In ancient times, men and women each specialized in their own areas. How is it that humans went from a matriarchy to a male-dominated patriarchal society? Offering a detailed explanation for this, Supreme Master Ching Hai suggests that men and women learn from one another and that men especially should learn to express their inner feelings.

A fellow initiate said that only after following Supreme Master in spiritual practice did he truly understand what love is. Accounts such as these allow us to witness the unconditional love of this great soul. Even at a most difficult moment, Master still only cares about others’ needs and feelings, and She helps continuously the ones next to Her. Her incredible love and modesty awakens the inner loving quality within us all.
