A Year End Party
At The Old Folks Home

By Supreme Master Magazine Reporter Su Mei-Chen, Chiayi, Formosa

To carry on with the "convey warmth in the cold winter" activities, fellow practitioners from Chiayi delightfully visited the Ji Mei Benevolent Home, to hold a warm and lively Year End Party for the old folks there. Fellow practitioners who were assigned to perform were grateful to Master for giving them this opportunity to spread love to those in need.

The Year End Party began with a chorus singing "Green Mountain High". The little initiates all dressed-up enhanced the festive mood of the occasion. Their cute and lively actions and innocent expressions amused the old folks so much that they continuously took photos of them. These little angels injected a new childish heart into the seniors, which made them laugh heartily.

At appropriate moments, the host would recite some of Supreme Master Ching Hai's aphorisms, or repeat some jokes told by Her. In a lighthearted and joyful way, Master's words of wisdom were infused into the hearts of the old folks.

Reporters from the Ju Lo Mountain in Chiayi also came to cover the event, and the footage was broadcasted that evening. The reporter Jiang Hua-Ting expressed that, she had read Master's News magazines and watched Her videos. Greatly impressed by, and in agreed with she easily understood and accepted Master's teachings. She thought that it was very valuable for such a good spiritual group to mingle with all walks of life, thus allowing more people to understand Master's "simple but profound" teachings.

Superintendent Yan of the Ji Mei Benevolent Home was very grateful to the fellow practitioners for finding time to entertain the seniors. He said that it was the most lively and splendid occasion, and he sincerely hoped that our group would visit them more often.

After the gathering, fellow practitioners distributed to each senior Master's magazines and some snacks. Watching the old folks leave with contentment and bright smiles on their faces, fellow practitioners deeply realized that the Quan Yin Method is truly the greatest method! It is a method that "benefits others and ourselves," and that opens our wisdom and our latent talents. So true are Master's words: "The more we contribute, the faster we will progress." Apart from being a great spiritual Master, Supreme Master Ching Hai is also an educator and artist of life.

Stepping out of the Home, the wind was chilly, yet our hearts were warm.
