Introduction

The lecture in Seoul was Supreme Master Ching Hai's last stop on Her Ocean of Love Tour. Approximately nine thousand people attended the Lecture. Supreme Master, as a visitor to Korea, was deeply touched by the honor of speaking in the country, and rejoiced that there were so many eager Korean Truth seekers in attendance at the lecture, which took away all Her fatigue from the Tour.
What inspiration and direction does an enlightened Saint brings to our lives? The followings are some important topics from the Lecture.

Topics addressed

Everybody wishes for inner peace and world peace. However, not everyone can enter the state of tranquillity. That is why there are so many problems, agonies, and misunderstandings in this world. To deal with these challenges, what is the only way?
This ephemeral world is just like a mirror image of the moon in water. Let us see how Master shows us how to analyze and look upon our real nature in such an illusionary realm.
Master says, no matter how worn out and deficient the world may be, we do not have to worry. Why?
Do you know that the manifestations of our inner world, including animals, plants and minerals, can communicate with you? How do we communicate back?
Sincerity and eagerness in pursuing the Truth are the only keys to opening our almighty power, yet how do we keep them up?
What is the nature of our livelihood after enlightenment, ordinary or extraordinary?
How should we pray to God and Buddha? Most importantly, how do we listen to the answers to our prayers?
Even after enlightenment, we are often immersed in mundane affairs and forget our true nature. How do we maintain our state of enlightenment?
