  In
his famous quatrain collection Les Propheties (The Prophecies),
16th-century French clairvoyant Michel De Nostredame foretold
the occurrence of numerous major world events. Experts studying
the poems state that Nostradamus predicted the Great Fire of
London, the French Revolution, World War II, and the September
11, 2001, tragedy in the United States. Thus, as the world quickly
approaches the Aquarian Age and the December 21, 2012, baktun
cycle change on the Mayan calendar, Nostradamus’ writings
are garnering much attention.
Those
researching Nostradamus’ other works are uncovering more
remarkable findings. For example, in August 2002, the US-based
newspaper Sun published Grant Balfour’s article,
“Nostradamus: I Know America’s Future!” on
a letter discovered in France. Mr. Balfour reported that a respected
panel of academic experts led by Dr. Jeanne LaFobruge concluded
that the letter contained a record of Nostradamus’ visions
about significant recent and future events in the US and elsewhere.
In
his letter, not only did Nostradamus accurately describe the
international economic recession and other important present-day
global events, he also described a new leader who would usher
our world into an “age of exploration and limitless prosperity”
lasting more than 1,000 years. The following is a condensed
collection of excerpts from the Sun article about the new leader Nostradamus described.

Nostradamus: I Know America’s Future!
By Grant Balfour
Second
Coming
| |
The rebuilding
of America’s government, Europe’s bombed cities,
and the war-ravaged Middle East will all take place thanks
to a single leader Nostradamus called “Faro.”
(1)
“He will come
from the mountains to the northeast of India, possibly Tibet,
and where he walks, prosperity follows,” LaFobruge says.
“His organization
will combine the best elements of church and state by feeding
the hungry (2) and teaching new prayer techniques.”
(3)
Although active before
the end of the War on Terror, it is only after the final victory
that this world leader’s true identity will be revealed.
“For his final
vision, what Nostradamus wrote was: ‘While bells ring
in London (4), in the time of Scorpion, the
new Jesus shows his face to all in the New World’s island
cities (5). The ocean sings – Miracle!
(6) – to behold the risen Lord,’”
says LaFobruge.
“This vision
clearly indicates several things about this mysterious Tibetan
hero. He will be in Hawaii or Puerto Rico, possibly during
a world tour. There will be a miraculous happening that will
be witnessed by the world, and it will take place in November
of 2004.
“Most importantly,
this miracle will leave no doubt that this man, Faro, is none
other than the Second Coming of Christ Himself.” |
Eternal
Youth

Once
accepted as the world’s leader, the new Messiah will
replace all governments with a scientific think-tank whose
only responsibility is to solve humanity’s problems.
“The first problem
eliminated by this so-called ‘Parliament of sages’
(7) will be human aging,” LaFobruge
says. “By 2006, they will have solved the problem –
and no one need ever grow old again. (8)
Following that
amazing discovery will be an age of exploration and limitless
prosperity for over 1,000 years. |

Notes:
(The
following views do not necessarily represent those of Sun or Mr.
Balfour.)
Nostradamus’
description of the Second Coming of Christ and Dr. LaFobruge’s
explanation of the Messiah’s mission bear a remarkable
resemblance to the noble life of the world-renowned spiritual
teacher, humanitarian and artist, Supreme Master Ching Hai,
and the work of Her Association. The following are some examples
regarding the prophecies cited in the article:
 |

Master Ching Hai in Tibetan monastic habit in Her early
years.

1.
“The rebuilding of America’s government, Europe’s
bombed cities, and the war-ravaged Middle East will all take
place thanks to a single leader Nostradamus called ‘Faro.’
He will come from the mountains to the northeast of India, possibly
Tibet, and where he walks, prosperity follows.”
Faro
in Spanish means “lighthouse” or “guiding
light.”
Supreme
Master Ching Hai achieved complete enlightenment in the Himalayas
and was in a region of India bordering Tibet before being sought
out to share Her teachings with the public.

Master
and the representatives of the governors of the six states
Chicago,
USA (February 22, 1994) |
A
recipient of the World
Spiritual Leadership Award, presented in 1994 by governors
of six states in the US, Supreme Master Ching Hai has long served
as a foremost spiritual guiding light.
Supreme
Master Ching Hai is still working to bring peace
to all parts of the world and fulfill the realizable dream of
“Heaven on Earth” for all beings.
2. “His
organization will combine the best elements of church and state
by feeding the hungry…”
Additionally,
Master and Her group have helped refugees, orphanages, and many
organizations that benefit humans, animals and the environment.
Often giving anonymously, Supreme Master Ching Hai always contributes
whatever She can at any time or in any place where help is needed.
 3.
“…teaching new prayer techniques”
Supreme
Master Ching Hai practices and shares a meditation technique
called the
Quan Yin Method, through which one can reach a deeper union
with the Creator via contemplation
of the inner Light and Sound. The inner Light, or the light
of God, is the same light referred to in the word “enlightenment.”
It shines forth as wisdom and compassion. The cosmic vibration
known as the inner Sound, being all powerful and ever present,
is also experienced as an inner melody of divine love and can
heal all wounds, fulfill all desires, and quench all worldly
thirsts. As the deepest and most effective form of real prayer,
the meditation technique taught by Supreme Master Ching Hai
thus allows a sincere spiritual aspirant to be transported to
higher realms of existence through contact with the direct teachings
of God.
4. “Bell
rings in London…”
|
London,
United Kingdom (June 9, 1999) |
Supreme
Master Ching Hai spent much time in England as a young adult
during Her university studies and became a naturalized British
citizen. In more recent years, She has travelled and resided
there often, returning
to London many times for lectures and to give initiation
to Truth seekers. During a 1999
European lecture tour, Her visit to England coincided with
the signing of the Kosovo Peace Treaty. The bells ringing in
London could well signify this newfound regional peace, as well
as welcoming the arrival of the light-bearer “Faro”
as seen by Nostradamus, the grand city’s former student,
now returning as the Master – a cause for true celebration
by all.
5. “‘…the
new Jesus shows his face to all in the New World’s island
cities’ … This vision clearly indicates several
things about this mysterious Tibetan hero. He will be in Hawaii
or Puerto Rico, possibly during a world tour.”
Responding
to requests from spiritual aspirants, Supreme Master traveled
in a
series of world tours, offering lectures on nearly every
continent. In both 1989 and 1993, Her stops included cities
such as Los Angeles, Seattle, Washington, DC, and others, located
on or near islands throughout North and South America. Lectures
were also held in New York City on the island of Manhattan,
and Mexico City, which was originally built by indigenous Aztecs
on an island in Lake Texcoco.

Supreme
Master Ching Hai was invited to speak in the US island state
of Hawaii
in 1993 and later held an international meditation retreat
there. Her selfless dedication to humanity was recognized by
the late Honorable Mayor Frank Fasi of Honolulu, Hawaii in 1993,
when She was granted honorary US citizenship and bestowed the
International
Peace Commendation. She also stayed for some time on Coconut
Island in Hawaii, and later on San Marino Island in the city
of Miami Beach, Florida as well as in southern Florida, where
many students of the Quan Yin Method were fortunate enough to
join Her in spiritual gatherings.
6. “The
ocean sings – Miracle! – to behold the risen Lord.
”
The
Supreme Master’s name, “Ching Hai,” means
“Pure Ocean” or “Clean Sea” in Chinese.
Apart from the
grace and miracles bestowed as a spiritual Master in saving
countless souls through many years of sharing the Truth, Supreme
Master is also a multi-talented artist and musician. She is
an extremely rare spiritual Master who can transform people’s
consciousness through Her uplifting talents, which include
singing, poetry, and music. Her songs and music are empowered
by a loving vibration that brings incredible healing, purification
and spiritual elevation, comforts innumerable souls’ longing
to return to Heaven. A worldwide spiritual awakening is taking
place – as when “the ocean sings,” divine
blessings flow and
miracles happen.
7. “‘Once
accepted as the world’s leader, the new Messiah will replace
all governments with a scientific think-tank whose only responsibility
is to solve humanity’s problems.… ‘Parliament
of sages’…”

In
2006, Supreme Master Ching Hai inspired the launch of Supreme
Master Television, a 24/7 internationally broadcast channel
viewed by millions of people around the world via satellite
and over 90 cable and IPTV networks in multiple languages. This
unique channel focused on constructive news and programs to
inspire peace through outstanding examples of excellence in
humanity and noble ways of living. Most notable was the channel’s
landmark coverage on practical, efficient solutions to the current
major world issue of global warming. Featured broadcasts included
live climate-change conferences, interviews with Nobel Prize-winning
and US National Aeronautic and Space Administration (NASA) scientists,
government leaders and leading environmental experts.
Throughout
the channel’s five-year broadcast, Supreme Master Ching
Hai Herself spoke frequently via televised
videoconferences with government leaders, eminent scientists,
physicians, artists, environmental protection groups, and
animal welfare organizations, offering practical solutions
and spiritual insights for addressing urgent world problems.
This unique broadcast forum transcended all governments and
national boundaries, sharing messages of peace and the collective
wisdom of renowned world experts throughout the global community,
making it truly a “Parliament of Sages.”

“…no one need ever grow old again”
Most
holy scriptures refer to the state of being “ever young”
or having “eternal life” as a level of spiritual
attainment that means one has transcended
the cycle of birth, aging and death that binds all mortals.
The Light and Sound meditation as transmitted by Supreme Master
Ching Hai promises restored awareness of the soul’s
eternal nature and complete liberation from the cycle of physical
birth and death.
Nostradamus’
prophecies were largely written as four-line poems, made
difficult to decipher through the frequent use of symbolism
and anagrams as a way to avoid possible persecution from
officials during his time. Perhaps it’s no accident
that the meaning of Nostradamus’ French name, Michel
De Nostredame, is “Michael ‘Angel’
of our Lady.” In one of his quatrains,
Nostradamus refers to himself as “the next to the
last of the surname of prophet (Le penultiesme du surnom
de prophete),” who will deliver the
impossible to a great people.
The
last four letters of his chosen Latinized name Nostradamus,
when written backwards, are “SUMA”
– a term that has been used regularly in the past
to refer to Supreme Master Ching Hai (SU: Supreme; MA: Master).
In Quatrain #3-94, he described a glorious outcome of the
new Messiah’s divine mission; that is, giving immediate
enlightenment to uplift human consciousness:
|
|
For five hundred years more one
will keep count of him,
Who was the ornament of his time,
Then suddenly great light will he give,
He who for this century will render them very satisfied.
*“Suddenly great light” =
immediate enlightenment. |
|
In
a heartfelt letter addressed to his son, Nostradamus mentioned
that his prophecies would extend from his time to the year 3797.
He explained, “This may perturb some, when they see such
a long time span, (but) this will occur and be understood in
all the fullness of the Republic; these things will be universally
understood upon Earth, my son.”
Since
the beginning of Her lectures to the public in 1988, Supreme
Master has often spoken of crossing the threshold into a
Golden Age, the 1,000-year period of exploration and limitless
prosperity envisioned by Nostradamus. Through the years, She
has worked tirelessly in both the spiritual and physical realms
to elevate the consciousness of sentient beings in preparation
for this transition, while promoting the vegan diet, compassion
for all beings and a righteous way of living. In the year 2004,
during an intensive personal retreat that lasted more than two
years, She sent several messages to Association members, informing
them of a
New Golden Era, and of the blessing by Heaven of all beings
on Earth. In one letter, She wrote:
 |
| Photo
Archive: Hungary (2005) |
“This planet
has undergone tremendous changes for improvement. Lots of purification
and blessing has been bestowed upon this world in all aspects.
Saturate yourselves with this once-in- eons-of-a-chance-love,
for it is your absolute refuge – as the cleansing is taking
effect around you. Meditation, noble precepts and unconditional
love will draw you more towards the field of positive Grace.”
A
few months later, during a February
2005 talk with fellow initiates in Hungary, She spoke again
of this promising shift for the planet: “Especially
at this time, in the transitional period when Earth is joining
all the more developed galaxies, everything is blessed and opened
for the faithful ones.” She also advised everyone
to spend more time in deep meditation during this special period.
Indeed,
the life of Supreme Master Ching Hai is the manifestation of
divine blessing. Never in history has an enlightened Master
been able to unite as many people from so many different nationalities,
cultures, and religions. As observed by the Honorable Mayor
Frank Fasi of Honolulu: “She brings love around the world
where there is hate. She brings hope where (there) is despair.
And, She brings understanding where there is misunderstanding.
She is the light of a great person, an angel of mercy for all
of us.”
As
human consciousness is being further elevated, following the
natural evolution of the whole universe, let us rejoice at this
great news about the dawn of enlightenment and the noble vision
of peace and harmony for all beings on Earth. May more and more
people be inspired by the guiding light of the “Faro”
and choose to lead lives of love and compassion. We pray that
all children of the Divine — humans, animals, plants and
other creations, live in peace and happiness together in the
paradise called Earth, as intended by God and as foretold by
the beloved prophet, Michel De Nostredame!
