The Korean Festival at Seoul International Park

For the 25th Annual Korean Festival, held from October 11 to 14, 2001 in the Koreatown area of Los Angeles, local disciples prepared a lovely banner decorated with sparkling crystals and silver glitter, along with several large photos of Master, which attracted much attention.

Koreatown is on the verge of breaking into the Quan Yin Method in a very big way! 600,000 Korean Americans live in this area and are very spiritually motivated. Many investigate every type of spiritual practice that comes along. Our spiritual booth was no exception. The Korean people are very shy, so we had to approach them in a very warm way to introduce them to our Master and the Quan Yin Method. Luckily, Master's beautiful face welcomed them graciously, and hundreds of people stopped by to speak at length with fellow Korean disciples and to watch Master's videos, as well.

Over the four-day Korean Festival, we passed out thousands of flyers, sample booklets and other literature.

Summary

By the end of these three festivals, Los Angeles initiates were exhausted physically but happy to know that we had done our best to help elevate the vibrations in our area by passing out thousands and thousands of Master's photos and materials to the public, reminding them of the importance of spiritual life. If more and more people are awakened spiritually, we truly believe it can neutralize the negativity in the physical world.

Sowing the Seeds of Truth at a Vegetarian Festival

Florida initiates attend the 6th annual Vegetarian Festival, sponsored by the group Sarasota in Defense of Animals.

[Sarasota] On Sunday, October 14, 2001, Florida initiates attended the 6th annual Vegetarian Festival, sponsored by Sarasota in Defense of Animals, a local non-profit organization dedicated to defending animal rights and welfare and supporting habitat protection. The purpose of this public festival was to promote a healthy and humane lifestyle.

The festival was held on a beautiful autumn day at the Phillippi Estate Mansion, a stately venue surrounded by expansive lawns and lush foliage. The event featured music, entertainment, educational materials and a variety of related activities. Hundreds of people sampled tasty vegetarian foods provided by Sarasota restaurants, as well as scrumptious fare from the Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association.

When we arrived at the venue to set up our tables, we were pleasantly surprised to see that the organizers of the event had given us the best location in the house! Since we had the first tables in the food section, everyone who entered was greeted by a large poster of Supreme Master Ching Hai and Her video playing on TV.

We received many compliments on our vegetarian food from attendees, many of whom were strict vegetarians. We received numerous requests about how to make and obtain such delicious vegetarian foods.

Many attendees eagerly helped themselves to sample booklets and other literature at our table. People commented on Master's beauty, and asked how they could contact us to learn more about the Quan Yin Method. One woman in particular who has been a vegetarian for many years returned to our table after reading part of the sample booklet, gave us her name, and said she would contact us about learning the Quan Yin Method.

We are very grateful that we had the opportunity to be a part of this event, and that God arranged so that we had the most ideal location at the venue to sow the seeds of Truth. Fellow practitioners are now looking forward to organizing a video seminar on the Quan Yin Method in the local area.
