The Deep Affection Between Master

And Disciples In Paris

Report From France

After Her trip to Africa, Master passed through Paris, France. Hearing the good news, fellow initiates immediately assembled at Terminal One at De Gaulle Airport to welcome their most beloved Master.

Wearing a traditional Au Lacese gown, Master stepped out of the airport with Her attendants, and greeted the waiting fellow practitioners. She distributed packets of candy and biscuits to them and also to some tourists and airport staff who were attracted to Master.

After a brief rest at the hotel, Master went to the Paris Center to visit the fellow practitioners as per their earnest request. Situated in the suburbs of Paris, the Center was only purchased early this year. After the renovation and reconstruction, the residential compound was transformed into an ideal place for spiritual practice and for spreading Master's teachings. The Publications Office was originally a garage; the front block has been turned into a meditation hall; two rooms in the rear block serve as the office and computer room; and a toilet and storeroom have been built in the courtyard. The more complicated renovations were completed by professionals, while the remaining tasks were all done by fellow initiates. In choosing building materials and in the process of building the new Center, fellow practitioners have personally experienced Master's guidance and blessing.

Upon entering the courtyard, Master observed the neatly planted trees and flowers, the pond, and the water-lilies. She was delighted and said, "You have a beautiful Center!"

The Publications Room displayed Master's books, video tapes, audio tapes, photos, and News magazines. There were even handicrafts from Hsihu hanging on the walls. Master was glad to see such a beautiful Publication Room serving the disciples.

Ever since the new Center was completed, the fellow initiates in Paris had been expecting Master to come and bless the place. Now, Master has fulfilled their wish by going all that way to see the initiates, despite the arduous journey.

After She had viewed the new Center, Master said with deep meaning, "Now that you have your own Center, you have your own home." Fellow initiates understood very well that it was Mother Master who built this home for Her children, so that they can savour the warmth within the Quan Yin family. Through loving concern and humble toleration towards each other, they will learn to love their neighbors and even their enemies, and to love the world and the universe.

The Paris Center has been set up for over two years, and each fellow practitioner can notice the changes in themselves. Besides developing their compassion, they are also more disciplined and compliant.

In Her discourse, Master again stressed the incredible benefits of group meditation that will come to each spiritual practitioner, the immediate surroundings and even to the whole world. She said that any person, in doing anything, will need spiritual support and encouragement. To the spiritual practitioners, group meditation provides a gigantic vibrational field and power. It is also an opportunity for them to learn from, to support and to encourage, each other.

The next evening, a group meditation session and an initiation were held at the Center, where Master personally blessed each of the new initiates.

On the third day, when initiates were meditating in the hall, Master again appeared at the Center. She did not disturb anyone, but sat quietly on Her seat and meditated with the disciples. Graced by Master's blessing, everyone was immersed in a sea of loving vibration. After the meditation, Master gave an explicit speech; expounding profound teachings with light and humorous words. Everyone laughed happily, and then sank into deep reflection.

Master then left the meditation hall and walked into the courtyard, followed by the disciples. No worldly language could describe their reluctance to part. The air was a little bit cool that late summer night. In contrast to the revelry of Paris at night, this place was quiet and peaceful. The tranquillity made Master's low whisper especially clear. The words She whispered were: "I love you all", which transformed into shimmering stars overlooking the Parisian night sky.
