The
Slovenian and Croatian people who attended Master's lecture in Slovenia
were very warm and receptive to Her words, and to the suggestions
of the working team members who interviewed people for initiation
and Convenient Method training. As I spoke to those who wished to
learn the Convenient Method, I could feel the intensity of their enthusiasm.
One young woman, who was struggling to get off of drugs through a
rehabilitation program, expressed a great deal of interest in Master's
teachings, and appreciation for our efforts. I assured her that with
Master's powerful blessing energy she could surely overcome her drug
habit, advance spiritually, and eventually move on to practicing the
Quan Yin Method.
Other local people seemed
very receptive as well, and asked many questions about spiritual practice.
I felt a special affinity with the people of this area, since my grandparents
came from neighboring Croatia and the Croatian and Slovenian languages
and cultures are very similar. With Master's help, I began remembering
a few phrases in Croatian that I had learned as a child, and used
them with the lecture attendees, which seemed to create a closer bond
between us.
One Slovenian man, who
was especially warmhearted and excited about learning meditation,
helped me translate at our table when the initiate who had been helping
me went to translate for Master. He seemed filled with Master's blessing
energy, and joyfully worked with me to handle the large group of people
applying for the Convenient Method.
Several people with whom
we had talked approached us after learning the Convenient Method to
thank us warmly for our help and for the chance to meet Master. My
wonderful experience in Ljubljana makes me want to go back to Slovenia
and Croatia someday to help local initiates continue spreading Master's
teachings.
