Master’s Wonders

 

A Perfectly Arranged Initiation

After my husband and I received Convenient Method transmission in May 2003, we began to eagerly await initiation. During this period, I often dreamt of Master and how She always blessed me and strengthened my faith in various ways. However, as the days went by, we became increasingly anxious and sometimes could not help but ask Master in our hearts, “You said You would give us initiation. Why is there no news yet?” In my heart, I understood that we should introspect and be more patient, and that Master would definitely make the best arrangement and give us initiation at the most appropriate time. However, when I was alone, I would weep in front of Master’s photo like a lost child who could not find her mother.

Then one night in March of this year, I dreamt that a brother-initiate had come to inform us, “You may receive initiation now.” Upon waking, I wanted to relate this wonderful dream to my husband, who was as anxious as I was to be initiated. However, he had already gone to work. Later that morning, he called me excitedly on the telephone, saying, “I was informed that there will be an initiation on the morning of March 16 in a nearby country. Go quickly to have your photo taken and get all the procedures completed at the travel agency. We have only one week to spare!” I could hardly believe my ears, went immediately to have my photo taken and then rushed to see my husband. Overwhelmed with bliss, he told me, “God’s power is indeed inconceivable. My company has arranged for me to attend a meeting from March 12 to 15 in the country where the initiation will be held, and they insisted that I go. Since the situation was urgent I had to ask the travel agency to get a tourist visa to the appropriate city for me. Even the air ticket is for that city. After attending the meeting there, I’ll have enough time to get the initiation on March 16. Everything has been seamlessly arranged! It took my dumb brain quite a while to figure the situation out. My visa is almost ready even though I only just received the notification about the initiation.” Very soon, I also got my airline ticket and visa through the travel agency.

On our initiation day, my husband and I were watching one of Master’s lecture videos while awaiting screening by a Quan Yin messenger. When we heard choral singing by fellow initiates on the video, we both wept silently as our hearts were stirred with mixed emotions — the joy of finding an enlightened Master, longing to see Her, the pain that we felt for Master in bearing karma for sentient beings, and uneasiness about passing the initiation screening.

Despite our anxiety, the screening and subsequent initiation went smoothly, and my husband and I are now deeply grateful to Master for Her love and blessing in allowing us to be spiritually reborn on March 16, 2004. On that auspicious day, Master severed the shackles of transmigration for us, and guided us on our way back Home.
