot snakes around him and some buddha or some vishnuhave a lot of snakes on top of their head. it just means each studenthas the master taught him individually, directly,but from a different angle. the snakes mean, just the wisdom was impartedto the students. it is not the snake at all;they’d be scared to death.
they don’t need to be burnt to death;they’re scared to death - everybody -the whole thousand snakes coming and poking at you all the time,imparting to you the wisdom. what about this curtain then? the curtain is a symbol that you don’t truly knowthe real master; you are covered, you see? you learn just partially. and the true master,you don’t really know.
you see the master as a bodysitting here for example. if i am a master,that’s all you see, as if a curtain has been drawnbetween you and the master and you don’t really know ifit’s a master or not a master, what the master truly looks likeinside. for the students, you don’t know. actually,your body is already the curtain. yes, something like that. but the rule that nobody should lookbehind the curtain
and if one trespassed this rule, then all the students were burntto ashes. that is after you’re initiated,you’re all connected. if one of you ever penetratedand became so enlightened and sees the real master, the “burnt to ashes†means justthe destroying of the ignorance of the physical ignorance. destroy the ego. not naughty,just one is more advanced, daring,
and can become enlightened; then everybody else gets helped too,because we are all connected. so after you penetrate the curtain,that means you are gone. in the old time, the masters seldom talkedblack and white. they gave you parables or examples. that is something thatthe outside people don’t know. supreme master ching haiwearing "veggie fur" february 7, 2009france
it’s not easy to let gowhen we are young. i was also the same. now, i can let go of anything,even monkhood. it’s wonderful tolet go of everything! normally, people let go oftheir families to be monks. later, they also let go of monkhood, because it’s not convenientto deliver sentient beings as a renunciate. it’s not convenientto even walk around.
you have to walk in a certain way. “how can a renunciatewalk like this?†in ã‚u lạc (vietnam),renunciates can’t laugh. they can’t show their teethwhen they laugh. it’s the same in china, right? laugh without showing teeth. how can a person laughwithout showing his teeth? laughing this way wouldsuffocate people to death. they would get a stomachachefrom suffocation.
you will know if you try. if you want to laugh, just laugh;if you want to cry, just cry. why can’t we show our teeth? what if someone’s teethare like this? they would show their teetheven when they are not laughing. so people like that can’t be monks,right? how can we be so discriminating? that’s right. some people’s teeth show
even when they are not laughing,right? some people think that it’s cuteto have teeth like that. their teeth are exposedlike those of a rabbit. it is very cute. yes! in the europeanand american tradition, people prefer to have slightly longerand more protruding teeth. when they laugh, they have a dimple on their chin,and show their teeth. the stars make their teethlook like that.
they think it’s more beautiful.yes! have you seen some of the starshaving teeth like a rabbit’s, showing a little bit? sometimes they spend a lot of moneyto have their teeth pulled out, and then replaced withprotruding teeth. they think it looks good this way. they have different views. so those people can’t be monks? in europe and america,
it’s considered attractiveto show our teeth when we smile. that’s why when they go out,they try to show their teeth. they think long teeth look better. they show their teethwhether they smile or not. they think they look good this way. it’s just a different view. why can’t people show their teeth?do you know the reason? maybe some peopledon’t brush their teeth well. maybe people look too attractivewhen they smile.
everyone looks lovelywhen they smile showing their teeth. that’s why smiling is forbidden,right? let’s take a look at how you smile. now try not to smile. you look different. some people look very ordinary, but when they smile,they are very attractive. it’s the same for men and women. maybe this waythey can’t be renunciates,
so they told peoplenot to show their teeth. how can people not show their teeth? we laugh from birth till now, then suddenly afterbecoming a renunciate, we can’t laugh anymore. how can we do that? we can’t even be trainedto become like that. we are happy spiritual practitioners. yes, it’s good enoughto be happy spiritual practitioners.
happy yogis! save the planet! it’s so fast now. this way no one can saythat he didn’t see it. i have a few more here too. they are made shiny to attract people. be veg! go green! 2 save the planet! they are everywhere,even in chinese as well!
the chinese can’t say,“i don’t know english!†right?there are even some in here! when i drink water, people can see it. when the wind blows,people can also see it. can you see it? (yes.) extraordinarily beautiful. it’s extraordinarily beautiful,not just ordinary. someone made it for mefor the new year. it’s not bad.
it’s very nice. did you have anything on your mindcoming here? we came to see master. just to see me! some people even tell meabout their toothache. if you have a toothache,go see a dentist! you were told not to show your teethwhen you laugh. but you did, that’s whyyou have a toothache. when your teeth are shown,they are exposed to the wind!
too windy and no wateris bad feng shui. does feng shui work? is it useful? (yes!) it’s useful! some of it is common sense. for example, we have too much stuff and we put it all over the garageand the storage room. some people collect all kindsof garbage, such as cartons, and they pile them all upin the garage,
leaving their car, which is worth hundred thousandsof dollars, outside. yes! no common sense! and they don’t store things neatly,leaving a mess. seeing this will be disturbingand uncomfortable. when we feel uncomfortablein the heart, we can’t think straight and we can’t do things wellor properly. so this is what people call“bad feng shui.â€
so we should get rid of the thingsthat we don’t use. take them away. give the unimportant thingsto other people, or throw them away. if you can’t give themto other people, then throw them away. selling them can also make money. garage sale. why pile them up there? many people are like this.
look at their garages -aren't their garages full of things, while their expensive carsare parked outside and exposed to the sun? then the cartons are protectedcarefully in the garage. cartons, old shoes, or worn-out shoes with holesopening in the front are all stored inside the garage. in case some day they will need their broken umbrellas,or torn blankets -
they put everything uselessin the garage. “in case†they are needed. they always say “in case.â€so things are all piled up there while the expensive carsare left outside. many people fill up their garageswith junk and park their cars outside.have you seen that? what about your cars? we don’t have a car. you don’t have a car?
no car. no car! it’s even better. you don’t have to pay insurance, and you don’t have toworry about car accidents. without a car, you won’tget into any car accidents. now people are encouragedto ride bicycles. so you are following the trend. it’s popular to walkand ride bicycles nowadays, so we don’t need cars at all.
it’s good enoughto meditate in a cave. it’s so comfortable thati don’t even want to get up, let alone drive a car. this world binds us too tightly. it’s the same for both men and women. we are bound in different ways. our body also binds us. sometimes we don’t want toget married, but the body makes us get married.
the world is really nonsenseand full of suffering. it abuses everyone to the extreme, men and women alike,married or not married. the world abuses peoplein different ways. after people get married,they have children, and the children continueto abuse them. after the children go out toget married, they can finally relax. but soon after, the grandchildren come backto abuse the grandmothers.
if their marriage is not going well,they move back to live with the mom. the mom was just taking a break, and now she has to raise childrenagain. “oh! how cute!†then she is bound again. it is like this. we can never finish our workand take a rest. even without childrenor grandchildren, we have other problems.
there is global warming right now,which we can’t run away from. this problem is not likehaving a child. if we have a child, we can say,“oh! he is married, so i don’t have to worry about himanymore. when the grandchild is born,he is your child, you have to take care of himyourself.†global warming is unavoidablebecause it’s affecting everyone. there are lots of poisonous gasesin the world. the poisonous gas from atomic bombswon’t go away;
it still circulates in our air. so even though it’s notas severe as the time when the bombs first exploded, it’s still circulatingin the atmosphere. the sun is helpful to us,but it also has its harmful effect. radiation. the solar radiation. so there is so much poisonous gasin the air, and it keeps increasing - because there are more and more carsand factories and less oxygen.
the big forests have been logged. many forests have been logged!my god! if i don’t think about it,i am not as afraid. thinking about how many treesthey are cutting down every day scares me to death. how can people destroy our homelike this? we only have one home,but they keep destroying it, if not here, then there. they build a lot of houseseven if no one will live in them,
just to make money,and to reduce their taxes. what else do they do? they grow crops to feedpigs and sheep. yes, to feed the animals. that’s why there are more and morecarbon emissions and less and less oxygen. that’s why we are aging more rapidly, our bodies become more tiredand our lifespan is very short. we heard that peng zulived for 800 years,
it’s not a joke. why can’t we live for that long? our body is the exact same bodywe had when we were 20 years old. some people have few illnesses,so their bodies stay the same; they don’t change much. some look very young, and they can livefor a very long time. originally, the body can lastfor a very long time - 800 years is nothing.
it can last for 8,000 years,even 80,000 years. it’s not a big deal. our body is a wonder originally. it can automatically rejuvenate! yes, our body can renew itself.(metabolism.) yes, it filters outthe poisonous gases, eliminates old cellsand replaces them with new ones. it does a lot of work insideevery day. it produces a lot of new cellsevery day,
and about every 4 weeks,it renews itself. it renews the blood, skin and cells. so every three or four weeks,we should be rejuvenated, then we can live forever. shakyamuni buddha said that it is a very rare chancefor us to have this human body. why did he praise this physical bodyso much while everyone else says that the physical body is ephemeraland nothing special?
it’s because only whenwe have this body can we practice spiritually. it’s not good without a body. angels don’t have bodies like ours. so, our body is extraordinarybecause we can train it, even to fly in the sky. today, there are still peoplewho can fly. maybe they can’t fly very high,but they can fly a little. this is in this present time.
there were peoplewho could fly in the past. traveling on clouds is not fiction. people in ancient times could do it. walking on water is nothing. some monks in the himalayascan also do it now. i saw it with my own eyes. he didn’t sink into the water. he wasn’t swimming. no. he stood or sat on the water.
but if we live a little longer, we can train ourselves to havea lot of magical power like that. imagine that peng zulived for 800 years. i am not talking about 10,000 years. we used to wish our emperors“to live 10,000 years.†maybe they did live that long. otherwise, how could peoplethink of this? it used to be like that. people used to live 10,000 years.
but as we are getting moreand more contaminated, our body can't repair itself in time. that’s why we age and die so quickly. in ancient times,people didn’t die so quickly. it was common to live up to 800 yearsor even 10,000 years. in ancient china, there must be peoplewho lived for 10,000 years. otherwise, if people hadn’t knownabout this, how could they have imagined it?
if they just imagined it like this,it would become a lie! right? (right.) if there had never been such things, and you gave the emperorhigh expectations, this would have been a crimeof deceiving the emperor. it is impossible thatthey gave the emperor such high expectationsor impressions. so there must have beensuch occurrences in the past! it’s just that they weren’t recorded.
only peng zu’s story was recordedand revealed. in the past, many books were burned. qin shi huang must have been jealous! he read that those peoplelived up to 10,000 years, but he didn’t believe it. in those days, he must have beenvery tired from fighting wars and feeling pains everywherewhen he was in his 50’s or 60’s, so he thought it was impossible that someone could have livedto 800 or even 10,000 years old.
that’s why he was mad.he was furious! so he burned all those books and we are no longer able toread the many things recorded in history now. master, how longcan the martians live? the martians, 200 years. some can live longer,and some shorter. two hundred years is nothing.some can live even longer. just wait and see.
the main thing is to have good airand good spirit. without too manycomplicated thoughts or too much competition, and with a peaceful society,even ordinary people can live longer. they can live at most20 to 30 years longer. but our world is too chaotic,exhausting, and competitive. every day people have to work8 to 10 hours, but how much money can they make? not that much.
and then they have to pay taxes,insurance, and this and that tax. even visiting friends cost money.that’s right! even if you have paid, you still might not getyour airplane tickets! in some places, it’s like this. you have paid money here and there,and then you can’t make the trip. you don’t even get a refund. how can there be such things? is this considered fair?
let me tell you. if you go buy something at a store,or if you order something, but they can't send you the item, then they have to refund youthe money, right? (right.) at least 80% refund,70%, or even 50% is good! but they don’t refund people!and they withhold the goods. how can people do this? how can they call this democracyor freedom? let me tell you.this world is funny, truly funny.
the more we think about it,the more we want to laugh at it, because we can no longer cry. crying doesn’t help,so we might as well laugh. we have no more tears to cry. we’re too tired to cry! thinking about your sufferings,sometimes i feel so sad. where did the bad karma(retribution) come from? you were just born a nice babyhaving done nothing, but you have accumulated moreand more bad karma as you grow.
how strange! it must have come from the society. for example, after we were born,we only drank our mother’s milk, but later we were forced to eatchicken, pork, then beef,and then we get used to it. "if you don’t eat meat, you’ll die from starvationor malnutrition.†we were instilled withthis kind of concept that we have to eat this or that;
otherwise, we won’t haveenough nutrition. we didn’t want to eat meatoriginally, but people forced us to eat meat. then because of this piece of meatforced upon us, we’ll be toiling our entire life. if since we were little, we were raised to just plantsome vegetables or fruits outside, and eat the fruits we plant,then it would be fine. it is also economical, right?
no, we have to eat pork,chicken and beef. then, “you ate them, you have created bad karma(retribution)!†the king of maya tells us,“since you ate my meat, when we were born,we had no idea what meat was. but we were forced to eat it. the whole society forced our parentsto eat meat, and their parents also forced themto eat meat, now our parents force us to eat meat.
if we had never metsupreme master ching hai, we would have forced our childrento eat meat as well. so, day and night, we toil for food. if we don’t need to eat,who needs to work? what for? also, we have to eat meat,which is very expensive. we aren’t just eating meat;we are devouring the whole planet. eating meat is devouring the earth. that’s why our planet is closeto being destroyed now,
all because of meat. we didn’t want it this way. those people who eat meatand drink alcohol didn’t want to do this originallyeither. when they were born,they didn’t do any of this, but later they were forced to do it. some of the diseasesrelated to meat consumption/production: rabies

they can’t think anymore. they will do whateverother people do, and they can’t think independently. they can’t become enlightenedthemselves. they don’t have their own ideas. that’s why humans are very pitiful. they truly don’t understand. even though i’ve been travellingeverywhere, how many people can i teach?
i can’t teach them every day. i can’t go to london and give a lecture in one dayand then stay there to watch them. they only heard from me once,and at that time, they might have liked what i said, “okay,i’ll surely become a vegetarian.†then when they went home,100 people would stare at them, “are you crazy?†and their friends would get themto go eat steaks,
and they can’t refuse. if they refuse today,tomorrow or the day after, by the third day,they would succumb. their parents would push them, and their husbands or wiveswould push them, and maybe their childrenwould also push them. “mother, you can’t eat like this,you’ll die! you must eat meat!â€for example like this. the pressure is tremendous.
so, if you can continueto be vegetarians, i’m already very happy, i don’t expect anything else from you. being a vegetarian is alreadyvery good. but keep the vegetarian diet pure. in our time, it’s very hard for us tofind pure vegetarian food. even bread contains eggs.what for? they add eggs without telling you.
they don’t label it. because they mix a little waterwith egg, and brush it on the breadto make it shiny, pretty, and crispy. so some french breador crispy bread is like this. so, you have to ask them clearly. but even if you ask, they won’t tell. they don’t know, either, because they bought itfrom somewhere else and brought it to their store.so they don’t know, either.
they sometimes even put eggsin ice cream. my god! and they process sugarwith cow bone, etc. some brown sugars are alsoprocessed with cow bone. only non-granulated sugar is notmade through this process. so, it’s best not to eatgranulated sugar. maybe raw sugar still keepsits original flavor. when i was in ã‚u lạc (vietnam), i didn't know they process sugarthis way.
they wouldn’t do it this way. i only saw them chopping down(sugar cane) sugar cane. yes, and then they putthe sugar cane into the center of a machineto press its juice out. then they store the cane juicein a bucket. after boiling it long enough,it becomes hardened. then some granulated sugarwill sink to the bottom. after storing it for a long time,you will have some granulated sugar. this is natural granulated sugar.
so, i didn’t know. even i don’t have timeto research these kinds of things. then i got to know it more and more. it is really horrifying! even eating sugar causes us trouble. this kind of world trulybelongs to maya. maya truly wants tooppress us to the very end. even when we eat something,we fall into the trap. this is too horrible!
even such an innocent substancelike sugar has to be processedwith charred bones. it is absorptive and can be usedto bleach the sugar. right, right, right! so that the sugar looks pretty. right, pretty. how can it be pretty? my god! it’s awful! really terrible! they really want to drag us downthrough any means,
to stop us frompracticing spiritually, because demons are jealous of ushumans, because we humans are just like god –we are the same kind. we have unimaginablemagical power inside. that is why there arespiritual practitioners who can float above water and appear in multiple locationsat the same time. these are achieved withthe physical body. this physical body is well-equippedfor everything.
there is light, brightness, and loveinside the physical body. everything is well-equipped inside. but demons do not have this. they cannot be equipped this way.that is why they are jealous. even if they kill us,and open up our bodies to look inside, they cannot bring outour invisible hidden quality to put into use,so they oppress us out of jealousy. they mean to say, "since i can't use it,neither can you!"
so the demons are too pathetic. they are the discards of god. they inflate their egos,wanting to become saints. without compassion,how can they become saints? that's the differencebetween saints and demons. they are very intelligentbut lack compassion. humans, especially saints,have compassion, so we can practice spirituallyand visit different realms. demons can never be elevatedno matter how much they practice.
they can at most reach the edgeof the third level, standing there,taking a look, and drooling. that is why they are jealousand resent us. they can't get what we have. they can't take it out no matter how many times they kill us,or how many people they kill. those are not material things. for instance,einstein's brain looks like ours, but it’s not possible for us to getthe intelligence from his brain.
even if we put his braininside our head, we still will not be like him. there is something different. suppose a demon came to killshakyamuni buddha after he became a buddha, and took his heart,his head, his brain, and other things to putinside his demonic body, he still can’t be omnipresent,all powerful and all loving like shakyamuni buddha.you see what i mean?
they can’t attain that. but we humans all have this ability; we all have this quality thatshakyamuni buddha has. when we advance in our practice,we can attain everything. so it’s a pity. that’s why mayawon’t let us live too long. since ancient times, maya has mademany things chaotic, making our world toxic,full of toxic gases.
our life is made very difficult and we are oppressedto suffer like this, and we are unable to livefor too long. if we could live longer,we’d be able to develop everything. then maya could only drool, and could not control us anymore. instead, we’d be able to control him. that’s why he wants to control usby every means - poison, drugs, toxic gas, etc.
he uses them all. during the wars in the past, bombs and many other thingsdamaged our “protective layer.†our ozone layer was also damaged. in ancient times, there wasan even better ozone layer - a very long time ago,maybe during the time of peng zu, or even further back whenthe world was peaceful. maya has been thinking ofways to destroy humans. that is why so manychaotic things happened
and all sorts of diseases appeared. even if we don’t eat meat,we still get sick because they secretly add meatand eggs in vegetarian food. when they can’t add meat,they process the food through meat, through bones for whitening. it has so much hatred, because it’s maya, a ghost. there is nothing we can do.he is not teachable. many demons have already surrendered,
but some are still very stubborn. this world is not wholesome yet,so we still have a lot of trouble. but even if they surrender,it’s already too late now. many people have already sufferedand gotten confused. right now, many peopleare still confused. and there is a lot of toxic gas. even though we are alive,we feel heavy and sluggish. that’s why we get tiredafter doing a little work. even when we aren’t working,we feel tired, too.
we feel tired without eating, and we also feel tired after eating.(yes.) it’s like this! we can’t do anything, because the entire atmospherehas been damaged. the negative energy from many peopleis pressing down on the whole planet, so many people can’t think straight. so when i give lectures,you understand very clearly because it’s nothing specialor hard to understand.
but these people don’t,and they have doubts. or, they can’t change their habitsto give up that piece of meat, for example. it’s not that they don’t want togive it up; but they are oppressedby maya. some people are more oppressedby maya, and some less. some people have stronger willpower, so when they are oppressed,their determination comes out. “i must follow masterto be a vegetarian.
i don’t care!even if i suffer, i have to go.†some people back offafter feeling a little suffering because they are oppressedby maya. just with a little pressure,they are scared, and back off. so you are very brave!i congratulate you! thank you, master. and then, the braver you are, the more committed you areto the vegetarian lifestyle, the clearer you think,
and the more you understandwhat i say. right! right! right! you also understood it before, but now you understand more and morebecause you’re very clear; you’re enlightened! you can communicate withthe great power of your true self. i mean, you are still oppressedtoo much, but you are already very incrediblelike this! i truly cherish you a lot.
even if you are only a vegetarian,you are already incredible. people outsidewho are not vegetarian or do not practice spirituallyaren’t bad people. “human’s inborn nature is kindness.†you have to believein this sentence. it’s truly like that. we are from god, how can our inborn naturenot be kindness? when we were born as babies,
when we were born as babies,who would we want to kill? how would we want to consume meat,alcohol, or chicken? no! it’s just that as we grew up, we got polluted by a bunch of peoplewho had already been polluted. one person pollutes two,two pollute three, and three pollute four. when we were born,we were already surrounded. we truly can’t swim out of it. your being able to strive to reachthis state is already very good.

you have to work,and endure pressure, and… children, the society,the government… so much! they all try to tempt us. even though our parents love usthe most, they don’t understand us either. that’s why they also pressure usand make us eat meat since when we were young. it is because they were alsopressured by their parents, and their parents were pressuredby their parents’ parents,
and their parents’ parents’ parents’were pressured by the society, etc. it was passed down.understand? (understand.) so, everyone is very pitiable. we are one anyway! now meditate. working togetherto spread the veg message february 27, 2009france hallo! how is everyone?(hallo, master!) people are beginning tobecome vegetarians in china, right?
have you watched today’s news? yes, we have. any good news? people are beginning to becomevegetarians in hangzhou. what else? beijing as well. the prime ministerand environment minister of france said we shouldbecome vegetarians. great! you did watch it.
let me tell you, you should watch the newsevery day, only so can we be united as onein our heart. when i am happy, you are also happybecause we see good news. this way, at leastwe are one in one sense. so you should watchthe good news every day. aren’t you very happywatching this? (yes.) how many people are happy?raise your hand!
all of you watched the news,didn’t you? have you watchedsupreme master tv news today? very good! we report the most accurateand the most helpful news every day. mainland china has mademuch progress. our compatriots over there arevery enlightened. they are. our planet earth isat a critical point. it has reached an urgent stage.
if people don’t cooperatewe might all perish. it doesn’t matter for some people,as they will go up after death. some other people will go down,and that’s the trouble. we are most concernedabout those who may go down because they are not awakened yet,and time is running out. there seems to be hope. wish you all happiness! happy new year! my heart softens and i feel relaxedwhen i see you.
how is your meditation? good! very comfortable. is everyone comfortable? (yes.) very good.it's good to hear that. before, we used to campand meditate outdoors most of the time. it’s much better here, right? (yes!) it's small but good.
this way you can see me better.(yes.) in a bigger space, you can’t see mastereven with a telescope. like in the thailand seminar,i looked so small, like this. you needed a telescopeto see from very far, “oh, is that master?†for some initiates, it was the first time they saw me,wasn’t it? besides, i was so far away
that they couldn’t see meby any means. “is this master? are you sure? you’ve seen master before.is this her?†even if she had a black beauty markhere, which i don’t have, you wouldn’t be able to tell. any good news? tell us. we are planningthe second loving hut.
not bad, not bad! the manager ofthe loving hut wanted us to relay the message to you that the loving hut has been doingvery well. everyone feels the immenseblessing power from master. the owners ofthe neighboring meat restaurants all like to dine at our loving hut. we also have a very good relationship with the local residentsin the neighborhood.
additionally, because our loving hutis close to three universities, the students also love to eatat our restaurant. loving hut introduceda monthly dining card with a 15% discount. those fellow practitionerswho work there may not have a chance to come here. then take turns. take turns.
but they feel thatthey are progressing very rapidly in spiritual practicedespite their daily hustle and bustle. that’s also okay. love means lookingin the same direction. it’s not to possess anyone, which won’t work anyhow.this is good. they will be greatly blessed. god will see that. whatever we do, heaven is watching.
no need to boast to anyone. save the planet first! maybe in the future,other non-vegetarian restaurants will be converted tovegetarian restaurants. then you can retireand come to meditate with me. now you take turns. be patient for a few years. following master’s instructionsafter going back, we fellow practitionershave been trying our best
to distribute flyersand thinking of different ways through communities and schoolsto save the planet. good, good! very good! thank you! some sisters who came backfrom the previous groups put up announcementson both sides of the bus for many bus routes. many buses now have“sos save the planet†on the flashing ad panelin the front.
so more and more people receivethe message of “being veg and saving the planet.†you’re so brave. very brave, very brave. hi, master. i received an email from my friendwith an attachment saying that the central government has releasedan official document with the title“be veg to reduce global warming.†that means our governmenthas started paying attention
to this message. bravo! i’m so happy! master, i’ll tell you some good news. “save our planet†announcementshave been put up on the buses. we distributed flyers in countrysides. members in my brigade all knowabout the “saving the planet†message. they are also very supportiveand enthusiastic. they welcome us to postand distribute flyers, and they all read it.
very good. we are united at all levelsfor this task. master, we coach fellow practitionerson how to give speeches in public. we coach them to give speechesin communities and schools. a friend of mine never took buses. once by chance,he took the bus and he saw the sos save the planetannouncement on the bus. he was very willing to helpintroduce me to many more people, such as newspaper agenciesand others,
so that we can work on thistogether. i think in our next phase, we can coach morefellow practitioners to give speeches in the communities. go ahead if you can speak. since it’s so free now,hurry up and go forth! china is so free now. hallo, master! go ahead!
the councilor’s officeof the state council published an article writtenby a senior engineer. he mentioned five points,among which the most important one isto save the planet by being veg. that’s fromthe state council of china. who is the author? he is a senior engineer ofthe councilor’s office. a graduate from tsinghua university. right. (okay.)
this is very encouraging news. i am a teacher at a university. the university president isvery concerned about environmental issues. i submitted an applicationto make a speech addressing the entire campusentitled, “the current status of global warmingand countermeasures.†it was approvedand i have already given it. it was very successful.
next, i started upan elective course called “a new paradigmfor the world's diet.†the enrollment period wastwo weeks, but it was fully registeredon the third day with 240 people. i’m prepared to explainthe situation to them in detail. hallo, master. we also have a bus linewhich is being painted now with “sos. be veg.save the planet.†it will be on the roadvery soon.
meanwhile, we’ve chosen two morehigh-volume bus lines for putting up the sos announcementon both side panels and the seats inside the bus so that more peoplecan get the message. we’ve already started to work on it, and it will be on the road soonin march. wonderful!you can do it so openly? (yes.) in zhejiang, news of the vegetarian diet was printed in 20,000 copiesof newspapers.
very good! okay! bravo! master, during the temple fair, we set up two vegetarian booths. many fellow practitionerswent there to pass out flyers. they even gave them to the police,and they all accepted them. we had two vegetarian boothsto publicly promote “be veg, go green 2 save our planetâ€on banners. yes, okay. when you open a restaurantand make a little profit sometimes,
remember to helpduring local disasters, or help orphans, widowed and others. you can either do it throughthe government or by yourself. report to the government that we have made a little profit, and we want to contributeto the country. ask the government for placesmost in need of help. you have to askand respect the government. you must ask and then go to the areathey tell you.
put aside a little bit every month,if you have enough. initiates receivedgood results when we distributed the flyers. we passed out one flyerwith one or two candies, to draw people's attentionto “be veg†and “save the planet.†good. candies are very sweet. we’re also distributing flyers. apart from that, we have putannouncements on the bus
to promote the vegan diet. the announcement reads, “being veg for one day isequivalent to planting 100 trees.†it really is so! yes, you can do some calculationsand put in the result, be it 10, or 100 trees, etc. that’s wonderful! the fellow practitionersalso distributed the be veg flyers. they tell people about“being veg, going greenâ€
while distributing the flyers. a lot of fellow practitionersparticipated in planting trees. some companies startedto support the development of the tree-planting business,and joined efforts with the initiates. yes! we’re all actively workingto save the planet. you still go planting treesat your age? it's good for your health. let people know thatwe don’t age that much
when keeping a vegetarian diet. very good, very good. our fellow practitioners arevery enthusiastic in passing out flyers. we pass out flyers day and night. we make use of the evening time...to do it as well. we distribute flyers, and put up be veg,save the planet posters. these fellow citizensreally deserve an award. we also spread the message ofbe veg, save the planet
on the buses or trains.(you put it everywhere.) we tell them the benefits ofbeing veg, and of the planetary crisis.(yes, yes.) everyone, young or old,all have the duty to do their part. european parliamentsupports reducing meat to lower greenhouse gases. ... reduce your meat consumptionor stop eating meat totally. during discussionson greenhouse gas reduction goals, the climate committeeof the european parliament
officially recognized livestock’scontribution to global warming and recommended a reductionof subsidies to the livestock industry to curb methane. the european parliament has adoptedits own position on climate change as an institution. and as a vice-president, one of the proposals i’ve madeis in line with your own; which is that we should eatfar less meat because that’s one ofthe major sources
of greenhouse gasses. please eat less meat,and let's make taxes on meat. that's definitely one of the issueswe are talking about. i'd like to tell peoplewhat the cost is of eating meat, for the environment worldwide. my name is jens holm. i’m a member ofthe european parliament. please, be veg, go green,2 save the planet! yes, yes. that’s all.
we are also thinking aboutopening a vegetarian restaurant when we go back. right. all fellow practitionersare working together. we want to openthe vegetarian restaurant this way. also, if you don’t have moneyto open a restaurant, you can make lunchboxes,like those sisters. they enjoy it very much. even though they sell at a low price,they can still make a profit.
go sell lunchboxesto companies or schools. make lunchboxes and sell themone by one like that. it is also not too bad. i tell you,doing vegetarian business, at least we won’t starve ourselvesto death. even if we can’t sell them all,we can eat the leftovers ourselves. or before selling themwe also can have some. so it will be fine. the fellow practitioners put moneytogether to print the flyers
and distributed them on the busesand in the parks. once we finished passing out flyerson one bus, we immediately got offand got on another one. wonderful! some initiates cook vegetarian mealsat home and deliver them outside. yes, that’s right! it doesn’t require much capitalthis way, and you don’t have toopen a restaurant. just let them try vegetarian foodto see if it’s tasty.
yes, if it’s tasty, they will spread the newsby word of mouth, then many people will comefor the lunchboxes and place orders. all fellow practitioners/are being active. all fellow practitionersare being active. those with money contribute money, and those who can workdo what they can. everyone helps in different ways. some distribute flyers,
others hold vegan meal tasting eventsat eight major universities. many old professors arevery happy to see that. some even got initiated. some attended vegan promotion events. everything is going very well. we also openeda few small loving huts. now, there are quite a few. many fellow practitioners are openingsmall loving huts, with a space of 20 or 30square meters.
we cook vegetarian mealsand steamed buns to give to the neighbors. i think that’s especially good. that sounds very good. it seems like mainland chinahas become heaven now. people are free to go anywherethey want to pass out flyers and open restaurants. the initiates over there are reallydoing their best. hallo, master!there is more good news.
we have organized seminars aboutbeing veg to save the planet. after the seminars, we haddiscussions with the attendees. we prepared vegetarian foodfor them to try. they have good commentsabout the food. (good!) it was held in the municipal building. it was also videotapedand broadcast on district tv. they aired it once, and then again on a local tv channel. i see.
many fellow practitionersare preparing the material for their speeches atcommunities, schools, or in the government buildings. that’s what we are doing now. wonderful! wonderful! this way, it is really fulfillingthe ideal of democracy, freedom, independence, peace, and providing ample food and shelterto the citizens. great! the ideal has truly been fulfilled.
sometimes it’s easy totalk about ideals but hard to put them into action. if you can do it, that’s very good. our fellow practitionersgo everywhere to distribute flyers and explain to peoplewhen we pass out the flyers. sometimes we also hand outsmall gifts like hand towels. many villagers come togetherto listen. they say, "it sounds likethe planet is nearly ruined. in that case, we have todo something together."
many of them are very activelyresponding to the message. they didn’t know. they were shocked. yes, it’s a pity that some peoplereally don’t have any ideas. because the flyers haveso much information to read, sometimes we explain it to them. so sometimes, we’re surroundedby many people while spreading the news. some fellow practitioners startedto make steamed buns at home,
and invite people to try.after they tried it, they realized that veg foodis very tasty. everyone is doing something. it’s easier to workwhen we are united. the fellow practitioners arewell united. i feel the villagers,especially those under 40, are very supportive. the younger generationmay need a little time but we’ll get the messageacross gradually.
it’s beneficial to activelyspread the message. it is beneficial. it is definitely beneficial. master, i’ve been initiated for just a month, and i have the great honorto come here to see you. we also distribute flyers in our area. apart from flyers, we also print the messageon shopping bags.
it’s quicker to hand outshopping bags. bags are more welcome. on top of that, we put up a big billboardin the community. but we feel we are still actingtoo slowly. incredible! that’s already very good. you couldn’t do thisin the past. wonderful! i’m happy for you.
in the future, everyone will belong tothe same one country. there is no need to distinguishbetween the main land, the small land and medium land, etc., because the whole world will be united - meaning to cooperate witheach other. you still have your country.no one will invade. that means there will bemore freedom and understanding between each other.
in the past,there is less immigration because the borderswere tightly controlled. for example, that countryis very hard to get into. it's difficult to get in,and hard to get out. people outside feel temptedto get in to have a look. they wonder whythey are not allowed to get in. sometimes, they are upset for thisand then start the war. war! if we are all open like this,all nations are free, and they understand each other,there won’t be wars anymore.
it will be like that in the future. it will become like this for sure. it will improve,just like other planets. there is some other newsfrom hangzhou about vegetarianism. a tv channel in hangzhou isairing programs on vegetarianism. really? when i went to hangzhou,it was not like that. i’ve been to the countryside, to communities, and to local schools.
it must be good. we had a very good responseafter handing out the flyers. very good.that’s right. it must be very good. the health interview programon cctv2 in mainland china is a very official programhosted by sun yamei. it also showedthat the vegetarian diet is the most suitable dietfor the human body. that’s great. it’s on cctv,a mainstream media channel.
wonderful, wonderful. another programon jiangxi satellite tv, “un predictionâ€, says that shanghai will be submergedin eight years. these are some reportsby the mainstream media. good, you report them tosupreme master television. we’ll broadcast it. we’ve also designed somepowerpoint diagrams, flash videos,and a lot of veg info,
including the climatein mainland china. we made them onto dvdsand it’s available for everyone to downloadso that everyone can give speeches. everyone is learninghow to give speeches and is responsiblefor his own community. we found it very effective topromote in the local communities. very good, bravo! if you know thatyour local tv station is broadcasting programson the veg diet,
or some newspapers arehighlighting those issues, report to supreme master television. let them broadcast it so that everybody knows thatthis is the current trend. every day, we report that this is publishedon a certain newspaper, or broadcastedby a certain tv channel. i come from paris. i’m very happy to hearso much good news
from the fellow practitionersfrom mainland china. i want to report another newsto master that there was an exhibitionthis past sunday in paris, an animal exhibition. in a courtyard oppositethe exhibition center, our fellow practitionersprepared a lot of vegetarian food and sent it to the exhibitionfor people to eat, free of charge. it happened to be ching hai day. many fellow practitionersworked very hard…
(very good. )… to pass out flyers there. we are determinedto make an all-out effort we’ll promote from all avenues,like everybody has said. just now, master mentionednewspapers, tv and announcements. we have been putting upannouncements on a large screen in the busiest spotfor about half a year. it shows “be veg, go green2 save our planet.†“meat diet is the main cause ofglobal warming.†and “veg diet can reverseheart disease and diabetes.â€
post all these messages up,as much as possible. yes, we should do something like thateverywhere. additionally, master, seeing so many fellow practitionersi’m very excited and happy. i know. i know. i am very touched in my heart,and very excited. master, i think if everywhere,in every district, every province and city, there is a veg centeror veg community,
it can motivate and influencemany more people to become vegetarian. i hope that will motivateorganic farming in rural and other areas. correct, but we cannot force peopleto do it. whatever they can do, they’ve already been tryingtheir best. i hope the vegetarian diet canbecome a fashion. that’s the vision for the future.
but you should do it first.you guys work together.
