   Early this year, my second older sister gave me a copy of Master's sample booklet. Bliss filled my heart as I read it. Before that, some relatives had given me sample booklets from other masters, but I didn't have any feelings after reading them.

   Having read Master's sample booklet, spontaneously and without any pressure I began to observe a vegetarian diet and practiced the Convenient Method. However, I still could not quit my deep addiction to cigarette smoking; I used to consume several packs a day.

   One day, I noticed that Master's poster hanging on the wall in my room kept falling off even though I had affixed it with double-sided tape. A thought flashed through my mind: Could the cause be that I had been smoking in the room? I decided not to smoke in that room anymore. Hence, Master's poster didn't fall off again, and I hadn't even changed the adhesive tape! 

   I was unmindful and was blinded by my bad habit then, so I overlooked Master's loving expectation, concern and call to me! Nevertheless, She continued to take care of me while I was practicing the Convenient Method. My heart was deeply stirred and moved. Subsequently, I quit my addiction to smoking easily. Until now, that intense feeling of gratitude is still reverberating in my heart, nourishing my soul while I walk on the spiritual path.
