  Teachers 
                and students in a school in Bolivia are highly interested in Master's 
                teachings.

            |   In April 
                we also held a conference in Saint Germain High School, Cochabamba, 
                Bolivia.

            |   In early May, a group of spiritual aspirants 
                visited us and requested Convenient Method training.
 |   [Santa 
        Cruz] A Quan Yin messenger arrived in Bolivia in March to teach 
        the Convenient Method. Many sincere people, who had been longing to learn 
        the Convenient Method for months, finally received what they were waiting 
        for. The Quan Yin messenger stopped in five different cities in Bolivia, 
        including Santa Cruz, La Paz, Cochabamba, Suere and Trinidad.
  Local 
        people who received Convenient Method training and attended informational 
        sessions about Master's teachings were not very rich in worldly possessions. 
        But they all showed a high level of sincerity and were very eager to start 
        following a vegetarian diet in order to receive initiation into the Quan 
        Yin Method. Naturally, most of them had wonderful inner experiences once 
        they received Convenient Method training. During the sessions, they also 
        received many vegetarian recipes that they could use for their new diet. 
        Some of them qualified to receive initiation right away since they had 
        been pure vegetarians without eating eggs for quite a long time. Therefore, 
        a program was planned for initiation in four cities. 
 
  Among the new initiates 
        was a principal of a school in Cochabamba who has been a vegetarian for 
        ten years. In addition to his teaching job, he also practices Naturopathy. 
        With great enthusiasm, he organized a conference for the students in his 
        school to learn about Master's teachings. The school is divided into two 
        sections, so one lecture was organized for the group of students attending 
        in the morning, and another for those attending in the afternoon. At both 
        lectures, all students were very enthusiastic. Some even helped to prepare 
        materials for the lectures.
  Many 
        students and some teachers (including the principal) attended the conference. 
        They watched Master's videotape and showed great interest in knowing more 
        about Master. Many of them asked interesting questions during the Q&A 
        session. Many attendees also filled out application forms. Most of them 
        asked for the Convenient Method while others wanted to subscribe to our 
        magazine. Several directly requested initiation.
  At 
        the conference there was a chemistry teacher from another school who was 
        also a leader of a group of University students organized around the topic 
        of spiritual development. He had recently learned the Convenient Method 
        and frequently helps Master's association. Once the University students 
        heard about Master, all of them applied for the Convenient Method. This 
        teacher is also very motivated to look for a place and establish a local 
        Center for group meditation in Cochobamba.
