141/Panorama of Events/ Report from Bulgaria

[Sofia] On November 10, 2002, the Bulgarian Yoga Association held a seminar in the capital city of Sofia, and invited representatives of various spiritual paths, such as the Transcendental Meditation group, disciples of the Indian guru Sri Chinmoy, the Hari Krishna organization, and the Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association of Bulgaria. Each group was granted one hour to conduct a lecture.

To begin his lecture, the representative of the Association briefly introduced Supreme Master Ching Hai's teachings to the participants. Then a videotape in Bulgarian introducing the Quan Yin Method was presented. During the activity, the audience members showed great interest in the video, and asked many spiritual questions about Master and the Method.

In the front of the hall, disciples had arranged Master's books, audio cassettes and video tapes in a stall for the visitors' perusal. While the publications and tapes were being exhibited, Master's "Buddha's Chanting" tape was played continuously in the background. Many attendees stopped in front of the book stall to request free sample booklets and flyers with the Association's address and contact information.

Disciples from the cities of Sofia and Plovdiv took part in the seminar, and everyone was satisfied with the successful presentation and happy to see many Truth-seekers showing interest in Supreme Master Ching Hai and the Quan Yin Method.
