Master Says

~Spoken by Supreme Master Ching Hai
Fresno Convention Center, CA, USA, June 23, 2001 (Originally in English)

 

Today we are here to introduce you to the Supreme Master Ching Hai. (Master and audience laugh) It is an honor for me also because She is great. Whenever you are in trouble you just tell Her to fix it and She does, no matter what kind of trouble. She's a "lady of solutions." Ching Hai means the ocean of love, the Supreme Master is God. I am very honored also to work for Her. I am one of the managers of the company, and we have a lot of employees who're always willing to work free of charge anytime, with or without request. It's a very funny company. The employees request to work for free. I am popular here and maybe you are also popular; I don't know.

The boss always says, "No, no, no... maybe, maybe..." The real boss always says yes before we even do anything, but the manager is lazy, you know, been employed too long, too secure, too much salary, good everything, everything that's happened is good, working long, and then it's a very good position now, so now the manager is lazy just like many other managers. Oh, don't tell the manager of this convention center. He's different.

So anyway, lets get back to the Supreme Master Ching Hai. She is a good one; sometimes She's a "He"; that person changes from a " She" to "He" all the time. Sometimes She looks like an old lady, old man with a long beard like that. And sometimes She looks like a young lady, a beautiful princess, beautiful king, beautiful queen, beautiful kid ... all kinds of appearances She takes when She needs or He needs to help someone who is in trouble. The reason they are in trouble is because they do not know how to get into direct contact with that Supreme Master Herself. I am here to tell you how to get in touch with Her directly every day, with no need for AT&T, no need for the Internet.

Master is distracted by the brother on the sofa who begins to leave the stage, and She turns to him, inviting him to stay, and says: I am happy someone's accompanying me. I have been lonely in the hotel room since yesterday. I hate hotel rooms-so lonely, with long corridors, no one to talk to. Whenever you walk out it's just doors, doors, and rooms, rooms. One of the reasons I don't like traveling too much is that I hate hotel rooms. I just feel so lonely in there. The soul is not lonely, just the mind gets lonely, frustrated. And it smells sometimes. If you happen to get a non-smoking room it's better. Otherwise it's not good.

So the good thing is that I have meditation. I just meditate there and go "Zzzt" and go somewhere else, leave the hotel room alone. But we need to pay nevertheless. (Master laughs). It's not that you go somewhere and the room is free. (Everyone laughs). So if we do this meditation, we can also be in two places, at least, at the same time. One is on the planet Earth and the other is in planet Heaven. You can do both things at the same time. And later, if you are more improved in your practice, you can be in many places all in one planet, and many planets in one universe, at the same time, but still in this planet; it will cost you a hotel room, if you stay in one. You can just leave your body there, and still you pay for the body. This body costs us a lot every day. Since the day we were born until I am grown this much (Master indicates with her hands), I mean, I haven't grown that much but still, until I am grown so much, so much money, effort, time and energy have been put into this body! Luckily, I am employed at a good company, doing a good job. So I am not a waste of food. (Master laughs).
