K: Hi! We’re here with Margie Evans from Los Angeles Music Week. Welcome Margie.

M: Thank you.

K: How did you come to know Supreme Master Ching Hai?

M: It was through the Musicians’ Union. They must have known Her because of all the work she had done previously. They sent me the bios on the Ocean of Love. The Supreme Master wasn’t seeking to be honored. So when I met with a lot of the staff, I shared with them that our children don’t know a thing about Her. And just seeing that video (Walk the Way of Love), I saw the reaction in this room today. Many people were sitting there who have contributed, but when they saw that video, how She works in that humble state, I bet you they went away with a lesson. So that proved my point. As with the Supreme Master, we meet no one by chance. She wants to be heard and wants to help those of us who have forgotten that giving of oneself is very fulfilling. And I watched the room when that video was shown. There was such peace and contentment. There were many people in the room who felt, “No one really cares.” And some of them would pull at me like I have all the answers. I don’t have all the answers, but I know someone Who’s got all the answers. So the Supreme Master was meant to enter this place and my life and give me hope. Because there’ve been moments in my life when I say I’m sick of giving my money to these people and that’s the way I see it. They don’t appreciate anything. So I feel good because I had watched the video before today, and I was sitting in a state of despondency. But listening to Her gave me hope. I’m telling you, I was in an emotional spin at home. Then up She came, and I looked at the video, and I’m so blessed. It’s real what I’m talking about. So when the power of God comes into a situation, He’s the greatest director I know!

K: Yes, absolutely.

M: He (God) directs Music Week, not Margie.

K: Would you mind telling me more about your feelings regarding Supreme Master’s music?

M: I heard the music. It’s peaceful. First of all, I was reading some of the poetry because the Musicians’ Union sent it to me. And when I received the CD, I took it into my bedroom. Before I go to sleep, I always try to have positive input in my mind. The Supreme Master, I share with Her with all sincerity. And as an African-American woman, I thank God that She was sent to me to help me move on into light, not feeling sorry for myself but picking myself up, using every tool I have in my life to advance. Her music is helping me to advance. Her book One World … of peace through music is also helping me to advance. So I take my position from the apostle Paul in the Bible. Whatever state I’m in, I’ve learned to be content, I know how to abase and abound (i. e., to be happy both in times of need and abundance). That’s what She’s helping me do through Her music, Her love. “Supreme Master Ching Hai, thank You for being You. For many people throughout the world you have touched, You will never know all the people, but I hope something I do in the future will show you that I have finally gotten the message.” I might not ever see Her in person but I feel Her spirit. That’s why I think of Her work. “Thank You, Supreme Master Ching Hai. Thank You for Your love. Thank You for Your peace. Thank You.”
