Pearls Of Wisdom
A Spaceship In The Universal Body

Spoken By Supreme Master Ching Hai
Columbia University, N.Y., U.S.A., Nov. 3, 1989 (Originally In English)

Our planet is a very beautiful, 'spaceship'. We can say 'spaceship'. It carries many sentient beings in mid air and circles around. Our planet gives us a lot of comfort and joy. It gives us a lot of treasures, and sustains our lives through many ways and means. But then we also have a little duty towards our Mother Earth, to help her to remain in such a powerful position so that she may be able to help us.

Everything we do affects everyone in this world and the next. Every religion mentions to us that all things; all beings are one in essence. Just like our body has many parts. If our hands hurt, it affects our whole body also. Just because the universal body is so great, and we the many beings in this great body cannot understand, cannot see the whole universal body, so we may not believe that our actions concern any other beings. Should we develop the kind of Celestial Eye, the Wisdom Eye, we would see this for ourselves that we are indeed connected with all beings; and then we would be very careful about what we do.

Wars and natural disasters are not always caused by geographical complications, but generated from the atmosphere of the world. When human beings treat each other unjustly and with hostility, an irritating and vicious warlike ambience is generated, and from this many disasters and wars are created.

Recently, more disasters have been happening on Earth. This is a reminder from God that we should go back to our original qualities of Truth, virtue and beauty, instead of being intoxicated in negativity. We human beings have two kinds of power, one is positive, the other negative. The positive one gives us and others comfort and bliss. This is the quality we should always maintain and develop further. If we were to be stuck in the negative sphere, the world would become more and more chaotic.

The positive power generated by our spiritual practice can avert some of the disasters in the world. We still see disasters happen as if nothing has helped. But, if we did not practice spiritually, there would be even more disasters, enough to destroy the whole planet long ago.
