"To
Deliver Others Is To Liberate Ourselves"
[Auckland] Since the
beginning of this year, initiates at the Auckland Center have done a series
of activities to promote Master's teachings. They hoped that they could
disseminate Master's teachings to every level of society, allowing more
people to know about the Quan Yin Method.
Initiates participated in "The First New Zealand Spiritual
Expo" at which many spiritual groups set up booths. The Expo was held
at Auckland City's Lakeside Convention Center. In a vast grassland, initiates
set up a huge tent. They displayed a large eye-catching banner, which
read "Quan Yin Method," and Master's stately portrait that could be seen
from far away. Many interested visitors came to have a closer look.
In the booth there was a beautiful array of sample booklets,
books, News magazines, audio and video tapes, et cetera. People were happily
surprised to learn that many of these things, including initiation, were
free. Many of them stated: "In the commercialized modern society, everything
is for economic gain, and it is incredible to see that such a great method
and beautiful books are all free." Master once said, "the Truth is priceless."
Remembering this, we were even more moved.
All the initiates who participated in the activity noticed
that in the past, initiates had pro-actively distributed books to people;
however this time, people requested books on their own initiative and
their eagerness was greater than before. This shows that more and more
people are interested in spiritual cultivation.
The second activity initiates participated in was the "Asia
Festival" organized by the city's ethnic communities. On the first day,
they showed tapes of Master's lectures, the "Worldwide S.M Celestial Clothes
Fashion Show" and displayed Master's books. On the second day, initiates
demonstrated the making of vegetarian dumplings to promote the benefits
of a vegetarian diet. The dumplings were served to visitors for free.
The atmosphere was warm and many visitors established an affinity with
Master.
After several consecutive activities, many initiates realized
from their experiences that participating in Master's work made them progress
quickly spiritually. They also felt Master's strong blessing power. A
would-be initiate said that he was unable to calm his mind to do the Convenient
Method before, but during the whole week after participating in Master's
work, he felt a lot of blessing while he meditated and therefore made
great progress. He expressed firmly that he wanted to continue practicing
and hoped that he could be initiated soon.
Master once said, "To deliver others is to liberate ourselves."
Through these activities, we now have a deeper understanding of Her words.
