the way TO SAVE THE EARTH FROM DOOMSDAY
Japan Airport on September8, 1994.Be A Saviour ToThe World I feel much more relaxed in Japan this time. You havebeen initiated for a longer time now! You have also practicedand meditated diligently, purifying yourself. This is very helpfulto the atmosphere of Japan. We are helping the world in this way,so I say you are the saviours of the world. In this world, manyof our brothers and sisters have forgotten their original duties,forgotten their Buddha nature, the quality of God. Instead, theyhave done many harmful things to the world, to the universe. Ifeveryone were doing so, and doing nothing to counter balance,our world would be in great calamity. Many mishaps have alreadyhappened, but more disastrous ones are yet to come. Until now,these calamities are affecting mostly one country or part of acountry. Should everybody keep on disregarding spiritual practiceas before and doing bad deeds instead, neglecting other people'slife and feelings, and ignoring human rights, greater disasterswill happen, even affecting the whole globe. Without using miraclepowers, we can see into the future. We can know it without usingmiracle powers, because it is logical, it is cause and effect.
Many of the so-called clairvoyantsand prophets anticipated that many grave disasters would simultaneouslyhappen in the world. In different countries and different ages,different people have had the same vision. Those people couldreally see into the future, they were not remarking casually.There have been such persons in many countries in all ages. Theywere not rare. However, perhaps we are practicing well. Our practitionersare in many countries, setting up big group meditation centers.Grouping together, our power is very strong. So, I think the worldcan still be saved. If we sincerely pray for something together,or practice together, we can generate an enormous atmosphere ofpeace, and it will have a great effect. It is not limited to thatspecific place. For example, there is no river in your land, but there are rivers inother places. The water in the rivers and seas would be evaporatedto become steam, and then become rain. Subsequently, your landwill also be affected. Another example: you may have run intotrouble today on the road or in a certain place, you may havehad a car accident or another accident. Then, you met two verycompassionate people who cared and helped you, making you feelloved, safe and very comfortable. Later, you left when everythingwas alright, or after spending a week in the hospital and thatloving feeling was still affecting you. Whomever you saw thereafter,or in a conference with many people, you would be very lovingand patient to them and then, those who you treated compassionatelywould continue spreading the love outward, also treating otherswith love. And then, those whom they had lovingly treated wouldagain spread this love to more people. The transmission wouldgo on and on, just like a drop of oil, spreading outward continuously.
The Pure Land ExistsIf The Mind Is Serene Similarly, if a person hassufficient time to practice, he would be serene within and then,his serene attitude and atmosphere would further influence thepeople he sees, the neighbors and people around him. Upon seeinghim, the people would be affected by his aura and become peaceful.They would think, "Oh! This is right! We ought to be peacefuland loving!" As the influence spreads out, many people wouldbe affected. Therefore, our spiritual practice is truly beneficial.This is simply logical, nothing esoteric or beyond comprehension.
Many undesirable things happenin the world because the people are not happy and lacking love.For instance, we often read some remarks in the psychologicalbooks or in the newspapers: Most of the more troublesome and violentlyinclined persons are those mistreated or neglected in childhood.Without receiving any love, they grew up in a bad mood and developeda negative personality. This is the cause for most of them. Now, ourmeditation centers are providing places where people can restand calm down. Sensing the tranquility, they know this place issafe. No one would annoy them, abuse them, so they become morepeaceful and calm at heart. Subsequently, they are no longer afraidor nervous, or feeling dangerous. Besides, we can also teach themto communicate with their almighty power within themselves. Gradually,they realize their real greatness, and improve. They would definitelyfeel increasingly serene and peaceful. That was exactly what happenedto you!
So, you see! Spiritual practiceis very logical! You can understand by logical reasoning. Theseplaces of spiritual practice are necessary for people to introspectand seek their peaceful corner within. This is why your livesare getting better as you practice. You are feeling increasinglymore intelligent, realizing more, you are more relaxed, it's easierto forgive others, and you are more compassionate. Previously,you didn't know the way to nurture yourself, so you felt uncomfortable,weak in both body and mind.
Miraculous EffectOf Quan Yin: Rejuvenation In Heaven above, they healwith light instead of with medicine. I think, perhaps we willalso heal illness with similar light in the future. There arealso some illnesses which can be affected by sound, say like music.This method we are practicing include the light and the sound.Many agonies and pressure minimize naturally, and eventually disappear.We are originally highly intelligent beings. However, in thisworld, 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 spendingmuch money. We just feel even more uncomfortable. Now, we havethe time to practice, and the power of light and sound that healsall illnesses, and we also have wisdom. In serenity, we can find our originalwisdom, so it is simply natural that we are becoming better andbetter.
Ordinary people, after beingloaded with heavy work, go for a rest by the seaside or in themountains for a while, if they can afford it. Then they feel refreshedand are ready to carry on with their work. However, it is muchbetter that we have a brief rest each day than taking a week offafter a long time. Our two and a half hours' meditation is oureveryday rest. Besides resting, we are also saving our life! Thelight and the sound purifies our mentality and bodily cells, etc.Therefore, the more we practice, the younger and more comfortablewe feel. Most illnesses disappear.
I have read in a magazine latelythat they are using a special sound to heal cancer. Have you readthat? They have started experimenting on it, and it seems to beeffective. Having read this news, I felt that our "contemplatingon the Sound" is really the best. Many fellow initiates,having practiced the Quan Yin Method, have gotten rid of theircancer unknowingly! However, this is only a natural bonus effect.We do not practice for healing. In another sense, we are alsopracticing for healing! Our illness of ignorance is the worst,from which many other illnesses are born.
Ignorance Createsall Kinds of Illnesses For instance, being ignorant,we would enjoy all kinds of pleasures, eating meat, consumingalcohol or even drugs. We think these will bring us pleasure,while in reality, we are ruined both physically and mentally.This is a result of ourignorance, understand? We ignorantly take drugs and poisons, andbecome ill. We suffer from disordered liver, lungs and heart,cancer and everything, all because of our illness of ignorance.Originally, God sent us here to bless the world, so the worldwould evolve, become more beautiful, as if in Heaven. The outcomeis, after we have entered this "tool" (the human body)we abuse it instead of using it to implement God's will. We destroyed this tool givenby God, so we are feeling very uncomfortable.
Master is teaching you to dothe right thing, to find the proper way of using your "tool",and to remember your mission. Otherwise, each of us would cometo this world and then get lost in material enjoyment, fond ofthis, fond of that, fond of this tool. Instead of using this toolto beautify the world, we are indulged in the tool, intoxicated.Of course the world is hopeless in this way. There must be someonelike us reminding people of their original mission, to rememberand understand that they must not be indulged and get lost inthis world, destroying the world, together with themselves. Therefore,spiritual practice is our obligation.
When an ordinary person isvery ill, he will be sent to the hospital, not only for the medication,but also for a rest. His body will then generate a resisting energyto cure the disease. Usually, after taking medicine we feel heavierand sleepy. The purpose is to let us rest more so our body wouldyield resisting power. We are cured naturally, and medicine isnot the only effective substance. Therefore, even though we arenot sick, we rest every day, taking the Heavenly prescription--theinternal light and sound, in a dosage of several hundred literseach day, [Master laughs] of course we feel better! We have restand we have the medication, naturally we are healthy and sound,physically and mentally. Therefore, the more we practice, themore we feel that it is hard to quit. We simply enjoy it moreand more, like a kid unable to quit drinking milk.
Most people have some problemor another, either physically or mentally. We might be a littletoo late starting now, but it is better than never. If we haveour own kids, hurry and give them this "medicine", sothey have no need to take that much when they grow up. Look atthe hospitals in the world, they are full of patients eating alot of meat and drinking alcohol. They are not poor people, right?They are rich people, experts in food and wine, ending up in thehospitals. Also, they recover very slowly, even when their illnessis a minor one. On the contrary, those vegetarians who lead asimple life like us can recover from illness very soon, if notimmediately. Besides, there won't be any side effects after takingmedicine, no adverse reaction. If we practiced only very recently,our systems may not have adjusted or improved so fast. We cannotchange fast enough at the initial stage of our practice, shouldthe illness be too heavy. Therefore, we are occasionally sick.If we were not practicing, the situation would be even worse.
The Light And SoundAre Vital Spiritual Food For Our Soul This light and sound is themedicine and food for our body's body and soul. It changes andrenews our body's cells. Therefore, you may observe that goodpractitioners look younger, at least younger than before. If yousee them again after a long time, their skin is more shiny andtender, as if reliving their youth. If our life is not a hustlingand nervous one, the change would be even more apparent. It isgood enough for us to practice for two and a half hours each day!We can live on. At least the pressure would not be too heavy,to the extent of half alive and half dead. [Master laughs] Notthat I need you to practice, but that you truly need to practice.I will also try my best travelling about, reminding people ofthe benefits of spiritual practice. With respect to the resolutionto practice diligently or not, it is your own right and obligationto decide. Truly, I cannot urge you, drag you, pull you, or doanything. All I can say is: the more you practice, the more youwill enjoy it, feeling the benefits, feeling very comfortable,feeling physical changes, feeling not the same any more. Really,when I come back to see you after a few years. Wow! You are sohealthy! Very different from the first time we met. (Laughterand applause.) You applaud because you understand, is that right?
Our physical body is affectedby the spiritual body and our mentality. If our spiritual bodyand mentality are satisfied with taking the spiritual food, ourphysical body would also change to become prettier. If we arementally heavy, unhappy, our physical body would also look tiredand frustrated. Then, we are restless and distressed.
Here is a very logical example:don't you look very pretty when you are happy or in love? Or,when your family is warm, comfortable and peaceful, you look cheerful,pretty and bright. When we are worrying about our job, obstructedin business, if our lover runs away, etc. or we lose in gambling,our faces will always show it. Sometimes, people would say, "Iam so mad I could die, I am annoyed to death, I am missing mylover...!" Understand? He is not dead yet, but he looks verymuch so! These are only the worldly distress, not to mention ourspiritual body if we fail to let it rest and nourish it each day. The light and sound is our spiritualfood. Without nourishment, our spiritual body would wither andbecome frustrated, upset, and then inevitably affect our physicalbody.
The Crisis On Earth The several years between 1994to 1996 or 1997 is the most sensitive period of our Earth. Manyincidents have happened. In the last few centuries, we have doneso much harm to our planet. Sometimes, the actions looked likewe were helping the world, or making the world progress, but theprice is too high! We human beings are too ignorant. Just forearning money quickly in our business, we disregarded the futureconsequence. So, now we better slow down and consider our situation,and that of our next generation and the background of the world.We have destroyed too much! For instance, we may cut down trees,but we should plant two trees with every one we cut! We can retrieveused materials for recycling, then it is all right! We may alsochange our meat diet to a vegetarian one, because meat-eatinghas used up most of the resources on Earth.
Each year, many forests aredestroyed just for raising livestock. To raise the animals andprovide beef for our consumption, forests and jungles equivalentto the area of England is being felled each year. Raising cattleconsumes a lot of water, forage, time, and land and the land cannotbe used again. After the trees are felled and the earth is trampledby the animals, you have to wait fifty years to plant things again.Also, with the trees gone, the exposed rich soils are washed awayby the heavy rain. Erosion is out of control, and the land becomesbarren and dry. There will be a chain reaction of one affectingthe other, and the destruction is not limited, but in many aspects.Pure water sources are used for animals to drink and take a bath,leaving only the filthy water for us, and in insufficient quantitytoo.
We have abused technology anddamaged the protection layer of the Earth's atmosphere. This hasalso affected our planet, Earth is getting hotter. It is hot andthere is no rain, and no shading trees. Without rain, trees cannotgrow, without trees, there is less rain. Therefore, the climateis becoming hotter and changing unpredictably. All these end upaffecting our body, affecting our children, our business, ourmentality and other aspects, and eventually affecting the moralstate of our Earth. Without sufficient food, prices would soar,many people could not afford it. Business would be bad which wouldresult in bankruptcy. Broke people would go robbing, or becomehomeless, and do evil deeds. They would even harm themselves andtheir families.
The Disaster ExtendsTo Our Descendants You would be the first victimif there were nothing to eat. Very soon, the whole world wouldbe in hunger. The consequence has already affected the children,affected them morally. Therefore, the United Nations and manycountries are getting together, resolving to kill the children,the infants. Yes! To have abortion. As the number of people isincreasing, and food is insufficient, they want to kill peoplenow. To say it bluntly, they are killing people for food. However,this is really happening. They kill infants, they kill children.It is because they sense the danger; food is getting less andthe population is on the rise. They do not change their way ofliving - to be vegetarian, refrain from cutting trees any more,and to plant them instead; stop raising livestock, but plant cropsinstead. On the contrary, they are slaughtering children. Therefore,you can see that the influence is like an iron chain, continuouslyaffecting another and another. You can't say, "Eating meatis my business," it affects the whole world, affects thenext generation, and your innocent children. You can see thisis terrible, the damage is so enormous. Now, do you still askwhy Master wants you to be vegetarian?
We have to solve this problemfrom the root. We water the plants at the roots, not on the leaves.Yes, the more we eat meat, the more we have to produce meat. Raisinganimals requires vast land area and plenty of water for the grassto grow. The more trees we cut, the less water we get; and thenthe water is used for the animals and people are left without.Without water, we cannot plant crops, so we have less fresh produce.When the supply drops, they'll be more expensive. When the populationis soaring and food production is decreasing, wars are inevitable.There will be more violence like robbery and killing--just foreating, just for food. Finally, they think of murdering--murderingthe children to save their own skin.
Previously, nobody ever eventhought of abortion, but now they try to legalize and publicizeit. I feel that the United Nations and many other countries oughtto think in a more logical manner, and find a more effective andcorrect method, instead of just killing children. If the situationpersists, it is not enough no matter how many lives you kill.Many people have prophesied in the future there are some countriesthat need to eat human flesh to survive. They have reached thestage of eating the meat of dead people. However, there is a wayto change the future, but not if they continue in this way.
Act Now To ChangeThe Future We can change, change our world.We can save our world, instead of killing others for our own survival.We should rebuild our way of life - live a moral life, be a vegetarian,cultivate ourselves mentally and physically and there will beimmediate results. Our world will be changed at once! If everybodyis planting trees instead of cutting them down, then we wouldbe saved very soon. Within ten years, the world would never bethe same, without any problem. Truly there is hope, but only withthe cooperation of everyone.
For example, you discipleslisten to what I say and you will further influence other peopleyou know. However, if that land does not belong to us, we cannotdemand the landowner to plant trees! He ought to realize the gainsand losses. This news should be propagated to the whole worldfor everyone to know. They have to believe, and they have to thinkin a more logical way. Everybody has to be united to save theworld. Otherwise, there is no point worrying about Doomsday. Weare killing each other already before Doomsday arrives. Sincethe beginning of Creation, we have never heard that wars are forkilling children! It means that our moral standard has been degradedto its lowest point.
Nowadays, if you have killeda person, the judge, the police would arrest you and put you injail. You have to compensate for the lost life with your own life.However, they are now trying to legalize the massacre, and noone seems to think this is immoral. This is really incredible!I hope the United Nations and the participating countries willkeep their minds clearly awake. Otherwise, it is really terribleto put the future of our next generation and the whole world intheir hands, and let them decide for us! Do you understand? Ifthey are not enlightened, and incapable of logical thinking, youcould imagine how serious the situation is! When there is a cause,there is an effect. God is not going to stand on one side watchingthem decide the life and death of the people, the children ofGod. God definitely would not allow it.
We often accuse others, "Hekills, he is a murderer!" Everybody would scold him, hatehim.We are also disgusted by wars, killing. However, murder has nowbecome a natural course, and the murdered victims are babies,infants. This is truly horrible! It is different if it has tobe done due to compelling situations. However, they are now doingit openly, without any urgent reason; just because the food rationsare insufficient. The babies
have to be killed simply to ensurethe adults' food ration. I hope abortion is not legalized. Tryour best to think of a way, and don't let this happen.We can write to them, in aboutthe same content of my speech today. Each of us may accordinglywrite to the United Nations, to the President of the United States,and the relevant nations. Request them to find another
solution, instead of employingthis undesirable method! Perhaps they will listen to our advice,perhaps not. I hope they will listen. Otherwise, even if we killall the children to save the adults from starving, the retributionof the karma incurred would be even worse. It is strange! I don'tknow what the people of the world are thinking. They cannot solveeven such a simple problem. I am sure most of the politiciansknow about the statistics from the books researching the gainsand losses of a meat diet versus a vegetarian diet. They havemore opportunities to read these books. They are wealthy, andthey have people to inform them, submitting the material to them. They shouldknow better than us. They are obliged to manage the country andwork for the people, they should know about these facts. It isso simple, just encourage the people to be vegetarians, and theythemselves should also change to a vegetarian diet. The worldwill soon be saved this way, not to mention going to heaven throughspiritual practice, and the incurred merits!Everyone Is ResponsibleFor Saving The Earth If a vegetarian diet can savethe world, then everyone just sacrifices a little. The politicaland religious figures have great influence and authority overthe people. They are free to use any means. They have television,radio and everything. They can talk about anything at any time.They should talk about good things, propagating a vegetarian diet,and environmental protection. This is the right thing to do forourselves and our next generation. Is that right? It is very convenientfor the major political and religious groups to do so.
We have received many warningslately. There are natural disasters and earthquakes everywhere.Furthermore, we are terrorized by killing among humankind. Humansare powerful. They could be the Buddha or they could be a demon.As a Buddha, they could save the whole world. As a demon, theycould destroy the wholeworld. Until now, we have been afflicted with many problems. Somementally unbalanced people have created wars, or inventedsome bombs, much of which destroythe wealth of the world and people's lives. Sometimes we thinka bomb is nothing, to destroy a city is nothing, etc. So muchmoney and effort is required to build a city. If the city isdestroyed, the economy of thenation is affected, and pressured. Rebuilding the city entailsgreat pressure. It is a tremendous burden to the economy of thenation. So, there are natural disasters, earthquakes, typhoons,bombs, and strange diseases. Don't say the whole world is destroyed.It is extremely disastrous if only one third or a part of theglobe is affected. The situation will deteriorate with a chainreaction.
Therefore, I hope the peopleof the world will wake up quickly. I wish you would spread themessage to everybody, telling them to save this Earth together.Otherwise, what should we do? Heaven only accommodates the virtuouspeople. If the Earth does not exist anymore, where do all thenot-so-good people go? Therefore, we must spend some effort forthe less desirable people.
This planet Earth is very precious.Should God wish to punish it, destroy it, there is nothing wecan do but to comply with His will. However, if it still can besaved, then we should save it. It's because this world is a verygood school, where many souls can come to learn and grow.
