A Little
Message:
In speaking of God or the Supreme Spirit, Master instructs us to use original
non-sexist terms to avoid the argument about whether God is a She or a He.
She + He = Hes (as in Bless)
Her + Him = Hirm (as in Firm)
Hers + His = Hiers (as in Dears)
Example: When God wishes, Hes makes things happen according to Hiers
will to suit Hirmself.

The Supreme Master Ching Hai News
magazine is published on the Internet in the following languages:
Aulacese, Chinese (in both traditional and simplified versions), English,
French, German, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Mongolian, Spanish, Portuguese and
Thai. Please refer to the " Quan
Yin WWW Sites" of the News magazine for related websites.
As a creator of artistic designs as well as a spiritual teacher, Supreme Master
Ching Hai loves all expressions of inner beauty. It is for this reason that She
refers to Vietnam as "Au Lac" and Taiwan as "Formosa." Au Lac is the ancient
name of Vietnam and means "happiness." And the name Formosa, meaning
"beautiful," reflects more completely the beauty of the island and its people.
Master feels that using these names brings spiritual elevation and luck to the
land and its inhabitants.
