The
International Jewelry Exhibition was held in London, England from September
8-11. Fellow practitioners in Paris, along with their relatives, received news
that the S.M. Celestial Jewelry would be on display at the exhibition. In order
to seize this rare opportunity to see the S.M. Celestial Jewelry up close, they
set off on a special trip to London.
Surrounding the Celestial
Jewelry display cases, fellow practitioners stood in awe, exclaiming, "What
exquisite art pieces! Even the best photographers cannot capture the brilliance
of these Celestial Jewelry pieces; their radiance dazzles the eyes - the glimmering
gold contrasted with its unique shapes appeals to the visual sense.
Yes! Only when we see them
in person can we truly appreciate the wisdom, loving energy, supreme talent
and extraodinary courage, all crystallized within the Celestial Jewelry. Fellow
practitioners were satiated with the glowing colors of heaven. Their hearts
were full of joy and with wide eyes, they selected their favorite Celestial
Jewelry to try on. As souvenirs, they took pictures next to the Celestial Jewelry
booth display.
There was a French fellow
practitioner's mother who also received an invitation to attend the exhibition.
She had been busy with her career before she retired; and now that she has retired,
she is busy with housework. So she seldom has the time to read Master's books
or magazines. However, this time, she took a rare trip from Paris to London
to enjoy the Celestial Jewelry. On that day, she especially wore her Celestial
ring, "Pure Lotus, given to her by her son as a birthday gift. Her face glowing
with health and vigor, one could see that the light of heaven has already shone
into her heart. Looking at the art pieces, she felt that the Celestial Jewelry
carried a message from her far away Hometown into her soul.
A few Englishmen came to know
about Master a few days earlier through the spiritual display booths. They were
very interested in Master, the spiritual Master of the time, who happens to
also design jewelry. They especially came to visit the S.M. Celestial Jewelry
booth to see for themselves Master's works of art. They informed us that they
have never seen a spiritual Master who can use the radiance of jewelry to express
the spiritual doctrine so well.
This jewelry exhibition gathered
all the well-known jewelers together. Everyone leisurely wandered among the
booths, glancing here and there. There was a middle-aged couple hurriedly passing
through the crowd as if they had some urgent business to take care of. However,
when they passed by the S.M. Celestial Jewelry booth, the lady suddenly stopped,
turned around, pointed at the "God's Children piece in the display case, and
laughed heartily, just like a child, pure and innocent. Most people think that
gold and diamonds tap at human greed. However, the Celestial Jewelry, composed
of gold and diamonds, awakens the purity and elegance of human nature.
Two jewelry designers were
very impressed by the S.M. Celestial Jewelry. From their professional standpoint
in the jewelry business, they greatly appreciated the Celestial Jewelry. When
they were informed that Master has never had any formal training in jewelry
design, they indeed admired Her, and knew that the inspiration of Her work is
beyond this world. The S.M. Celestial Jewelry expressed extraordinary artistic
talent, combining the soul of the craftsman and the heart of the spiritual Master.
They asked for Master's sample booklet and truly wanted to learn more about
Her teachings. When they arrived at the TV booth playing Master's videotape,
they coincidentally saw Master giving Her speech at the Celestial Fashion Show,
saying, "Because Truth, virtue and beauty are manifestations of God, we cannot
say that beauty and spiritual practice are not related.
After visiting the Celestial
Jewelry exhibition, fellow practitioners happily returned to Paris. With hearts
full of gratitude, they thanked Master for introducing the beauty of heaven
here on earth, pushing us to walk forward to Truth, virtue and beauty on our
spiritual path.
