[
San Jose] With
the idea of sharing Master's love and wisdom with prison inmates and
bringing them peace and comfort, fellow practitioners and Quan Yin messengers
visited a small local prison one Saturday morning in late July. In addition
to spiritual teaching materials by Master, we had also prepared some
delicious vegetarian food to be shared with everyone. Materially, we
offered blankets and bedclothes to the prison, plus twelve boxes of
clothing to the inmates.

For
the day's activity, we prepared a presentation of Master's videotapes,
a question and answer session, a refreshment period, and a chess contest.
After watching the videotapes, the inmates were very interested and
enthusiastically brought up many questions about practicing the Convenient
Method, the nature of an enlightened Master, the Holy Trinity, etc.
One of the inmates was about to be released, and he sincerely copied
down the contact information for the local Center, because he wanted
to practice the Quan Yin Method and learn Master's teachings after his
release. The atmosphere in the prison was very cordial and friendly,
with everyone suddenly becoming very lovely like an innocent child.
The
inmates' sincerity and purity shone through their yearning eyes. More
than half of the audience members requested to learn the Convenient
Method. Even when we had proceeded to the chess contest and refreshment
serving according the timetable, many of them still preferred asking
questions and requesting the Convenient Method. Everyone was very happy,
and the fellow practitioners who participated were touched by the joyous
atmosphere. Because of the gladness, the hours passed so quickly that
no one realized it when the time to say goodbye had arrived.
