The
lecture began at 3pm. When Master first appeared inside the lecture
hall, a Scottish initiate greeted Her with a traditional Scottish bagpipe
tune. Master and everyone else really enjoyed the performance. She said
that it sounded like "Home" (Heaven), because the bagpipe sound is the
highest one in the Kingdom of God. She continued saying that the Scottish
ancestors must have known this, and that's why they came up with an
instrument to make a sound similar to that of the Kingdom of God.
She
said that we were with God "before" creation. After we descended to
this physical world, stayed here too long and reincarnated over many
eons, we lost the telephone line that is connected directly to God!
Master offered to repair our phone line for us to reconnect us to God
again, if we sincerely wanted to know God and were ready to go home.
After
the lecture, the initiation and Convenient Method training were given
in the same room. The would-be initiates waited patiently for the Convenient
Method training to be finished. When the new Convenient Method people
walked out, one lady, who had enjoyed the bliss of a half taste of enlightenment,
decided to stay behind and ask Master to let her be initiated fully,
although she had not registered beforehand! What a lucky one! Since
Master was present, She gave her the permission to stay.
Master said that the
new initiates could come to Dublin or London to ask Her questions or
even attend the 3-day retreat, because She didn't know when She would
be back in Europe again. Master agreed that at the end of this century,
due to the treme
ndous grace of God, there seems to be a push to make
people look for more spirituality in their lives, especially among Westerners
who love "beef" so much, but are willing to sacrifice to practice the Quan Yin Method.
