Right Concepts About the QYM

..... Being a resident doesn't mean anything. Even being a Quan Yin messenger doesn't mean anything. They are just workers. They are the working staff carrying messages and repeating my teachings to other people.

..... You should respect the Quan Yin messengers, but leave them alone. Don't worship their egos, and don't damage their spiritual practice by being over infatuated or by flattering with them. You should respect their job, but not their persons. Their persons have a lot of qualities that are not worth respecting. They have a lot to learn and a lot to polish. It is very good and noble that they have this intention and do the job for you, for the Master, but it's not that they are perfect. Some are good, some are not so good, and some are bad. But, it's no problem; you should just receive initiation from the Master through them. Good, bad, ugly, beautiful, it shouldn't matter to you. There's no need to have high expectations of these people, but be understanding, because the teachings come from the Master power, not from them. So, if they're bad or good, you shouldn't care. But, don't make them worse. Don't overcoat them with sugar and honey. They'll suffocate.
