Spiritual Improvement
in Bolivia through Master's Teachings
Teachers
and students in a school in Bolivia are highly interested in Master's
teachings. |
In April
we also held a conference in Saint Germain High School, Cochabamba,
Bolivia. |
In early May, a group of spiritual aspirants
visited us and requested Convenient Method training. |
[Santa
Cruz] A Quan Yin messenger arrived in Bolivia in March to teach
the Convenient Method. Many sincere people, who had been longing to learn
the Convenient Method for months, finally received what they were waiting
for. The Quan Yin messenger stopped in five different cities in Bolivia,
including Santa Cruz, La Paz, Cochabamba, Suere and Trinidad.
Local
people who received Convenient Method training and attended informational
sessions about Master's teachings were not very rich in worldly possessions.
But they all showed a high level of sincerity and were very eager to start
following a vegetarian diet in order to receive initiation into the Quan
Yin Method. Naturally, most of them had wonderful inner experiences once
they received Convenient Method training. During the sessions, they also
received many vegetarian recipes that they could use for their new diet.
Some of them qualified to receive initiation right away since they had
been pure vegetarians without eating eggs for quite a long time. Therefore,
a program was planned for initiation in four cities.
Among the new initiates
was a principal of a school in Cochabamba who has been a vegetarian for
ten years. In addition to his teaching job, he also practices Naturopathy.
With great enthusiasm, he organized a conference for the students in his
school to learn about Master's teachings. The school is divided into two
sections, so one lecture was organized for the group of students attending
in the morning, and another for those attending in the afternoon. At both
lectures, all students were very enthusiastic. Some even helped to prepare
materials for the lectures.
Many
students and some teachers (including the principal) attended the conference.
They watched Master's videotape and showed great interest in knowing more
about Master. Many of them asked interesting questions during the Q&A
session. Many attendees also filled out application forms. Most of them
asked for the Convenient Method while others wanted to subscribe to our
magazine. Several directly requested initiation.
At
the conference there was a chemistry teacher from another school who was
also a leader of a group of University students organized around the topic
of spiritual development. He had recently learned the Convenient Method
and frequently helps Master's association. Once the University students
heard about Master, all of them applied for the Convenient Method. This
teacher is also very motivated to look for a place and establish a local
Center for group meditation in Cochobamba. |
