During
Master's 1993 world lecture tour, one brother initiate almost became a "non-sleeping
general". In the daytime, he had to arrange things like renting lecture halls
and distributing advertisements. At night he had to make plans and contacts
for the next stop. Sometimes he was not able to have a good night's sleep
for half a month. After having survived the trip, he realized that Master
had used these experiences to help him break through the limitations of the
physical body and that the limit he had to break through was actually the
ego that his mind had created. He came to understand that only when one realized
that devotion was one's goal in life was one able to attain true peace and
happiness.
When Master
trains a person, She keeps giving work and setting deadlines until the work
is done well. That experience helped the brother initiate to break through
various obstacles. He also came to realize that when one has a desire, one
has concepts and then one needs to break through the concepts; and when one
has no desire, one has no concepts and hence surpasses one's obstacles. This
is the so-called "renunciation" referred to by the Buddhists.
