I was fortunate to begin my spiritual practice as far
back as 1972, when I began reading books from one spiritual school after
another, searching for the ultimate Truth. I also contacted many spiritual
Masters around the world through any means possible, and studied with
them before and after initiation.
Most often, I found no satisfaction in the teachings
of the various schools and spiritual masters that I contacted. This
disappointed me greatly and gave me the feeling that something was
lacking in my life.
Then, after thirty years of pursuing the
Truth, I was fortunate enough to be introduced to the Supreme Master
Ching Hai by a friend. I quickly began to communicate with the headquarters
in Formosa and obtained some information. I also discussed Master's
teachings with some brother initiates in Kumba, and was given a
chance to be initiated into the Quan Yin Method.
Since my initiation, I have finally found the joy
and peace that I had longed for for many years. Now the world appears
to me only as a transient and illusory realm. Now, I know myself
better, and I know why I am here on Earth. I also know what I have
to do and where I am going. Thanks to the Supreme Master Ching Hai
for Her gracious presence and guidance in fulfilling my lifelong
wish!
