Supreme Master Ching Hai's European Lecture Tour not only allowed us to feast our eyes on Her graceful form, but also granted us a chance to be close to Her, which truly delighted us. I find it very difficult to describe my feelings about Her boundless love with my limited earthly language.

I had heard of the heavy load of Master's work before. But this time, I saw it with my own eyes and realized what a great selfless sacrifice a Master has to make. Master worked day and night during the tour. With Her supreme wisdom, She attended to numerous affairs, large and small. She carried out what others neglected; She moved on when others fell back. Through Her, we came to understand omniscience and omnipresence. Her love permeated every cell of our bodies. She knew our hearts. When She threw us a glance or a word, which was always exactly what we needed, She actually gave us a key to open any strictures or knots in our hearts.

Busy as Master was, She perfectly attended to each of us. When it was time for breakfast, the immediate thought that came to Her mind was to invite the driver who had delivered the meal to have breakfast with Her. When taking a group picture, Master did not forget to have another one taken with the fellow initiate who had served as photographer. After driving for hours Herself on freeways, and hurrying to a consulate to apply for a visa to the next country on Her lecture tour, She first thought of arranging a place for fellow initiates to rest and eat. She, of course, had not even grabbed a bite of food, which was already cold. Such incidents were too numerous to record completely. Master, like an attentive mother, took care of us in all aspects.

Since my initiation into the Quan Yin Method, I have been in the best care of Master. Every time I have stumbled, She has forgiven me with Her understanding love and helped me to regain my footing. When I have run into small obstacles, I have lost my faith, made complaints and wrapped myself in ego, severing my connection with Master and the universe.

In striking contrast, Master, with Her petite, delicate body, took up the challenge of the world. Through self-sacrifice, She brought comfort and hope to humankind. From this, I have learned a lesson. We are bound to succeed and to walk on the correct path as long as we persistently hold a positive attitude in any circumstance, treat others with genuine love, and remember that we are vehicles of God. Then we will become one with Master and the universe, thus finding tranquillity, satisfaction and absolute happiness. This will also be what people perceive and share with us, the blessed, anywhere we go.
