Spoken By Supreme Master Ching Hai in Taipei, Formosa
March 3, 1990 (Originally In Chinese)

Why is the Quan Yin Method so powerful? Because it opens up the vital point inside, allowing us to become one with our master, to become one with God. We allow our own self, God or Buddha nature, to come out to take care of our daily living, to come out to educate us, to remind us of who is our original self, and to remind us of the wisdom inside. That is why it is so powerful! To call gods, ghosts, monks, masters or whoever the highest instructor to teach us, will never be as good as to call upon ourselves to teach ourselves.

Spoken By Supreme Master Ching Hai At The 7-Day Retreat in Hsihu, Formosa July 1989 (Originally In Chinese)

Why do we have to serve others as slaves? Why are we not liberated from transmigration life after life? It is because we bind ourselves. We are too weak and cowardly, and cannot think of any new things. We can only repeat other people's opinions, worship their ideas, and follow their directives. Our spirit is not fresh and lively; we didn't seek our own path; we have no self-confidence.

If you really want anything, Master will help you. There is nothing that the Master wouldn't give you, if you sincerely want it, and without feeling guilty or shameful. Just ask for it sincerely. For most of us, we want to demand many things, but we do not ask for them clearly. We do not ask truthfully; we don't have the courage and sincerity; we are bound by preconceptions, so we dare not make the demand. Even when we do ask for it, we feel guilty and shameful, so we cannot get the benefit. Whatever we want, ask for it distinctly. Knowing that we have the right to make the demand, that we are entitled to it. Then it is all right. We really will get it, very simply, easily and smoothly.
