Two initiation sessions and a video seminar were conducted
for sincere Truth-seekers in Panama by a Quan Yin messenger who had
recently arrived in the country. For these occasions, many attractive
posters were printed for display in supermarkets, while leaflets were
distributed to the public.
El
Universal, the largest newspaper in Panama, charged only 25 percent
of the usual price for a large color advertisement containing information
about the seminar and introducing Master, the Quan Yin Method, and its
benefits.
RPC
Radio, one of Panama's largest broadcasting stations, interviewed us
for its comprehensive coverage of the event. During the forty-minute
program, many listeners called in to express their yearning to practice
the method of inner Light and Sound, which can help them attain peace,
contentment, and bliss. Many requested sample booklets and were asked
to pick up copies at the radio station. Thus, we delivered to the radio
station many sample booklets, magazines, and pamphlets of Master's wonderful
discourse entitled "Retrieve the Languages of God."

The
video seminar was held on January 16 in the conference room of Panama
University. Defying the customary cultural habit of arriving about an
hour late for any event, the audience came early that day, and the conference
room was filled to capacity before the seminar's starting time of 6:00
PM. The great sincerity and yearning of the guests was obvious, and
as they continued to arrive, more chairs were added until the venue
was completely packed.
As
a result, the air-conditioning could not cope with the large audience
and many people perspired profusely. Nonetheless, the guests attentively
watched Master's wonderful lecture. After the video showing, almost
all of the audience members expressed an interest in switching to a
vegetarian diet. Many registered to learn the Convenient Method, and
some requested initiation into the Quan Yin Method. Due to the overwhelming
response, the seminar ended an hour later than scheduled, with everyone
being reluctant to leave.

After
the seminar, we invited the would-be initiates to join the weekly Convenient
Method group meditation at our Center. They left their contact information,
hoping that we would keep in touch. The next evening, more than one
fellow practitioner noticed an extraordinarily bright and beautiful
light shining through the clouds! We firmly believed that it was an
auspicious sign. Master once said that, although spiritual practitioners
are few in number, their influence is infinitely far-reaching. We are
happy that many Panamanian people sincerely want to practice spiritually.
We are grateful for the earnest support of the local press and radio
stations in spreading the news about the seminar, and to many supermarkets
for displaying Master's posters. With such enormous support and the
deep devotion of so many people, the sky over Panama will definitely
shine brightly in the future!
