Early
on the morning of May 1, 1993, I left England for Munich, Germany with
firm, unwavering determination to receive initiation from Master and search
for the long-yearned-for Truth. Before I embarked on the journey, I reminded
myself that if I missed this opportunity, it would be eons before the next
opportunity came.
Family
influence since childhood had made me a pessimistic and sentimental person.
My father suffered many business failures. My mother was weak and often sick.
Therefore, I had to take on the dual responsibility of caring for my mother
and helping with family finances. I became a teacher and was transferred from
a coastal district of Formosa to the mountainous area and then to the western
plains. In just a few short years, I had taught at quite a number of schools.
Then I got married and shortly after became a mother, and in order to help
my husband fulfill his long-time wish, I accompanied him to England for further
studies.
Being
always on the move made me realize the ephemeral nature of life.
As well,
my experience with caring for my mother in the hospital filled me with fear
about coming back to this world again. Before I learned about Master's teachings,
however, no one could free me of my fear.
When
the plane landed, I awoke from my thoughts and came back to reality. The distant
and strange city of Munich was before me. With only the word "initiation"
on my mind, I had no idea how I got through customs, stepped out of the airport,
boarded a train, and finally took a taxi to my destination. It must have been
an arrangement by Master's great power. Otherwise, with my broken English,
things could not have gone so smoothly.
After
I got out of the taxi, I felt a quietness around me. The air was still. In
this strange place where I didn't even know the language, I was standing on
the street alone. I held Master's sample booklet in one hand and a piece of
paper with the local contact person's address in the other. I suddenly felt
very lonely and hesitant. I asked myself, "Can I really receive initiation?"
I began to fret and feel doubtful. The more I thought about it, the more scared
I became. That feeling made me more nervous than holding my breath while watching
a horror movie.
Finally,
I arrived in front of the building where the local contact person lived. Suddenly
the sound of an opening door raised my hopes. I saw a woman hurrying down
the stairs. She seemed to sense that someone was staring at her and slowed
her steps. She walked down the stairs with uncertainty while I was about to
walk up with the sense of uneasiness. Our eyes met! Time and space just stopped
right there and then!
She was
a classmate that I hadn't seen for years! She had come with Master on the
lecture tour. What was so hard to believe was that her alarm clock was late
by an hour in waking her up. Astonishment and joy were written on our faces.
We hugged each other. From my childhood to adulthood, that was the first time
that I had felt God's infinite love so deeply. I fully believe that Master
is always beside me helping me.
That
was five years ago. Thanks to Master, I have been reborn. The sentimental
and miserable person that I was has completely disappeared. She has been replaced
by a joyous, optimistic new me. Practicing the Quan Yin Method has made me
realize my own worth and broken the shackles that had kept me chained for
eons.
Heaven
is very near and the Golden Age is approaching. Please let us practice more
diligently and remind ourselves constantly to share the Truth, virtue, and
beauty in this heaven on Earth. Thank You again, Master!
