Report From The Solomon Islands Master's Teachings Are Spread All Over The Solomon Islands

<Honiara> In recent years there has been little rainfall on the Solomon Islands, creating great difficulties in the drought affected regions. However, to everyone's delightful surprise, it began to rain on the afternoon of the first day of an annual exhibition where Master's teachings were introduced. In fact, the rain did not stop until late that night. The rain had not only relieved the drought in the water-shortage areas, but also had eliminated the dustiness at the exhibition venue.

Each day various videotapes of Master's lectures were played at the exhibition. Large crowds always watched the tapes whenever they were being played. Moreover, visitors packed the entrance of our booth. When children heard the song "Go! Go! Go!" during the Celestial Clothes Fashion Show tape, they danced and clapped. Everyone's heart was united in harmony by Master's love; people danced and ascended to heaven in their hearts.

After watching Master's tapes, a gentleman claimed repeatedly that Master would change him. He eagerly left his address because he wanted to receive the News magazines and a sample booklet. A Christian man highly praised Master's teachings and fully supported vegetarianism. He said that many Christians were vegetarians as well, and commented that it was correct. Another man from a very large local Christian organization said that their doctrine is very consistent with Master's teachings. For instance, they had strict rules for those who joined, such as refraining from eating crab and shrimp, and from drinking alcohol and smoking. After reading Master's sample booklet, he expressed his desire to learn how to meditate, and also fully agreed with vegetarianism.

Through word of mouth, news spread that there was a Formosan lady (the Quan Yin messenger) spreading the Truth, so during the exhibition almost all the local Chinese people came to visit our booth. Even though the exhibition only lasted for a few days, it offered an opportunity for people from all over the Solomon Islands to hear about the teachings of a true Master.

Many people, particularly some students, loved the pictures of Master in Her various outfits. After offering them the pictures, seeing that they would treasure them, they happily accepted them reassuring us that they would value them greatly. Each day, crowds of children came to see the pictures of Master and recited Her name at the same time. Their faces looked so pure. It is true that heaven belongs to innocent children.

Everyone's first reaction when they saw Master's pictures was that they were of movie stars or pop singers. Upon learning that they were of one person, they became even more surprised, and kept asking the Quan Yin messenger: "How can this be possible?" Gradually, after acquiring some knowledge about Quan Yin meditation and Master's teachings, they showed great interest in it, commented that it was new to them, and expressed their desire to read more of Master's books. Seeing the young generation was so open to Master's teachings, one would really feel that the future of these islands would be positive.
