Under the watchful eyes of the public, the annual international book exhibition in Malaysia raised its curtains. It was a very meaningful event, and many renowned academic and cultural organizations participated.
Our booth was located in a corner, so it was like having a double front. With smart decorations, especially a large photo of Master meditating in the Center, it was the focus of attention. Both men and women, young and old, regardless of nationality, race or religion could not help stopping to admire it.
Master's aphorisms in Her lecture shown on video injected a cool stream into the souls of those who were eager and thirsty. Many people stood there for a long time, reluctant to leave. Some even put their ears next to the screen, in order to listen more clearly to the eternal and constant Truth of the Universe. Noticing the enthusiasm displayed by the guests, fellow initiates hurried to find some small stools for their convenience.
A sister initiate went to buy some books at another booth. As she went to pay for the books, she found that the person in charge of the booth was absorbed in reading one of Master's news magazines. Then she noticed that Master's reference materials were to be found in almost every booth. So all the participants of the exhibition had come to our booth!
All the guests who visited us were naturally attracted by Master. For example, when a couple of very healthy, active young boys saw the various photographs of Master, they suddenly quietened down, looked at the photographs attentively and then spontaneously put their palms together and bowed to pay respect.
After looking at Master's photographs for a while, a middle aged lady, who brought four children with her, said to herself, "This is a living Buddha."
The moment a Hindu yogi saw the photographs of Master, he said, "I like this Master very much. I know that She has attained perfect enlightenment!"
A fellow initiate asked him, "How do you know that?"
He replied, "I can see Her light." (At the same time he made a hand gesture of waving light.)
The yogi continued to study Master's teachings in front of the booth, and repeatedly said that it was the happiest day of his life.
Another Hindu especially brought his Sikh friend over to watch the videos of Master's lectures. The Sikh friend kept putting his thumbs up, and both of them praised Master's teachings highly.
Some Malaysian compatriots from afar invited their friends to buy Master's books, but they did not know their way to the exhibition. When they asked a passer-by for directions, it turned out that the person was our neighbour. Our neighbour took them to our meditation Center, where they bought the books they wanted. As long as one is sincere in one's search for the Truth, Master will definitely not neglect them.
After reading some information about Master's lectures, one of the guests began to discuss the problems on his mind. Through the video that was showing, Master coincidentally answered his questions, and this made his very happy. It also verified that Master's teachings are living scriptures.
The security personnel were also attracted by the laughter and humour in Master's lectures, so much that they forgot their duties. There was one cleaner, who stood before the booth, bathed in Master's loving power. Not until he was hurried by his partner did he reluctantly leave.
Some friends from the U.S.A. repeatedly praised Master, saying She was dignified and beautiful. Friends from nations such as Monaco and India requested more sample booklets to take home for their friends. They also said that they would contact their nearest Centers immediately after they returned to their countries.
