Highlights

Excerpts from Supreme Master Ching Hai’s Lecture:
 
Everywhere if you go to group meditation and you go through the neighbors' house or anything, you go slow, and close the door - no banging, just pressing against the door. Until you go outside the neighbor's hearing, then you can close the way you want. Did I teach you that? (Yes.)

This is the great merit of being initiated. It's the greatest thing you can ever have anywhere in the whole universe. Anyone who doesn't have it - even some higher spiritual beings - they envy you so much because you are on the road to mastership, and they are still just spiritual beings or angels or devas. They will die one day, but you won't. They will come lower, but you won't… In the whole universe, you are the best, the picked ones!
