Sometimes we can turn problems into joy, turn 
          nuisances or burdens into beauty. For example, I normally wouldn't have 
          this outfit. (Master indicates the vest and skirt ensemble She is wearing.) 
          And I didn't think of making a new one since I had already designed 
          so many the last time, and I haven't worn or even tried them all on 
          yet. But someone, I don't know who, slipped this jacket inside my room. 
          I think it was one of our ex-nuns, who wanted to show the sincerity 
          of her repentance for leaving me alone in the desert with the flowers. 
          So she probably went out and bought this vest and threw it inside my 
          window one day. But when I saw it, I said, "Oh, my God! How can 
          I wear this?" (Master and everyone laugh.) Because she only bought 
          this, so what did that mean? Can I wear it like this (the vest only) 
          to go to group meditation? I can't. Maybe I might do it one day and 
          shock you all out of your shoes. But I don't have that inspiration yet 
          so be prepared.  
        So I kept thinking, "What can I do with it?" 
          because I didn't have any clothes to go with it. Most of my clothes 
          are conservative, just a tunic and white trousers; that's it. Then a 
          jacket to cover the "must-cover" places, (Master jokes) so 
          that people think I'm a moral, ethical and very good practitioner, very 
          enlightened and so on.
        So now I didn't have any clothes to wear with this kind 
          of vest. And I couldn't wear it alone. But first of all, I couldn't 
          throw it away because it was already there. Second, it was too small; 
          I wouldn't know who to give it to since I'm the smallest size in our 
          group - maybe the "biggest," but also the smallest. So it 
          just became like a burden and was lying around for some time. And then 
          I said, "OK, we can make clothes to go with it, and then make use 
          of it." And the result is that today it's very pleasing to your 
          eyes, but it was a burden before. So we can turn a burden into a joy, 
          and not just for me alone; all of you can enjoy it.
