Letters Between Master and Disciples

Eternal God

Dear Master,

How are You?

I had the great fortune to attend the Hungary Retreat at the end of February, Golden Year 2 (2005). Now it has been more than a year since then. Time flies. But to me, it was a beautiful dream that would never end because I have been surrounded by Master’s infinite love and blessings all this time and feel incredibly blissful every minute.

The six days and six nights spent with Master were the luckiest time of my life. Whenever Master was speaking, I would focus my gaze on Your noble and merciful face with full attention. It seemed that I could never look at You enough. Sometimes, I even became oblivious to the movements and the excitement of the surrounding people and felt that between the vast winter sky and the snowy earth, there was only my soul and Yours quietly looking at each other. Master, there are no words in this world to describe the feeling at that moment.

The most unexpected thing was that I had the great fortune to receive the most precious and rare gift bestowed by You in person. I often wonder how it was possible that I deserved it!

Since I have come back from the Hungary Retreat, the small corner in the living room of my house has become my meditation spot every night. In this past year, I have completely separated from my comfortable bed, and the mediation chair I bought from Formosa has become my favorite. I am grateful to be part of this saintly group - the big Quan Yin family, leaving the bitter cycle of life and death, being free from the control of Maya, the negative force, to live eternally in Master’s Divine Light.

 

Now, my life is very peaceful, simple and happy. I do not compete with anyone, nor do I wish for anything in this world. I just practice spiritually, wholeheartedly, and look forward to the call from Heaven when the inner Master gives me the notice or a hint and allows me a few days to finish up the mundane things quickly. I would then run to the Home of my soul with Master cheerfully, with no attachments at all.

Master, I love You! You are the Eternal God of my life!

Wishing You forever healthy and beautiful!

                                         Yours truly,
