Peaceful and Pleasant Retreats in Nepal

[Kathmandu] As Supreme Master Ching Hai stepped into Nepal on May 1, 2000, Her holy presence seemed to overcome the entire country with the highest degree of spiritual love, peace, and happiness.

The distribution of sample booklets before the lecture helped to open the inner eye of most of the people. It was surprising to see how, by reading the sample booklet, so many immediately experienced a very positive change in their thinking about becoming pure vegetarians. More than 600 people are received initiation that day, and well over 600 learned the Convenient Method. Although it was Her first visit to Nepal, many audience members easily recognized our Holy Master and Her selfless teaching of love and salvation.

Many new initiates and Convenient Method practitioners are now coming regularly for group meditation at the Kathmandu Center, and new people are learning the Convenient Method. Recently, everyone in our Center agreed that we should hold retreats, and so we organized two one-day retreats for the 26th of August and the 2nd of September 2000. The atmosphere was full of peace and pleasant waves of heavenly happiness. Some initiates had very good experiences and they suggested having more retreats in the future.
