Pearls of Wisdom
Spoken by Supreme Master Ching Hai, Hsihu, Formosa,
July 11, 1995 (Originally in English) Videotape #488
It’s funny. When we practice
the Quan Yin Method, sometimes our shapes change. Some fat people became
slimmer; some skinny people become rounder—not fat, but fulfilled,
more filled out.
Many things like this happen.
And sometimes it happens right after initiation. So the person who comes
in and the person who comes out, you hardly recognize. Myself, I don’t
recognize! After initiation, he looks totally different, like another
person: more lovable, and closer, like a long-time friend. It’s very
funny; I’ve noticed this many times.
So sometimes people think, “How
come Master doesn’t know me? I just came to say ‘hallo’ to
Her a few days ago, and now it looks like she doesn’t remember.”
I do remember, but just a different person! You change; the chemical
substances in the body change, too. We renew our tissues and our cells.
And the structure of our thinking becomes different, even though you
might not notice it because here you don’t have the opportunity to
use it. But when you go home, or if the opportunity arises for you to
solve the same problem, you will see that so many fresh ideas have developed
overnight. And then you know what has happened to you.

In Heaven above, they heal with
Light instead of with medicine. I think, perhaps we will also heal illness
with similar light in the future. There are also some illnesses that
can be cured by sound, say like music. This method we are practicing
includes the Light and the Sound, and through it many agonies and pressures
are minimized naturally, and eventually disappear. We are originally
highly intelligent beings. However, in this world, we are excessively
oppressed, and have no time to rest. Even when we find time to rest,
we don't know the proper way. Outings and activities simply tire us
even more after we spend much money. We just feel even more uncomfortable.
Now, we have the time to practice spiritually, and the power of Light
and Sound that heals all illnesses, and we also have wisdom. In serenity,
we can find our original wisdom, so it is simply natural that we are
becoming better and better.
Ordinary people, after being
loaded with heavy work, go for a rest by the seaside or in the mountains
for a while, if they can afford it. Then they feel refreshed and are
ready to carry on with their work. However, it is much better that we
have a brief rest each day than taking a week off after a long time.
Our two and a half hours' meditation is our everyday rest. Besides resting,
we are also saving our life! The Light and Sound purify our mentality,
bodily cells, etc. So the more we practice, the younger and more comfortable
we feel, and most illnesses disappear.

When we meditate on the Sound,
our internal vibrations change, new concepts emerge, and new cells are
born. We seem to be born anew, and this is the system of "rejuvenation".
Anyone who meditates diligently
will definitely have their body and mind changed, as well as their thinking.
They will feel as if they have been born anew. There is no better way
than meditation. Thus, if we want to be liberated from birth and death,
alleviate suffering and help the world, we must first meditate and cleanse
our karma so that we know how to properly help others.
