★By Sister Initiate Hui, Tainan, Formosa
Ever since I started practicing the Quan Yin Method, I have kept the precepts. With the blessings of God, this year, I have not only obtained my Master's degree, but also passed a Ph.D. entrance exam with an outstanding score and been admitted into the doctoral program of a historical science institute in Formosa. The Quan Yin Method has been really powerful. I have developed my wisdom so that study has become easy for me. My master's degree thesis was the best in my class. Besides, I was the first one in the class to graduate, which surprised all of my classmates because I had to commute from Tainan to Taipei to go to university as well as work. It's not easy to graduate with such a good score, and the younger classmates who had no family responsibilities acknowledged my dedication. Practicing the Quan Yin Method has enabled me to concentrate better and become successful in my work and study. Before being admitted into the Master's degree program, I was a manager; and since I was very busy with my work, I had no time to prepare for the exam. Besides, I made a mistake one time and was publicly criticized by local newspapers. Therefore, I was depressed when I took the entrance exam. While I was demoted by my boss because of his misunderstandings, I received my report card and the news that I had been admitted into the Master's Degree program. I was so moved that I cried. Actually, I had not studied before the exam and the acceptance mark for the program was very low. So it must have been that Master knew that I had been wronged, and gave me this nice gift. I had taken the entrance exams previously, but had failed each time, although I had really studied hard and my scores were very high. It is thus evident that as long as we concentrate on the Truth, Master will arrange everything for us. The year before I graduated, I knew my work commitments would not enable me to attend lectures for two months during the second semester. Therefore, I finished all of my course work during the first semester, and at the same time applied for a waiver to miss attending lectures the next semester. I applied for it several times, but was always refused. However, on the last day of the semester, my brother suggested to me by telephone to try again. I had no hope for success, but when my brother asked me to do it again a thought suddenly arose in my mind, "Is it Master's arrangement?" Without hesitation, I quickly ran to the Dean's office. I did not expect the Dean to approve, but he did immediately. I almost cried on the spot. Fearing that the Dean would see my tears, I quickly went outside. There, I looked up into the blue sky and prayed to Master, "Thank You, Master, for this wonderful arrangement!" I felt grateful to Her for teaching me such a good method. Once we get reconnected with God, the gifts that Master gives to us are always appropriate. She did not give that gift to me earlier, but did so on the last day of the semester. Now, along with my spiritual practice, I work and study. These opportunities have all been provided by Master. I understand that returning Home to the Kingdom of God is my utmost goal. The worldly things are only to add some pleasure on my way Home; therefore, I won't let myself indulge in them and sway from the Truth.
